GDT: ECSF: (A1) Toronto Maple Leafs vs (A3) Florida Panthers - GAME 3 - 7 PM EST IN FLORIDA

[Jyri]

Love the way Marner backchecks.

 

[Coffee]

Marner 1mph backcheck

Marner gave up back checking. Had he actually skated he likely catches the Fla player driving the net.

Superstars don’t back check

 

[sampollock]

Cutthroat was all excited because Keith wasn't on the bench then he walks back and they almost start to cry

 

[Puikiou]

LMAO! Nylander just BAILED on the puck after seeing a Kulikov hit coming

 

[suddeninterest]

This series and edm/vegas are excellent. Not a single goalie performance over .900 so far you love to see it.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Looks like Marner gave up on the play?

He started to change.

 

[sampollock]

Superstars don’t back check

We know that nostrils doesn't

.900 is the new .925.

 

[Clode]

Leafs stopped skating

 

[Ice9]

Type of play you can dig deep and draw out when your team has tons of DEEP playoff experience…

 

[Leaf Fans]

Love the way Marner backchecks.

He is excellent.

 

[Strangle]

The difference in a series between 3-0 and 2-1 is massive

Lots of game left here

 

[Ratsreign]

I forgot I’m behind the action (f*** commercials, lol).
But hell yeah ! New game go Benny go

@Oilslick941611 just to get back to you on that broken stick thing, I just spent several minutes perusing the rule book and couldn't find anything that would allow the referees to award a goal or penalty shot for that broken stick play. What "should have happened" is, perhaps theoretically, that playing the puck with the broken stick there is called as a minor penalty, except he touched it with the broken stick... which would have resulted in the play being blown dead, and the fact that the puck went into the net afterwards becomes irrelevant.

What an odd situation. The right thing by the spirit (but not the letter) of the rules happened with the goal being awarded, but it appears that it technically should not have counted, if I'm interpreting the rules correctly and not missing anything.

 

[gn2007]

TNT just wrote leafs have no shot on goal this period yet scored a goal lol failure of a graphic.

 

[Matty Sundin]

Florida pretty much needs to win this, not suprised they coming on. Leafs been in games like this and crumbled. Time to see if they learned finally

 

[sampollock]

The Florida right isn't doing very much

 

[sansabri]

leafs looking really good. so weird, not used to this

 

[syz]

Wonder if Tkachuk would still go so hard at 4 Nations if he knew it'd result in him basically having to be a cheerleader in the playoffs.

 

[JKG33]

Dont know how thats not too many men

On a delayed penaly the play dead once the puck touches Woll right?

im surprised theres a provision for playing the puck in the crease with hand/palm, but the same rule is'nt applied to a piece of illegal equipment essentially creating the same situation.

 

[Orfieus]

Toronto simply cannot handle Florida forecheck, if Barb plays .900% hockey from here on out Toronto losses the next 4 games

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Luxmore is painful to watch.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Yes. it is the definition of a too many men penalty.
