Interesting games this week. I'm looking forward the most to Friday vs Carolina but Buffalo's fighting for a playoff spot and they always play us tough so should be a good game as well.

This game is marked on my calendar for another reason, our last game is April 13 so tomorrow being March 13 marks the beginning of the last month of games. I've been somewhat disinterested last few months, some games have been interesting depending on the opponent but some games I haven't really been paying close attention to. Now however is when the games get more interesting because the playoffs are so close. So the question is, will this team stop f***ing around and start playing like a team serious about winning on a regular basis or will there be a number of stinkers like the losses to CHI twice and VAN? I really hope that this last 17 game stretch shows a team ready to buckle down and play playoff hockey, we'll see.

he left early because he was announced starter to give him rest and all.

He started the last game didn't he?

That's a long time between starts for Samsonov, I'd have thought they would just alternate starts between them until the next b2b
 
One reason why I'm guessing Murray is in. They want Sammy for Colorado so then they go back to Murray Friday so he doesn't play in Ottawa Saturday. I think that would be a recipe for disaster based on how the Sens are playing and the potential volatility of crowd. Could be completely wrong though.

Maybe. Unless you are one that believes you need to face your demons in order to get past them. I would hope Murray would be desperate to play against his old team and give them the finger with an outstanding game.

Also, it will be a Leaf friendly crowd in that arena. Unless those are the volatile crowd you’re talking about. Lol.

I like Murray starting this game. Maybe not of the majority...but he is a good goalie; and trying to get in a groove. Play em consecutive to get that starter 'feel' and see how he responds.

Some guys have a hard time getting into a rhythm, when in a tandem or backup role.
 
I am seeing this Red carpet before the Oscars with all its agendas and mayne.... The nose would look so knitish there. If he gets some actress on his hook in the future. We might see him with Pedro Pascal on the carpet, period.

"We are going to use both guys," Keefe promised. "Sammy is not quite at 100 per cent right now, either. It just makes a little more sense for me to give him a little more time and give Murray some more consistency in the net."

I think you know what the answer to that question is already.

Hey Keefe:

Since our games now seem like they are Exhibition games for you to figure crap out between now and the Playoffs, how about you try playing Liljegren on the PK and the final few minutes when you are protecting a lead?

You know, to see if anyone else in the Galaxy other than Holl can do it.....

Just a thought Keefer. Might be even more useful to use to figure out than the All-World genius 11/7 configuration you've been trying to pass off as coaching......... :)

Go Leafs Go!

I shudder to think how bad Cooper is going to make Keefe look.
