Post-Game Talk: Leafs beat Connor Hellebuyck 4-3, end 3 game skid in OT

[SeaOfBlue]

Nylander with a ridiculous game.

All in all, Leafs have been way better than the Jets this year.

Vezina winner standing on his head and the Leafs still have scored 7 in the two games.

And the Leafs can't score...

What is funny is that we probably should have scored double what we did. Hellebuyck is the best player in this series by far.

 

[Mikeyg]

fred just cannot be trusted to make a save right now man, don't kid yourself, this could have been another loss.... he needs to sit. BAD.

 

[On-the-Fly]

Almost Hellebuyck, almost.

See ya Saturday.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Helleybuck: I'm the best player in this game

Matthews: hold my pink whitney

Hyman
Helly
Willy
Morgan
AM
JT
TJ

Also:

That missed slash on Rielly was so egregious it's insane

The fact that Matthews is still scoring with a bum wrist is crazy.

 

[PromisedLand]

Matthews and Mikheyev benefited from Nylander softening Hellebuyck all night LOL

 

[Sniper99]

Yes, another win despite Andersen and his once again under .900% on the night.

Just enjoy a Win for Christs sakes. Holy shit!

 

[Steve776]

They one felt line a playoff game.

Helleybuck: I'm the best player in this game

Matthews: hold my pink whitney

 

[RobBrown4PM]

Jets had no right to be in that game. Without Hellebuck, it's a 5-0 game.

[Stonehands 1]

f*** you refs, Go Leafs go!!!!!!!

 

[Steve776]

Matthews and Mikheyev benefited from Nylander softening Hellebuyck all night LOL

Tenderized him like a minute steak lol

 

[TMLeafer]

Disgusting:

1) the goal
2) the officiating

 

[Jozay]

Both refs should be fired for not making a call on that stick slash. Give them 20 seconds of 3on2 are you kidding me?

Brutal stuff from the refs.

 

[Nylander88]

matty knows that you gotta elevate the puck when deking if you want to score

Terrific jab. Even better had Nylander not scored tonight

 

[ACC1224]

Marner doesn’t get an assist. On the OT goal??

 

[Aashir]

Idgaf that Andersen wasn’t good, I don’t want to talk about some negative shit here. Feels SOOOOOOOO good winning against hellef***youtoo
Hell yeah, took a lot of effort but we broke through and won the game. Boys didn’t crumble at any point, Nylander might have had the best game of his season. Matthews goes silky smooth buttery mode. Rielly with a great pass. Might’ve been our big 4s best game as a whole 4 man unit

On the side note, saw another poster mention it saying how helle was the first star, even on the losing team, but he also was sub .900, that should tell you that he robbed, and this is used too much, but he literally and physically robbed a point

 

[Teeder Keon]

fred just cannot be trusted to make a save right now man, don't kid yourself, this could have been another loss.... he needs to sit. BAD.

But it wasn’t and he won
No problem with Fred except the 3rd goal

 

[Lemontree]

Kiss my ass ref that you didn’t call that a slash.

Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas, kiss my ass, kiss his ass, Happy Hanukkah.

 

[Warden of the North]

That's outrageous

 

[Albus Dumbledore]

These games matter to Keefe the most. He will disect the other North division teams come playoff time.

 

[Stephen]

Wow not even blatant officiating, new goalie pads and a wrist injury could sink Auston Matthews tonight.

 

[Myopic]

I've never seen a prettier backhand shot in my life. That was f'n electric! What a player.
