GDT: Leafs@Canucks 10PM: the dog edition

[Critical13]

Big thanks to Zebras for not blowing their whistles all game. This one is flyin by.

 

[Sniper99]

nice stop Hutch.

 

[Cleetus]

Wow Spezza looked old and slow on that dump and chase. Lol

back to back, them old legs take a while to get warmed up lol, I thought he did not play back to backs. guess I was wrong

 

[TMLeafer]

Tavares Kerfoot

Nice save Hutch

 

[Teeder Keon]

HUTCH is closed

 

[DopeyFish]

Wow Spezza looked old and slow on that dump and chase. Lol

back to backs will never be friendly in your late 30s

or morgan rielly at any age

 

[blue stick]

a bit scrambly, hopefully we don't continue to play down to Canucks level

 

[CapspaceKiller]

They are tired and sloppy, but their 2nd efforts are really great and covering up for it.

 

[wingman75]

This game is a struggle. As long as they keep with their defensive structure they'll have a chance. Gotta think 34 is good for one tonight.

 

[glue]

Vancouver looks way way better then Edmonton, i have been very surprised at how bad they’ve been this season, they have just underperformed

 

[DarkKnight]

Anyone notice that pick that Brodie set on the forechecker so Reilly had a bit more time ? Great subtle play

 

[fahad203]

Really?

Keep up that energy next time Marner tries forcing the puck across the middle for the 10th straight time on a PP

You are right. But still doesn't take away that started with Nylander who could have slapped shot instead tried a spin around and pass
Giving the puck away.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Tavares Kerfoot

We need a real top notch top 6 left winger big time

 

[mcleafs]

We’ve fanned on and missed so many good chances.

2nd half of a back to back.

 

[The Big Swede13]

Lots of scrambling and turnovers in the 2nd. To be expected with 4 games in 6 nights

 

[meefer]

Hutch is tracking the play so much better these days. Calm, very little excess, who knew? I like it.

 

[34]

This looks like a tired Toronto team. They are getting out worked big time.

 

[IrishInOntario]

He does work on that line. Much better than center on third and it looks way better without him.

Move him all together for all I care. Go get me a Rackell type that has a similar skill level to his two linemates.

 

[Thissiteisgarbage]

TSN a blessing compared to Sportsnet broadcast.

 

[Teeder Keon]

One little thing
Jumbo should have sat out this one

And Spezz on b2b games

 

[The Man with a Plan]

Two fine hits by Mikky, one at the blue line and the other behind their net. Good man, heck of a man.

Very satisfying to see a lot of Leafs have their mean on. About time that bit o swagger turned into violence.

 

[JayDog17]

The 2nd line is playing well, but JT and Willy make everything happen it seems. Rarely is Kerfoot involved with anything dangerous it seems. I'd really like Toronto to upgrade that spot.

Nope, he looks great there.

 

[Dave92]

Would be nice to see someone faster than Thornton on the first line for a couple shifts.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

2nd half of a back to back.

I know. The boys have to be exhausted and aren’t sharp right now. How they can break through.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Oilers would have cracked by now.

Did I just compliment the Canucks?

 

[Morgs]

Vancouver looks way way better then Edmonton, i have been very surprised at how bad they’ve been this season, they have just underperformed

They have the same problem as Edmonton. Very top heavy with virtually no depth and iffy goaltending. The difference is McD is worth more than any two players on Vancouver.

I don't think either are really playoff teams.
