Post-Game Talk: Leafs remind the Oilers and their fans who their Papi is

[Warden of the North]

That was the worst reffing I've seen this season. They lost control of the game.

Aside from that, I'm very happy and surprised they pulled it back together after going down 3-1. McDavid and that PP are no joke.

He gets a boost from playing with Acciari.

They compliment each others games pretty well

Oiles are softer than toilet paper. Very dislikable team, go back to Arctic circle or whatever.

The boys got one for Soup, maybe he gets another start now.

Big guns woke up, Marner was an alien tonight. nice game by the 4th line. Especially Acciari. Murray was mainly poop with some timely saves thrown in. Shouldn’t have been that close a game. Refs tried their best though.

The team overall played well. Lafferty and Acciari did exactly what they were brought up to do
Really not sure what ZAR brings anymore

Marner was again the MVP
Murray was just trash. This game should have been a total lopsided blow out. But Murray felt otherwise

 

[Isaac Nootin]

Keefe needs to take a fine regarding the refereeing. Enough is enough, especially when it comes to Bunting.

Would galvanize the team.

 

[The Hanging Jowl]

Would have been 7-2 or 7-3 at worst with Samsanov in net. This *has* to be Murray's last start. Woll is a much better option as the backup.

Welcome Oiler lurkers.

Stay a while.

Be right back.

Hahaha - you'll have to wait for a few hours. I think most of our fan base checked out when you went up 6-3.

*Terrible reffing tonight.
*Murray...I don't know, but he does manage to hold out some good attempts when it matters.
*Mitch Marner is a good hockey player.
*Great PP tonight.
*Very happy to see Acciari rewarded.
*McCabe, excellent addition.

*Overall solid defensive performance by the team. We've had a couple of these lately. For all the grief Keefe has taken for the 7 D line-up, I can't fault the play of any of them tonight, Edmonton does have some talent and we were, for the most part, able to force them to the outside and keep them from the more dangerous areas of the ice. I applaud our Centers for playing down low and giving the D some bump pass options to help relieve pressure. That stretch of our boys on fire in the second was a pleasure to watch. Good game, two teams trying to get their playoff mojo going meant some pretty high intensity hockey, marred by some awful officiating. GLG!

That Oilers defense is going nowhere

 

[Cleetus]

Thread title needs more Marner in it.

well not in the title but.... lol

 

[Menzinger]

The Oilers are a tier below.

 

[GQS]

Is it correct to say that Marner is the Leafs' best and most important player this season along with Nylander being a close second? Both of those players making things happen almost everytime they're on the ice. Matthews as amazing as he can be is missing that great speed that would make him even more dangerous and lethal.

 

[Burnie97]

Great win. The big boys... everyone of them played well. Need that in the playoffs. Really if Sammy is in net it's probably even more of a beat down. Acciari played another great game. Really liking McCabes game.

Don't do it often but it was fun to go read the GDT and post game in the Oilers board lol. Lots of great takes. Very salty.

On to a game at home against Buffalo. Fighting for their playoff lives. Should be a good one.

This win feels great. Go Leafs Go.

 

[Apex Predator]

Great game by the leafs! Stayed in there and worked there way back. Bad game by Murray. If it isn’t clear for Keefe yet that Samsonov should be the game 1 starter this game should help clear that up.

ZAR was fine with that role. He had the least TOI with 1 assist.

 

[Superstar]

What a dogwater team!

They know they have nothing except the PP and the odd rush chance by McD so they take any fall they can looking to get on the PP.

Disgraceful. Reminds me of that trash game Emilio had the Mighty Ducks play where everyone was shaking their heads.

It's ridiculous...the Oilers are bunch of cheatin' divers...it doesn't get anymore obvious than on HNIC...they have nothing without the powerplay...the team needs to be called out and players fined...it's no wonder McDavid and Draisaitl are setting records on the powerplay.
