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

[The Hanging Jowl]

Alright we stayed low long enough, we can play hard for a period. We got this in the 3rd

Problem is this (20 minute break late in the game) is where you stiffen up after playing two days straight. Hopefully they brought 5 of those Phil Kessel ice tanks with them.

I expect you to sound like a apoplectic sailor at the tail end of a 2 week bender for the rest of the night then

I'm getting there. Stay tuned.

 

[Burnie97]

Really good second. Give them hell in the 3rd. Good job Leafers.

 

[Stephen]

Nah, best forward tonight (so far)

I like his whirling dervish skating and little heady touches of the puck tonight in a survival road back to back. Think it's still in the Kerfoot neck of the woods though. Pretty good.

 

[therealkoho]

Awesome play. Whoever took that hit to make that play. Beauty.

That sir,

was JUSTIN HOLL

NHL Dman

 

[Mr_Fun]

Holl was a beast that shift.

I have zero issues with criticizing Holl as long as people recognize his good play, too.

 

[PromisedLand]

LOL, how can this be real life? Every single player I was cursing 20 minutes ago is playing amazing all of a sudden.

did u forget to cuss marner's stupid ass?

 

[SmoggyTwinkles]

Like I said earlier, guaranteed win 100% gut feeling put on all my Leafs gear been watching most of the game.

Go out for a smoke and when I come back it's tied, which is a thing for me.

I promise to take more smoke breaks in the 3rd.

You are all welcome!

Well got to give him credit where it's due.

Much better game by him tonight so far too

I'm getting there. Stay tuned.

I think we can avoid that today, since we only started playing 7 minutes ago.

[Eddo22]

I guess one can't complain too much about Kallgren. He's doing great with exception of that stinker.

 

[leafsfan5]

Once we changed the lines the boys started going

Good changes by Keefe!

 

[Stephen]

I have zero issues with criticizing Holl as long as people recognize his good play, too.

He's good when he's not trying to create too much offense. When he's pushing that, the risk goes up higher than the reward and he ends up looking like a total goober.

 

[ER89]

jarnkork-engvall-bunting looks like a really really good line. Plus would ensure bunting doesn't score 50+ on secondary apples with the big line to keep his contract down.

Malgin/Robertson with JT and Kerfoot could work really well too if we wanted to stack mitch william and auston.

 

[Anthrax442]

Well got to give him credit where it's due.

Much better game by him tonight so far too

Lily took the pressure off him. Holl is good in limited use.

 

[Menzinger]

Jankork should shoot more

 

[Martin Skoula]

I think we can avoid that today, since we only started playing 7 minutes ago.

I vaguely remember playing the Canes like this before, they dominate shots for most of the game and we stop sleepwalking once they're tired.

 

[2 Slick]

Like the effort in the second period, but I can't figure out why this team is bare bones when it comes to producing offense this season. It's mind-boggling to me. Gotta be one of the lowest scoring teams in the NHL.

 

[BayStBullies]

I have zero issues with criticizing Holl as long as people recognize his good play, too.

I recognize his singular good play!

 

[Antropovsky]

Canes should be well rested in comparison to us this game. Haven't they been off of more than 2 days?

 

[MSZ]

I went out and grab some dinner and the game is tied.

Nice.

 

[1specter]

engvall is such an enigma....guy could be a great player if he could just impose himself more physically

 

[Mr_Fun]

I recognize his singular good play!

He's been decent the last 2 games, coinciding with Lilli's return.

 

[SprDaVE]

All from the fourth line. I hope he can keep it up.

 

[Martin Skoula]

Canes should be well rested in comparison to us this game. Haven't they been off of more than 2 days?

I wouldn't be surprised if we were being pickier than usual with our shots early, Andersen always struggles when he isn't facing consistent shots against.
