GDT: Kings @ Leafs - 7:30

[saffronleaf]

lol my takeaway this season is that there is never any distinct kicking motion. just kick away. you can even stab the goalie's pads. stuff it in

Get Kerfoot the f*** out of town. Useless pile of trash

 

[The Kessel Run]

That's odd, because there was clearly a distinct kicking motion. I had assumed the fact that Campbell stopped that first kick negated it from being and illegal goal?

 

[Aashir]

This really shouldn’t be a loss

 

[BackPassChampions]

No surprise there that it wasn't called back.

There was definitely intent to kick it in.

 

[hamzarocks]

that did seem like a good goal.

Sucks that it happened to us, but I'd want that to count if that was the leafs.

 

[TheGreatOne11]

call a timeout and plead for mercy

Matty's just going to pop one in before the third.

 

[The Big Swede13]

If thats not a kick might as well abolish the rule

 

[saffronleaf]

Perhaps the second line could do things.

matthews just hasn't done much. might be like nylander's season when he missed training camp. i.e. useless.

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

I didn't see a kicking motion and I'm pretty sure it was over the line but no one talked about what I'm wondering: when did it become OK to just skate into the goalie with the puck? All teams do it including the Leafs, just wondering.

 

[tmlms13]

i'm still not entirely sure that completely crossed the line

 

[Azazel]

What the f*** is kicking then? So im guessing they are going to call it a sweep? Its called a sweep-kick.

 

[Cynical]

The puck was intentionally kicked twice there.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Meh. Leafs look terrible. Shouldn't be relying on 50/50 goals.

 

[MSZ]

Danault the Leaf killer.

Be thankful that they only play LA twice a year.

 

[DarkKnight]

matthews just hasn't done much. might be like nylander's season when he missed training camp. i.e. useless.

He’s still gets goals but where’s the moxy?

 

[Hockey 4 Life]

Dermott, holl, kerfoot, Engvall, and Ritchie are all wastes of cap space on a cap strapped team.

 

[KaberLeaf]

“No distinct kicking motion”? This league…it baffles me to think what would qualify.

 

[cyborg]

Whatever happened to the old
When your d partner is in the corner
U MUST be in front of your own net to Defend
Man o man such little things that cost us big
Not good on 23

Damm,i hate trap hockey

 

[RunItBackAgain]

League needs a HOTFIX now!!

 

[Dragao6]

Only in nhl can a guy kick it twice, never touches the stick and be declared not a kicking motion and good goal lol

 

[Contenderorpretender]

I've always wondered what the NHL definition of a kick is?

 

[Teeder Keon]

Get Kerfoot the f*** out of town. Useless pile of trash

Add
47
20
And make it a 6 player trade

 

[francis246]

This really shouldn’t be a loss

I think you had to see it coming. Perfect trap game. No matter how good of a team you are,‘it’s hard to win many games consecutively in a row.

 

[PromisedLand]

matthews wake up buddy. need some evenstength scoring for you
