Post-Game Talk: Leafs win 4-3 in OT

[SprDaVE]

Leave Nylander with scraps?

Need a 3c badly.

Nylander LW

Yeah probably best to leave Domi with the scraps to figure it out.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Did the game not matter tonight? I’m happy, could have been a downer. Lol

I mean I had a great time watching it. But obviously I am talking about the playoffs when I say games that matter. Domi clearly can't be our 2C. Or really a centre at all.

So McMann - Tavares - Marner pretty good line as well.

Curious to see what the lineup looks like when MAtthews comes back

I have zero interest in seeing Marner and Matthews together once 34 is back.

They can easily drive their own line...question is, can Nylander?

 

[ULF_55]

Said marner in overtime with winner against McDavid would be nice.

 

[francis246]

Marner was good tonight, but let’s not pretend that 3 on 3 is anything other than a stupid gimmick

Enjoy the win and stop trying to diminish the goal. If Matthews or Nylander scored that goal you wouldn’t be saying the same. It was a great effort on that play start to finish.

That's what Drasaitl gets for not being greedy and passing instead.

McMann is a glue guy no matter where he plays. His speed and tenacity is a good compliment to any line. Not sure if tonight showed great chemistry because of a rush from McMann and a nice play in OT from Marner though.

Mitch Marner saves the day while William Nylander didn't seem to want to play.

They're both a little better on their own than when they are together.

 

[Tie Domi Esquire]

I am sorry but we could win 10 in a row without him and our current centre depth would get absolutely exposed when the games matter. It is great we are winning...but let's not act like we don't need him lol

We've seen what he does when the games matter.

 

[Al14]

If a Leaf did what McDavid did, we'd have certainly got a penalty for taking out both of Drais and Skinner's sticks.

Suck it Oilers, no 2nd point for you. You didn't deserve the point you got !!!

 

[mcleex]

Is Hyman ever going to have a successful season like he did last year
He looked invisible all night

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

Tavares and Marner work so well together. I always preferred Matthews and Nylander together.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

We've seen what he does when the games matter.

Would you feel better going into the playoffs right now with Domi as our 2C and Matthews not in the lineup? Seriously lol.

 

[Roo]

Nice to see the OT winner from Marner, he played really well this game along with McMann and Tavares.

McCabe-Tanev look like a really good shutdown pairing.

Stolarz solid again.

Didn’t think EDM’s tying goal should have counted. The moved Tavares’ fallen stick which should be a penalty. I know this because we were called for the exact same thing a couple games ago. Strange.

But solid win for the boys, that’s all that matters.

It was a magic moment in time that will never be repeated.

Too busy writing children's books. f*** him.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Wasn't there an hfboardster who was rallying fans to boo Marner this season?

 

[hockeyes]

Must be a contract year

 

[LaPlante94]

Edmonton didn't deserve that 1 point. Can't believe that wasn't called on McDavid for sweeping Tavares stick away on the ice there. Normally I wouldn't care but McMann got called for that like 2 games ago and when he did it the puck wasn't even near the play and in the corner, unlike this one that literally took Tavares out of the play so they could score that goal. It's either a penalty or it isn't and refs can't be calling it whenever they feel like it or whenever they want to do some game management.

 

[blue stick]

Almost impossible to post on my phone with all these ads.

Good game overall.

 

[LeafParade]

X --- Matthews --- Domi
McMann --- Tavares ---- Marner
Knies ---- Y ------ Nylander

Never play the 4th line!

Just have to fill in X and Y through trades or open trials among the spare parts and Toronto Marlies.

 

[LeafChief]

Hyman's season last year was a massive f***ing fluke.

Brave Browser.

I wanted to see William Nylander out there.. instead I got Will Ny some hockey guy.

 

[likecheese]

Mitch Marner saves the day while William Nylander didn't seem to want to play.

Willie looked like he just got back from a road trip to Nepal. While Marner was busting his ass all over the ice.
