GDT: Leafs vs Flyers (note: Thursday 2:00 PM puck drop)

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Bad period. Lotta game left though.

 

[Burnie97]

Decent powerplay. Just have to start putting it on net.

They'll be better in the 2nd.

 

[Dave92]

5 forwards so the can take turns taking wrist shots from the Blueline.

 

[Teeder Keon]

pretty predictable start TBH. Gunna need to find a purpose in this one. Maybe going down a goal will end up being a blessing in disguise. They just don't look engaged at all.

Bruins seem to find purpose in their games this year , no matter what the circumstances are …

 

[Ianturnedbull]

5 forwards so the can take turns taking wrist shots from the Blueline.

Ridiculous. Keefe, please stop this nonsense. WTF is Bunting adding to this PP?! Put 2 D back on the PP.

They making up for all the times Rielly wouldn’t shoot from there

I gotta give you credit bud. You called this sluggish start in the pre-game thread.

 

[leafsfan5]

Need Morgan back soon for the PP

 

[93gilmour93]

Outshot them 11-3 in the first but it felt like a meh period. Let’s turn it up in the second period. If the leafs play their game Philly is toast.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

well lets hope they show up after the 1st period. Hopefully they will restart and get this out of the system.

 

[Macallan18]

Tavares is hard to watch.

Guys old farts need their afternoon nap cut him some slack

 

[Leaffan1991]

Ridiculous. Keefe, please stop this nonsense. WTF is Bunting adding to this PP?! Put 2 D back on the PP.

Kaberle to McCabe boom automatic slap shot goal

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Kaberle to McCabe boom automatic slap shot goal

Honorable mention: Dave Ellett to Todd Gill.

 

[wingman75]

Other than the PP goal against, didn't give up much. Definitely controlled the game overall.

I'd rather not have 5 forwards on the PP, but I don't really care. The PP needs to generate momentum at a minimum.

Might be a tight one, but still figure they find a way to grind one out.

 

[Macallan18]

Honorable mention: Dave Ellett to Todd Gill.

Ellet underrated, Gill was better when he still fought

Why would we go to 2 D on the PP? Have we done that once this year?

I'm still at work listening to Joe Bowen's call on radio.

 

[Jojalu]

Bruins seem to find purpose in their games this year , no matter what the circumstances are …

Yes and no.

They have looked sluggish a lot this year.

Let's not make up narratives. No team evet has looked good in every period.

 

[Aashir]

Sometimes PP2 does Liljegren and Gio, especially last year, but yea we usually go 1 D

 

[93gilmour93]

Ridiculous. Keefe, please stop this nonsense. WTF is Bunting adding to this PP?! Put 2 D back on the PP.

When the whole team is healthy

PP1 - Papi Marner Nylander Rielly Liljegren

PP2 - JT Bunting Jarnkrok Kerfoot Sandin

Timmy has the big shot that should be tried on PP1

 

[Teeder Keon]

Yes and no.

They have looked sluggish a lot this year.

Let's not make up narratives. No team evet has looked good in every period.

GLG
Of course not every period ……..
Cheers
