GDT: Leafs @ Panthers - 7pm - Knies era begins

[93gilmour93]

Maurice is letting them hear it lol

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Great learning experience these 3 games are going to be for Knies.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Ekblad is a moron.
Extra sauce for the new kid.

 

[rdogg]

Knies will learn a lot from playing these regular season games! I like what I see from him.

If Robertson took that hit he'd be out for 6 months

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Oh f*** Sammy stretched fast again and looked laboured imo

 

[Griffin76]

He looks great on a straight line w/o the puck, but when there's a puck he has to control, story becomes a little different

I'm guessing it's a little bit because of nerves. He looked great in the championship game. He's got what 10 minutes of NHL playing time. I think he'll be fine.

 

[DarkKnight]

Sam looked sore there on that save.

 

[Primary Assist]

Hot take of the century, but I'd like to see Knies get a little more seasoning before drawing in for the postseason. His skating isn't a strength at this level so he'll really need to master positioning to be the goal scoring mid sixer we know he can be. I'd also like to see a more active stick in the o zone - even if he's not F1 on the forecheck trying to maintain pressure I'd like to see him raising a little more hell if we can hem them in

 

[fahad203]

Sammy again looked discomfort there

 

[Dave92]

Team looks bad yet again heading I to the playoffs.

If Sammy gets hurt that's a wrap.

 

[therealkoho]

Knies with about 8.5 min of ice time so far

3 mins of eeesh
5.5 of yeah that was ok

No chance he starts the playoffs

This is madness.

 

[dubplatepressure]

Sammy again looked discomfort there

Yeah he’s either got bad body language or he looks sore

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Matthews!

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Knies plays the game Robertson tries to. Let's see if his frame allows him to get away with it at the NHL level

He plays a pretty normal game for a player of his size. Robertson is the outlier I'd say

 

[HockeyVirus]

This is madness.

THIS IS SAMMY

 

[keonsbitterness]

Hahahahaha, we rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Cleetus]

99 points for our magical player! and Matthews scores!

 

[fahad203]

40th goal

 

[Steven1562]

Sick edges by Marner. Matthews with the slick hands.

 

[9Iron]

99 baby

 

[Primary Assist]

Thank you Papi!!! Perennial 40 goal scorer

 

[blue stick]

Matty!!!

 

[MSZ]

That's a good playoff style goal.
