Post-Game Talk: Leafs embarrass the pens and dubas, shut them down. WIN 7-0

[Kurtz]

it is weird to hate someone you haven't met before.

What an odd remark. It's perfectly normal to dislike a person you haven't personally met.

 

[Havoc]

Jones played well, extra happy the Pens missed the open net to start the game so that he got the shutout.

Team D in general was good and the effort was nice too.

Kind of want to keep rolling the Knies/Domi/Marner line and give Matthews Nylander, then let Tavares roll with grinders who can score too.

Liljegren looked good coming back.

The hate towards Dubas reminds me of the hate for Tavares from NYI fans, and I am pretty sure I saw some of you calling those fans pathetic in another thread... it is weird to hate someone you haven't met before.

Dubas sabotaged us from winning the Cup.

You mess with the Leafs and you're nothing but a joke. I'd rather go hard for my team than some below average GM

 

[Darcy Tucker]

Not many teams can lose their number one center then blow out a team like that in the same day. Nice to see when one of the core 4 goes down Bertuzzi , Domi and Knies can step it up to fill the void.

Also congrats to Bobby McMann on his 1st career goal. What a night to do it.

Benoit and Lagesson; beauties.

So many good things tonight:

Jones gets a shutout
Domi with 3 points
Knies scores the 1st goal, it was a beauty and then gets in a fight later.
McMann gets his first goal.
Our defense looked good, especially Benoit.
Bertuzzi with a nice pass to Willy to finish off our 7 goal night.

 

[TakeTheBody]

This is my favorite game of the season. The Leafs played with grit. There was even a fight ( hope you covered your eyes Kyle). I also hope you return home with a yeast infection Kyle. GO LEAFS GO!!!!

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Florida lose tonight and we will be a couple points up with 2 games in hand. Time to set the sights upwards at some Bruins.

 

[shaner8989]

Impressive. Just f***ing impressive

 

[horner]

Love the unselfish play by Bert on the Nylander goal .
Hasn't score in a while instead of shooting makes a great pass to Willy.

 

[Aashir]

Perfect game

Everyone was fantastic

Liljegren looked good for his first game back, apart from that one turnover to Pettersson

 

[AcerComputer]

Matthews looked terrible tonight, but glad the rest of the team showed up and was able to pull it out

 

[leafsfan5]

Huge win tonight, Leafs absolutely dominated from puck drop

The club appears to be getting back to controlling play. In the last week we've had 3 great performances (NSH, NYR, PIT), 1 even matchup (NYI) and then the typical bottom-feeder struggle game (CBJ). Overall a decent stretch of play

 

[alliuk12]

Great game. Good to see the other players putting up goals for the win

 

[93gilmour93]

12 goals in the last four periods and an overtime. Not too bad……

What an odd remark. It's perfectly normal to dislike a person you haven't personally met.

It's like disliking someone for their political views... he disagreed with how other people wanted to build the team, he did nothing to harm anyone.

It is really weird. I think people who hate people for their political views are one of the dumbest things possible.

One of the most overrated players in the league.

 

[Enniskillen]

Dominant from start to finish with Matthews out. Nice to see.
McMann finally got his well-deserved first goal!

Surprised, thought you would rip Knies for fighting.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Martin Jones for Conn Smythe?

Not sure we'd win that trade.

 

[ToneDog]

Knies looked amazing tonight. The team is starting to push back. Tavares actually got his hands dirty giving it to 87.

He's done it before, just picked a better partner this time

 

[Jacquestrapless]

Just needing a top4 D now

 

[MCR74]

According to a Sportsnet article, Kyle circled this one on his calendar.

I wonder if he's erasing that circle now.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Pittsburgh is in a world of hurt. I doubt they make the playoffs this season. Or next. If they can't make it when Crosby/Malkin still playing at a high level, what will happen when they drop off or retire?

 

[tmlms13]

Domi-Marner look good together. Makes sense, both smart players.

Makes sense because they dominated the OHL together with Christian Dvorak & Matthew Tkachuk

 

[MCR74]

Looks about right. Resembles the kid who served me this morning.
