I have to give it to Mrazek, for as much hate I've given him, he's blocked out the white noise and has had a great last two games. He's really stepped up his game,

Matthews with the troll job on Florida, scores with 0.04 seconds left. Haha.

JT showed up on the powerplay, Marner with some gorgeous dishes.

Great game.

That’s the one thing I give mrazek for. For the roller coaster he’s gone through, he’s not mentally weak and isn’t afraid to go back at it. You don’t play 10+ years in the NHL by chance.
 
I want to keep Lyubushkin. Need to re-sign him.

Definitely. The Bear brings it every night and makes life miserable for the opposition. This is quite like what the Panthers do to opposing teams.

Leafs have definitely found this approach more often over the last three weeks. This is the probably the best Leafs backend with clear depth 1 through 8 I have seen in my lifetime.
 
Yeah, and I think Mikheyev got tripped in the Florida zone but why make a call and get in the way of a Florida comeback attempt?

Think Bennett slashed Brodie's stick and broke it.

Just noticed that Florida has more PP's for the Leafs too :laugh:

Of course.

Frustrating but this consistent issue is what will be encountered in the playoffs, so I guess it's good practice to get used to?
 
Only saw 1 mediocre replay, but I'd be interested to hear how the league justifies a high, late hit to a vulnerable hit when they suspended Kadri for similar in the playoffs.
 
Big boys showed up and we had good goaltending. We're going to win most nights when that happens.

Tavares great.
Marner great.
Lilly great.
Petr very good.

4th line not so good.

Let's go f***ing crush Boston

Agreed on most part here. 4th line should be better no doubt; but the coach needs to have game awareness and do better on the fly coaching too.

Too often Spezza line was caught against their top2/3 lines. That should not happen especially when you have the last change
 
Great game by Marner, Mrazek, and Tavares. Nylander again looks like a passenger and the 4th line was awful. Nice bounce back after yesterday.

That 4th line has just fallen off a cliff. Night and day from.last year. Blackwell brings a spark. but I'd bring up Knies for a couple of games and give him a long leash,.maybe he can wake some.players up.
