Post-Game Talk: Canucks 3 Leafs 2

[TheBeastCoast]

Got lousy goaltending again, but not going to win much only scoring 2 goals and no 5v5 goals.

I mean if we got competent goaltending tonight 2 goals would have won us this game.

 

[rdogg]

Nothing like having below average goaltending every night

 

[Jojalu]

i have to argue against the “deserve to win” they missed point blank chances. The game was there for the taking. This has been the leafs problem all year, they are not finishing scoring opportunities. Point, Blank, Period.

Wrong. If the arguement can be true that they deserve to lose when they win, there are legit times they deserve a better fate.

Vancouver didnt even deaerve to be in the same building tonight

Nucks had no business being in this game.

Trash franchise.

Habs had no business being in that series, but here we are

It is us, that's the Trash franchise

 

[Zybalto]

With the sheer amount of bad puck luck and crap reffing, certainly as "good" of a loss as it gets.

Highest Corsi for on the year.
Highest shots on net on the year.
2nd highest expected goals on the year.

Scoring chances: 42-20
High Danger Chances: 19-5

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Has it though?

I mean we were out goalied by Price and Kirpisalo

Getting "outgoalied" happens so often I'm beginning to wonder if we ever actually did solve our goaltending woes that have plagued us since the 04-05 lockout. Stretches of brilliance from the likes of Andersen, Campbell, hell even Reimer for a short while, before inevitably shitting the bed when it matters most.

 

[Confucius]

All in All guys played well and were the better team, victimized by some bad bounces and a couple of miscues. Very entertaining game. Guys pushed hard most of the game. Playoffs are coming.

 

[Jacquestrapless]

Kerfoot to the 3rd line
Mik to the 2nd
Holl out, Dermott in, Lily to 2nd pairing.
That's what I would do next game.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Goals 2 and 3 weren’t bad ones on Mrazek… the first one is arguable at best.

 

[Pi]

The nonstop whining is about to start so I'll just say that this is the first time the Leafs have lost back to back in regulation since October and say good night.

It was an absolutely dominating game but if you have to pick one way to lose, I'd rather lose like this.

 

[Carltons Cup]

It's nice to see that Vancouver has more leafs fans than Canucks.

Even their own fan base can't support them.

 

[theTTC]

Nucks had no business being in this game.

Trash franchise.

We lost to them. You mean us? LOL

 

[TheShape]

Annoying game, felt like one of those nights.

We haven't had competent goaltending in 2022.

 

[Stolie the Goalie]

If neither goalie gets the job done this season, both should be gone in the offseason.

And which goalies do you bring in as replacements?

 

[Havoc]

D man

I'm 50/50 on which. Wanna see some muzzin-lil sandin-holl before committing fully to D over top 6 winger

 

[Dangles McGavin]

Goaltending cost us, but the Leafs were quite relentless. I'm okay with how the team played.

f*** the autoplay ads on the mobile version of this site.

 

[Aashir]

The leafs drop under tampa now for third place

 

[Azail]

Honestly, good game from the Leafs. Just one of those games where the puck didn't go in. The Leafs had a ton of chances they fired wide as well.

I don't see much reason to worry after a game like that.

 

[zeke]

Nice game deciding call refs.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Leafs were averaging close to 5 goals a game in the 9 games prior to the loss in Calgary. They were due for some bad puck luck but still sucks after completely dominating tonight

Goaltending could bail out the offense once in a while...

 

[Leaffan1991]

Marner gets so rattled when he makes a mistake,after that big whiff he just couldn't stop making mistakes. He's mentally fragile unfortunately, when he's confident the kid is magic.

 

[stickty111]

Lots of chances but not much finish.

That means we should get more gritty players that can hit right?

 

[Carltons Cup]

We lost to them. You mean us? LOL

We completely outplayed them. Did you not watch the game?

 

[MSZ]

Annoying game, felt like one of those nights.

We haven't had competent goaltending in 2022.

The team haven't had competent goaltending since 2004.

 

[ToneDog]

If they have any aspirations of finishing 1st or 2nd, losses to sad sacks will cost them. Otherwise no big deal. Get your sh1t ready for the playoffs.
