GDT: Around the League - 2021/22 - Playoffs edition

Wtf is a wrong with people...

That's horrible. Some people take sports way too far. Hope he's okay.

Dreger, this morning, said that Flyers are looking at Tortorrella.

Also, mentioned that a number of Bruin players were likely "celebrating" when Cassidy got fired.

I made post in round 1 that nobody takes serious that Tampa has perfected the art of skillful cheating in the playoffs. They recognize what refs are willing to let go, and cash in on it. When you bring up consistency and compare what a team got called for versus what tampa got away with it, in most cases you will agree Tampa executed the penalty better / in a way the odds are lower they get called.

Three rounds deep now if you think I wasn't onto something you're just blind at this point. It's a skill that can take you far in the playoffs. Just a very smart team overall starting from the coach.

It’s not cheating, a better term might be Hockey IQ.

I know the Jet have had referees attend camps and give pointers to the players.

Leafs should do the same.

TRAIKOS: Did Bruins fire Bruce Cassidy because he was winning too much?​

 

[MSZ]

They are the new Boston.

Probably better than Boston.

 

[Nineteen67]

The guy should give basketball a shot, and also get off our team.

The trouble is they have no one to replace him with on the right side. Liljegren, but that’s another set of problems.

 

[Kurtz]

Probably better than Boston.

No probably about it. Boston won 1 cup. TB won 2 in a row and I think are about to win their 3rd, which I think qualifies them for Dynasty status.

Ok Kyle you got me. The Leafs are The Bestest Team in Nation. Analytics prove that.

Naw, he just clarified your pointless post to drill it down to the Leafs vs TB.

 

[Nineteen67]

Reading this, I can already hear the cryfest,

"We don't want our players getting hurt!"

"Our stars shouldn't fight"

"That's what Clifford is for on the bench!"

Good on Laf though, 20 years old and he showed more courage there than the sum of Matthews/Marner/Nylander have in six years.

Matthews finally understands that physical play is required and it’s OK to take a suspension.

He probably should be careful until he signs his next contract and if he signgs with a contender, he should turn into Batty Matty

Fire the PP coach.

It’s Keefe

Explain to me what he is trying to prove with his obsession with analytics. Is it that the Leafs are just as good or better. If that was the case the Leafs would still be playing. One thing analytics will never show you is having the killer instinct that Tampa has.

Explain to me what you are trying to prove with nothing to back anything up but opinions and stats that don't even apply? He wasn't even using analytics. LOL He was using counting stats.

His first post was goals for and against as well as expected goals and expected goals against. It tells to just as much as my point was with PP%

 

[RomanianLeafs]

So should Kyle still has to take some notes from the rangers how they are destroying tampa after the first 2 games???

 

[Lightsol]

Holl's is so much worse than this. Paul doesn't even really touch him either.

Holl fully runs into the guy

Actually, the Tampa guy ran into HIM.

That’s also part of Champions DNA or knows how to win.

WCF while beating the Pens and Canes.
What pisses me off the most is the fact that we have such a talented team and they just couldn’t do it. They played okay but none of our guys really dominated like Mack, Makar, McD and Drai with one leg.

I think the attempt to provide better analysis is a great idea.

To me it just seems expected results for the completed game should be reflected in the results.

If the expected results are not reflected in the results I guess that sucks, but it has no bearing on the next game.

Hopefully he's still analyzing their first two series wins.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Hopefully he's still analyzing their first two series wins.

Hopefully not the Pittsburgh series where they got badly outplayed but faced Spicy Pork & Broccoli in net, who gifted them the series

ECF after barely beating the Pens and Canes both playing their #2 and #3 goalies***
