GDT: Leafs vs the “best team in the North”

[Raym11]

alright, not often you can say it could be a 7-0 game in the 1st period without exaggerating

 

[dethszn]

Did Nylander just give up on the play after he missed his shot? wtf?

 

[PromisedLand]

two posts price got horseshoe up his behind

 

[MattySnipes]

Wow c'mon man bare down

 

[Critical13]

Kerfy has been cursed, only realistic explaination.

 

[mikeyz]

Why is Kerfoot still on this team?

 

[Morgs]

Will was mad he didn't get any PP time so he needed to create a ridiculous chance.

Anyone complaining about his points lately needs to look at chances like that and wonder who cursed him

 

[Raging Bull]

Good period. Haven't given up much at all to the Habs these last two games.

 

[garce]

Worrisome to be up by only one after dominating

 

[Lainehasaweirdface]

Engvall has been very.. not good. Falling for very simple fakes and feigns that you can see coming from a mile away. Constantly in poor body position to engage in puck battles

 

[18leafsfan18]

It’s a travesty that Joe Bowen isn’t the tv play by play man.

Yeah these guy not anywhere in the same league

 

[The Man with a Plan]

Prefer Gary Roberts

You put Roberts out there with AM and Mitch...its a cup run. If only.

Tavares and Nylander line does nothing once again.

Kerfoot missing an easy tap in.

Matthews and Marner are the only ones getting any shots on net.

 

[Critical13]

The Habs D can hit but that’s about it really.

Matthews will score a couple tonight, there's no way he isnt upset with himself after those chances

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

The Leafs weren't going to bury Montreal in the first period anyway. Keep playing like that and this will be a win

 

[Wendelstache]

Mikeyev may have been able to finish that Kerfoot chance.

 

[leafsfan5]

Should be 4-0 us

 

[Melo Meds]

Montreal has played 3 in 4, they don’t have their legs and we are skating and passing well, the Leafs need to capitalize and bury them. Dominating first period, we should be up by four.

 

[Dave92]

What an annoying period of domination. Hope we survive the game management calls.

2018/2019: 1.58 goals/60 | 2.87 points/60 | 1.06 individual expected goals/60 | 53.3 cf% | 53.4 xGF%
2019/2020: 0.81 goals/60 | 1.8 points/60 | 0.84 ixg/60 | 53.4 cf% | 52.1 xGF%
2021: 0.32 goals/60 | 1.6 points/60 | 0.63 ixg/60 | 51.9 cf% | 53.1 xGF%

Those numbers were posted by can'tlostwithmatthews the other day. They're concerning.

The Gm will have to deal with this at some point - I am not disagreeing with you - he is a diminishing talent .... My personal feeling is this signing was unnecessary and created a crap show with the younger tlaent in terms of contract exe[expectations which wonder boy capitulated too

 

[SprDaVE]

Price has an horseshoe around him tonight.

Tavares and Nylander line does nothing once again.

Kerfoot missing an easy tap in.

Who gave kerfoot that tap in, nylander hit the post, AM and MM got the whole PP and did nothing with it really, the big 4 have been fine this period they just couldn’t convert

 

[mcleafs]

The Habs offence is absolutely wretched. Just Hail Mary point shots over and over. Still, all it can take is a bounce, so boys still gotta push.

I have a feeling the Habs D will pinch like crazy in the 2nd.
