Post-Game Talk: Leafs win! 5-1

[BertCorbeau]

Engvall always plays well after coming out of the press box. Let’s hope he can keep it up for a few games and energize that third line.

Happy to see the Leafs settle down defensively in their zone after the first too.

5 minutes of 6 on 5 and Montreal generated, what, one good scoring chance? That was nice.

Here to stay! Stick to what has always worked

Engvall went a long way in leaving Nash as the extra. Third line was night and day difference

 

[Martin Skoula]

It'll be interesting to see how much confidence Sandin gets from Keefe betting on him by keeping him on PP1 and having it pay off.

Habs can’t handle Leafs speed.
Soup-Kerfoot-Engvall was such as pest line and they are as fast as any top line if not faster.
The PP clicking.
Campbell was solid.
AM and Willie were great.
Foligno and Simmonds were hitting.
Spezza and Jumbo were vintage.
Gally was good too.
Reilly was flying.
Marner needed to shoot.
Overall, it was a good game and to be honest, Habs got all the bounces in game one, they lack speed to catch up with the Leafs.

I was happy with the rest of the team effort, but this point can't go unnoticed. The amount of time they played in the O zone was impressive, especially for what might be considered a shut down line.

If I can find a way to get in there I'll be sure to give you all a big wave! Still ok the hunt, but it's going to be near impossible witb the STH nabbing everything... Exclusive list me thinks.

Auston Matthews now has the GWG for each of our last 3 playoff wins. He was also responsible for breaking the 0-0 tie late in game 5 of 2019. A game we ended up winning.

Clutch

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

They don't have fans until game 6.

Oh, dang.
Def miss the fans and you know Montreal and Toronto fans would be nuts in this series

 

[Havoc]

Love Spezza. Just said Austin Mitch Willy is the team and have been great.

Nylander especially needs that morale boost. He never gets any public love.

 

[Jojalu]

Missed what they said and why did he do it?

They said what happened.

He put up 4 fingers for the 4 scratched Montreal players as he was scratched last game.

 

[Caroline Says ll]

I loved Nylanders patience on his goal. 95% of players would have reacted with a rushed shot in that moment and losing accuracy. He waits, chooses his spot and Snipes. Equisite patience.

 

[MSZ]

Price is avoiding all the questions. lol

was waiting for this!

 

[William Hylander]

You won't ever see a Habs fan in here after a leafs win, they are too busy trying to ignore that crosscheck/boarding on Engvall at the end of the game.

Chiarat (not a typo) doesn’t want this smoke

 

[Carltons Cup]

Scabs bitching about the reffing. Lol

Don't they realize that its harder for us to take penalties when we possess the puck all the time?? They barely controlled possession tonight.

They really are a dumb group of people....FFS.

 

[Daisy Jane]

what happened during the coaches challenge?

 

[The Examiner]

Kerfoot doesn’t get enough credit for how greasy he can be. Always has that smart ass smirk and was butt ending guys and causing a lot of chaos out there.

He also takes a lot of punishment.

 

[LeafGrief]

Brilliant

 

[socko]

Well Marc first you need to suck really bad, in the right year to suck bad, and you need a lot of luck with ping pong balls. Good luck with that....

Should be on that left side on every pp.

go ahead and steal it to post it all good.

 

[Cleetus]

Has Nylander ever gone by Bill? Or are you one of those smarmy salesman types who calls people by a nickname when introduced to them by their full name?

well this escalated quickly wow lol
