GDT: Leafs @ Canes - Let's keep this effort going | 5pm Et | ESPN, TSN4, TVAS

[Mitch nylander]

Last GDT seemed to work, so thought I'd put some effort in another GDT. No Samsonov, Murray, Woll. Don't get hurt Kallgren....

Edit: Just saw Petruzzelli signed. I'd assume he'll be getting called up.

Less than 24 hour turnaround with travel feels....unnecessary

 

[1specter]

Hope the boys can rally together to play high effort hockey and clamp things down knowing that Sammy and Murray are both out

5pm??

 

[Jacquestrapless]

Factors working against them:
B2B
3rd string goaltender
Travel
Playing against top tier team

Factors working for them:
They are the Leafs

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Sucks that we won't be able to enjoy the Bruins win before likely getting smacked back down against a rested and great Hurricanes team.

5pm??

Heaven forbid they compete with Sunday Night Football.

 

[stickty111]

Tough game followed by the toughest game this season considering the factors. I'll be really happy with a point

FWIW: Only one hour difference with time change. Canes 3rd game in 4 nights and Leafs 3rd game in 5 nights.

Go Leafs Go!
Odd time for a game, hate leaving DST, but I guess its ok to start drinking whiskey at 5 PM?

 

[Clark4Ever]

If we can get a point out of this one, I'd be happier than a pig in poop under the circumstances.

Time change is fair, its a really weird pattern in the Canea schedule. Theres a few other Sun games that are in that 4-6pm range. Almost always on a homestand and often b2b for them.

Is that normal for you guys?

 

[TMLeafer]

That's some wacky scheduling. Go get em boys!

Yes. They find that time to be family friendly, particularly on a Sunday night.

Unfortunately, I unluckily caught a bad case of Covid and won’t be able attend. (Lol I figure I caught it at our dismal islander game).

Good game against the B’s last night….today should be a good game.

 

[Dekes For Days]

Going to be a tough game with less than 24 hour turnaround, travel, and facing a good, rested team with our #4 and #5 goalies, but hopefully we can carry some of the emotion from the great win last night over to today. Think Matthews and Marner are going to have good games.

I'd rather have a 5 pm game than a 10 pm game again, but man, NHL's scheduling is horrible.

Yeah no idea why the Leafs are scheduled like this. Seems like a huge disadvantage. They also play in Toronto Tuesday.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

Just want good effort. Win or lose.

 

[kb]

Canes are playing their third game in 4 days today.

 

[GoonieFace]

I see the excuses are already being made. They played solid last night, no reason they can’t duplicate that effort. Good teams find ways to perform, and don’t look for convenient excuses.

All was great and praises heaped on everyone after beating a crappy Flyers team who played the night before.

 

[AvroArrow]

Another beauty GDT

But a 5pm start ? Wtf ? Gonna miss this one, or at least 2 periods of it.

ESPN wanted an early hockey game today.

 

[BTP]

Sunday back to back at 5pm?

We either lose 8-0 or win 9-1. No in between lol

 

[therealkoho]

Time is ripe for MM to put on a show

LGL LGL LGL LG.....ermm nvm

GLG GLG GLG

Really hope Robertson draws back in.
