GDT: Leafs at Jets - 7pm.

[IrishInOntario]

Sandin destroys Wheeler with a clean hit. Jets retaliate by going after our captain with a cross check to the face.

And we're the dirty team?

Meh. Can't blame the Jets for responding after what happened to Lowry the other night. Everyone is on edge. Simmonds and Foligno are going to have have to take care of the boys before the night is out. No Hyman or Bogosian in the lineup makes the Leafs a little bit less capable in that department, but no Lowry in the lineup means the same for the Jets.

How does a cross check to the jaw of a star player go uncalled in this league?

Because Leafs already have a PP and in the backwards, Neanderthal NHL tradition, it takes a min. of a potential season ending play, if not, a career ending play for the second call to occur.

We have all been conditioned to this creepy standard. It's insulting and keeps the game in the Dark Ages

 

[123offtheglass]

For such a small weak guy Sandin really can step up & throw a good hit, whether it be big like the Wheeler hit or just an effective hit on the opposition.

Will be great for him if he can add some strength/power.

f*** you jets. buncha pansies. Let me get this straight you can do whatever and we have to take it? The day we start playing physical the jets start being bitches.

 

[cgc83]

im sure Maurice will find some way to cry about the wheeler hit post game
" ahh yeah i didnt like how sandin's back ran into our wheeler , it was a dirty play "
boo hoo hoo hoo

How does a cross check to the jaw of a star player go uncalled in this league?

Leafs are leading so it can't be called according to 'game management'.

The league wouldn't want the refs to 'decide the game', you know, like how the Leafs now have to play clean or get penalized while the Jets are free to cross check people in the face. That of course, has NO effect on the game. /sarcasm

 

[Jozay]

Sandin absolutely f***ed Wheeler up

 

[dfunk]

Know what Sandin is saying, AHL has been fine.

But here is where I belong

Folks, anyone here come across a badger......

Well it seems we have one.

This guy is a dman's bobby schmautz

Schmautz, was 155 lbs soaking wet in blood. No Leaf player ever got close to this guy.

This kid has nice skills but he wants to hurt people.

Lets face it, that is an allstar in the NHL, always was, always will be.

lay off the 6 paper joints, ricky

 

[Teeder Keon]

Not sure the Jets strategy is working out how they hoped.

Unless their strategy is being cuck Ed

 

[DarkKnight]

Wow that’s lame.

 

[banks]

I do t normally post in a GDT. But I just have to point out how awesome it was to watch that Jumbo Joe wrap-around goal.

Great goal.

 

[rdogg]

Get rekt, Wheeler

 

[PromisedLand]

Are the bay street bullies back in town?

 

[18leafsfan18]

Next year

Mo TJ
Sandin Dermy
Lilly Muzz

Is Holl the expansion causualty ?

I've seen alot that that might be Dermott.

I haven't looked into the rules too close to see if Holl would be exposed

 

[saffronleaf]

Ron's puns and stuff are just getting worse and worse.

 

[horner]

besides that awesome reverse hit; sandin was caught pinching and then had a few giveaways.....

It's his second NHL game this year.
Morgan not great
Muzzin giving the puck away

he is doing really good for himself I think.

 

[fahad203]

Ron's puns and stuff are just getting worse and worse.

I swear to god they are at cringe worthy level. So lame

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Two thoughts:

- That Gally penalty was hilarious. Pionk totally interferes with him and we get the call. Gotta call something I guess.
- Sandin! Loving him more and more. LOL @ that play against Wheeler. Welcome to the bigs Blake! Haha.

 

[frog]

Sanding hit was clean on wheeler...I thought he was injured after fighting Lucic... Good to have a tough solid defenceman again

Simmer will be dropping em tonight I think. Intensity is going to keep going up. Glad we have a guy like him. Crazy how he isn't like a Matt Martin or Colton Orr...yet he has so much respect when it comes to toughness. He's a lanky 6'2" but he just knows how to scrap. He doesn't seem to get many takers when he does stuff, such as what he was doing to Dubois last night. Man can scrap, and others know it

 

[TimeZone]

Sticking up for a teammate is not being a Moron - no matter what team you cheer for !

Taking a penalty after your 6'5 225 lb captain gets hit by a 5'11 185 lb 20 year old makes you look like a moron, no matter what team said player is on.

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Ron's puns and stuff are just getting worse and worse.

Wait, people watch this garbage? I insta-mute Ron and crew nowadays, I assumed others did too.

 

[18leafsfan18]

Exactly the same.

Sportsnet is unwatchable during intermissions now (Other then Bieksa)
