I have to say I usually try not to be too hard on Justin Holl. He gets way too much flak and is a decent bottom pairing defenseman when deployed as such (which admittedly rarely happens and makes him frustrating in a top 4 role that Keefe loves him in). Also, he had a really good game overall.


But when he tried that toe drag in OT....I wanted to reach into my screen.

And then what? Buy a ticket and tell him yourself?

Matthews vs Stamkos in a slap fest. What was the all about? Matthews took it upon himself to keep the area clear by picking up sticks so his teammates wouldn’t trip over them during the mini brawl and Stammer took offense to his thoughtfulness?

In a series, there are always a game or two like this usually go to OT. You have to win those games to advance. Leafs usually lose them. Not this time. Held firm and gutted out a huge win.
The late tying goal convinced me. Win or lose, that was heart, the stuff you need to get through these wars. Winning it was huge too of course, but, they had me at sticking it out to tie it up late in a game they got outplayed in for 40 minutes.
did he forget his password again?
Who cares. Don't know who this dude is but we've met him a hundred times.
 
Sure but you know if they decided to take out their whistles it wouldn't have been to call a Tampa penalty. Good teams battle through adversity, right?

I have no complaints how it all worked out. The process was bad the results were great.

From what I saw it looked like Stamkos losing it on the ref that they're trying to injure their best players and then grabs Matthews and starts feeding him jabs...

If that's not instigating, while basically telling the ref you're going to do it as payback, I don't know what is.

Pretty sure that's why Keefe was so hot afterwards.

Lost so much respect for Stamkos there. What a prick and a coward.

Why? Matthews has a clear size advantage.

:laugh:

tbh marner can look as crap as he wants as long as the points keep coming.

He reminds me of Stamkos last year against us. Stamkos wasn't impressive when he wasn't clapping the puck home, but his goals helped Tampa advance whereas we went golfing.

What I DON'T want for sure is Marner owning possession with authority but nothing on the board to show for it.
 
We need some of our heavy weights to teach Matthews the basics of fighting.

Matthews 208 pounds.
Stamkos 182.

Dude has size and weight advantage jest needs to know how to throw a few.
