Yes, me and Bobby Mac...I would rather be on the side of Bobby Mac, then an HFBoards poster who is obsessed with taking shots at the Leaf players. I've spent a ton of time cheering for Nylander and Peterssen who are prospects for teams I hate...

Speaking of...wow that Nylander snipe.

I’m obsessed with taking shots at Leaf players?

Dude, get over yourself. I say good and bad stuff about all kinds of players. I’ve been on these boards since 2006. Who do you think you’re kidding? If I’m posting in a lot of threads, and you’re only seeing me in the Leaf ones, does that mean I’m just in the Leaf ones?

There is no agenda. I haven’t liked his play. Next game he could look great, and I’d say as such.

There wasn't a single noticeable, glaring defensive miscue I've noticed from Liljegren all game. Or another D really, thought he put himself in a bad position on the penalty but it was a soft call that was a bit embellished/poor luck (could have been a footing issue with the Czech D- easy to catch in slow mo, looks incriminating in rela time).

He's engaged a few times on his man on the boards and has played zone solidly otherwise. Never lost his man or got out of position, was in decent position to provide puck support. Nothing that screams awful, poor, or great. He's been good exiting the zone when his team has won possession, just never happened really in the 2nd . Just not sure what your seeing that I'm missing here. Keep in mind, I've literally been watching him with a microscope the last 2 games specifically.

And you’re taking a personal interest in it.

Again, I’ve already said why I haven’t liked his play. The only reason I’m still talking about is it’s apparently something some of you guys are taking it personally.
 
Swedes play a pretty structured defensive system. Their defense and powerplay are the only things they have going for them

I have a personal interest in Liljegren as a fan. I don't take any hockey discussion personally as a insult, as I know the realities of being a fan of the most polarizing fanbase/franchise in the league. Helps to have perspective as well.

Nor was any of my posts targeted at you, to be frank, I haven't even read your previous post so I have zero context to speak on. You were the one who quoted me. I offered a reply, because you tend to be a reasonable, frequent poster on these boards otherwise. I just saw a handful of posters (not you actually) say Liljegren looked awful which makes me question if we're watching different games.
