GDT: ECSF: (A1) Toronto Maple Leafs vs (A3) Florida Panthers - GAME 2 - 7 PM EST IN TORONTO (Mod warning, Post #70)

Bennett “Turtling”

 

[Leaf Fans]

Leaf fans act like Bennett took a full speed run at Stolarz from centre ice. Yes he hit him but every game has worse contact than that. You are just unhappy with the outcome.
The bottom line is that the Panthers are going to keep pushing the envelope and the Leafs better push back.

No, I don't. There is nothing wrong with crashing the net. No need to make things up.

 

[All Mod Cons]

This is Matthew Tkachuk against the Leafs when he played for Calgary. A reminder to the Leafs what type of people they are dealing with. Play your game and protect your goalie.

That's absolutely crazy he just drove his knee into the goalies head. How many games did he get for that?

 

[notbias]

Domi put up more of a fight than the Canadiens, that's for sure.

Also, he got jumped... not sure he wins against Bennett regardless, but he only got a single glove off.

 

[TD Charlie]

I kinda wanna see what sort of chaos would ensue here, if Bennett actually did a Bennett thing rather than bump a goalie as he’s gingerly going into the crease

Since we're sharing YouTube clips, these are always awesome to rewatch









Crazy how much Tkachuk loved getting his ass kicked by Kassian, almost like a weird BDSM relationship.

I'm not sure what you're talking about. I started watching hockey in the mid-1970s. There have always been fans complaining about how dirty a particular team is, even in the 70s and 80s when it was commonplace in the game. Then those same fans will defend their own team's players when others argue they are ditry players. It's just standard stuff. It's like whining about certain teams diving or faking injuries or complaining to refs...whatever, it's all the same. I think it's all irrelevant.

Me too
started watching 1971
never ends
but some teams cry louder

You are in your 60s or 70s?

In the interest of the league protecting the heads of goalies, he wasn't even given a penalty if I recall correctly.

We’re now at calling for suspensions for falling down, should be a good game tonight

Wonder what minor physical contact will have the city in tears after this one

No seriously? Why the f*** is it with open house on Leafs players in this league? Why does no one ever get a suspension when they're targeting a Leaf?

It's really strange that they don't just throw a few token gestures their way for being one of the league's drivers in revenue.

And then they go completely overboard the other way and suspend Leafs players for overzealous amounts of games. Instead of 1 it's 2. 2 it's 4, etc.

Just really weird.

I watched this live pal, watch it again, with objectively.

Maybe just you. Not we.

 

[Strangle]

Panthers can be all proud of their antics on the golf course by next week

Is that code for an illegal elbow to the head?

 

[Just Rude]

Hey, if we're posting videos of Domi getting jumped from 2023, why not something a little more recent? Like, March 2025?

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Is that code for an illegal elbow to the head?

I’m sure whatever happens that’s what you’ll be calling it regardless

 

[Divine]

Is that code for an illegal elbow to the head?

I thought it was code for PED’s

Weak response. There are many folks here who present themselves as fans of other teams, but spend most of their existence on this forum being in Leafs discussion threads bashing the team and fans. Meanwhile you won't find a Leafs fan here who has dedicated their entire account to hating on the Habs, Bruins, Sens etc for example. Being an obsessive hater is almost always a worse look than being a crazed fan.

Very much this. Also, Leaf Haters are probably one of the biggest fanbases in the NHL lol.

 

[REALTALK81]

You miss the Bruins from the early 2010's?


It's easy. The Panthers have gone to the Stanley Cup 2 times in a row, and play physical. Therefore, you don't like it.
But if and when the Leafs get guys like Kadri, Domi you'll defend it. It's ok, just fandom.

Kadri got kicked out the series at game 2. How many series has Parros's former team been kicked out of? Is it not a handicap if one team can go head hunting while the other will get kicked out of the entire series?

Why would he call it that regardless.
