Post-Game Talk: Leafs win 5-4 in OT

[Commander Clueless]

Wow, what a comeback.

Bad start but a heck of a finish.

That's the good news. The bad news is - did we just lose Tanev and Nylander in one game?

Absolutely crucial win. TB won tonight and Florida is also on the verge of winning their game.

 

[ClarkSittler]

Awesome comeback especially since it was against the scumbag Bruins!

Nice to see Robertson doing well and GOATberg making me eat my words.

Marner doing Marner things and Rielly with a 4 point night is nice.

In Stolarz we trust!

Hopefully Willy and Tanev are okay.

 

[Thornbury]

My only question is why didn't they dress Matthews tonight. Oh, he was dressed? I was at the game and sure didn't notice him ccntribute a damn thing. Was sweet seeing the Leafs take the Bruins in their own barn.

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

Holmberg is unreal. All of a sudden he has caught fire out of nowhere. I was just gonna ask "did any recent SC winner have a winger as bad as Holmberg in their top 6?" Then he scores the tying goal. Unreal.

I have been a strong supporter of Holmberg for awhile now. I was really impressed with his work last season, especially in the playoffs. He hasn't had a strong start to this season, but it doesn't surprise me that he is playing well lately. Seems like he and Robertson are earning Berube's trust. It was nice to see us fight back tonight against a hated rival. I can't express how much I detest Boston.

Robertson deserves some real credit for helping bigtime with this comeback.

Game tying snipe at 3-3, then making the play on Holmbergs goal.

He's starting to play some really good hockey.

Yeah that play to spin off the boards with the puck on Holmbergs goal was elite

Assist on the game winner and two posts.

Hard to call that nothing

Like most of the team he was bad through the first 40 minutes. He was good in the last 10-15 mins and OT. 2 posts and literally sprung Mitch for the OT winner, so he found a way to make an impact eventually. He definitely looks off though. We see glimpses of it through games, especially late, but whatever is ailing him is not allowing him to sustain it.

We need him to find a way to a more consistent form by the playoffs.

Damn. LTIR until playoffs

Seeing him live, he just seemed totally lacking in jump and energy.

I think the is doing in game load management ……..just coasting along

 

[Leafs98]

Any idea when Nylander got hurt

 

[Optimist]

 

[Enga Olly]

Odd game - so many individuals were bad, Willie and Tanev is worrying, yet a rather remarkable comeback with Mitch looking All-World and some depth scoring again. So you take the good, you take the bad.

I sure enjoyed reading 30 pages of Bruin fan misery.

[Tarmore]

But it was 3-0 for Boston!

 

[shaner8989]

Tanev done for a long time

 

[Leafsfan74]

Some keys in this game for me are that the Leafs didnt back down they way they used to during after-the-whistle scrums. This is inportant. They also have guys throwing hits, Loretz had 7 tonight. I love it. Leafs still needed Stolarz to made difficult saves, they need better details because once playofrs start the usual bs interfernce isn't called.

Could be worse, thankfully it is an arm.

We don't need a 34 year old signed for 6 years to start hurting their legs or back.

 

[Gary Nylund]

No worries, he's just a rental. It's not like we made a long term commitment to someone that old.

Sling doesn't 100% mean arm could be shoulder depending on the type of sling.

Not that that would be better....

 

[CabanaBoy5]

Great game by Stolarz and Robertson. Marner showing his value. If Rielly contributes this type of offense we can overlook his poor defence. I thought OEL had a great game.

On the negative, McCabe with his poorest game in a while. Matthews and Tavares still not good. Timmins a disaster in his own end. I didn’t like Knies or McMann’s game.

This is what happens when you have a great goalie. He can hide some warts.

 

[Its not your fault]

Absolutely love that Marner went right to Stolarz, this game is over without Stolarz

Matthews was like huh.
