Post-Game Talk: Leafs send Dubois and the Jets home crying. Matthews hits 50! Leafs win!

[Aashir]

not sure how to feel about kallgren's performance.

Heard he was shakey early on and looked throughout

Bad 3rd goal

Made saves he should’ve after that, Made 3-4 huge saves he shouldn’t have

I think he had like a .88-.89 but I’d rate his game a B-

He really showed up when we needed

 

[tmlms13]

I know he's really humble and people like that and all, but I am kind of disappointed in him for not doing an extra stand & wave. He's got to know Leaf fans don't get to celebrate stuff like this very often.

He was dangerous all game but you just knew he was going to get the empty netter. 50 goals in 62 games! That is amazing and I have to think very few have achieved that in less games who aren't Gretzky/Lemieux/played during the 80s or early 90s.

 

[Buds17]

We have our fourth 50 goal scorer in franchise history after a long wait! First centre to pull off the feat too. I'll take that win as well! Happy to see Giordano make the scoresheet for the first time as a Leaf.

-18 looks good on Scheifele

 

[Morbo]

first of I imagine a plethora of 50 goal seasons as Matthews enters his prime here.

congrats to Papi.

It's nights like these that help me to remember that the city of Winnipeg exists

Just leaving the Scotiabank arena now, it was f***ing epic. I think the roof came close to coming off this place when Matthews put number 50! McDavid and Draisaitl suck. Take that!

To all the lurking Edmonton Oilers fans, f*** you, your team and your garbage franchise.

Winnipeg loses their Stanley cup game I guess.

Isn;'t the series tied?

 

[Knies iT]

Tonight, Dubois broke the previous record (also his) for most fights turned down in a single NHL game.

 

[Tak7]

Fun night.

 

[Jacquestrapless]

Refs saved Dubois. Simmonds would have walked him like a dog again.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Isn;'t the series tied?

Last game of the season is the tie breaker.

 

[Mitchy]

lmao, Jets are a garbage team and tried to goon it up and instead ended up looking like the Leafs' b*tches.

Great win

 

[Aashir]

Refs saved Dubois. Simmonds would have walked him like a dog again.

Dubois wasn’t dropping the gloves even if it was Marner. This guy isn’t built like that. He always runs away

Willie beasting
AM with his 50th
refs getting us back in the game after a slow start
Lilly with a one timer
Soup man on fire
and Kallgren goaling the jets

good night

 

[djdev]

Honestly 50 doesn't do it for me.

60 is the minimum I need.

65 would be perfect.

the crazy thing is hes on pace for like 79 over the past 45 games lol

 

[Squiffy]

not sure how to feel about kallgren's performance.

He made that one right leg kicking out save early to stay in the game that was probably the turning point. He was good.

 

[BackPassChampions]

Lovin' the memes, guys.

 

[CincoHolio]

Congrats Papi!! Dude deserved better than the EN'r but still an amazing feat. Love that this guy is a Leaf

 

[Pi]

look at that EV Offence and EV Defence. This isn't supposed to be possible, being this good at both ends. We're so lucky

Yeah, I love me some Draisaitl and think he's easily one of the top 4 players in this league with McDavid, Matthews, MacKinnon but Matthews is the best goalscorer in the league.

To put his career numbers in perspective....if Matthews doesn't score a goal for the next 150 games, he's still ahead of Draisaitl in goals by one with the same # of games.

546 games... 248 goals. 396 games... 249 goals.

Matthews is also ahead of Draisaitl in career points per game as well by a smidge.

 

[Crazy Monkey]

Satisfying win. Jets aren't in our league. Crowd was buzzing tonight. Feels good man

 

[dubey]

Winnipeg sucks lol

 

[zeke]

If you are like that why not just go all the way for 70

It’ll be tough, very tough even

But if our pp stays like this and Marner keeps being Marner, I could see at least a pace reaching high 60s

Had he not had surgery I fully believe he’d be pushing for 70 this year

Oh he would be.

But 60 is well within reach without even doing more than he's doing.

65 would take him getting super hot tho.
