GDT: Flames @ Leafs | 3.21.16 | 7:30 on TSN4 | Clash of Tanks

[Leaf Lander]

R we winning games now


Why

 

[Nithoniniel]

The difference is lack of pressure.

No, you attribute the difference to lack of pressure, and it's just a guess.

You really should try to find your way back to your level-headed self, MB, because lately you mostly just seem interested in low blow-remarks about Bernier.

 

[LeafsNation75]

You guys getting the Flames broadcast?

Sportsnet West is blacked out for me.

 

[Apotheosis]

Because they are? Who wants to watch a panel agree with itself for 15 minutes?

Not my point. You can divulge into different points about prospects. Like Button had to talk about how we need "big Left wingers" when Dubois has actually played over two thirds of the year at centre and flourished there. And Bob's insisting on Juolevi was clearly forced. Even if people agree on the same point, there's multiple perspectives for someone's choice.

 

[johnny_rudeboy]

In today's NHL, you can never have too many guys at the back who can move the puck.

Well technically you can, they even call it "To many men on the ice".

 

[Nithoniniel]

Because they are? Who wants to watch a panel agree with itself for 15 minutes?

The problem is that it seems they way too often want to agree, but have to find reasons for another choice. And that's on the ones deciding on the topics.

 

[FlareKnight]

With Bernier? Yeah lack of pressure. The other goalie now is Sparks who has been ok but not great. The shadow of Reimer is gone so that's helping him.

For the rest it's mostly the young guys. Fresh in the NHL, lot of energy and adrenaline. Haven't hit that rookie wall yet so they can roll over teams that are taking the Leafs lightly and with Bernier being a wall right now that'll let them win games.

 

[hamzarocks]

nice save on Johnny Hockey-TM

 

[Apotheosis]

Well technically you can, they even call it "To many men on the ice".

You know what I meant Johnny!

 

[Wendelstache]

Starting this period on tank mode, lots of turnovers.. Can Bernier just fake a groin pull?

 

[Leaf Lander]

Wtf guys?

Why are they playing good now. I didn't put up with a whole year of suckage just to be beaten by Winnipeg in the stretch run...

Nylander is awesome tho

Oh and Bernier looks like he's back to 2013-14 form

Leave it it the leafs to win when the heat is off

Send the kids down n let the fans be rewarded with a stud player better then all current leafs
Who are playing tonight

 

[johnny_rudeboy]

You know what I meant Johnny!

I do


And I agree.

 

[as Pure as Evil]

theres just to many extra refs/linesmans now. they are always in conflict with the play

 

[Cor]

Bernier looks good.

He always seemed just a bit out of position, but it seems he fixed that now.

If he finishes strong in the last 10-11 games, maybe he will be back.

 

[LeafsMonster]

Haha 2 man adv.

 

[Liminality]

Wow nice chance by Rielly.

 

[p.l.f.]

gotta score here

 

[stakesishigh]

Well hopefully they can take advantage of this one.

 

[Apotheosis]

Rielly, so close. And now he takes a penalty.

 

[Celly Hard]

**** you berny

 

[LeafsMonster]

All the luck is on our side now

 

[p.l.f.]

Stop it bernier

 

[Apotheosis]

How didn't that go in!?

 

[Liminality]

Wow not sure how they kept that puck out.

 

[FlareKnight]

Bernier looks good.

He always seemed just a bit out of position, but it seems he fixed that now.

If he finishes strong in the last 10-11 games, maybe he will be back.

I don't know. Anyone can get hot and play well for a run. It'd be nice if he was back to being really good next year, but equally likely he's back to being "oh the first shot went in again" Bernier too.
