Series Talk: ECQ: Boston Bruins (2-0) Toronto Maple Leafs. Well. We can Win at Home. We Have to.

I think 1 as well but wouldn’t be shocked if it was 2 games

I think the fact that Wingels fell before Kadri hit him will save him from a longer suspension.

[BigGulpsEh]

So Hyman on AM's wing the whole year without fail, and change it up now?
And worse, put Komarov there!?

I really hope Leo isn’t with AM and Willy in game 2. That would be a colossal mistake.

Babcock is clueless. He’s aiming for a first round exit in 5 years out of 7 with the way he coaches.

Dubas can’t become GM fast enough. He needs to get rid of Komarov, Polak, etc. Take all his toys away.

Babcock will just find a new Hyman/Polak/Komarov.

 

[MattySnipes]

Way too much trust is being shown to #47 from Babcock. It's getting really sad. Way to take off the only guy who scored our lone goal and put black hole Komarov on instead, who can't do anything - not even body check anymore, instead he just lets opposing players lick him.

 

[LeafsNation75]

Okay, what does that have to do with anything I just said lol

Using the example you said about how Kadri could have come in and roughed up Wingels or tried to fight him, I think on Marleau's penalty which lead to the 2-1 goal the ref could have easily called Nash for roughing based on how he took Gardiner onto the ice.

 

[fahad203]

Interesting combos. I don't think Komo will stay with Matthews line for too long

I would love to see Jhonson with decently skilled players. I still think that 4th line will get killed against the Bruins
Rather see Brown on the 4th line with Pleks than Jhonson. Otherwise that line is too soft

 

[7even]

I'm getting sick of Plekanec on this team. The best thing I can say about his game is that he's physically in attendance and sits on the right bench.

Yeah sure... but Nash didn't fly in and try to take off Gardiner's head. My point was that Kadri could've defended Marner without taking a major penalty and getting suspended.

Komarov up with Matthews and nylander. Everyone wants to see Matthews away from Hyman here is our chance

His play on the Pastrnak goal was disgusting. He lost his man twice in the span of about 10 seconds. It didn't even look like he wanted to be on the ice. Give his icetime to someone who wants to play for us.

Classic case of be careful what you wish for...

But Komarov?

 

[Walshy7]

I’m very afraid we are resigning komarov. Babcock will obviously fight tooth and nail for him to be back. If Lou feels even remotely the same way as babcock we are in big trouble next year.

 

[ACC1224]

Komarov moving up was expected, the Hyman shift I didn't expect but I like it.

Was just thinking the same thing

 

[Walshy7]

But Komarov?

Forgot the

 

[Liminality]

So I understand what Babcock is trying with the Komarov move. Even if the offense does go lower, you've got to try and stop the bleeding against Bergeron's line.

If Komarov can take Marchand off his game even a little, that'll help hopefully.

Need Marleau to step up big time in that role, hopefully Hyman provides a lot of energy to that line.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Komarov moving up was expected, the Hyman shift I didn't expect but I like it.

Expected because of Babcock.

 

[The List Of Jericho]

So Hyman has his best game maybe of the season and is rewarded by getting demoted lol. I don’t even like the guy and think that move is BS

 

[Maple Leaf]

Komarov up with Matthews and nylander. Everyone wants to see Matthews away from Hyman here is our chance

Should be AJ or Kapanen higher in the lineup and Komarov on the 4th

 

[ShaneFalco]

I guess they needed a man on the first line

 

[SprDaVE]

I don't mind those lines overall to be honest. I don't like Komarov getting bumped up but I understand the logic behind it.

Our fourth line will probably able to dominate though, and that is very good news.
