GDT: Leafs @ Sens - 7pm - TSN

[TheBeastCoast]

Every single team does a drop pass for a reason. It's a good strategy. I always find it funny when people think it doesn't work.

For sure. Just need to vary it up from time to time to not get predictable.

I’d love to see Grebenkin and A. Nylander shine tonight. I think they could be huge assets.

Knies Matthews Marner
Nylander Nylander McMann
Pacrioetty Tavares Grebenkin

Nasty top 9

 

[Puckstuff]

A.Nylander and Jarnkrok are pretty interchangeable imo. Both smallish Swedish forwards who can chip in 15 goals but don't offer much else. Jarnkrok might be a little better defensively but neither are elite on D. I think it will be hard for A.Nylander to make the team when they're paying Jarny 2.1.

Grebenkin can really pull that opponent head off still party. What!! He is a nasty competitor. Loves blood. Alexander Nylander has will have to learn more skating and not being pumped off the puck by weak guys. Nylander would play for some other team, but we have so much strength and honor like gladiator that he cannot fit in this armor. Unless we get injuries and bruises. Ridley Scott Gladiator II will show in theatres near you soon 2024. Its amazing.

Knies looking thicc lol.

+20 lbs over last years camp.

I might be one of the biggest haters of Jarnkrok but to call him a little better than A.Nylander at defence seems a bit disingenous. He's a top pker, and one of our go to guys for defence

If we kept him strictly fourth line winger + PK1 + out when we are up late come playoffs, I could live with that if we had the cap

Alex Nylander had a solid like 9 games last season, people are getting way too excited.

He's also on an AHL deal.

I disagree at that. The defense gap between nylander and Jarnkrok is a huge gap. In regards to offense Jarnkrok is “you see what you get” while nylander still might have more.

People talking about how poor our defense is. My experience is these are the games we defend the best. I bet we beat Ottawa's A group tonight

Thank you. It's like people don't know who Jarnkrok is because he was hurt so much last season

 

[Racer88]

I’m expecting a win

 

[SprDaVE]

Robertson made some very good plays right there.

 

[LeafsFan89]

This PP seems more intense than our usual PP lol.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Robertson made some very good plays right there.

Looks confident

 

[Aashir Mallik]

Watching A Nylander skate is so confusing

It’s very very similar to W nylander

Handles the puck like Willy after a 6 pack

Handles the puck like Willy after a 6 pack

Puckhandling isn’t there but the stride length, and the mechanics look very similar loool

 

[SprDaVE]

Decent looks for Greb, had a miscue on a pass though that led for a chance the other way

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Mattinen seems to skate well for a big guy. I wouldn't mind one of the minor league guys taking a run at Cousins tonight tbh.

 

[SprDaVE]

Leafs have been breaking out so much better today. You can see a lot more north south puck movement

 

[Aashir Mallik]

Not surprised cousins in involved in any scrums

Hopefully he doesn’t run away if something happens like he always does

 

[SprDaVE]

What a bullet from Steeves

 

[HockeyVirus]

lol Ottawa still is not sniffing the playoffs with their goalies

 

[Cleetus]

Steeves

 

[notbias]

I hope someone tees off on Cousins this game, such a rat.
