GDT: HNIC | Börje "The King" Salming Appreciation Night | Leafs Vs Canucks | 7 p.m. EST

[Teeder Keon]

No matter what …
I will always be a Leaf till it’s over …
60+ years and hopefully another 30 ..
I will go through every emotion , hate on plays and players …
But I will never ever ever hate on our Crest and history or wish us to lose in anyway …
Go leafs go !!!!
Let’s “ Vinna “ this one for The king and for our pride
Cmon boys

 

[leafsfan5]

Impressive that a team who spent 40 million on 4 forwards can’t score

 

[SoVi3t]

It’s like here you haven’t scored in awhile, no here neither have you bro… lol

I wish it was even that good...it's more like:
"I dunno what to do with the puck here you have it"
"uhhhh I don't want it either, have it back!"
"damnit I already told you I don't know what to do out here, let's see if i suicide pass to the defence he will know what to do"
"oh look they intercepted it and are on a two on one, I hope they score soon so I can go sit down I'm sleepy"

 

[PromisedLand]

Can’t wait for someone to say the pregame emotion threw us off.

This. Team. Doesn’t. Have. It.

If I was playing; I wouldn't playing like I am not wearing a f***ing cup.

I'd go balls to the wall for Salming tonight. Absolutely f***ing pathetic the bunch of them. f***ing lay a body; shoot do f***ing something.

Dubas firing can't come soon enough so the shit that he has created can be cleaned out

 

[saffronleaf]

Honestly he's such a bitch. Him and marner both. Such p***yes. Like they're always in their feelings. Can't believe the previous generation got to see sittler Clarke and salming and I get these bitches.

i'm glad i got to see sundin, roberts, tucker era. but i was like ten years old.

would be nice to be able to experience that as an adult.

 

[CabanaBoy5]

Having had the privilege of watching Salming, if this team had 1% of his courage, skill and determination, we wouldn’t be witnessing this crap.

Poorly constructed team starting with giving big money to players who are selfish and self serving. Salming hated to lose, this team accepts losing and look forward to their late night video games.

 

[Puckstuff]

Choose one.

a) Lack of talent
b) Lack of system

talent and lineup formation.

Keefe and Dubas need to go.

 

[MoreMogilny]

I can't imagine anyone wants Dubas making those trades.

I don’t think that’ll be a concern. If the Leafs don’t turn it around quick there’s not a chance he will be here in 2023

 

[Nineteen67]

Choose one.

a) Lack of talent
b) Lack of system

B. Seems that teams are defending them too easily. They should just sit back and play team D and take their chances at catching breaks.

 

[frizzer1]

team won't go anywhere until keefe grows the fortitude to bench the big stars.

nylander should have shot that. matthews is no longer able to shoot the puck. look at how pathetic that shot was. matthews is mostly out there for moral support.

They probably told Matthews that playing won’t make the injury worse.
But if he can’t shoot why even play him?

 

[Carltons Cup]

Dubazz should be fired for his handling of the goalie situation at the start of the season.

Who TF goes out and signs a guy who has a significant injury history?? Oh but wait, Dubazz has the Soo connection with Murray.

What an idiot.

 

[Antropovsky]

just a bit, very very tiny bit.

the entire team combined does not have the heart and compete that kadri does.

He still isn't near Kadri....but his retaliatory penalty is likely because he knows nobody on his team has got his back.... And he despite having some fearless about him... He still might be the smallest guy on the team.

 

[The Apologist]

Not gonna go very far with a tender sporting a .778.

 

[Nhlpowerweek]

Didn’t I tell you all this guy is going to have a game for the ages tonight? Martin is going to pitch a shutout and we’ll be talking about him as a goalie solution for the next 2 years.

You already knew and I have followed the canucks real closely.... Martin right now starts the" tough" games. Like we might even make it tough, ;but that im not sure. Horvat miller and schenn beg the differ

 

[Racer88]

Choose one.

a) Lack of talent
b) Lack of system

I chose A and B

 

[Confucius]

I can't imagine anyone wants Dubas making those trades.

I think we have to trade Mathews this year. If we were good no doubt he signs an extension. If we aren’t even a playoff calibre he’s out of here.

 

[Marshy]

Had to miss this one to go to a birthday party. Luck has smiled upon me.

 

[hockeyes]

This could get ugly, first blowout loss of the season?

 

[SoVi3t]

Choose one.

a) Lack of talent
b) Lack of system

lack of effort

 

[frizzer1]

He still isn't near Kadri....but his retaliatory penalty is likely because he knows nobody on his team has got his back.... And he despite having some fearless about him... He still might be the smallest guy on the team.

It’s hard when you’re the only guy on the team willing to engage.
No leadership here.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Didn’t I tell you all this guy is going to have a game for the ages tonight? Martin is going to pitch a shutout and we’ll be talking about him as a goalie solution for the next 2 years.

He wasn’t tested at all.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Never thought I'd be worried about the offense in the regular season

 

[saffronleaf]

They probably told Matthews that playing won’t make the injury worse.
But if he can’t shoot why even play him?

a goal scorer who can't shoot is pretty freaking useless. rather he go on LTIR to actually get it fixed and we can use the cap space to find a goal scorer who can shoot the puck and score goals.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

This could get ugly, first blowout loss of the season?

It's already ugly.

 

[Nineteen67]

This could get ugly, first blowout loss of the season?

Or they could score early and get back in it.
