GDT: Leafs @ Senators | Jan 15 | Part 2

[IPS]

Seriously this Rielly-Brodie pairing is awful defensively...

 

[ToneDog]

I am not going to freak about this, gotta maintain the long view on the season.

We should know what this team is made up tomorrow night.

 

[IronHalen]

What a f***ing save.

Although really really helped by our staunch defending.

I mean to be fair... the net was wide open and the puck was shot at a sprawling fred..

 

[Auston Escobar]

Thank god that was Gudbranson

 

[wingman75]

The only take away from this game for me is, and I am pretty sure we already knew this, if you bring zero effort even against a weak NHL team you will lose.

Almost every Leaf player through two periods looked like they would rather be ANYWHERE else tonight. Awesome.

 

[Chief Berube]

Brodie and Rielly are not working. Jumbo with Matty and Marner is not working. Bogo is okay. Andersen is okay but our D is still not there. Here is my first change.

Hyman- Matthews- Marner
Lil Jimmy-JT- Willie
Jumbo-Kerfoot-Soup
Barabanov-Spezza-Simmonds

Rielly- Lehtenon/Sandin (Yes I know... no experience.. worth a try with both)
Muzzin- Brodie
Dermott- Sandin/Lethenon
Bogo

 

[SeaOfBlue]

What a f***ing save.

Although really really helped by our staunch defending.

He looks like Reimer right now.

 

[Ziggdiezan]

Yikes

Thornton -3
Simmonds -3
Matthews -3
Reilly -4
Brodie -3

Brodie has been heavily involved in multiple goals against, at least 2 where he made the worst mistake

 

[Burnie97]

Is tomorrow night a must win already lol

 

[TMLeafer]

Another disastrous display of d-zone coverage bailed out by a big save.

 

[ceg195]

Another vote for Batherson

 

[Guided by Veseys]

It was Gudbranson so unfortunately that doesn’t affect the xgf %

 

[Amadeus]

We need to move on from Freddie after this year. I think we need the space and we should take a chance on Campbell. Freddie has provided slightly above average goaltending since last year.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Crap pass Zach

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

If we had a Tkachuk.... man.... he’d be a god in this town

 

[Primary Assist]

If only we got saves like that when it matters.

Like in a 2 goal game in the third period?

 

[Ziggdiezan]

Man does Matthews ever eat crosschecks

 

[TMLegend]

Marner looks absolutely awful tonight.

See, that's concerning. When are they going to get it?

as long as they get their covid pay

 

[Dave92]

And you're right Keefe and Babs shouldn't be mentioned in the same sentence, one is an NHL coach the other talks about hockey on TV.

I was thinking more along the lines of one is a Hall of Famer and the other is a joke.

 

[BigBlu]

1st Place in the Scotia Division!!!! Woot!!!!!

 

[Cleetus]

Freddy making Gudbranson look like a sniper..lol

no its the soft baby shit coverage that is going on in the leafs zone..... that is minor hockey coverage, horrible execution, and effort should be ashamed...

Will is beating skill

No, I’m going to judge his two games thus far and state that my opinion is based on two games thus far, thanks

Saying he's giving Barrie a run for worst defenseman ever in a Leafs uniform (which is LOL worthy to begin with and I despised Barrie last year), and then saying "I know its only been 2 games" is not a good or fair evaluation.

He has had a great 2-way career with Calgary and he will be one of our better defensman throughout the year. Its game 2 after an extended layoff and no preseason.
