GDT: Leafs vs Oilers

[leafsfan5]

I get nervous with this sort of game. Every indication says we should wipe the floor with them and that's exactly the kind of game that we don't win. Hope I'm wrong. I suspect we will get goalied tomorrow.

Thankfully Edmonton doesn't have the ability to "goalie" anyone, Smith/Koskinen both suck

 

[saffronleaf]

can they postpone the hyman tribute to the next time he's facing the Leafs in SBA? When there are fans...?

 

[budzz]

I heard Babcock as HC , Tortz and Keenan as Associates

I like this. Tortz should be the goalie coach though, THAT would be fun to watch

I bought tickets for this one in November thinking I would be seeing two of the best teams in the Nhl. Yeah. Never mind. At least one of them will be there. Hoping Hyman is enjoying that brisk Alberta air.

Is Mcdavid out for sure tomorrow?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Please help us. Wishing the Leafs the most dominate win of their season

The Leafs have recent wins of 8-3 over Colorad, 6-0, over Ottawa 5-1 over these very same Oilers so if you get what you want You're asking for a 7-1 or 8-0 score.

You realize that right?

Why stop there. Make it an even 10

Hoping to see the Leafs absolutely dominate and blow out the Oilers big time. There is no team I hate more than them.

That would be nice. A complete blow out!

Is Auston in tomorrow or does he need to test negative again tomorrow?

They'll definitely test him a 2nd time and if he fails he wouldn't play. Not sure what the official rule is tho.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

So 7 d if no Matthews and Kase or do we bring up Clifford?

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Is Kase out for sure?

 

[ACC1224]

Many seem to think this will be a blow out. Seems overly optimistic to me, hopefully I'm wrong.

 

[HogTown06]

Local radio phone ins mentioning Babcock,and Maurice.

Turn off that radio, quickly!!!

 

[al secord]

Oilers blaming the coach again this time around? Not even the great Bruce Boudreau could succeed with a lineup that bad and terrible goaltending.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Yeah Babcock will be the solution there lol
McJesus will want out even more

 

[BrannigansLaw]

McDavid out tonight for the Oilers. This should be fun

 

[ACC1224]

McDavid out tonight for the Oilers. This should be fun

Confirmed, 100% out?
What about Matthews?

 

[BudForLife]

Yeah Babcock will be the solution there lol

Ya but Hyman gets reunited with his dad

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Confirmed, 100% out?
What about Matthews?

May have posted too hastily. I’m not sure if it’s 100% for either.

No worries, thought I missed something.

I'm assuming McDavid will have had an additional test like Matthews did but that may be wrong.

Murphy's law. Expect Edmonton to win tonight.

 

[Auston Marlander]

Did you say the same against Ottawa, or the last time we played Edmonton?

Looks like Matthews is good to go. No word if he received a 2nd negative PCR test but regardless, this is clearly good news. Nothing officially reported for McDavid that I have seen.

Leafs' Matthews on ice at practice, plans on playing vs. Oilers - TSN.ca

EDIT: Yea, McDavid is out as per TSN / Oilers Twitter. McDavid, Barrie, Ryan placed in COVID protocol - TSN.ca
