This could be a long night....

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

A mental midget? Where do you people come up with this ****? Did you see the save he made on the first breakaway where Hymen turned Staal/DeAngelo into traffic cones?

It's like some people don't even watch them game.

I would argue those who come up with these statements can't handle the emotion of watching their team get scored on, which makes them the mental midgets.

What about the guy that can't handle the emotion of someone criticizing his favorite player? Cmon now, pot, kettle, black, etc.

 

[BB58]

of course, staal pairing

 

[trilobyte]

Hank!

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Staal didn't understand what he was supposed to do on that sequence.

 

[Loff]

Dis be brutal.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

This defense absolutely blows.

 

[Drew4u]

I was wrong about the defence. Terrible

 

[Alluckks]

Lundqvist looks good - y'all are nuts

 

[Dr. Ogrodnick]

Handing out grade A scoring chances like candy. Looking at you staalangelo.

 

[NYR]

Just because you can move a puck doesn't mean you can defend.
Get used to this folks..

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

We look like games in EA where you know tilt is happening

 

[LieutenantLackluster]

This is legit terrifying

 

[justanomade]

What is going on? They look like a seond division norwegian team out there.

 

[Alluckks]

Staal is still a black hole and the communication looks choppy out there - communication can be sorted out

 

[trilobyte]

Leafs forwards so quick and aggressive on the puck. Impressive play by them.

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

One of the worst defensive performances I've seen from this team.

 

[NYR]

Weak sauce

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Just because you can move a puck doesn't mean you can defend.
Get used to this folks..

Soft and can't defend. We are going to need Skjei to step up big time this season because we know Staal won't be playing any defense, and despite what some say, Shattenkirk and DeAngelo won't either.

 

[Irishguy42]

It would be a miracle to survive this PK unscathed.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Nash-Chytil-Zooks have played less than 90 seconds

 

[Abooch68]

This defense. Wow.

 

[Dr. Ogrodnick]

Who knew Stepan and Girardi were the lynchpins?

 

[nevesis]

Lundqvist looks good - y'all are nuts

It's only those who look at the end result (puck behind in the back of the net) and not what actually transpired before that.

The game is too quick for some people, and by the time the replays come around, heads are buried in phone/computer keyboards to come up with a snarky response.

 

[LeetchisGod]

Can't play run and gun hockey against teams with more talent.
