Post-Game Talk: Leafs Book Their Tickets for Game 7 [MOD WARNING in OP]

Can someone post the first goal? I want to see what prevented Marner from doing his job.

To hang that on Stolarz is foolish... which our regular goalie experts here, are doing.
 
Neither goals Stolie could have done anything about them

We couldn't even get a goal for him in our own barn

We even had 4 min pp in OT last game

We are focusing on the wrong things

We had more, and better chances, than Ottawa in Game 4 and Game 5.

Ullmark made the saves, Stolarz didn't. Stolarz keeps kicking out rebounds and everyone in Ottawa knows to shoot it high because he goes down early. That Brady goal in Game 4 he wasn't screened at all. First shot of the period 15 minutes in and he lets it in.

Imagine watching the floating 4 and thinking yup, goaltending is the problem

Imagine I told you through 5 games in the series, where the Leafs allowed less than 20 shots a game, that our goalie would have under .900 goaltending throughout the series.

Imagine I told you in game 4 with the Leafs up 3-0 in the series, that the Leafs would score 3 goals in regulation and allow 14 shots in 60 minutes and lose the game.

Would you suggest switching goalies?
 
I swear Ryan O'Rielly willed them to that series win over Tampa and was like, never again lol

It's strange they have not been able to work though whatever mental blockers they have that prevent them from performing in series clinching games. I am sure there are some shrinks out there that had a lot of money riding on the Sens!
I think it’s more of a physical limitation than mental.

He was semi interfered with. Look like he tried to sell a call rather than battle through the opponent giving Chabot enough time to get the shot off.
 
Nobody went out and grabbed it.
Nobody lit anybody up on their first shift.
Nobody dug in and took punishment in the crease.
Nobody responded to Zub.
Nobody scored.
Nobody even threatened.
Nobody cared.

...and sadly, Nobody was even angry about it out there.

All too familiar.

No, because I can do more than stat watch.

For what its worth i probably would've been alternating goalies right along because I think theyre both better in a tandem.

But Stolarz's play is NOT the problem
