Post-Game Talk: Leafs win a barn burner

[HolyCrap]

If I had to define "annoying victory", this would be it.

Perfect description of how I feel. Lol.

 

[Keon1963]

Canadians shit the bed much worse. No heart.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Top line was incredible! Galchenyuk keeping up with the big boys!

Sens always treat our games like it's game 7 of the cup final but they act like an AHL team vs the oilers lol

 

[Havoc]

Glad gally had a good game on the first line.

Excited to see JT and Nylander with Hyman full time

 

[LadyLala]

Don’t think my heart was quite ready for this game, and neither were my cats.

 

[diehardleafsfan9878]

Is it just me or was that the most boring 11 goal game ever?

 

[MSZ]

Even an off game and Campbell makes the saves when he needs to. Just win

He is still the better goalie tonight.

 

[Stanley Sumdae]

Wasn't pretty .. but it was a fun game to watch. 6 in a row!! 11 for Campbell although he'll probably shit on himself in the post game...lol

 

[Taluss]

Was a fun one. GG Leaf fans. You all should be excited for playoffs. I have a feeling it can be a promising year for you all.

 

[MapleLeafs77]

Weird bench management that game. 17 mins for our top line when matty was on fire? JT line played more? Our 3rd line played 3 mins less than top line?

Dunno why he didnt ride them 20 mins like normal. Game would have been over much earlier

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Dermott, Bogosian, Brodie looked good. Rest of the D was horrible.

Tavares needs to wake up. Bottom 6 was pretty useless too

 

[Cap'n Flavour]

That was more of a dumpster fire next to the barn burning the entire farm down kind of game, but hey.

 

[TorMapleJays]

Hey Lurking Sens Fans

 

[Fonzieleaf]

I wanna see Jack’s post game interview!

 

[Contenderorpretender]

Little shocked to see the ice time of Matthews and marner at 18 minutes. They were rolling and it wasn't a blowout.

 

[danron1376]

sens fans telling us to get a new goalie when jack just got his 11th straight win lol!!

 

[Gallagbi]

First line carried the team, rest of the team took the night off.

Not sure that's fair. Most of the issues were saves/D breakdowns, not really the lines upfront who all were decent (Thornton aside)

Some bad plays by Muzzin, Holl and Riellyx2 all ended up in our net. Probably should have got a save or two

 

[RealisticLeaf55]

Rhaegar is about to make another Matthews poll to make himself feel better. Book it.

 

[Aashir]

1st line- Had a game straight out of February
2nd line - Chances, but couldn’t finish again
3rd line??(Engvall One) - Alright, had some ozone pressure, but goddamn engvall can’t win face offs
Other 3rd line - f*** Thornton for taking the most Pejorative Slured penalty, they play too much imo

1st pair - nice ozone possession, dominated 5v5, shorty was....
2nd pair - Holl wasn’t very good, muzzin was alright, move on
3rd pair - Good game, dermott tried things in the ozone which is different, bogo is bogo

that is campbells statistically worst game as a leaf, and I’m fine with it

 

[MapleLeafs77]

Little shocked to see the ice time of Matthews and marner at 18 minutes. They were rolling and it wasn't a blowout.

No idea what that was about. Made the game closer than it should have been

 

[123offtheglass]

that was an ugly win! we'll take though.

Gotta win the ugly ones sometimes; at least they battled and got it done. Once again they did a great job defending in the final minutes. I blame that last goal on Grandpa Joe; that guy needs to take a nap.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

The Tavares line was excellent?

That is what I was seeing...

Justin Holl was the only guy on our team with below a 50% CF% at 5-on-5 today. He had a 44.83% and he was atrocious. Muzzin was a bit better but also not great. Rest of the defense was great for the most part, and I think Dermott deserves major praise today. He made some really nice plays to bail out Bogosian and that 3rd pairing made up for the 2nd pairing today.

Thornton looks washed but the rest of the forwards looked fine, including the 4th line. It was quiet but effective.

Wasn't Campbell's best game today but he was the better goalie today. Barely.

 

[Fogelhund]

Mess of a game, but two points.

 

[Amadeus]

Burn the boats guys. Hanta Yo dudes!!!

Thats odd. It looked like they were on the ice a lot more
