GDT: Leafs at Habs Pre-season Game #5 - Saturday, September 30

[The Management]

What I love too, it's just so obvious Knies is an NHL player, it isn't even a question this camp. He's got so much room to grow from here, it's exciting where's he at right now.

Yep, he's responsible defensively. There were a couple shifts that period where he used his reach and his hands to turn over the puck.

... before I finished typing, there's a goal, lol.

 

[Aashir]

Right therr

 

[DopeyFish]

jones with a great save

 

[Stand Witness]

Minten’s preseason has me optimistic about his NHL future. He looks like he will fill some role eventually.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Knies is such a beaut. Big save by Jones, will suck when he’s claimed.

 

[fahad203]

Great save Jr....(if you know you know)

 

[BrannigansLaw]

As I stated yesterday, Knies > Bustkovsky

 

[Cleetus]

They are watching the Texas/Seattle game.

got the leafs on 1 TV, the Texas game on another TV lol, was hoping I would be able to watch Football tomorrow, but likely will have to watch the jays game instead

 

[MSZ]

Right therr

Is Greg Millen calling this game?

 

[SprDaVE]

Clifford looks at the guy that hit Benoit from behind and does nothing. Thanks man... good job.

 

[Aashir]

If he somehow doesn’t get claimed, I’m very happy with Jones as our 3rd goalie

With Samsonov’s injury history and wolls rookie season, I would rather jones than kallgren

That dude hit Benoit in the numbers and Clifford grabbed him. Dude looked like he was going to poop himself twice. Clifford bringing that energy

 

[DarkKnight]

I love how Knies uses his body to shield the puck, that's playoff proof hockey.

Clifford didn't do anything lol

The Jays game was bad enough, I don't want to be disappointed again with Texas so I'm not watching that.

 

[fahad203]

As I stated yesterday, Knies > Bustkovsky

10 other players > Bustovksky

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Isn't the point of Clifford being around to fight the guy when someone does that?

 

[HockeyVirus]

Clifford didn't do anything lol

He didn't have to. The message was sent

 

[DopeyFish]

lol mike johnson isn't making sense with his standing there hit from behind talk

like... if you're standing there for 3 seconds, the hitter clearly sees it's from behind

 

[fahad203]

Clifford didn't do anything lol

Benoit is very capable of taking care of himself. I didn't mind that decision

lol mike johnson isn't making sense with his standing there hit from behind talk

like... if you're standing there for 3 seconds, the hitter clearly sees it's from behind

I think what he's implying is that if you hold on to the puck long enough, you'll get some physical contact

 

[SprDaVE]

He didn't have to. The message was sent

Uh... ok.

 

[Maple Leaf]

Should bench knies
no injuries

 

[leafan11]

Gregor has no puck skills whatsoever , why do we need lafftery and him ?

 

[fahad203]

Minten could have dropped that to the D

 

[Menzinger]

The worst trend on here last year was folks trying to place too low of a ceiling on Knoes' development. Too much talk of him topping off as a third liner ect.

He still has work to do but first line potential isn't out of the question
