Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose In Columbus

[Aashir]

Not many goalies will look good behind the defense the way it has played of late.

That’s bullshit

we gave up nothing today apart from the first goal and Campbell spotted them 3

the other guy saved exact same shot laine had from Matthews

Campbell can’t even out play an ahler

 

[BodaciousBeefBazooka]

they tied it up late and showed just that, campbell was the sole reason we lost.

Spezza shows balls and heart. Not the team come on man.

 

[Maplebeasts]

Wont be too mad at Campbell on the winner.. that was a heck of a shot that Matthews has to block.. the second and third goal we’re woof

He doesn't get a pass for that when he lets in that 2nd goal in the same game. Hell even the third goal he probably should have had.

 

[BayStBullies]

Campbell is the only reason we lost

he choked
He choked so hard it almost makes game 7 performances from other goalies passable

Too bad mrazek is worse

woll and hutch and kallgren we need one of them

Did you miss Dermott giving them a free shot with cover? The free breakaway? The only goal on Campbell was through the legs. Even the last one, Matthews thought he was Dermott.

 

[PromisedLand]

Does dubas know what a "contender" looks like? i hope he does and he doesnt mortgage the future.

Here is hoping Tanenbaum vetos any mortgaging the future move; don't trust shanahan either

 

[therealkoho]

That's 3 and that's the end of it, They get the W against the Wild

 

[Bomber0104]

Houston, we have a problem.

 

[Knies iT]

People ripped management for not signing Campbell early, now want Campbell flipped

Hindsight aficionados. Honestly, now is when you sign him.

 

[3blizzard4]

Leafs losing is a good revenue generator for HFBoards.

Brings out all the deplorables in Out of Town threads everywhere.

 

[Cleetus]

dont really care if Jack is a nice guy, just stop the f***ing puck... just awful. we are f***ed without a goalie

 

[2 Slick]

Campbell is shot, been trash the last 5-6 week.

Since December 1st, he's been under .890% and well over 3 GAA.

Try almost 3 months, not 5-6 weeks.

 

[Dekes For Days]

Deserved to win that one.

We need a freakin' save.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Our goaltending has been pathetic. We’ll go nowhere with it at this level.

 

[Smif]

Jack screened on two and flubbed the 5 hole....arrghhh

The CLB goalie had players all over him, he still came up with the the screenwd saves.

 

[ToneDog]

Rittich just beat Florida.

 

[killer1980]

Well, the shopping list is clear:
- Head coach
- Goalie
- 1-2 Defenders

Don't forget GM & V.P.

 

[LastOne2100]

hereeee we go, tonight’s game was solely on goaltending. Campbell couldn’t make a key save. THey gave them a 2-1 lead heading into the 3rd and they outshot CBJ and extended pressure

We will never ever have the better goaltending no matter who we play in the playoffs.

If our entire plan is to outgoalie the other team, we won't go very far.

This is what happens when Dubas has to get the best he can at the almost zero dollars he left himself. Andersen -> Mrazek was a straight downgrade. Campbell has been a career borderline backup. The fact we've gotten so much out of him is the miracle.

 

[scotian1]

Laine with an uncontested shot from there that Matthews didn't attempt to block. Not all Campbell's fault on that one. Laine will score on any goalie from that close.

 

[Aashir]

Did you miss Dermott giving them a free shot with cover? The free breakaway? The only goal on Campbell was through the legs. Even the last one, Matthews thought he was Dermott.

The first goal is another unscreened shot, but it’s a nice one
The second shot is a unscreened shot that was from 40 feet out
The second shot is a five hole slider that beats him
The third shot Campbell gets beat cleanly agian

he can’t stop a beach ball

 

[jimmycarter]

Campbell lost this one

 

[Maplebeasts]

Not many goalies will look good behind the defense the way it has played of late.

That's bullshit. They gave up nothing outside of the first goal that was dangerous.

 

[stickty111]

Soon to be four. Minnesota is no joke.

Glad to see you happy since the Leafs are losing.

 

[theTTC]

Well, the shopping list is clear:
- Head coach
- Goalie
- 1-2 Defenders

All to be acquired by the same GM who brought us the past and present coaches, goalies, and soft little D?

 

[Leafidelity]

Said it in the game thread and ill say it again - get league average goaltending and that is another win.

 

[wingman75]

Leafs were the better team overall, but the PP was silent, the goaltending was terrible and the forwards didn't get too involved in the dirty areas. CLB was the harder working team without a doubt.

Minney on Thursday. STL light essentially. Yay. This could turn into a real slide.

Also, great to see all the pushback from getting embarassed last night /s

There are no additions that can fix this. The current roster has to step up... Even then with this goaltending not sure it matters. Maybe the players are thinking that too lol
