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

[The Examiner]

Have a shot Spezza!

 

[DarkKnight]

4th line more effective than 3rd. Again.

 

[Melo Meds]

Big save by Andersen.

 

[TMLeafer]

Ah man extra pass

Big save by Freddy

 

[Pinto]

So Petan has been working on his skating a lot in the past year...

Exactly what I was thinking the last few shifts.

 

[lipstickjunkie]

I wish we had him
Just think about him on our 1st or 2nd line
I’m a fan of his and players like him

Agreed. Anderson would look amazing on that Tavares/Nylander line.

 

[2 Slick]

3rd line offensive blackhole, Tavares does nothing as usual and Spezza should've shot but instead throws it away.

 

[hamzarocks]

Man Petan can pass. You can see why he was such a profilic scorer in the WHL. Sucks his talent hasn't translated at the NHL level but he is playing great in the offensive zone on the 4th line right now

 

[Teeder Keon]

Thats what we said back when we signed Clarkson

Again , I’ll take Anderson over Clarkson

 

[LeafParade]

4th line more effective than 3rd. Again.

When Thornton comes back, it will be interesting to see who gets booted.
I don't want to touch the 4th line.

 

[Burnie97]

Nice save Andy

 

[saffronleaf]

Really would like to see more from our second line.

 

[IPS]

I just can’t picture how kerfoot is worth 3.5 for what he brings to this team

 

[Srsly]

I never thought I’d say this but I want to see what Spezza can do playing on one of the top 2 lines on the left. That pass to Boyd would have been a gorgeous chance for Matthews or Tavares.

 

[lottster14]

The lack of physicality in this league compared to even 5-10 years ago gets really annoying sometimes IMO

 

[The Examiner]

Habs best 2nd period team at +12.

Habs Vs Leafs in 2nd period -2

 

[KaberLeaf]

Man Petan can pass. You can see why he was such a profilic scorer in the WHL. Sucks his talent hasn't translated at the NHL level but he is playing great in the offensive zone on the 4th line right now

Appreciate his offensive ability. Defensively, watching him gives me palpitations.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Poor Matthews

 

[lottster14]

Hits 30-3 MTL?

 

[Throw More Waffles]

The game is back and forth, shared chances, for 3 line matchups. And then the Matthews line comes on and flat out dominates for 50 seconds.

We really need the Tavares line to start gelling. One line teams will eventually be exposed.

 

[DarkKnight]

When Thornton comes back, it will be interesting to see who gets booted.
I don't want to touch the 4th line.

I throw Kerfoot on the wing with JT and give Jumbo the three hole. It isn’t a shutdown line anyway.

 

[garce]

I can’t remember 34 having a clear breakaway like he almost did

 

[Leafs at Knight]

So many missed chances

 

[Throw More Waffles]

I can’t remember 34 having a clear breakaway like he almost did

Me neither for some reason.

Mikheyev looking like a lanky Hyman tonight. I like.
