GDT: Leafs vs Bolts game 4

[wingman75]

He saw the opportunity and took it. I don't think he went down with that intent, but certainly came up with it.

I felt when I just saw the replay you could see him eyeing the opponent and timed his upward movement. So aware, always. Unfortunate if there was an injury.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

This game was over in the first minute. You just knew how it was going to go after that pathetic start.

Way to be ready to play boys!

 

[hamzarocks]

Jay McClement?

Tim Brent?

 

[TheDoldrums]

Anyone else feel that Rielly hit on Cirelli was timed? No intent, but just to take him out of that play.

Big injury potentially.

It's a huge potential injury. I don't know why more aren't talking about.

He's by far their best defensive player

 

[Superstar]

I like how game management has gone off the ref's window in a by giving Tamps 7 PP's to the Leafs' 2 in a 5-0 blow out.

Best way to guarantee no come back for Toronto and a Tampa Bay win!

 

[The Apologist]

I know we don't like excuses and we can't talk about shit like this but it's worth noting.
Games 1-3 PIM

Embarrassing.

 

[therealkoho]

Jay McClement?

I'll raise you David Steckel

 

[CelticDruid]

Bottom line is that Keefe didn't get his team ready

 

[Stolie the Goalie]

Just woke up. 5 down already!? What happened?

 

[KingsHockey24]

I'll raise you David Steckel

f*** it, Vesa Toskala.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Embarrassing.

Sorry. Gas happens.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Just woke up. 5 down already!? What happened?

Go back to bed

 

[All Mod Cons]

I'm no longer watching this series because of the reffing in game two. However, I looked at the stats/boxscore and what sticks out to me iis the 7 PPs for TB and 2 for the Leafs.

Also 5 goals on 19 shots of course.

The NHL may lose a life long fan. Has the game been this dirty from the Leafs perspective?

Leafs haven't shown up at all. They didn't have the puck the 1st 15 minutes. There's no way they could've caused a penalty on Tampa.

 

[Superstar]

Embarrassing.

It is really embarrassing...had the chance to put a strangle hold in the series and this is how they show up...Holl shouldn't start anymore...the guy is a liability out there.

No most of the penalties have been soft. Even the 2 leaf powerplays have been soft. Reffing is just atrocious. I’m trying to tough out a brutal game, and I’m getting more upset at the reffing than the Leafs playing absolute garbage hockey.

 

[LastOne2100]

Just woke up. 5 down already!? What happened?

They still haven't arrived at the arena.

Tampa is the only team on the ice.

 

[Griffin76]

Jay McClement?

Winnik

 

[The Apologist]

If you look at the big picture, 10.25mm in capspace.

50pt center vs 90pt center. Pretty big difference

 

[wingman75]

Embarrassing.

Right!? You lose by making them beat you... Not by whatever this is.

 

[hamzarocks]

I'll raise you David Steckel

I already skipped David Stekel on the

"4th line centers from the Phil Kessel era that sucked but leaf fans still liked because they blocked shot guys" with PK shot blocking legend

Timothy Brent

 

[PromisedLand]

If any leaf was confused about what Shanahan meant by "Killer instinct" they should re-watch this game on tape. Tampa is leading by 5 goals and they are blocking shots and not letting up. They are continuing to press.

 

[frizzer1]

I still think they could try a speed llne of Kerfoot , Nylander, and blackwell.
And put Tavares on the 4th line.

 

[TheShape]

Look at how different this lineup is from game 1, Keefe is over coaching again.

 

[Racer88]

This team will stay together regardless. Dubas can coast on the "best Leafs regular season ever" and losing to the back to back chanps to justify this mentally weak disaster of a team

Both him and invisible Shanny should be fired the next day if the they don’t win this series
