GDT: Leafs @ Wild - Sunday 8am Sweden (soon to be known as WillieLand)

[Gary Nylund]

With the talent we have we should be blowing this team away. Our forwards need to do a better job of backchecking and helping out our D.

With the talent we have we should have a better record than 1-7 in playoff series but it is what it is.

 

[Hoglund4MvP]

JT and Nylander probably on bench gave each other the head nod it's time to win the game

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

f***ing hit the net Mitch

 

[Evilhomer]

Do you ever tire of making these ridiculous posts?

No, because the Leafs will win the game, so I will be correct. The fact that the Wild got a couple of lucky breaks doesn't mean much of anything. Maybe the leafs will in overtime, maybe it will be a shootout. Whatever the case, they will get the two points. Now, it doesn't change my overall concern that they struggle far too much against these mediocre teams because they know their skill will likely carry them. It's not a good habit.

 

[hamzarocks]

Get it to 3 on 3 and then whatever happens

3 out of 4 in sweden is pretty good

 

[CincoHolio]

Just play for the point and call it a day. yeesh

 

[Torontonian]

Just play for the point and call it a day. yeesh

Agreed, I’ve found this entire season so far; the playmaking and smoothness hasn’t been there, much like today, sloppy plays all around

Bar is too low.

Mediocre at best team on a second half of a back to back.

Need 2 points here.

 

[Cleetus]

at least get a point, like they dont play till Friday, put it all on the line

It's always been leadership and commitment. Dubas thought if he paid them they be all world
We are coming up on American Thanksgiving .
Usually that's a benchmark of your team
It's no longer early in the year

 

[Hoglund4MvP]

Actually let's win this one off a domi-robertson 2 on 1

That's what you said about Boston and Buffalo, do you remember how that worked out? No offence but these posts of yours are just terrible, irrational homerism isn't a good look. Try to do better.

Boring game, but this should be an easy close-out third period. The Wild are no threat at all.

I suppose we have different definitions of being correct.

 

[RunItBackAgain]

I have to go to bed.. can we just win now please?

 

[djdev]

heres the thing, this team cannot seem to put together a full game EFFORT, thats the problem. they will win games due to the talent, but the other parts of their game go awol far too often.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Matthews and Marner should be having a field day against teams like Minny. A point each at even strength is pretty poor.

That's it right there, been my mantra for a while now. A talented bunch of dogs, but nobody there to lead the way and set the tone.

 

[Nineteen67]

The Leafs used to win big draws, is it me or they suckling in the dot too much this season.

 

[hamzarocks]

Ideally yes, but some times its just not there

Hopefully we show up next friday after a long rest vs a bad black hawks team

We gave up 2 pts already to them, cant lose again to them

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

We’ve been stuck on 23 shots since at least Minnesota tied it up.

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

Sokay fellas. We don't need money to pay for any kind of a stable defense core. A starting goalie or a third line that's competent. We will pay Willie his money.

Not sure if $4M gets you a starting goalie, a competent third line and an upgraded D Core. $4M is the highest Nylander would get on a raise.

Unless your saying we should trade him to do all that?

William in a shootout, how else could this end?

 

[kingzley]

That is not how hockey works...

How does it work then? Enlighten me.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Knies is so good

 

[Cleetus]

Leafs need some of that sweedish sugar
