GDT: Leafs @ Flyers - Part 2

[leaffaninvancouver]

I really dont want to go to OT with this defense. I hope the leafs get another

We only get to use one defender in OT Reilly and Muzzin are pretty good. Zaitsev has looked good too. Until Dermott gets back we’d be better off playing 3 on 3..

 

[ToneDog]

Rielly and Ghost competing for who can be the biggest goat.

Might be settled in OT.

 

[Macallan18]

Ok this is better. Man I was worried we had no heart. This Flyer team is battling for their lives.

Very true. They are playing for their lives.

 

[The Kessel Run]

Wow. What was that backcheck on Philly’s 4th goal?

 

[Stephen]

I am PRETTY sure all of us love AM, thanks for the smart ass remark.

It is the fact he will be paid a HUGE part of our cap, and is ONLY a 70 point player who rarely looks engaged.

His talent is undeniable.

If he plays like he can, he is worth a blank cheque.

We can all be critical of Matthews but all we want to see is that consistent drive, play a little meaner, be solid defensively.

 

[Schooner]

Lol because he hasn’t been a blatant tire fire?

Expectations are quite low lol

 

[Burnie97]

Zaitsev actually made a few nice plays on that shift

 

[Man Bear Pig]

See how the Flyers D just rubs out our forwards and can get possession? Can our D please take note that this is in the job description?

The Flyers D is also a trainwreck in their own end.

 

[DopeyFish]

"Hyman gets on his high horse"

What?

 

[Macallan18]

Lol Hyman and Giroux quite the buddies

 

[Melo Meds]

You dont see Marner miss that pass often.

 

[La Masse]

Ill be shocked if we win this game

 

[SniperOnTheWing]

9pts in his last 8 games for Willy

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Millen praising Carter Hart coming right up.

It's getting silly at this point.

 

[Walshy7]

Haha. “Zach hyman gets on his high horse”

 

[Azazel]

We are outscoring our problems, which is nice and all right now but Dermott/Gardiner have to be back ASAP for us to survive in the playoffs

To be fair, right now we are only tied with our problems.

 

[LeafsLegendAkiBerg]

I'm saying, when TERM is part of the equation, Matthews is the highest paid player in the league.

I agree with you. If term is IGNORED (which would be a silly thing to do), McDavid makes more. I agree with you on that.

But what I wrote is that with TERM considered, Matthews is the highest paid player in the league.

What you wrote is factually incorrect and nonsensical. Just write "I hate Austin Matthews" it's shorter and to the point.

 

[Wendelstache]

this defense we have is a steaming pile.

 

[KobeBean143]

Here’s what happened?? Ya we saw that 10 mins ago dummy... you jush figured it out

 

[Swedish Gretzky]

LEAFS cant handle teams with size

 

[Kamiccolo]

Lol because he hasn’t been a blatant tire fire?

He's engaged, he's made a few nice defensive plays, he's playing physical (not just hitting he's boxing guys out and getting mean in 1 on 1 battles). What more can you ask for?

 

[BigGulpsEh]

Lol because he hasn’t been a blatant tire fire?

Sadly That’s the best we can hope for him at this point. for him not to be a tire fire

 

[The Kessel Run]

Andersen is terrifying me.

 

[The Legend]

Uh where was Ron going there

 

[Melo Meds]

Andy fighting the puck reminds me of Sparks

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

Andersen isn’t looking pretty but he’s getting it done.

 

[ULF_55]

My gawd both Leafs chase the man in the corner leaving the guy open in front.

It is hard to describe this as anything except a complete lack of awareness and/or coaching.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

"Hyman gets on his high horse"

What?

He thinks hes better than you while skating.

 

[DanM]

We can all be critical of Matthews but all we want to see is that consistent drive, play a little meaner, be solid defensively.

Agreed

All I want is him to play up to his potential consistently.

Play like he did pre-injury.
