Post-Game Talk: CAPTAIN MORGAN!!! | LEAFS WIN 4-3 IN OVERTIME

[MarnerElite]

Let's not forget Keefe's brilliant plan in this OT. Make the other team really tired by letting them pepper us with shots while we're mostly standing around and blocking/stopping them...Eventually we get going a bit and they ice the puck...Rielly shoots it upstairs from the point and we win...

 

[Metroid]

Way to much sharing but good luck anyway

I was trying to be funny,.not share personal experience. Hahahaha.

 

[TheShape]

On the technical side, Samsonov was an absolute disaster, reminded me of Reimer in that every save was an adventure but he battled and got the job done. Props.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

How can you possibly want Bunting out after watching jarnkrok totally disappear against top defence assignments? Bunting back on that line will open it up more for Marner

I like Bunting....but I feel like the target on his back isn't going away anytime soon. It is a liability.

 

[Notsince67]

I never want to hear about Vasilevsky's playoff non-loss streak again. Eat it, Tampa

Leafs denied him a tie with Hasek in playoff win. Hold the line!

 

[Stephen]

Gutsy as f*** win, Tampa was playing great but we ground it out, f***ing love it!!!

Also, I wasn’t sure about the ROR acquisition, but good god was he wrong. What a warrior, clutch as f***. I’m gonna get the Arnie treatment from “Junior” just so ROR can get me pregnant.

Too much information but yep! That man's level of bar play must be at elite levels these days.

 

[OVO16]

63 hits and they call the Leafs soft lmfaoo

 

[Future]

That one feels better than game 2. Tampa was at their very best, we were not. We still found a way courtesy of ROR, Knies, Schenn, Rielly, and Samsonov in the end.

 

[Optimist]

Tampa has to win 3 out of the next 4 to advance. Easily could have been us. Huge win!!

Keefe's "plan" rivals master strategists like MacGruber

 

[Cleetus]

Now that's a face only a milk carton could love

f*** he looks like 1992 Luke Perry to me right now, im so happy

 

[GojuLeaf]

Is this this cores first playoff overtime win? I feel like they always lose in OT

 

[Lightsol]

That was all Luke Schenn. Leafs were playing stupid all OT. Every single one of them.

Then Schenn comes out and cools everything down with the nice shot-for-tip. Leads to the faceoff that ends the game. Tampa's momentum died after Schenn's play because the play almost ended the game.

Actually, I think it was the Holl shot off the post just before that. Before that series, the Leafs were looking for the fancy goal. After that, they just started throwing pucks at the net. And sometimes, that's all you need.

 

[horner]

Morgan, Matthews, O'reilly and Sammy were great

Everybody else sucked tonight

Hate to be Debbie downer I need more from mathews.
OReilly on the other hand wow he brings it
OReilly teach Mathews, Marner and Nylander that fire you have in your belly

 

[Clark4Ever]

Samsonov earned his playoff right of passage tonight. He stole that win for us.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Sammy is the 1st star of the damn season. Wouldn't even be close without him.

Yeah. That second period

 

[Racer88]

I was trying to be funny,.not share personal experience. Hahahaha.

Ya never know so I went with the polite somewhat sympathetic response.
lol

 

[MSZ]

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

I want to see even more blood next game. Let them go through the series of surgeries in the off season. Point was bitch.

Honestly something about the way point looks pisses me off...

 

[Antropovsky]

Outside of Sammy, Matthews, Knies, ROR and Schenn, this team did not deserve to win this game

So so happy with the W, mostly because I doubt we see another effort that poor. To win you need to steal games you don’t deserve.

Oreilly is all over the ice and usually can be found standing in front of the net, blocking shots, or peeling himself off the ice from a hard fought puck battle. He doesn't have a visor because he doesn't want anything stopping him from using his face to move the puck should his arms are tied up.

 

[ECanuck]

That was a win on pure will. Things were not going well but................still made it to the finish line.
This one felt good!

 

[NinjaKick]

Knies is a future superstar

 

[Crazy Monkey]

Didn't deserve to win that but f*** YAH!

ROR, Willy, Knies, Schenn, Sammy were awesome tonight.

Matthews just looks meh to me. He needs to find that next gear still and break through

 

[danron1376]

we had too many games where we dominated OT only to lose. nice to be on the other side for a change. have to shape up next game or else we lose the series, though.

 

[horner]

Is this this cores first playoff overtime win? I feel like they always lose in OT

I think the 1st time TB lost back to back games.
