GDT: NYR @ TOR

[Leaf Rocket]

Ray Ferraro can't catch.

it was the reason why he didn't become a goalie.

 

[Chief Berube]

good...now get ready for your heart to be broken because this is the regular season. and remember this moment until playoffs. Why do you say?

Leaf fan problems.

LOOOL oh no

 

[zeke]

Structure. Defense. Beauty.

 

[rdogg]

Hell yeah the Leafs are looking great so far

 

[TheBeastCoast]

A Leafs team absolutely suffocating the opposition defensively is f***ing wild to watch happen.

 

[Raym11]

engvall moves in slow motion. crash that puck into the net man

if he had any ounce of hockey IQ to go with his elite skating he'd have another 5 goals

 

[Teeder Keon]

Do I dare say that we actually look great defensively?

Say it loud and proud

 

[Man Bear Pig]

I thought the game vs Nashville was a perfect game. They've done the same thing through 40 minutes tonight. Solid defensively, it doesn't have to be pretty.

 

[ottomaddox]

The Rangers need to...

...go home.

 

[saffronleaf]

lafreniere and kakko haven't looked that great but they're still young and have talent

 

[hamzarocks]

Structure. Defense. Beauty.

No doubt, leafs defense looks legit. Offense is still more dangerous than the Rangers despite it not being there yet.

Team is looking exceptionally promising at the moment. Incredible past 11 games, and start to the year

 

[Cecithepylon]

We feel like Boston from a few years ago. Good special teams. Good goalie good defence. Stars play well

 

[Leaf Rocket]

The boys have been....*pinches self*.... playing consistently....now let's see what the third brings us.

 

[Zybalto]

Ritchie cant keep up with M&M and has looked best with Spezza and Simmonds TBH. Theyve actually looked like a killer line when together.

Please Keefe, try Bunting on the top line.....I'm guessing it may happen when Mikheyev gets back anyways.

 

[ottomaddox]

That wrist shot has no IQ.

 

[Raym11]

lafreniere and kakko haven't looked that great but they're still young and have talent

I will try to give them the Sean Couturier benefit of doubt

 

[Teeder Keon]

Better

You could make an instructional video watching Brodie head into the corner under pressure and how he positions his body.
Watching Kamph's positioning in the D zone, his support is always there. I'd forgotten what that looks like.
Rielly with another good period, very impressed with him tonight, and Dermott, quietly effective.
While I've read some comments stating otherwise, to my eyes, Ritchie is playing effectively.
Simmonds is on a tear.
I still get a kick out of watching Campbell tap the pads of his Dmen after he smothers the puck.
Kerfoot is continuing strong play.
Both Matthews and Tavares have such wonderful in tight stick handling abilities.
Winning face-offs, who knew?

 

[ottomaddox]

The Habs are coming apart...

 

[saffronleaf]

jt sounding captain-esque in that interview

 

[Havoc]

jt sounding captain-esque in that interview

They didn't give his bangs a quick comb first

 

[Leaf Rocket]

LOOOL oh no

couldn't help myself

TBH similarly, I'm enjoying the team, just not losing my mind because playoffs is when i think things will be really serious

 

[saffronleaf]

The Habs are coming apart...

beautiful to see

 

[TMLeafer]

Making Shesterkin look like a Vezina trophy candidate.

Only Toronto.

Huh? This sounds nitpicky. He has 15 saves through 2 periods and no big saves I can recall either.

didn't this guy actually shut us out previously because he doesn't look as great tonight to me either.
