Post-Game Talk: Leafs win 5-3 against the Lightning

[BrannigansLaw]

Just checked the score yessir gimme that dub. How did we play?

 

[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?

They just aired this as they signed off.
LOL that’s Jody Shelley the colour analyst for Prime Monday Night

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Brah Knies at 18 goals already.

Kid has 40 goal potential easily. Sign him ASAP

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.

Brayden Point is fantastic. Carrying that puck... man, so good. And driving lanes without the puck. Cannot wait to cheer for him on Team Canada! I think he might be the guy who people are surprised by the most. Not sure casual fans know how good this dude is.

Anyway, enough of that... f*** Point (until Feb 12).

 

[Mr_Fun]

Probably in the lower portion of Wolls best games, but -- winning .pct trumps .svp.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Find someone who loves you the way Prime loves the Leafs.

 

[BraveCanadian]

Best start and overall game they have had in a bit.

 

[Enniskillen]

Perfect streaming quality, great colour guys, perfect DiCaprio meme, nice hockey night overall. Rogers deal and ron mclean can be catapulted into Saturn.

 

[sxvnert]

The solution to the PP is now obvious. One of the core must sit out PP1. They can rotate who sits but it has to be one of them.

 

[torontoblood]

the leafs tonight registered their 30th win of the season today (January 20, 2025)

By comparison, Last year the Leafs only reached the 30th win mark on February 19, 2024- almost one full month later.

Exactly one year ago at this date, we were trailing 13 points behind the first place team bruins, 6 points behind the second place team panthers, and 1 point behind the third place team lightning. And 14 points behind the league-leading (at the time) Canucks.

Toronto’s record today :30-16-2, 62 points, only 5 points back of the league-leading Washington Capitals. We’re leading the Atlantic division with a 5 point cushion on the second best team, the Stanley cup defending champion Florida Panthers.

Or just shoot the puck at the net

Good game boys. Tampa doesn't scare us anymore but their top end can dominate at times, scary good. They are no pushovers. Thankfully neither are we . PS: Woll is a grinder! Tucks in no matter what happens, all we can ask.

 

[Skullz]

Feels good. Not the best, but I'll take it.

Just checked the score yessir gimme that dub. How did we play?

A honest playoff-like effort. A nice scenery change from what we have watched for the past few weeks.

Perfect streaming quality, great colour guys, perfect DiCaprio meme, nice hockey night overall. Rogers deal and ron mclean can be catapulted into Saturn.

I really like their broadcast crew

Knies glued to the front of the net on the PP and Marner keeping it simple with a wrister is a winning formula for this PP. They are finally taking the right approach, quick release from the middle and picking up the garbage. Woll made sure TB didn't tie it. Even on the road TB just doesn't go away. You have to play a full 60 minutes agaiinst that team.

 

[kevsh]

Knies is going to get paid this summer.
Not Mitch Marner money, but he's going to get paid.

 

[horner]

How was Minten

 

[likecheese]

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

 

[ToneDog]

Knies is going to get paid this summer.
Not Mitch Marner money, but he's going to get paid.

Will be interesting to see who his comparables are. If he puts up 30 goals and 25-30 assists, Tre might have to do some work to find the cap space.

 

[Rude Dog]

big three looked great. Woll did enough but really need Stolarz back to share the load. Nice win

 

[Mr_Fun]

I thought the final score actually flattered Tampa a little. When we get the big 3 going like that, we are a tough out. Tampa is still an excellent team; we didn't just beat some ham and eggers.

 

[wingman75]

Just checked the score yessir gimme that dub. How did we play?

Tidy.

McCabe played his off side with Rielly. World of difference.

One of the best first periods the team has played all season.

Woll was good. Top dogs were in charge. Everyone else was good.

Nice win against a quality opponent.

 

[Dekes For Days]

Stream was good tonight, and was such a nice change to have positivity from the crew.
