It's only game one. I'm not ready for the #FireCooper memes.........yet.

Watching the rangers and penguins series makes me sad.

Reaves has done more in one shift than maroon all game.

So… I missed basically all of last night’s game in the hospital with another concussion. I remember seeing 1-0 and 4-0 and that’s it. What exactly happened?

Only Cal Foote showed up.. thats all you need to know

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

not enough

Watching Colorado just dismantle the Preds, the one thing i noticed they do that we dont is shoot shoot shoot shoot, they spent 95% of their PP in the Preds zone and just shoot, not always on net but they kept shooting and always got to the loose puck to keep it in. Why cant we do that?

 

[Hoek]

Well the reason we didn't do it last game is because we couldn't get the damn puck in the zone and set up

Hey, not here to say jack about the series other then gl, but saw a couple posts in the G1 GDT early about the anthem singer that I cant quote because the thread is done, just wanted to say cool, ya, she does really belt it out. Martina Ortiz Luis, she won a talent search for a new singer at like 16 years old or something stupid. I'd normally skip the anthems on PVR or something if I could, but its spine-tingling still 4 years or whatever in. If she can do the anthems for the next 40 years give or take until I'm in the ground, that'd be fine.

Maroon May be the worst on ice player in the league

I think it was in the late stages of the 2nd or 3rd period, but one PP (not the Hedman turnover SHA goal?) Kuch took lole 3 rocket shots and Stammer and Heddy had one as well, Toronto look jumbled. Luckily the puck stayed in the zone with the misses but they looked good on only that PP cause Kuch was actually shooting, everyone was

just play point stamkos and kucherov together. the second line isn’t gonna score much either way so might as well try to get the most out of our big guys

 

[JFleegs]

Haha this is gold

I wondered this as well. Majority of the offense was carried by two players last hear (kuch and point). Why not try to get that Kuch and Point magic working again and have the 2nd line be a shutdown line?

Wasn't there a handful of Paul - Point - Kucherov shifts?? Could be something

 

[OurlordAndSaviorKuch]

Stick with Stammer,Point and Kuch and then put Paul And Hagel together because that was some magic last night.

Bunting, who came in for Clifford, didn’t exactly eliminate the undisciplined bone headed plays

 

[DistantThunderRep]

So Bunting isn't getting a call for the nut shot? Add it to the list of new good hockey plays.

 

[DFC]

If the Leafs over-react and play us soft, they're playing right into our hands.

 

[VinikToWinIt]

I've come to the frightening conclusion that Leafs-bashers may be more annoying than the Leafs themselves.

*shudders*

 

[Rschmitz]

Toronto's coverage and transition game is dog shit. They are incredible when the puck is on their stick once they get past center ice. Cooper should easily be able to game plan around this.

 

[GoBoltz56]

Why are we even playing more games? I thought Toronto won the cup after game 1?

 

[DistantThunderRep]

Question, was 2022 Baby Jan born health and safely? Hopefully we have a new strong disciple of the Apostle, Jan Rutta.

Yes, if only our approach was as successful as Colorado's...
