Post-Game Talk: Leafs 7 Canucks 3

[Superstar]

Babcock watched this game and says Spezza is a gud pro

Not gud enough to start him on opening night as a Leaf...booo...where's Nick Shore?

 

[meefer]

Watching Spezza's smile on the bench after the hatty

Watching Spider Simmonds lay a beating on Benn and then offering the tap of respect

Bogo solid throughout

Brodie's outlet pass, defensive presence, and beard

We may have found a 4th line

 

[howlman]

Our 4th line dominated all night. We got something in Boyd

 

[leafsfan5]

Vancouver looks like us under Babcock before he was fired (but worse), they suck at everything and don't care

Great game for everyone except Freddy, 8-2-1 is amazing!

 

[disgruntleddave]

We didn't give them a lot of looks, but we gave them a few too many good looks.

 

[PromisedLand]

So this is what it feels like not to stress out in the last minute of the game. had forgotten what it feels like

lets just keep it this way all the way to the cup.

Thanks!

 

[Leafidelity]

Montreal played that team like 5 times already

 

[mikeyz]

Best game of the season. Easily.

And it’s not even close.

 

[mikeyz]

That game checked off all the boxes. Pretty good!

I am just glad Keefe didn’t put out the big boys on that last power play in the final minute.

Don’t want to give them bulletin board material considering we play them 2 more times in the next 4 days.

 

[PromisedLand]

Ottawa won

the best part was DJ Smith calling a time out with 20 seconds left in the game; and a 5 on 3 advantage with a faceoff in the offensive zone AND leading 3-2

complete troll job by DJ there

LOL

 

[TheTotalPackage]

Spezza found the fountain of youth tonight. Looked like he was 27 tonight.

 

[hotpaws]

good game , we put the boots to an exhausted team like we should have

Demko's trash . it's going to be a long season for the Nucks with him between the pipes

Spezza , hell of a game , the only downside is the old man is moving better than JT , lol

 

[PromisedLand]

Ship it.

Takeaways: Spezza rolls the clock back 12 years.
.

Here is hoping Jumbo watching this and getting jealous and comes back absolutely motivated

Hab fans: wE'lL wIn ThE CuP,wE bEaT vAnCoUvEr!
Toronto's fourth line center: I've only score 26 goals in the last 221 games, this hat-trick was easy.

 

[kevsh]

Spezza, playing on the 4th line, scored as many goals tonight as the entire third line has this season (Vesey 2, Kerfoot 1, Soup 0).

Keefe was apparently aware of this stat so he sent Kerfoot and his linemates out at the end of the game for a late PP ... Needless to say, they didn't score.

 

[MattySnipes]

They weren't actually. Check the replay.

Freddy was just making non chances look like grade A chances.

That mid danger crap has to stop from him. Jesus.

 

[unitedstars87]

Spezza bringing his youth back tonight.

Flash backs of how he terrorized us as a Sen. Amazing player.

 

[7even]

When you get beat wide by a 37yo Jason Spezza, it might be time to hang em up

 

[BTP]

Jason "Toffoli" Spezza was a beast tonight

 

[BertCorbeau]

Hats off to Petan for making the most of his opportunity..

Would play him again

 

[Wafflewhipper]

Our 4th line dominated all night. We got something in Boyd

Yep. Nobody seen him coming. He’s a solid player. Smart,defensively aware. Good all around player

 

[Muston Atthews]

Love that Simmonds waited for Nylander to rip the puck before dropping the gloves. And then whooped some ass. Wayne train baby. Buds all day

 

[zeke]

To be 100% completely honest, Hutch would literally not be a downgrade on what Fred is giving us right now.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Flash backs of how he terrorized us as a Sen. Amazing player.

This is what it felt like went he’s on your team. It’s wonderful haha

 

[zeke]

Lol the Leafs were over 75xgf% tonight
