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

[MarMarSab3]

Good lord Simmonds is trash

 

[Dion TheFluff]

So the crackdown on cross checking last...check notes....0 games. About right.

Chiarot wouldn't be an NHL player if they actually decided to crack down on cross checks

 

[keonsbitterness]

Campbell looks like Cujo to me in net. Very active but gets things done. Opposite of Freddy.

Just don't get fat like Freddy did.

 

[fahad203]

Almost 1.5 minutes stuck in our zone because Amadio can't skate ... we gave up Brooks for this guy? Seriously?

Technically that started with Simmonds giveaway on the offensive zone

 

[diehardleafsfan9878]

These are professionals. Best skaters in the world, they are falling down more than Timbits

 

[BackPassChampions]

Why are the coaches wearing face masks when the fans don't have to?

Everyone should know at this point it is all PR. When they go in the back, the masks come off lol.

I was at a pre season game not long ago, lots of folks not wearing their masks. Staff was not enforcing it either.

 

[Azazel]

Gord Dwyer and Garrett Rank are the refs tonight.

Not familiar with Rank, but Dwyer is starting to get a name as a garbage ref.

 

[hamzarocks]

When did the habs get 19 shots?

 

[Alamo Leafer]

why is the crowd so crap at the arena. no passion no noise. might as well play on the road

exactly what I was thinking. Unreal ffs

 

[2 Slick]

Leave it to Toronto to make the end of the period as tough on themselves as possible.

 

[fahad203]

There are a lot of vanilla players on this team

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

That was a bit of a dumb sequence to end a pretty good period.

 

[hockeynorth]

Healthy I definitely want to see

Ritchie-Matthews-Marner
Bunting-Tavares-Nylander
Mikheyev-Kampf-Kase
Engvall-Kerfoot-Spezza

 

[saffronleaf]

exactly what I was thinking. Unreal ffs

imagine that missed call on the trip if it were in montreal or boston. could barely get a murmur out of the crowd at the sba.

 

[2 Slick]

Good lord Simmonds is trash

He hasn't been good in about half a decade. Not sure why they re-signed him, he's garbage.

 

[diehardleafsfan9878]

If anyone remembers, all this Montreal pressure at the end started with Holl spinning in the corner with noone around him and throwing the puck behind the net when Muzzin was moving up ice with him.

 

[hamzarocks]

Is Kampf playing tonight? Haven't heard his name mentioned once.

 

[Leafs at Knight]

Keefe playing the 4th line with a couple minutes left when you know they're going to throw out their top line.. Bold move.

 

[Nineteen67]

Hard to believe some of those Leafs made the NHL. Low IQ.

 

[keonsbitterness]

There are a lot of vanilla players on this team

I'm more of a chocolate guy.

 

[Alamo Leafer]

Don't like this. This is such a haby kinda game. Stick around waiting for a breakaway to finish us off

 

[shaner8989]

Kase and Engvall best players so far........ least amount of ice time

Keefes an idiot and can't adapt in game

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Tavares and Marner; particularly Tavares don’t deserve anything near 11 mil a year. Tavares is hardly a difference maker anymore

 

[hockeynorth]

Is Kampf playing tonight? Haven't heard his name mentioned once.

I literally don't stop hearing ENGVALL KAMPF KASE
