No, I said if Clarkson doesn't make an excellent snipe, Kadri is pointless. I'm saying Clarkson made that goal happen with his shooting, not Kadri making it with the pass. He basically gave it to Clarkson hoping he could do something, and he did. That doesn't make Naz a playmaker and it doesn't mean he's driving the offense. For so long the excuse used for Kadri's poor play has been his poor line mates, so with Clarkson being responsible for another of Kadri's few points this season i find that ironic.

So Kadri did basically nothing on this goal? Just gave it to Clarkson?

Yup, he only made a nice move to rush past the defenseman who was covering him, gained the zone and made a beauty drop pass leaving David Clarkson all alone to take an uncontested shot.

The commentator at 00:37 literally says and I quote verbatim here, "and it's Nazem Kadri who makes this play" :laugh:

He's a young kid trying to make sure he has a job. Personally I loved his game thought it is exactly what we want Tyler Biggs to play like. Would love him on the leafs.

no setting up plays and giving pucks to people doesnt make you a playmaker

Need that type of player on the leafs so we don't have to see Holzer get punched 6-7 times when hes on the ice

I would be ecstatic to have him on the leafs. Have him flanking Kadri and Komarov, people can't do **** to that line. If he were on the leafs, we would all be praising that beat-down. He's not a straight up goon either, he can be an effective player. I'd give up a gardiner caliber player for him

Clarkson also has to thank brutal goaltending on Holtby's part there.

The Washington defenseman totally screened his own goalie on that play. I play goalie occasionally and it pisses you off when your player stands directly in your line of sight and stands with his hands out trying to block the shot, instead of closing the gap and pressuring the shot.

Long story short, that was not an easy save to make.

The Leafs won. The Habs and Sens lost. You can't ask for a better night than that as a Leafs fan GLG!

A well earned two by the boys in blue! I hope Komy is ok.

Nice job boys! Good to see a strong start and keep it going. Bozak is on fire lately, makes me happy with all the heat he takes about *not being a number one centre * Keep it going boys!!! Go Leafs Go!!!

Great game by the Leafers. Not so great for the refs... Was happy to see at least one get punched in the face. Kadri's interference call was a joke. Phaneuf led into Bernier early on... no call. Gardiners stick slashed out of his hands with a golf swing.... no call. Komarov blindsided without the puck... No call. Are you kidding me? Ovi is lucky Leafs don't pack the 4th with goons anymore.

Don't forget the high sticking call on Robidas. OV was so low a "high stick" would've went over his head by about 2 feet.

It really does amaze me that the Leafs draw such ire from people. They have taken 7 of 8 points and played a solid game last night YET people want to bring up the shots on goal. The power play went 3 for 4 after being 1 for 23 YET people want to bring up the 37 shots allowed. They allowed less than 25 in the previous 3 games and the Caps have players that will shoot from anywhere BUT lets harp on ANY negative we can find.

well no pre game thread

people make a big deal about buffalo and nashville
but good run before that with the sens and even boston

then following that up with beating THREE "good" teams and even getting a point out of pittsburgh

you can say the Leafs are pretty decent
