GDT: Maple Leafs vs Islanders 7:30pm

[Torontonian]

I personally think it's good Toronto is playing these teams on the bubble like Ottawa and the Islanders etc. They are facing teams that are showing desperation and are trying to keep their playoffs hopes alive, helps keep Toronto somewhat interested.

 

[fahad203]

Leafs had better chances, so what led to the better chances? Their system?

No doubt. Against the team like Isles you can't play for 5 minutes and have good chances
Isles play a 60 minute north south game. Hustle in, hustle out

For the last 10 mintues, we looked like we don't know how to play or as if we played last night

 

[LaPlante94]

I dont loce the glass option, but Kampf definitely overhandled it

It's not ideal but I'll take that over a giveaway anyday.

 

[ToneDog]

This is just Keefe and Dubas way of wanting Bruins to play Islanders as that’s the toughest matchups.

Actually it is the opposite.

 

[Future]

Keefe is the only coach that changes his entire lineup every game. And it shows. It’s seriously ridiculous.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Hudson Fasching... sounds like a characrter out of a John Irving novel

We gave up a goal to a guy who doesn't exist.

to me it looked like they just couldn't string together two passes. It didn't seem like it was a coaching issue or an effort issue.

Sorokin made all those saves look so easy

Be nice if we could beat them in regulation then. I think Tampa are struggling a bit as well.

Boston must be licking their chops.

 

[PromisedLand]

The forward lines are getting caved in in terms of shots differential

would be interesting to see if Keefe has the f***ing brains to "adjust"

 

[therealkoho]

thats what will decide a playoff series

It's true the smallest things can have the biggest impacts. He usually makes good decisions and plays confident in his own abilities, doesn't make sense to all of a sudden to start having all these mental errors the last 5 weeks are so!

 

[DraftSchmaft]

Having a hard time staying awake.

Confuses me daily how this is the end product after having big 3 since 2016 and core 4 since 2018. I'm jealous of the Bruins who should be dead by now based on the age difference in cores when we used to be the underdog (and now remain the underdog)

I can't be the only one who thinks the team that played the Caps in round 1 has a good chance to beat the current team in a 7 game series.

[fahad203]

Matt Martin probably one of the best enforcer/4th liner in the league if not the best

 

[Maplebeasts]

As bad as the Sportsnet intermission panel is, the TSN panel is almost as terrible.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Here comes Tampa

 

[Torontonian]

Be nice if we could beat them in regulation then. I think Tampa are struggling a bit as well.

Boston must be licking their chops.

I think both teams are trying to maintain healthy habits without getting hurt, looking at the big picture.

Tanner Jeannot is

 

[PromisedLand]

these lines dont f***ing work.

Three useless ass f***ing lines.

without ROR these lines don't make sense especially when you don't have last change. Thats dumbass coaching IMO

 

[HockeyVirus]

Good news at least....

 

[DraftSchmaft]

When we have OReilly we stack top 6, and when we don't have him we spread the offense.

Leafs lol

 

[Puckstuff]

Keefe is the only coach that changes his entire lineup every game. And it shows. It’s seriously ridiculous.

Holl, Gustavsoon, Rielly all in this same game is a recipe for a defensive disaster. This game illustrates how important Brodie is. Prefer Schenn's stay at home style to Holl's.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Let’s all sit back
Puff one
Have a sip
Breathe
Relax
Enjoy

 

[Azazel]

This is the worst good news ive ever heard

Any team in the league has a good chance to beat these guys in a playoff series.
