Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose 3-1

[BertCorbeau]

The Leafs couldn't handle the puck tonight and make clean passes. The Oilers played well enough defensively to beat that.

That being said the Leafs played a strong defensive game, and lost on a couple of bad bounces. Andy was solid.

Also the refs suck.

Need the stars to be sharper offensively.

Actual disgusting officiating

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Team is still a joke. What else is there to say. 1 goal against EDM lol.

Montreal is for sure a better team than we are imo

Wtf Spezza

Marner was complete trash. JT not far behind. Rest of the forwards were pretty embarrassing. If we're "tired" 5 games in, god help this fragile team.

However, Keefe is the biggest loser tonight. Pulling the goalie when we had no possession and no chance at possession is the dumbest thing I've seen in a while.

The 11 forwards experiment needs to end, NOW. Lehtonen has looked horrible and constantly juggling the lines has destroyed any offensive chemistry.

The power play resulting in the GWG was complete shit, but we should've never let this game be close at all. Can't always blame the refs for us not being good enough to beat a bad team.

 

[Mats13]

Great win for the refs.

Absolute garbage

 

[trogdor]

I want my night back

 

[JayfromNB1219]

Well that was a nice “welcome back to real life” game
Good god it felt like watching a bantam rep game with the passing

 

[PromisedLand]

Clog neutral zone, trap and watch leafs offense dry up faster than paint on a very hot day


#Dubas still SUCKS

Keefe needs to be better. forcing vesey on the 2nd line is beyond STUPID

 

[Divine]

Refs got paid well tonight. They weren’t even trying to be subtle.

Phantom call on Marner.

Leafs tie it?

Phantom call on Muzzin. Lol.

 

[TimeZone]

Two bad teams playing bad hockey with bad officiating.

Good stuff.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Garbage game. Cycle around the outside all game, nobody willing to go to the net or shoot.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Wtf Spezza

The puck was rolling

 

[CincoHolio]

I wan't my 2.5 hours back.

 

[daner]

Personally I’m just tired of watching Hyman lose possession and fall all the time.

 

[nobody]

Refs making some side money on the Leafs, I see. This has been ongoing for 4-5 years now, can't be just a coincidence.

 

[Byron Bitz]

Neither team deserved points tonight. Edmonton looks like they will be battling Ottawa for last in the division. Another prime year of Mcdavid and Drai wasted.

 

[Voodoo Child]

This game was sloppy and boring as hell - we didn't look great, but the Oilers hardly did either, though to be fair they dogged us on the fore check and shut it down when they needed to.

I was beginning to think 'maybe Matthews isn't scoring because he isn't getting any p***y', then he scores.

Mikheyev looking good on the PK, tenacious.

The penalty the Oilers got their second goal on was bullshit but the fact remains that Muzzin needs to pull his head out of his ass.

Kerfoot continues to be a revelation.

Willy looked shifty and confident with the puck.

Vesey killed like three good cycles for Willy and JT.

I hope Joe is ok but he doesn't need to play with Matthews and Marner.

You can't blame Freddy for either goal but again he hovers around 0.900. It's a mojo thing, team plays scared in front of him.

 

[Leafy Undergrowth]

Feels good, man.

No, wait. It's that other feeling.

 

[uncleben]

Blargh.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Again, same issues as in the play in against Columbus. Nobody other than the top 4 forwards can score. Kappy and AJ couldn't score either but they were replaced by crappier, older, slower players.

 

[Alerion]

The Leafs were unlucky and screwed by a terrible call, but also played like shit. Edmonton was the better team.

1/10.

 

[HarryLime]

I'm not saying they played well, but the winning goal was scored on a powerplay, where 1 Oiler tripped the other lol. Like, we had just tied the game and then that happened. They also gave Marner a penalty for touching someone....

Not a good game, but when you lose on a PP that was not a penalty it's BS

 

[Jacquestrapless]

Babcock is just holding the offense back so they can work on their defense, is all.

 

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

Edmonton plays such a clean game man.
