Post-Game Talk: Leafs win 2-1 OT

[hamzarocks]

Nylander, Rielly, Hyman, Barabanov, Kerfoot were great for most of the game

Marner and Matthews and JT worked hard but didn't get much puck luck tonight

Overall well deserved win. Should have been 5-1 but will take the 2 points and let rittch go back to being a nobody

 

[GoodNewfieBoy]

Michael Starterson

Honestly good for him

 

[wingman75]

Not sure I remember watching us dominate a team in back to back like that and struggling to win.

Definitely deserved that win tonight.

I am not a Hutch believer, but he played fantastic in both games... well done sir. Way to bring it.

In my head, he put Matthews with Nylander because of his wrist... needed Matthews to be the playmaker not the goal scorer. Didn't really play out that way but hey I can say I am not wrong.

Fantastic effort, sticking with it.

Imagine this in the playoffs though... I think I would have passed out from the stress.

 

[Nylander88]

Maybe the 11million dollar guy is the anchor and not the 6.9 winger. Uh oh lol beauty goals there Willy. Greasy and then high skill. Good win boys

 

[Racer88]

This is why so many people are frustrated with Nylander. He is so skilled but still chooses to coat and float around the perimeter so often

 

[Not My Tempo]

We've actually been good the last two games at 5v5. Sort out the PP and we're back on track

 

[BoredBrandonPridham]

I'll take games that elite teams win for $1,000 Alex.

 

[Sypher04]

We were the better team both nights, wild to think we were like 90 seconds from not scoring a single goal.
Glad we managed to grab this one. Would be so deflating to drop both while outchancing the other team thoroughly.

 

[The Apologist]

Billie Nye to the rescue!!
Austin shut out for two straight. Damn, might be time to start shopping him right guys?


/S just in case

 

[Leafs87]

Big thrill Will> Big save Dave

 

[acrobaticgoalie]

Will Ny the perimeter guy!!!

 

[NinjaKick]

15-4-2... feels good

 

[LastOne2100]

That went from really bad to really amazing very quickly.

Glad the team broke out eventually - we deserved to win.

 

[57 Years No Cup]

Willie with a good game. Needs to happen more often.

 

[likecheese]

Good 2nd and 3rd period overall, deserved that game, Clutchinson held the fort.

 

[hockeynorth]

Yo Keefe see listen to me and you will have much success.

That goal by Willy in OT was filthy

Nah nah, it was all me bro

 

[Budz]

Hey...they battled.
Better team and full marks for the W.

Hoping 34 is okay.
We are missing Muzz.
Holl looking off.
Soup has been great - just snake bitten.
Engvall decent.
Barabanov - ok I see you!
Spezza solid.
JT Rielly Marner Vesey - just not good enough.

 

[Superstar]

Woot, great win and great to see the team win one for Hutch!

 

[HockeyVirus]

Great period.

But my god is Sportsnet a poor product. With Burke gone it's even worse. No personality at all, just dry delivery of clichés. They have no Duthie or anyone with charisma to make it not boring as f***.

 

[Smif]

Nice job boys, the finish wasn't there tonight but the effort was. 37 shots when you don't really have it. Good hard hat win fellas, good job. Nice finish Willy.

 

[Atomos2]

Teams need to realize not to piss off Matthews. Calgary were f***ed the moment they did.

 

[Lainehasaweirdface]

Why the heck did Marner look so disgusted when Nylander scored? LOL

Cuz that goal was absolutely disguting

 

[The Beyonder]

I think Matthews is probably not in next game, not good when you switch JT and Nylander so Matty doesn't have to take faceoffs. I hope I'm wrong because he's the engine of this team.

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

God damn Nylander came up clutch for us.

I am proud of this team.

 

[Jozay]

Nice game, deserved the 2 points. Glad we got them.
