GDT: ECSF: (A1) Toronto Maple Leafs vs (A3) Florida Panthers - GAME 1 - 8 PM EST IN TORONTO

[Snap]

Leafs staying composed not letting the Panthers rat shit draw a response. This team looks so different from years past it's weird to watch

 

[sxvnert]

From what I’ve seen we need to protect Bob

No safer place than with the concussion spotter.

 

[meefer]

Do not sit back in the 3rd. They have to score 3 to tie it up. Play as you've played and you should win this game.

 

[Stephen]

Matthews and Knies effort level compared to Marners is definitely very noticeable

Different player types and different level of devastation when he's throwing the weight around.

 

[Mike4Leafs4ever]

Imagine if Mathews and Marner start to get going? We would be unstoppable.

Lets hope they wake up by game 2.

 

[Daisy Jane]

Stolarz got hurt?

 

[supermann_98]

Or Kampf.

Robertson and Kampf, two of the previous GM's guys. The less of those guys we have the better we play, not entirely surprising I guess

 

[Confucius]

1st Leaf with multi goal game in the playoffs since Wendel Clarke? Really? Damn

I think it was in back to back games

 

[CelticDruid]

Right now Knies is the leader on that first line. Matthews playing physically BUT can't score.

Marner still thinking about his new hatchling.

 

[al secord]

Tell Mcmann to build up steam lean on their D and “slip” into Bob

I said "pardon?"

 

[DirkStraun]

If Bennet doesn't get a suspension then just put in Reaves next game and have him take Barkovs head off. Sick of this double sided coin that is NHL player safety. If they won't do it then take it into our own hands.

 

[Stephen]

Florida gonna goon it up now

Leafs need to keep pushing the pace and get their licks in the last minute when it's out of reach.

 

[ruaware41]

ngl "and Matthews shoots wide" is starting to sound a little like Phaneuf or Rielly shoots wide.

Idk what's going on but he needs to figure it out. I guess it doesn't matter if Nylander plays like this

 

[Commander Clueless]

Imagine if Matthews still had the Matthews shot....

 

[sxvnert]

florida goonin up now that they are

Panthers always take a piece. Either on the scoreboard or with injuries.

 

[RomanianLeafs]

Imagine having Liljegren Holl and Brodie on the right side haha

 

[wingman75]

Didn't love our start to that period, but it evened out as it went along.

Getting a cheapie was great! Take it a run boys.

Bennett just continues to confirm what kind of pos he really is.

 

[Legion34]

f***ing rat Tkachuk tried to start something at the end

Give him a penalty. If they play between the whistles I like torontos chances much better than if they allow shenanigans.

Physically (without reeves) I guess they match up ok?

They have tkachuk. Bennett. Nikola? But beyond that who?

Toronto has domi (middleweight). McCabe. Benoit. Knies I guess?

 

[Jojalu]

I'm in England right now so cannot watch the game. What happened to Stolarz, and does anyone have video of it?

Bennett give him a forearm shiv to the head.

 

[ITM]

Matthews and Knies effort level compared to Marners is definitely very noticeable

New dad. It’s a thing.

 

[Leafsfan74]

This game needs more Engvall

 

[fahad203]

This is why berube is not a fan of Kampf
Dude doesn't want to engage

Patches just runs through you

 

[crump]

Tanev man, what a signing

Straight up mutant. On top of his defensive play he gets a goal tonight. His defensive IQ is incredible.

 

[ahmedou]

Lets hope they wake up by game 2.

They won't. It's physical. Marner is an NPC
