GDT: Detroit @ Leafs at 7:00pm April 13 2024... on CBC and SN.. Matthews goes for 70

[PromisedLand]

well they got Riemer, they have a 4-1 lead, I mean its April, I still feel good about this one

 

[Notsince67]

How is it that Bieksa is the only one on the panel who can dress?

 

[Suntouchable13]

Ah okay thanks, any idea when the sched comes out?

I am guessing probably the day after the regular season is over. Probably on next Thursday.

 

[Niagara Bill]

Sammy is NOT able to be trusted. Enough is enough. Head issue, leg issue, shoulder issue, who cares. Take off the pads.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Keefe seriously shouldn’t leave Samsonov in. He’s done that before to let him try and battle through it and not once has he successfully battled back.

 

[cyborg]

Oh crap,now we have to watch trap hockey for 2 periods.

 

[AcerComputer]

Samsanov throwing away his career against bottom feeders in meaningless games is hilarious. Enjoy the Senators next season.

DET is 1 point back of a playoff spot and fighting for their lives. For DET this is their playoffs and the Leafs have nothing to play for. Tough spot.

11 AAV



Imagine what we could have done with that kinda cap space

Tavares has had an excellent career.
But now his reaction time has slowed and his hands are gone.
So, how can they win in the playoffs with him as your second line centre?

 

[93gilmour93]

It was 4-1

 

[stickty111]

It is actually somewhat refreshing going into the playoffs with the expectation that we will get cleaned out. No expectations that this year is different lol it is worse!

I have heard we are guaranteed to go to the conference final according to a poster, so I think we are okay

 

[HamiltonNHL]

I'd send Samsonov down to the Marlies for one game, see it it reboots him again.

 

[Cleetus]

Florida and Boston right now lol

 

[Suntouchable13]

Leafs need to get focused again. Stop playing so loose. Help the goaltending out. It's a week till the playoffs, time to get into the playoff mindset.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

It was 4-1

Reimer was our goalie for that game !

 

[DarkKnight]

When you check the Leafs game...

 

[NastyKnies]

No talk about that dirty piece of shit hit

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Goals against

Road: 110 (*7th best)
Home: 139 and counting (*5th worst)

Why are we so trash at home

*Edit: oops slight adjustment. My screen was too small (and it didn't seem right with SJ and ANA not visible lol)

 

[notdoneyet]

I know Sammy has been mostly great for awhile, but ... he's just so sketchy, I never really feel confident with him in net. He's so often out of position, over committing and scrambling.

Woll is just so much better positionally, so much more calm and controlled, doesn't over commit. I have a lot more confidence in him, wish Keefe would give him more reps, he's played too little since returning from injury to get fully back up to speed for the playoffs.

Sammy hasn’t been great. It’s like always we out score our problems . Sammy has a poor save percentage and goals against average. People look at the number of wins yet we win by out scoring the other team and Sammy gets a win with a .875 save percentage

I put my eclipse glasses back on.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Yeah I'm sticking with UFC300 tonight lol, good night and good luck.

 

[Aashir Mallik]

I'd give woll the next florida game and if he plays exceptional I'd start him for Game 1

he was actually able to somewhat keep up with Bobrovsky when he got to play a full game. He's also been really good against them the other time he played them this year

 

[Maple Leaf]

Agreed. My guess is after the shakey game on Thursday, Sammy gets a chance to have a solid outing. If he does, he is rested until game 1. If he is shakey again, he will play one of the two in Florida.

We need him right for game 1. Or a right as he can get.


Said no one, ever.

I could care less if he gets 70... it's cool and all. Leafs winning playoff rounds and a cup is the only thing that matters to me. And I don't care who is on the roster when they do it.

Yea but the Leafs have a better chance of getting Matthews 70 than winning playoff rounds

 

[mikeyz]

I have heard we are guaranteed to go to the conference final according to a poster, so I think we are okay

Lol. Gee. I wonder who said this.

 

[genk]

Samsonov back to his old tricks.

 

[Leafsfanperson]

How is Tel Aviv having a better night than the Leafs?
