Post-Game Talk: Leafs cakewalk to Win -> Habs suckage hits new levels

[Tarmore]

I thought it ironic that the 'talking heads' couldn't stop talking about the 'injury' Samsonov for a good pert of the second and the intermission.

Third period starts... no mention of who is in net. It took FIVE minutes of play until they acknowledged that Samsonov was even in net for the Leafs.

Gustavson should be our #1 PPQB. I don't know how it'd work 5 on 5, but I'd easily have him over Rielly on the PP

Nylander Bunting and Rielly on PP#2 could be interesting too.

Not sure how to fit Gus into the starting 6 though? Not a fan of 11/7 either.

The Leafs drill the Habs, and some loser Montreal fan starts a "showboating" thread on the main board.

Yes, t'was a good night.

They locked that thread up tight Hahaha

 

[Clark4Ever]

That was fun.

It's unfortunate. That thread had so much promise.

Come on! It was a bush league thread

Oh I know. I'm surprised it got locked. Usually Leafs troll threads remain open a lot longer.

 

[GoonieFace]

Of course no Leafs fan has ever done the same. Why even post that in here? You are basically feeding the beast

I wouldn't expect anything less.

Speaking of figure skaters, what were the Habs doing last night? They certainly weren't playing hockey.

 

[egd27]

Keefe feeling like us leaf fans all season with the officiating!

Was he yelling at Bunting for not keeping his composure with the officials?

Just a show of how bad it was lol

Is there anything better than watching a putrid Montreal team get absolutely destroyed? That team has about a decade before they are relevant if at all. Just trash top to bottom

Too many people were siding with the Leafs. Can't have that.

They almost did a Figure Eight

Obviously the Habs had nothing to play for, but come on man. It was enjoyable.

I am still salty the NHL isn't giving Marner an assist on Matthews goal. A certain player in Edmonton gets assists if he breaths in the general direction of a puck.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

You'd have to be a fool to underrate the Lightning come playoff time, they very well could beat the pants off the Leafs...but it's not like Tampa is trying to avenge Montreal's "honor" or anything, they're playing to win for themselves and don't give two shits about Montreal.

This reads like a sore loser playing for a non-playoff team. Neither Toronto nor Tampa are going to be thinking about Montreal during their series, period.

I have no clue how they consider a puck bouncing off a leg as possession.
Somehow other team's top players pick up free points, while we get obvious points denied.
There was another point they robbed Marner of a couple weeks ago. He'd be at 100 already.

It didn't bounce off his leg. He clearly kicked it and it went to Matthews.

 

[MCR74]

Wideman is still in the NHL?

 

[Dekes For Days]

It didn't bounce off his leg. He clearly kicked it and it went to Matthews.

Call it whatever you want. Fact is it wasn't possession. They wouldn't count that as possession for offside or for calling a penalty, so why are they randomly counting it as possession to deny one of the best players in the game an earned point for a goal that was directly set up by the individual? McDavid gets that point, without a thought, especially if he's approaching a milestone.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

He didn't gain possession of the puck.

I missed all the action and post-game commentary. Pretty funny to see Habs fans crying injustice due to too many goals were scored on them. 9 times out of 10 The Habs are up for a game against the Leafs.

I had a coworker who was one of those Habs fans that spent all his time thinking about the Leafs and following the Leafs. His personal Stanley Cup was when the Habs beat TOR in the Bubble series. Even knowing that MTL was facing cap problems and bad contracts in the near future, he was elated about MTL beating TOR. I hope he's f***ing crying in his pea soup at this moment.
