Post-Game Talk: [x-Toronto Maple Leafs] Win 4-1

[BoredBrandonPridham]

Is that the first time in the Matthews era we have seen family and Leafs in the same sentence? Good sign.

Nah

D minutes tonight:
- Rielly 20:49
- Holl 20:22
- Muzzin 19:55
- Brodie 19:30
- Sandin 18:00
- Dermott 16:52

Keefe definitely trusts that third pairing; Sandin with solid PP time & Dermott with solid PK time as well.

I hope they start dropping Holl's numbers. He's been by far our worst Dman for most of the year. He started really well but he's been exposed. I'd like to see him get sheltered a bit more

How did Foligno do?

he miscast as a top line winger.. he was fine but very noticable that he doesnt belong there

 

[On-the-Fly]

Did you see 34s smile before he settled into the cue card prompter answer to the 97 19 milestone question?

Gotta love that smirk.

 

[hockeyes]

Not the most entertaining game but no reason for the Leafs to amp it up when they play again tomorrow.

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

Anyone miss Pierre , Vesey and Boyd ?

Engvall can still be useful. I think if we face Edmonton. We can put Engvall for a good chunk of the game just to shadow McDavid and be decently effective.

 

[Not My Tempo]

i dont understand how we clinched

vancouver can still win out and hold tiebreaker

If Vancouver wins out, that means they’d defeat Winnipeg and the Oilers along the way. Then in order for the Oilers and Jets to stay above Toronto they’d need to win games, however some of their games are against each other meaning that one of them wouldn’t get the necessary points to take over Toronto. Puts impossible for Vancouver to win out AND for us to finish with less points than the Jets or Oilers.

Its great seeing Brooks make the best of his opportunity.

I watched a lot of Pats games and thought he was going to be an NHLer. I'm liking him on the 4th line

Leafs are looking good in the Folligno era and we still have Hyman coming back.

And bogo!

 

[al secord]

used to be our 4th line with Pierre as our centre

Kerfoot looks a little Rusty

We clinched because it's mathematically impossible for all 4 of Montreal, Edmonton, Vancouver and Winnipeg to pass us. You need to consider the games played amongst themselves.

That's Riley Nash's music.

You are kidding right ?
Anyway , much to elated to start anything up , regarding the possibility of Pierre being even a iota better than Brooks or anybody on our team
All kidding as side and again this is not against this man personally
He absolutely is one of the all time worse players to ever be fortunate enough to pull on a leaf Jersey

[Ciao]

Adam Brooks looks like an NHL player.

I'm a big fan of his -- particularly for his stellar junior career -- and have been hopeful but undecided about his future in the NHL.

I'm still undecided, but much more hopeful than before.

I would be very pleased if he becomes a regular.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Kerfoot looks a little Rusty

Good one
I was waiting for this lol
How about the giant ?

Potentially yes.

Could be a excellent 4th liner

How did Foligno do?

He was so good I jumped for joy

Brooks is really good. I don't think Engvall is better then Brooks. I just think Engvall can be useful in some scenarios is all.

[therealkoho]

the only thing I will say is they are missing gallagher, tatar, drouin and price which should boost the habs a lot if they get them all back for the playoffs. Good win boys

and probably the reason the team did just enough to control the game and come out with the W

 

[Teeder Keon]

Only scenario Pierre would be useful is when he gets picked up by The Kraken

 

[Clark4Ever]

Solid overall team effort and a great game by Campbell.

Now that we've clinched, I hope we'll see some guys get rested down the stretch.
