GDT: ECSF: (A1) Toronto Maple Leafs vs (A3) Florida Panthers - GAME 2 - 7 PM EST IN TORONTO

[Racer88]

Nylander showing Matthews how to score in the playoffs

Right but it sure doesn’t look like Matthews gives a crap

 

[DarkKnight]

The forechecking game is night and day between the Leafs and the Panthers..

Looks the same to me.

 

[Lightsol]

An entire defensive sequence caused by Matthews watching a puck drift until a Panther grabbed it. Two steps and he could have gotten it out.

 

[mcleex]

Woll couldn't even control a simple shot. Did you see that juicy rebound
I have zero faith in this guy right now sorry to say

 

[MSZ]

These guys play like it's the preseason.

These guys play like it's the golf season. These are the days they're normally playing at the golf course.

 

[TonsofPuppies]

"Top" line stinks as usual 5v5.

They stink on the PP too.

 

[HockeyMad68]

There’s something I thought I’d never see a Mapleleaf tied for first in playoff scoring

 

[pcruz]

Whoever gave Willy his lead skates to start the game should be fired.

And whoever found his real skates should get a promotion.

He's night and day a different player when skating vs not.
Quite possibly the wildest swing of any player in the league.

 

[DarkKnight]

The down 6-2, losing the series crowd, go for a walk ffs. Geezus.

 

[stickty111]

Willy is amazing where’s @ACC1224 and the boys

lol

 

[PhiladelphiaKessel]

God this wouldn't be close if Marner and Matthews were at the level we expect them to be

Disappointing but expected, move on from Marner and hope Matthews is just playing injured. Not like he ever carried even when healthy tho

 

[The Shadow]

Matthews

 

[Leafy Undergrowth]

Marner can't even make simple passes anymore.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Weird game man. Doesn't feel like either team is playing well...

Leafs are but Woll is not.

 

[MarMarSab3]

First line is not playable

Knies Matthews Domi
Patches Tavares Nylander
McMann Laughton Marner
Lorentz Holmberg Jarnkrok

 

[Racer88]

Will is the best player we have right now

 

[Torontonian]

Looks the same to me.

Fla is consistently hammering the D and creating turn overs along the wall, Toronto does not come close to the forecheck FLA has

 

[SprDaVE]

It's a wee bit frustrating so say the least. The second line has absolutely stepped up though

It's so frustrating to me.

 

[crump]

Nylander is on Fire. Pacioretty is dominant, after sitting out months it’s taken a few weeks, but they guy is money right now. Mitch and Matthews need to kick it up, damn we need them to be elite

 

[Metroid]

Willy is amazing where’s @ACC1224 and the boys

Willy is MVP so far. I'm here. I still like Marner. Just not as much as Willy so far ;-)

 

[colchar]

mail it in time of the year for those 2

Well they aren't getting paid so...............

 

[theTTC]

Panthers can't quite handle the Leafs so it's ours to lose - I'm looking at you Joseph, Matthew, and Mitch. C'mon, boys.

 

[LeafSteel]

Can someone get Samsonov’s dad to call Will and yell at him?

Couldn’t be worse than it is now.

Shocked at the apparent complete lack of confidence that Will is playing with right now.

 

[Stephen]

So Marner's a new dad, and congratulations for real life stuff, playing like he might be tired. It's understandable. But why is Matthews playing like he recently gave birth? He's so sluggish and out of it.

 

[DarkKnight]

Fla is consistently hammering the D and creating turn overs along the wall, Toronto does not come close to the forecheck FLA has

We've been great there this series lol.
