GDT: Game 47: Toronto Maple Leafs vs Montreal Canadiens 1/21/23 7:00pm EST CBC, SNE, SNO, TVAS, TSN 690

[The Great Weal]

This lineup would still beat the Leafs in a playoffs series

 

[red devil]

They'll focus on the figs

So far it is about the Canucks

 

[OldCraig71]

The Leafs aren't going anywhere. A 39-year-old Giordano is being relied on to steady the ship on D and Matthews and company can simply go on cruise control at any time. They haven't learned anything or gained any killer instinct.

Dubas loves him a top heavy roster with depth and defense being "whatever you can find" in too many instances.

 

[sampollock]

Hurricanes will wind up getting kane

Teams will be constantly pushing the pace around him.

 

[The Real Timo]

How is this game tied against a decimated lineup?

Leafs are in the playoffs mode

They have zero elite players with grit

 

[Tyson]

The more talented team is having a hard night against a team that is out working them. I always appreciate hard work and determination.

 

[sampollock]

Bunting

 

[sheed36]

Why wouldn't the Canucks let teams talk to Horvat about an extension before any trade? I figured a signed Horvat would bring back a better return. Oh yeah I forgot, I'm talking about the Canucks here so nevermind.

 

[The Real Timo]

Chris Wideman.

 

[sampollock]

I wonder what the talk is on the HF fig board

 

[sheed36]

What did they say about Caufield's potential extension. I never heard the numbers?

 

[Milhouse40]

Hell of a period.....Let's not do that again.

 

[sampollock]

What did they say about Caufield's potential extension. I never heard the numbers?

They wondered if he will pass Nick's contract

Hell of a period.....Let's not do that again.

Come out in the third get seriously aggressive fore check like a wild man

All we did in that second period was turn up the intensity and like clockwork the Leafs backed down and gave up. I have never seen a more fragile group than Matthews and company. It's like they get scared when things get tighter. If Xhekaj hits one of them it's game over for them.

 

[sheed36]

I wonder what the talk is on the HF fig board

The refs.. The refs.. C'mon refs.. The refs.. The refs.. Kerfoot needs to go he's terrible..

Yeah that should about cover it.

 

[OldCraig71]

What did they say about Caufield's potential extension. I never heard the numbers?

19 million a year for 8 years!

They're so arrogant and cocky that's why they don't care

 

[red devil]

What did they say about Caufield's potential extension. I never heard the numbers?

Marek said it will be interesting if the Habs use Suzuki's 7.8 million as a ceiling for him or if Caufield may go above that number. So no new information.

 

[sampollock]

The refs.. The refs.. C'mon refs.. The refs.. The refs.. Kerfoot needs to go he's terrible..

Yeah that should about cover it.

Yeah that sounds about right why blame the forwards

 

[Hannibal]

Leafs in peak performance! Playoff ready

 

[Tyson]

Why wouldn't the Canucks let teams talk to Horvat about an extension before any trade? I figured a signed Horvat would bring back a better return. Oh yeah I forgot, I'm talking about the Canucks here so nevermind.

Man it's mind blowing watching how Vancouver is operating.
Signing JT Miller until he is 36 at 8 mil which makes their Captain an impossible to sign. Treating a veteran coach like they are.
What a friggin mess.

 

[The Great Weal]

Josh Anderson quietly on pace for over 25 goals and this is in a bad year by his standards. The guy is more than capable of being a 30-20 player, just doesn't have the consistency or willingness to do so with a bottom 10 team.
