GDT: Around the League - 2021/22 PART IV

[stickty111]

Shesterken allows 5 goals in the 2nd. Thats not going to help his cause and will put Noodles in a bad mood. You know he wants a non Leafs player to win it so badly. He's probably Matthews' biggest competition.

 

[stickty111]

I dunno I thought they said they would be big players in free agency?

Maybe they'll be trying to retool .. they have enough picks to trade leverage for sure. Will have to dump some contracts though.

They are likely going to be big players for Kadri. They could ruin their good work with that kind of huge signing.

I don't see how it matters. Home ice means jack shit. Tampa didn't have home ice till the final (I think) and they still won. I'd rather drop into the wild card and face the Canes or even Florida.

Its not guaranteed we face Tampa at all. In fact, Toronto/Boston could finish 2-3 and face each other in round 1.

We're 1 point behind Tampa and Boston is 2 points behind them. Boston plays tampa on thursday.

Im hoping its Toronto boston in round 1.

Fine, anyone but Vasi. I'd rather face Freddy, Bob, or Swayman. That's what it comes down to for me.

Was just going to say this.

Florida is running away at the moment but these 4 teams all play each other a lot the last month. You never know.

It's very possible if Leafs catch a little fire here they could be home ice against Boston. That would be the ultimate revenge.

I'm all for it.

Let the 2 Florida teams beat the shit out of each other. Or better yet Florida and Tampa could possibly both get beat out in the 1st round depending how the Metro goes. That would take Washington going on a heater and Tampa dropping though.

Like I've said many times. I'd rather face Tampa. Either Leafs learn how hard tampa competes including their superstars OR they beat Tampa gain confidence and win it all

That is my preference

 

[BertCorbeau]

Pretty clear that there is no easy way out of the first (or second) round .. So just saddle up for a tough, on-paper matchup. Besides, this team has shown the ability to beat easy or tough opponents in the last 5 years despite coming close

Maybe a tough matchup is what they need. They play based on the competition.

who is not going to be a tough matchup? seriously?

 

[ToneDog]

Andy beating the lightning 3-1 with 10 minutes to go. If Bruins beat lightning Thursday and we beat NJ tomorrow, lightning will be 4th. I'll take the Bruins.

 

[PromisedLand]

DAMN Freddie putting on a show against Tampa

 

[ToneDog]

He's no Mrazek. Bad trade by the ShanaGang.

 

[zeke]

Looks like the Bolts are about to lose their 5th in 7gms and go 4-6-0 in their last 10.

They play Boston next, with Boston only a point back.

 

[leafsfan5]

please give us Boston in round 1

Leafs in 6. f*** the Bruins

 

[leafsfan5]

Montreal

 

[ANDI P IS CUTE]

JUST want Jack to be 1st half Jack, Muzz healthy. I just want them to win one round. Or dubas is gone, hopefully shany and briere too.

 

[saffronleaf]

lets go stars!!

 

[zeke]

Dammit Fred don't you dare choke this one

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Damn teuvo tervainen did work there

They are getting beat by Andersen. Must really hurt you in the feels eh?

 

[zeke]

Phew

 

[zeke]

Carolina dominated them tonight.

 

[ToneDog]

Dammit Fred don't you dare choke this one

Freddy wins again. Tampa and Carolina would be a hell of a series.

 

[Superstar]

Vegas down 2-0 against Jets heading to the 3rd period...oof!

 

[DcW]

Kucherov is such an idiot
