Who dished that pass to Johnny H? 55?

Actually I think it was McDavid

RNH I thought?

 

[MMANumminen]

Argh the stream went down

 

[Leafidelity]

Really hope this game isn't decided by a flukey goal

 

[HanSolo]

Eichel has looked terrible this whole time. This guy is severely over rated.

Still plenty of time to get it together. He only has one season under his belt. I keep making the Getzlaf comparison but it took Getzlaf years to get to superstar status. Eichel's only what...19? 20?

He'll be fine.

 

[Johnny HFBOARDS]

No one knows... lol

It was a sick dish.

 

[ItchyScratchy77]

That's definitely not the problem. He's basically a body builder on skates. IIRC he trains with a body building relative of his during the offseason, and is jacked. He's 6'0, 240 of solid muscle so that's why he looks big

Wow. 6 foot and 240 lean is huge. Unless crazy genetics are in play, that's tough to obtain naturally.

 

[hamzarocks]

damn so close

 

[Divine]

Come on Schiefele...

 

[snipes]

Come on Scheif!!

 

[HanSolo]

Holy crap Chef. Hit the net.

 

[Hemsky001]

Sheifele didn't give a single f....

 

[Hennessy]

Man, you guys are crazy. Czechs looked great to open the game, but since then it's been all NA. Unless you subscribe to the Patrick Roy school of letting a team outshoot you while camping in your zone all night as something to strive for, NA has been the team pushing the play. Nothing says the Czechs can't hold their lead, but they're doing a good job of giving NA the chance to tie it or worse.

 

[snipes]

Chance after chance for NA. You got to think one is going to go in here soon.

 

[HanSolo]

Couturier shot without aiming lol.

 

[jj cale]

All of a sudden we are seeing massive breakdowns by the czechs.

 

[Aladyyn]

Damn our defense is so bad

 

[ijuka]

The most random breakaway I've seen.

 

[ijuka]

First breakaway then 4v1... I guess I shouldn't have called the Czech defense good.

 

[Johnny HFBOARDS]

Larkin(he's showed nice speed) with Chef, Finally!

 

[Jablkon]

Better loose this game and test some things than win it by defence. We have some gaps there...

 

[LeafsNation149]

Just got home, how's Matthews and McDavid been?

 

[Frank the Tank]

Czechs getting tired as the game progresses. As would be expected with the jet lag they must have.

 

[HarrisonFord]

Wow. 6 foot and 240 lean is huge. Unless crazy genetics are in play, that's tough to obtain naturally.

What I find crazy is how fast he is, considering how heavy he is

 

[HanSolo]

Just got home, how's Matthews and McDavid been?

Matthews showing some good hands, good chances, a few decent defensive plays but nothing spectacular. McDavid has looked good on the powerplay but a fair amount of rushes ending with wide shots 5 on 5.
