GDT: GAME #11 | CANUCKS vs LEAFS | THURS, FEB 4 @ 7PM EST | SCOTIABANK ARENA | TSN

[Bellefour20]

According to Canucks media/fans, Demko is a lock for Team USA

 

[Canada4Gold]

seriously, he's going to get suspended for that hit, but no penalty?

He won’t be suspended because the Canucks next 2 games are against the Leafs

 

[All Mod Cons]

Anyone know if Dermott has been traded for Bennett?

 

[Zybalto]

It’s a 5 if they are down in the game, and 2 if they are up. Unfortunately the leafs had already 2 PP that period, and 3 penalties called if you count the AM goal. I still donno how you can’t call that a 2. You can see the one ref looking like “ugh man, I don’t wanna be the guy who gives them ANOTHER PP”. But you have to call that. Every call has been right so far except that non call

The problem is that looking like "the guy who gave another one up" is not nearly a bad as "the guy who allows hits that can end careers.".

game management>player safety in this league.

 

[Critical13]

How are we only up one f*** can we please just bury a team?

 

[OVO16]

Bogosian a physical presence

Yes him too.

Injured after 1st shift.

[Cynical]

I wonder, are the Canadian refs just not good at their jobs? It's not even about consistency this season, it's just a lot of bad calls.

The Leafs are consistently at the bottom of the league in penalties drawn and this has been going on for years now. The refs are doing a great job of following their instructions.

 

[Stigma]

Ray sounds like he's on a CB

O-Dog's head has either expanded or his face has shrunk

I'm not sure which name I hate more: Brock or Thatcher

Thanks

 

[supermann_98]

O-dog really gotta cut back on the cheeseburgers

 

[zeke]

Yes him too.

Muzzin wiping out dudes in the corner with one arm all period.

They showed the play where he got hurt (or where they assumed he got hurt)

 

[Maplebeasts]

May have to do with the dual use of the acc/scotia bank arena with the raptors

I used to believe it until this year. They have the surface all to themselves and it still looks bad.

 

[HockeyVirus]

I feel like Simmonds needs to respond in the 2nd. He was brought in for 1 reason first. We have enough scoring forwards. We need a message sent that you can't hit our guys like that.

 

[supermann_98]

How are we only up one f*** can we please just bury a team?

If the refs called the game correctly we'd have a 5 minute PP and it would be over already. George Parros isn't even gonna review the play most likely

 

[moon111]

Looking at the Leaf's power-play, can we give some credit where credit is due with the improved coaching staff?

Don't miss Babcock or his assistants.

 

[Notsince67]

An idea for refs

 

[Melo Meds]

Spezza has an absolute beauty slap shot. Wish he would use it more often. Credit to Hyman for that screen as well. We could have easily had another goal or two in that period.

 

[IPS]

Hyman has honestly become a beast in front of the net. one of the best in the league.

Bogo was right there and should've at least grabbed a jersey and face wash that scrub Chatfield pos ... Should've been handled right then and there

 

[Leafs at Knight]

We should really be up more than 1. Hopefully we don't start playing some defensive trap game with no offense now, which has happened a few times this season when we have a lead.

He has always had a cannon.

Overall I am pretty happy with his play. Solid player to have on your team.

 

[Notsince67]

His new name is sackman

 

[Gallagbi]

He's off his angle because he's trying to looking around the screen.

That's the point

He's actually well off his angle before he even looks around Hyman. Once he shuffles to look it just got ridiculous.

If he's centered and looking around Hyman to the middle he would have been in fine position

Bad Angle + Bad look + Wrong side choice did him in
