[Thrasymachus]

Clutterbuck scores on a breakway with Matt Martin??

is this real life

 

[Rubi]

Awfully quiet here tonight, must have been a tough loss

Leaf fans have all left.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

I can’t remember the last time I watched a ref called a misconduct on someone for *****ing about calls.

Hate when refs try to take the game over.

Is the game almost over ?

Could be short sightedness, or what, but if Toronto trades Kapanen and keeps Nylander they're dumb.

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

There’s too much damn red in this Calagary/Red Wings matchup. Not helping that everyone in the stands is red also.

This is a color blind persons worst nightmare.

Have to give Martin a lot of credit for rejuvenating the chemistry of the 4th line. It's been money this year.

 

[koyvoo]

Leaf fans have all left.

No one has even mentioned the fact that Matthews has 1 goal in his past 12 games yet either.

It’s not over but when the refs give the other team 4 power play opportunities and then a 5 on 3 on an iffy at best complaining about calls misconduct call, it’s pretty easy to be upset as a fan.

I think he is playing hurt

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Isles play a text book defensive game. I am telling you folks, if they make the playoffs they will frustrate high flying offensive teams making them a team you do not want to play.

True. I was just seeing if it was close to the end. I find officials just send people off for any little thing at that time.

 

[sheed36]

Carey Price was carrying a .945 sv% in his past 8 starts coming into this game and made 34 saves on 35 shots tonight.

 

[koyvoo]

I think he is playing hurt

In all honesty I do too.

It was all in the first period. Coyotes lead 1-0 at the break.

What's crazy is with the standings being as close as they are, there's the possibility for a Leafs/Islanders playoff series. That'd be fun.

Was the official Tim Peel ?

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Uncle Leo is so dependable defensively. Showed it there on the last shift. The analytics community hate him but Trotz loves him.

 

[BHD]

That Orlov/Niskanen pairing is fun to watch when they're in the offensive zone.

 

[Thrasymachus]

In all honesty I do too.

On the other hand, idk what the hell is wrong with Laine

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

3 minutes left and the Capitals have 2 shots on goal in the period. That’s some pretty good domination by the Isles.

Caps look on their way to a 4 game losing streak. Pens and Caps are faltering while the Bluejackets and Isles are surging.

Isles in first in Metro if CBJ loses.

 

[The Winter Soldier]

Got to love Trotz's faith in Matt Martin, out there with the Caps goalie pulled. You would have never seen that with Babcock.

 

[sadpanda]

I don't know actually. I have given up on him this year. Hoping for 900 goals next season instead

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Forgot how late these games are the past week for me. These west coasters are miserable.

The Bluejackets game is over so the Isles are in first place in the Metro.

Who would have bet on that before the season? Almost 50 games in. Insane

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

It's amazing how some Leafs fans always go to the injury excuse when Matthews is slumping.

Maybe, just maybe he's a player that isn't consistent.

CBJ already lost. Go isles, I guess?

 

[HuGo Sham]
