Elder looks like he’s 68 years old tonight.

 

[Superstar]

That's quite the Spezial hatty!

[ottomaddox]

spezza for p.m.

 

[TopChedder]

This is throwback Jason Spezza tonight.

Vintage Spezza!

 

[Warden of the North]

I can't remember the last time we had a scorer like Matthews. We've had good players and good scorers, but he's simply different

I think hes the best scorer in Leafs history.

Not joking.

 

[Bellefour20]

Spezza is Daddy

 

[rdogg]

Leafs are carving the Canucks up! Love it

 

[robertmac43]

[The Man with a Plan]

When was the last time a 4C had a hattrick... gotta be a long time.

 

[ottomaddox]

time to go to the vancouver board...

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

We need 2K back, put him on the cover of 2K22

 

[Gary Nylund]

I dedicate this game to all the haters who say Andersen never outplays the opposing goalie. This one's for you.

Mogilny. As much as I like Matthews(althoug, I am very critical) there was always that fear factor with Mogilny I had that I havne't seen in any Leafs or feel that way

Mogilny even in bad games, always could do something. People also forget how physical Mogilny was

 

[mcleex]

LOL imagine getting walked by Spezza at this point of his career. Man Nucks defense is GARBAGE

 

[saffronleaf]

love the spezza laugh!

 

[danron1376]

if only jim hughson was doing this game. would like to see his tears

 

[Leaf4Life]

Gotta love that smile

 

[bansheebeat]

actually, everyone gets icing.

 

[Gallagbi]

Honestly, we haven't in my life-time (I was a kid in the Gilmour captaincy era). We've had players play at his level, but never a pure goal scorer like him.

I'm a similar age and I really don't think it's close in my lifetime

Even with the 50 goal guys, they didn't score like he does where it looks to drive them and like they expect it to go in every time

 

[Budz]

It’s really hard not to like Spezza. Effing beauty.

 

[Griffin76]

Wow he dummied Edler on that one.

 

[Alerion]

f*** Babcock

 

[frizzer1]

Babcock wud have benched him

 

[uncleben]

Just the best
