Woll was Wollful tonight but they won, not the slaughter uthstbyou I wanted but it was good to see the depth guys actually produce Bunting, Kampf and Kase all with goals we need more of that

Didn't deserve the win but it's two points. Nylander benched or hurt?
Benched… he deserved it but it leaves me with some questions:
Where was this benching for Marner in the first 10 games of the season?

where was this benching for Matthews in his first 10 games, no actually his entire career?

They have had worse this season and not been benched

even the press conference, keefe just said nylander had a higher level he could get to, didn’t get much credit for being the best forward on this team

it looks kinda like nylander is the engvall of our big 4 in keefes eyes
 
Absolute trash effort by the Leafs today. Quite frankly, I think this was worse than the Pittsburgh game... At least in that game they can use the excuse of not trying after a while.

They tried today, and just sucked. Didn't deserve even 1 point, never mind a regulation win.

I feel bad for Woll. He deserved much better, but at least he got his first win out of it. He was one of the main reasons we won today, and that is not a good thing when he gave up 4 goals on 27 shots.

Sink or swim moment for him today. Get him exposed to the "Leafs way" and see how he handles it. He got the win that's all you can ask.
 
ugly, ugly game

but congrats Woll! really nice moment for him and his family.

and nice clutch goal from Rielly

Willy didn't play well but not sure why he's the only one in the 'core four' that is subject to any accountability
Engvall gets all his shifts like he carried the team for the first 15 games. Nylander benched. Embarrassing. If he's hurt ignore this.
 
Sometimes we are a tire fire ... no clue how to shut teams down or protect a lead.
And every NHL team knows it and thinks they can come back on us ...

But yeah, great win ... and congrats Woll!

I watched Keefe's post-game interview last night and when the reporters seemed to glow about Nylander, Keefe didn't quite sing their praises. Doesn't surprise me he chose Nylander to pick on in this one. Matthews and Marner have had much worse games this season and weren't benched.
