[glue]

While there might have been exciting moments, leafs somehow made that look easy…..big win for leafs

Havent lost any games on Prime yet

The production alone of the Amazon games have me wanting them to switch. It’s definitely coming. Would not be surprised to see Amazon/Netflix/Disney completely take over sports streaming

Kucherov is such a little bitch.

A bit of a tough one defensively and Woll was average but they played well. The break outs were good, the passing was on point and they scored on a lot of chances.

 

[LeafEgo]

Tampa ain't the same Tampa but they can still be as dangerous as anyone imo. They were good tonight and Leafs better, that was a great win.

 

[Jojalu]

Leafs now 5-1-1 against TB, Fla and Bos.

That is a nice change

 

[Leaffan1991]

great game overall. We need a playmaker 2C and push JT to 3C. JT is a bit too slow to make that line good enough defensively and he's not a playmaker.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Only saw the third but that top line looked fun

Matthews with a perfectly timed attempt at a Michigan, nice save from the goalie though

 

[BertCorbeau]

Nice to get a solid win in regulation after a couple of comeback wins to break that slump

This beast has 18 goals now, wow. That seemed to come out of nowhere. What's he pacing, 30+ ? Ohh eff, that's not good.

 

[PromisedLand]

Leafs offense the last 3 games

 

[Mr_Fun]

Big win, big 3 game win streak, and quasi-most importantly -- they've actually been playing well the last 3 games.

 

[MSZ]

Knies has 7 goals in his last 9 games.

 

[Mitch nylander]

I really liked the top 6 tonight.

 

[LeafsNet]

Tie Domi actually signed a stick in the middle of the game. That’s just crazy LOL.

Why can’t Sportsnet do things like this?

 

[Blanka]

I'm not gay or anything but Knies really is a specimen.

It ain't a PGT until I see this lol I love it

 

[leafsfan5]

A healthy Matthews really changes the outlook of the offence and this team as a whole

They have a golden chance this season with the division being as weak as it is

 

[Gabriel426]

Really close game and could have gone the other way if it wasn't for Woll and some luck.

after losing 3, the leafs come back and win 3 straight!

Not just winning, but looking like a functional team (for the most part). It wasn't even the losses that were the problem, it was the dog shit effort that led to those losses.

The big boys were stellar tonight. Marner, Matthews, Nylander, Knies, all top notch!

Berube has been speaking of the D being more active on the offensive side, Rielly looked excellent tonight (thanks McCabe), but hitting the gaps, joining the rushes at the right time. He has to have that as a part of his game to be effective.

Everyone else was good enough. I didn't like the 4th lines game, but they really never had a chance to play a part really.

Woll was excellent. I do think he could have stopped that Raddish shot, but matters not in the end.

Good win.

Dunno if the audio was messed up, but it sounded like there was NO crowd for large portions of that game (Forslund did mention technical issues, so maybe that played a part).
