Post-Game Talk: Leafs Dominate Sens

[Stigma]

First game in eons what it felt like with a big victory to boot and it’s pin drop silence in here with 3 pages of the post game thread, I guess folks are still recovering from New Years lol. Happy New Years all, Cheers.

I was shocked to see only 4 pages this morning. I don't think I've ever seen that before. I think it may also be a bit of weariness. With all these events and games being cancelled maybe people feel as though recommitting their time and energy to the NHL may result in yet another let down. I know I was not as pumped as I should have been for the game yesterday.

If mik plays this well more often our team is very very very good

Mika just has to skate and he'll beat Ritchie for that spot

Ritchie was given every opportunity to succeed

Nylander is quickly becoming the player I enjoy watching the most. He looks like the best version of himself this year.

He's hitting his prime right now, sneakily dominate player. Flirting with a 35-40 goal season. Talk about a value contract.

 

[Mess]

The boys looked fantastic. No rust at all.

That felt like a typical Leaf game in the North Division last season.

Good team to warm up against, and I felt the same way in this being a Déjà vu of already seen this as a return to the North Division.

I'm guessing the upcoming Oilers game going to repeat that process as well.

Glad for Ilya and Brodie, Marner sucks on PP as usual.

How the *hell* did Engvall manage to have a minus game in a 6-0 win??


(For @Teeder Keon )

Where do you see he had a minus game?

 

[Leaffan1991]

That third line will be very effective if they all stay healthy.

Just jokes. Read the subtext in my post. I was just trying to feed into Teeder's unhealthy hatred for Engvall.

Many liked the Kase signing if he remained healthy and he has been so he is Dubas' steal of the summer. 65 seemed to play at a higher gear last night. If he can do it consistently, we are golden.

I like the bunting signing as well

 

[Doublerum1975]

I don't understand why dermont doesn't get any love i think he played well and has been having a good season

 

[ToneDog]

Yup Bunting was a steal and for two years !! Gallagher lite at a sweet cap hit. IMO a close second if Kase can keep it up and remain healthy.

Our fan base is weird, we can’t love Dermott, Sandin and Liljegren all at the same time can we now

Not this guy love all three would like to see holl sitting He’s been so frustrating this season

 

[CincoHolio]

Nylander reminds me so much of a poor man's (right shooting) Almo. Fast, strong sublime skater that backs defenders off. Deft hands with a wicked shot and great passing skills. Hard to take your eyes off the guy.

 

[francis246]

I thought Holl played very well last night! The reality is we need holl to find his game. If he can play like he did last year, we are a much better team at the end of the day and don’t have to spend assets to upgrade

 

[ULF_55]

I wouldn't take much from this game.

Sens didn't show up and showed little resolve.

I want to say, maybe Sandin needs to play with Holl, as they looked good but see above.

The Senators from last night wouldn't have challenged any team.

 

[Beaumaris]

They have been saying the same here in Edmonton for about six years now.Lol.

 

[Christ]

This will age well...lol

 

[ShaneFalco]

This will age well...lol

A true legend

 

[AvroArrow]

Did anyone see that deserve to win o meter that had the sens at 10 percent LOL. That should be a legitimate 100-0. Mikheyev looked like a superstar, so happy he's back in the lineup. Phenomenal game by him, hoping he keeps the momentum going. Brodie is an absolute stud. Quietly one of the best defensive d-men in the league, not flashy but the guy is f***ing good. I didn't realize there was a game til I got the 2 SHG notifications on my phone. Nylander once again played like a beast, great game all around.

 

[AvroArrow]

Oh and Buffalo "Our rebuild is 2 years ahead of yours"

 

[Macallan18]

of course we can.
Just don't add Holl to the mix
