GDT: Around the League - 2021/22 PART III

[Dragao6]

Florida is really good but them beating up on a bad team isn't really that convincing to me.

What's more convincing is their 8-2-1 record against Washington, Tampa, NYR, Colorado, and Carolina

Funny enough half of their regulation losses have come against bad teams - Seattle, Ottawa, LA, and New Jersey

Unlike us losing to the worst team I. The league when they were short handed lol?

they should really shorten regular season and increase play offs with play in rounds

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Taylor Hall just scored to give Boston the win OT against Nashville the top team in the West..

Bruins have now won 8 of their last 9 games.

I am sure you couldn't be more excited about this! Your team is winning some games.

 

[Mess]

B's win, their 8th win in the last 9 games
FLA has won 7 of their last 8 and has points in all 8 games
TB has won 4 of their last 5

The Atlantic Div is a real battle ground and not a lot of room for mistakes where you have to play at .700 hockey pace or lose ground.

 

[garce]

You just knew Marchand was going to score shortly after you were criticizing him.

No doubtgreat player. But as bad a diver as there is. Edwards maniacal homerism was more my focus.

 

[Mess]

I am sure you couldn't be more excited about this! Your team is winning some games.

My team needs to beat St Louis tonight.

Boston went 5-0 with their 5 games in hand on the Leafs and now the standings are getting tight.

I was hoping the Leafs gap on Boston would be > 10 points by the time Rask returned from injury but we're sitting at only 3 now.

Leafs opposition playing at high level should be a motivating factor for Toronto to up their games as well.

Colorado would like a word. Also, Nashville is outperforming their mediocre underlying numbers, so won't be long until they're back fighting for a playoff spot.

Leafs are:

3-1-1 in their last 5 (.700)
6-3-1 in their last 10 (.650)
10-3-2 in their last 15 (.733)
14-4-2 in their last 20 (.750)
18-5-2 in their last 25 (.760)
21-7-2 in their last 30 (.733)
23-9-3 in their last 35 (.700) aka full season

 

[All Mod Cons]

Imagine having our best season, with what many consider the best ever team we've ever assembled and finishing 8th in the conference.

The East is a tough beast. Leafs have to be underdogs against any opponent when the playoffs roll around.

 

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

I am curious what would make you prefer Carolina over Tampa Bay. It is at best a wash...and Tampa being 2 time defending champs probably edges it in their favor.

We play Tampa well, Carolina's structure causes issues for us.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

We play Tampa well, Carolina's structure causes issues for us.

I will take Freddy over Vasi in 7 games.

 

[22Brad Park]

If they want to pass us and finish 3rd and face Tampa Bay in round 1 all power to them.

We do ,Bruins have had way with them this year

 

[Kurtz]

Leafs are:

3-1-1 in their last 5 (.700)
6-3-1 in their last 10 (.650)
10-3-2 in their last 15 (.733)
14-4-2 in their last 20 (.750)
18-5-2 in their last 25 (.760)
21-7-2 in their last 30 (.733)
23-9-3 in their last 35 (.700) aka full season

Always amusing to me how Mess is a ghost on these boards when the Leafs are playing well, but when we lose our first game in regulation in over a month, he's all over the boards with the out of town updates.

Oh well, at least most of the Lou/Islanders truthers on this board have mysteriously disappeared this season.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

The Blue Jackets down 2-0 to Florida 5 minutes in. I look forward to the race for 9th. Maybe the Isles will go on a run. Oh wait they lost again too.

 

[Stephen]

Florida laying waste to everybody...

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Columbus destroyed Carolina 6-0 two nights ago, and now they're already down 4-0 in the first against Florida

 

[All Mod Cons]

Jeez. We need to avoid the whole Atlantic, Carolina, Pittsburgh and Washington in the playoffs.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Jeez. We need to avoid the whole Atlantic, Carolina, Pittsburgh and Washington in the playoffs.

Just move to the Pacific. Only fair thing really.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Just move to the Pacific. Only fair thing really.

I'd love that. We'd be fine until we hit Vegas.

 

[Jojalu]

I'd love that. We'd be fine until we hit Vegas.

Leafs are 2-0 against Vegas this year

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Leafs are 2-0 against Vegas this year

Ehh the first game was against their AHL team

 

[All Mod Cons]

Leafs are 2-0 against Vegas this year

Coyotes are 1-0 vs the Leafs, but they'd be my ideal choice

 

[leafsfan5]

Wtf is Florida’s offense

 

[Jojalu]

Ehh the first game was against their AHL team

Still counts. Lord knows if they had lost it would have been the end of the world

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Wtf is Florida’s offense

Cheat mode at home

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Panthers have scored 54 goals in their last 9 games since the extended break
