Great win, something to build on defensively.
3-0 in games with a fight

Loved the effort tonight. Please no more Reaves, EVER!!!!!
Until Liljegren comes back I'm hoping they Rotate Gio, Lagesson, Benoit, Klinberg for the 5&6 spots

Not allowing 4 goals in a home game; priceless.
Scoring 5 without them is very encouraging. That won't happen a lot

A Sammy start where he was not only he solid, but the boys made sure he could see everything.
I knew it was over when they couldn’t score on four straight power plays and so did you.
Despite the numbers both last and this night I haven’t liked how Matthews and Mitch have looked, but when there’s a Willy, there’s a way.
Canucks successfully taken down a peg, nice little Sunday morning.

Dominant win, Canucks couldn't do anything when they weren't being gifted powerplays
Keep the forward lines as they are, this is the perfect group up front

Looks like standing up for your teammates really does give a team heart and wings to sustain their effort even though we were faced with 6 penalties by the NHL’s most offensively dominant squad.
That bulldog charge by Domi was quite the reaction, and at first I wasn’t sure if taking that penalty was such a wise move, but this team seemed to benefit from the vitriol and chippy play and step up their game to a higher level.
The outcome was a breath of fresh air, and I hope they keep playing with that same passion because it seems to be working for them. We saw players coming up big that were silent before and its hard to argue against the new approach.
Good job Leafs, and I dare say it… good job coach.

Take the Human Penalty-Kill off and the fourth line scores two goals instead of letting two in. +2 instead of -2.
That made all the difference.

It's an insult to the forwards to think Reaves status matters right now. He can play or not play , it doesn't matter.
Some solid D and there's no reason we couldn't be 15-0 today.
This place doesn't recognize how stacked our forward group is. It's sad

Still want more than one game... but so far it looks like Reaves was holding Kampf back which is what I wanted to see.
Thought the whole team played well for the most part.
Klingberg needs to make decisions faster, and better, but he played better than usual, so that is a good sign, hoping he can build on it.
Lagesson I thought didn't look great tonight.
Some depth scoring is nice.

That third line is pretty potent offensively. This team up front has such a different thing going from last year, sometime for better or worse.
Loving the second line as well.
Knies looks like a Hyman with vision sometimes out there. Solid looking team.

Nothing feels better than putting those pretenders back in their place
Canucks are this year Oilers, powerful and strong when they have PP
I call out Sammy all the time, as I should. But he was good. Give credit

Took 2 penalties for instigating. And gave up 2 goals
It was well worth it. Everyone stood up, got together and forced the win

That looked better… rocky first but the first half of the game was on the PK.
Started off rough but the PK adjusted extremely well to kill that onslaught of penalties in the second.
The fourth line looks much better with McMann, who shouldn’t be sent down. He’s an effective speedy grinder. Kampf plays well with these types.
Knies and Robby scoring is awesome. Two touted prospects cementing themselves on the roster.
Won’t complain about Matthews and Marner.. they had some chances but those 6 penalties made for an odd game.
The forward line up looks really set and steady now.
Nice bounce back game for Sammy. Real solid. Needed that for his confidence.

That canucks GDT thread was simply pathetic. Some rabid circle j.rking and chest pumping ended in nothing and makes this win even sweeter. Domi and Gio have balls, awesome game for our Robo and McMann.
at least they had a lot of practice on the pk tonight lol
