[34]

Leafs missing half of the team and still winning. With the back up in net as well.

You're using an anecdote to argue for a much larger sample size. Although it is close to Thanksgiving, so those of us with families should use this to prepare

Nah. Just being realistic. The nfl is the same way. They’ve effectively taken all big hits out of the game. It’s only a matter of time in the nhl with the new “fans”

There is no need for big hits. Just hit the guy hard enough to seperate him from the puck.

Calling a faulty argument realistic doesn't make it a solid one. Sorry you have a problem with "fans."

That’s exactly what whitecloud did.

God I’d love to see the Leafs score here and then end the game with a Knight getting a nice Sami Kapanen hit and crawl to their bench

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

That’s exactly what whitecloud did.

Bull. That was an unnecessary hit. Half as hard and le loses the puck

It’s almost like the NFL with its repeated head contact has had an epidemic of tragic deaths in their alumni that have resulted in much needed changes

Lol. You said “hit him hard enough to separate him from the puck”.

That’s exactly what happened.

Classy

 

[Pablo El Perro]

While we're bitching about officials, did anyone warn Nylander for that jersey tuck?

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Knies got rocked in the head? Karma to Toronto?

Was it as bad as reaves who physically just made a 30 foot charge at a guys head and didn't even attempt a body heck? Nobody else around. Nothing that could have been avoided at the last minute.

Or was it not as bad

 

[Bounces R Way]

Hills been a pretty shitty goalie overall, we should have shipped him out instead of Logan Thompson.

Yeah, Hill v. Woll has been the difference. Otherwise, pretty even.

Hey he was the goalie of record for a cup win. That goes far for any franchise, even one that lacks sentimentality like Vegas.

I just don't know what the reason was for ditching Thompson? If you had a clear upgrade or something sure but Samsonov? Has never been good for more than a month at a time.

I miss the days of blindsided hits that showed hotdogs like Savard the value of that "skilled' game. Don't get what's wrong with you kids and your xting.

 

[v00d00daddy]

Classy

Thanks. I’ll stay as classy as the knights for the night

Well Thompson wanted out because we kept trying to force Hill to happen. LT would play great and we would without fail always go straight back to Hill who has been complete trash since coming back from injury last year. LT is the better goalie by far so we take a step back everywhere in Goal.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Anyone want Nick Robertson?

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Lol. You said “hit him hard enough to separate him from the puck”.

That’s exactly what happened.

Hit him JUST hard enough to seperate him from the puck.

Yeah, I'm not holding it against Hill because these November games aren't exactly the most important as long as we make the playoffs one way or another.

Local rumor (for that that's worth) is that Logan Thompson had developed an attitude about splitting time with Hill that was not conducive to keeping him around, similar to how McCrimmon got rid of Fleury because of his incessant whining about having to split time with Lehner was causing problems.

What a great team effort by the Leafs. Missing some big pieces and up 2-0 with 3:30 left.

 

[Nothingbutglass]

Good for the Leafs pulling this game out. Forward unit is going to be rough for a bit with 7 guys out

The kids look good! Grebyonkin and Minten especially

 

[VivaLasVegas]

If only there was some way to find some middle ground between a five game suspension and giving the knights a power play. If only.

 

[v00d00daddy]

Now it’s time for the leafs to dump, chase and drill for 3 mins
