Post-Game Talk: Leafs win 3-2 against Utah

[3headeddragon]

The leafs have already played two games against those heavy teams: Vegas and Boston. And the Leafs shut both of them out convincingly, with tough, physical play and tight, defensive hockey.

Don't forget Winnipeg

Why does it feel like there is 84 years in between games lately? Nothing till Wednesday, then again nothing till Saturday after that.

Don't worry, you'll get your fix in December. They have four back-to-backs and 15 games overall so they are basically playing like every other day.

The scheduling is whack.

Being 7-1 and 3 points up on Florida for first in the division with Matthews out is crazy

That’s stupid

Yes, they have done better. Only Benoit went after a guy who threw a dirty hit, bordeline at best especially at full speed, and no punches were thrown.

More importantly, it comes down to "when the games matter". If it were the last few games of the season and teams were playing for position or playoff spots, the games change. Ditto for the actual playoffs.

I will believe it when I see it is an apt comment.

Steeves has looked good on the 4th line. I am a bit surprised he adapted so well to that role.
