GDT: Montreal Canadiens @ Toronto Maple Leafs -- 7pm SN -- The season opener!

[Alamo Leafer]

tide's turning. but it shouldn't even be that close. Not in the this game of all games fcol!
Campbell's saved our bacon so far

 

[Aashir]

Sandin much better

 

[Leaf Rocket]

great shot for sandin

 

[fahad203]

Because he's 5 foot nothing?

5 feet players don't get hit? they have no problem hitting our 5 feet players

 

[Menzinger]

Best shift of the game so far.

 

[Lainehasaweirdface]

Sloppy start but it was all Leafs after the 5 or 6 minute mark.

 

[hamzarocks]

super line shift looked good there

 

[go_leafs_go02]

Thoughts on the new Sportsnet look and design?

I don't mind it thus far.

 

[Maplebeasts]

For his warts, Sandin is going to be their best offensive defenseman sooner or later

I agree. He's really good when he has the puck.

 

[Menzinger]

For his warts, Sandin is going to be their best offensive defenseman sooner or later

He's going to be a point producer for sure.

 

[SprDaVE]

2 or 3 posts so far for the Leafs?

 

[yubbers]

I don't know, why did he play 1st game in playoffs instead of season ready Dermott?

Maybe cause of game 6 OT?

 

[Nylander88]

The Sandin-Dermott pairing scared me for the better part of their shifts

 

[67leafs]

BORING

 

[keonsbitterness]

Deep-dive 1st period analysis: we sucked and we were great.

 

[Jojalu]

Fear………

Lol. What?

 

[Dave92]

Only saw the 2nd half but Leafs were clearly the better team for that.

 

[IPS]

Travis Dermott on his off side is a disaster waiting to happen.

 

[Racer88]

Anyone got any ideas why the Leafs are so often not ready to start the game.
I’m pretty sure Keefe doesn’t

 

[Crosscrease14]

Put some respec on Pierre Engvall .. who had him to open the season scoring

I liked it a lot. The score bug was nice and simple. Thank God they didn't go with the bar along the bottom like Bally sports did.

 

[hamzarocks]

Not a bad period, started looking good the last 10-11 minutes of the period, and by final 5 we were in control

Campbell was good early on and after that not tested

Need a JT goal. He needs one to get him back on track and put behind the sad injury from the playoffs

 

[fahad203]

It's been 1 period and Josh Anderson hasn't done anything stupid

I worry about Kase with Anderson around. I am surprised he hasn't taken a free run at Muzzin as he always does

 

[Racer88]

Lol. What?

Getting hurt again. It’s normal but will only last for a few games

The Leafs NEED... NEED to get a physical RD to play next to Sandin. This is where you kind of wish Bogosian had stayed. They also really need to try Liljegren in Holl's spot.
