GDT: Leafs @ Lightning HNIC

[Aashir]

if woll has over a .900 he has to be the starter

f*** Samsonov

 

[horner]

Don't trade our first it's going to be a good one

 

[Confucius]

Well the last goal was a rocket nobody is stopping that unless it hits them. Anyway, Woll’s chance to grab the bull by the horns.

 

[Macallan18]

Cmon 4 shots 3 goals, I could do that ffs

 

[Divine]

Samsonov had a .700 save percentage on the year on a 1 year contract but Keefe still won't split starts

Guys been absolutely trash since preseason. Taking Sammy to arb might be the best move the Leafs made all offseason

 

[PromisedLand]

i dont think we've paid enough money to matthews, marner and tavares.

gotta give them 5M more per year

 

[Larcos_Unal]

I wasn't planning on watching a horror flick tonight but here we are

 

[cyris]

Can we stop fighting about whether the goaltending or the team D are the problem. They are both terrible

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Jonas Johansson just made a save that Samsonov would've had no chance on

 

[Doublerum1975]

Ron Wilson's teams had way better defense than this.

3 goals 4 shots yeah it’s the defense

 

[TimeZone]

Sammy was good behind competent defence. Most good goalies who are not top 7 are playing behind good defensive teams like NJ VGK CAR COL.

This is a defence problem. Treliving needs to own this.

Samsonov had one good run in his career, he had so mediocre in Washington he wasn't even qualified.

He's now not even reacting to one time shots from the halfwall.

That is absolutely inexcusably terrible goaltending, there is no excuse.

 

[CapspaceKiller]

Knies has been great

 

[Sypher04]

Sammy was good behind competent defence. Most good goalies who are not top 7 are playing behind good defensive teams like NJ VGK CAR COL.

This is a defence problem. Treliving needs to own this.

This D on paper is marginally worse, if at all, versus the start of last season

 

[Menzinger]

Ron Wilson's teams had way better defense than this.

Honestly, If Burke had actually found Wilson an average goalie he probably could have squeaked into the playoffs

 

[LastOne2100]

lol Tavares muffin to the chest

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

3 goals on 4 shots and you wonder why I REFUSE to blame the defense

 

[Aashir]

Imagine getting a save like that, Samsonov could never

 

[MK78]

This is Raycroft/Toskala level goaltending

You mean like this? It's close!

 

[Leafs at Knight]

3 goals 4 shots yeah it’s the defense

I mean both can suck, and they do.

 

[Optimist]

Is there any room on the island for Samsonov?

 

[francis246]

Knies has looked like the leafs best player tonight. Why the f*** is Bertuzzi on the top line. Move Domi up to that line. Bertuzzi has done f*** all

 

[Geeve]

Leafs not converting prime scoring chances, classic playing desperate from behind.

 

[34]

This team is going to miss the playoffs.

Tavares is absolutely awful. Can he be any slower. It is an absolute sin that the leafs are going to lose Nylander for that loser.

 

[Shooter2x]

This team is not a mess. We just have some left over baggage from the previous regime. Left us with no goalie

 

[TheScandal89]

This is how a team is supposed to come out against the team that eliminated them, unlike us on Thursday.

And this is the reason that I was not really excited for the season, the D sucks and the goalies are even worse if Woll cant become #1

 

[MapleLeafs77]

Johansson has saved point blank chances that should have been goals. A goalie needs to do that. Samsonov needs to save something
