That was Bailey...

Oops, my mistake.

Oops, my mistake.

Canuck fans wish it was Loui

I really dislike the Leafs reverse retro sweaters. I have got to be among the worst of the lot.

Wearing them on HNIC is rubbing salt on the wound.

 

[Theodore450]

Those alternative jerseys are rough

 

[Mickey Marner]

Good start so far.

 

[Mickey Marner]

All the time in the world.

 

[NyQuil]

The passive box always makes me nauseous.

I’ve never liked it - even on teams I’m cheering for.

 

[Crosstraffic]

Great shot by Simmonds!

 

[Mickey Marner]

I think he just slipped.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Nevermind stick in the blade. Hope we see the Nylander unit now.

 

[Theodore450]

Great defending lmao

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

Great play by Eberle

I don't have any problem with the design, it's just aren't the uniforms these are based on from one of the worst stretches in the history of the franchise? Not sure why you'd draw attention to that.

You want to see Nylander’s unit?

Wayne Simmonds would not be playing this well if he stayed in Philly imo.

He's got some of his swagger back from a half decade ago.

The Leafs had a role for him and he’s filling it well.

We differ slightly on that, but I get your point. The sweaters were tolerable against Edmonton as theirs are one of the very few that are worse than ours.

Accoridng to him he has also been battling injuries for 3-4 years and he was able to finally deal with them.

He's playing great for us and it's probably because he had a lot of time to heal properly.

Great addition! Really like the guy.

A welcome surprise. I figured he would be on the verge of being a taxi squad member by now but he has looked strong in his role

Leafs were the perfect fit for him. He gets to be net front presence on a loaded PP and seeing any kind of physicality on the Leafs is going to earn you kudos given how much flack they've taken for not having any.

Looking at the Leafs roster before the season, I’d say his type of player was what they needed most.
