Post-Game Talk: Leafs beat the Kings - B2B shutouts

[Blanche Blanche]

The revenge tour continues. You're next Anaheim

KEEFE NOD

Great game from the entire team! Where was this in October? I'm pleased that they got in shape in October to play this well in November and December! Maybe our players should actually train in the off-season and come ready to play in October!

I thought Durzi should have got a roughing penalty for getting his stick and gloves up in Engvall's face prior to him clubbing that little f***er! JMHO!

Cowboy Bill Flett lol good one.

It was a great hit and nice to see a fight, but we were dominating to that point and it continued after. Felt more like the dam just broke than the fight inspiring anything

Said the same in the GDT. It was only a matter of time before they broke out. More of a coincidence than anything

Didn’t give it to his goalie partner for the shutout? Controversy?

 

[meefer]

After a terrible start to the season, and little support player scoring, the Leafs are now tied for 4th in goal differential in the NHL, +22. Boston and New Jersey are lapping the field, as both teams are off to ridiculous starts, but we're reeling them in. Shutouts will do that. And while correlation is not causation, I want to give props to Timmins. He's not afraid of the physical. Against Dallas, Benn, and tonight the same against Iafallo (?), plus the sequence off the face-off between Danualt and Kamph to the left of the Leafs net: a tough time getting a clean drop of the puck, Timmons playing the left wall, and when the play finally gets going the puck dances towards Samsonov, who scoops it up, and there was Timmins wheeling about in front of Sammy ready to bust any King who tried to crowd our net. He wasn't using his butt to protect, he was ready to dance. I like that.

 

[Cecithepylon]

That was a totally complete game. Dominated from start to finish. Don't see too many games like that in a season.

Except last game hahaha

 

[leafsfan5]

Awful news, hopefully he recovers quickly

 

[Petrus]

Is it disrespectful to mention that I would buy Durzi's mom an alcoholic beverage of her choice?

Any pics?

Was pretty funny Mike Johnson going Super Saiyan during that Marner shift.

I have watched this team for 20+ years, this was in terms of a single game performance probably in the top 10.

This is the goaltending I have ever and I watched Cujo,and Belfour.

What makes this goaltending better is not that they are better than Cujo or Belfour it's to early to say that.but they are both going and that never happens usually it's one and sometimes not even that.

Let me assure you they have NEVER been this committed to defense, how many games has the goaltending had to steal? Minnesota and MAYBE Dallas?

and even Dallas was 4-0 can you steal a 4-0 win?

So MAYBE 2.

2 all season what more can be expected?

This team is playing as well as I have ever seen

 

[Spargon]

So...promote Kallgren for Saturday night and see if he also puts up a shutout?

Congratulations to Samsonov on achieving his first shutout with the team. Hoping we can keep Brodie around too now that we've also won with him.

Jokes aside, has that ever happened? A team get back to back to back shut outs with 3 different goalies?

 

[AcerComputer]

When was the last time we had B2B shutouts? damn. These Leafs are something else.

 

[34]

Dubas created best goalie duo in league. Go figure.

You know what… it is the best goalie duo in the NHL. i did not expect that…just wow.

Thats tough but not surprising when the injury happened. A speedy recovey to him.


This guy man

 

[Confucius]

When was the last time we had b2b Shutouts. Hopefully the goalies and D can keep this up, and the offensive firepower coming into form is a blessing. Lets keep this momentum.

March 2021 allowed 1 goal in 3 games vs oilers. 1 period away from back2back2back

 

[Torontonian]

Awful news, hopefully he recovers quickly

Gotta feel for the kid, seems like injuries are going to derail him at this point, that's 3 significant injuries for him since turning pro.

 

[ponder]

Man, we’ve been playing some seriously f***ing good hockey since ~the end of October. You love to see it!

Only downside - that Nicky Bobby injury, sounds like a pretty legit shoulder injury, I’m guessing a separated shoulder :/

I want an announcer to react like that. Partly the reaction comes because he's a Leafs fan.

Sammy needs to be careful, media can milk that quote into a major controversy lmao

Agreed. Where's our homer announcer?

The only good thing that may come out of this is that it may finally be Anderson at 2LW season.

But they will probably give it to Steeves instead.

 

[Mr_Fun]

I like it. Nice to spread that around to some of the also rans in recognition of their graeat effort.

 

[Tak7]

Yup. Just too small and a series of unfortunate back to back to back major injuries. Not the first but heart breaking.

Now do Robertson

The only good thing that may come out of this is that it may finally be Anderson at 2LW season.

But they will probably give it to Steeves instead.

Neither are good enough for 2LW
