Leafs Lose 5 1

Really have to hope that Stolarz comes back and is able to pick up where he left off or at least close to it

I like Rielly. Come at me.

Ian was a good defenseman.
Tough and I liked him.

Leafs could use someone like him today to round out their corps.

im a CBJ Fan. Toronto was clearly the better team tonight IMO Elvis had a career game. why did you guys pull the goalie on the 4 on 4 with 8 mins left? toronto was clearly dominating the whole game thought that was a weird coaching thought. this would be a fun 1st round match up! GOOD LUCK THE REST OF THE YEAR!

Thanks.

Yes, weird decision to pull our goalie, although considering how well Elvis was playing I can see it a bit - if we had scored then it may have changed the whole complexion of the game.

And thanks for NOT saying "come in peace" - I hate the implication that we can't tell by the post.

Bottom line we were better team last night and every once in a while you get goalied in hockey .. but this hildebeast is not even remotely close to playing nhl hockey .. he looks like he is off balance standing in his net .. we can't play a kid like that anymore .. that experiment needs to be terminated

Another disappointing loss due to our poor goaltending.

Once again, our top scorers were dominated by the opponents goaltending.

I'm also sick and tired of the opponents bringing their Toronto area born players to Toronto whom then proceed to play way over their heads because they have family and friends in attendance. A few times last night I wanted to see a few beers poured over the heads of these family and friends. Go f***ing support these players in their HOME RINKS.

Yup, I'm a sore loser !!!

The score was flattering to Columbus but indicative of how we struggle against hard working teams.
I don’t know how that can be fixed but somebody needs to figure it out before the playoffs.

Woll sucked!!!!

From the bench....

Good response.

I didnt mind pulling the goalie to try and get a goal at a key moment. Had they scored they'd put the goalie back in a try to score 2 more in 7 minutes or so. Maybe get a pp goal then 6 on 5 ending. But they didnt score.

Got goalied by that same goalie again. Should have been up by 3 in the first. Those are irritating loses because it shows we haven’t got much better on getting in goalies faces and figuring them out in-game.

It was weird phrasing for sure. But it's January, Woll is injury prone, and already matched his career high in games played. I'm ok with them being cautious with him, and using weird phrasing to describe it. We are reading too much into the phrasing. We don't win last night with Woll in net anyway.

I agree, I'd you can't score then you're not going to win.

and PP sucked again. Its even more painful when you are watching in person.

Don't want to be too hard on Hildeby but the organization needs to hide him on the Marlies for a year and a half and just let him build his game. It's not fair to demand a performance level from a 23 year old, limited pro experience, but you want to nurture the prospect and not turn him into a Jonas Gustavsson style punchline.

According to one poster here, our PP was great, and we still have the second-best in the league.

(I may have accidentally implide that his idol wasn't perfect.)

Oh, for Leafs to win they would have had to score more than 1 goal?

Correct?

Team lost.
