GDT: Leafs at Pitts 7:00pm CBC/SNO Sat, Oct 23rd

I would be perfectly okay with the wheels falling off this team in the regular season this year rather then the playoffs for a change of pace.

 

[MattySnipes]

We have a first round pick this season or it's gone?

 

[makbeer]

LOL Campbell. These two goals were brutal. NHL goalies should never get scored on a wraparound, especially by a defenseman.

 

[MSZ]

I can't believe I miss Brian Burke's leafs over this..

Blake and Moore were actually fun to watch.

 

[acrobaticgoalie]

If it were up to him we'd have drafted Ritchie over Nylander.
I heard his podcast when they signed Ritchie this summer and he called it the signing of the off season or some crap like that

Exactly and he's the type that will never admit hes wrong even though its so obvious. I have not listened to his pod once and don't plan to.

 

[Maple Leaf]

Yeah i'm turning this shit off, I'll see you all once they get their heads out of their asses

I will watch when they win a playoff round

 

[TMLeafer]

Marner wide again.

another post.

 

[GordieHoweHatTrick]

I wouldn't even say they are getting outworked. They just play incredibly stupid hockey and can't finish plays

Everything is going right for the Penguins and not much right for Toronto.

 

[NinjaKick]

Spezza should not be our best player

 

[ECYCLE]

Nice shot Marner, open look and completely wide and wasted.

 

[Azail]

2 goals by Leafs dmen...

 

[Martin Skoula]

I wouldn't even say they are getting outworked. They just play incredibly stupid hockey and can't finish plays

That's the thing I don't get, they're doing most of what the critics said they don't do and they're awful at the thing the critics say they're supposed to be good at.

For a bunch of one dimensional offensive players, they sure do back check and cycle well but can't seem to make a simple pass in the offensive zone.

Really wish Dubas didn't listen to the media and focused on getting more Bunting and Kases over Ritchie and Simmonds.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Dermott, Sandin, Liljegren, Kral, Niemela all good young D. Keep Nylander for sure, and then Robertson, Amirov all good young forwards. Get a top 5 pick, hopefully win the lotto and get blue chip pieces for our top guys. Should be able to get 4-5 firsts over the next few drafts for Muzzin, Rielly, Kerfoot, Marner, Matthews + a few blue chip dmen.

 

[DarkKnight]

Well played.

 

[LadyLala]

Yeah i'm turning this shit off, I'll see you all once they get their heads out of their asses

So then.. never?

 

[Cleetus]

Ritchie cant even Forecheck guy is f***ing Charmin

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Full lineup vs the Wilkes-Barre Penguins.

Sigh

 

[Havoc]

My fantasy team has marner and matthews. Taking a fat L this week.

 

[michi510]

This team is done. Going to be a long, long season watching them fall apart all year.

Its inevitable that the 4 forwards will get blown up. Time and time again we see that the way this team is built doesn’t work.

2 years straight they say bs like they will learn and be better for it.

They come back playing the same way yearly hoping for different results.

 

[Bellefour20]

Everything is going right for the Penguins and not much right for Toronto.

Make your own luck.

 

[phillipmike]

I'd sign off on a 20 game losing streak in a heartbeat if it means this garbage management team is gone and this garbage core is broken up.

So would I, would also get a lottery pick. Would be perfect.

Hire Rutherford and Boudreau who both wanted to come to the leafs, have experience and success and have the testicular fortitude to make big changes and win like Rutherford did in Pittsburgh.

 

[Folignos Helmet]

Trying to be too cute.
Pass it into the net. trying to pick every corner

all play in offensive zone on the perimeter.

 

[dubplatepressure]

Can someone let me know the "expected goals" totals. I need to feel better.

 

[Cleetus]

just f***ing horrible Kerfoot, guy is horrible

 

[Al14]

Money, money, money, instead of puck, puck, puck in the oppositions net !!!
