It's a breath of fresh air watching this team play defence for once. Great win tonight after a shaky first.

Bobby throwing that buyout money around, lol

Once you give up an addiction, you have infinite more money.

Just a standard Sportsnet game. It Is Known.

Switch Smekkal and Kubalik. He needs to get more 5v5 icetime. That is all.

Leafs won the Corsi battle in the 1st and the 3rd.

Who would you rather play ringette with, Bertuzzi or Domi?

You know that's not a fair question... It's physically impossible for either of those 2 clowns to play ringette. They can't keep their stick down in the ring because it is constantly imbedded in the opponent's teeth or groin.

And I got the yayo too

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

I like how I think for the most part the 4th line is stapled to the bench after a goal or goal against. Before it was the line that automatically hops over the board in either situation

Tony baby. I gonna tell you 1 tine

Hamonic just spins and fires it out to no one.

This isn't a problem that's going to be solved midseason. Multiple core pieces should be moved out this offseason though.

Yes agreed the Leafs should move out their core players. They will never win in the playoffs with their core.
Now as far as the Sens go just add a better 4th line player or two maybe internally. Have Pinto be back. Chabot back. Get rid of a couple of our soft dmen and add two big hard to play against dmen. Add one top six forward with some jam. And if Korpi can have more nights like this we should be alright.
The Sens core will be fine under new coaching. Our Sens core have a tonne of skill and talent.
Sure it has taken longer but that was because of our amateur GM and a meddling cheap owner. The Sens were a one step up, two steps back organization.

Sportsnet doing everything they can to down play the sens win lol. Friedman calling it the "skirmish of Ontario". The panel saying "did Toronto give them the win or did Ottawa deserve it". Horrible biased panel

Pretty Sad, especially considering ottawa outplayed them badly last game and beat them 6-3 in the first one. like its the third time now. Toronto is not a very good team.

... and apologies for being so late on my posts tonight... Idle all freaking day during these holidays and yet my darling wife announces 20 minutes before game time that I had to do grocery shopping for visitors / company coming tomorrow. The nerve of that lovely perfect woman!

Just got home. Saw that Parker Kelly scored a goal.

Imagine allowing him to score a goal on your team. Imagine being the Leafs.

 

[Agent Zuuuub]

ugly game to watch.

thank god for korpi.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Pretty much says it re the coaching change.

Pretty much says it re the coaching change.

So when he comes to the bench the coach coaches him.

 

[WallyD]

Lagesson should get an extra two for instigation.

Compare the drive-by love tap by Grieg to the many multiple hard skewer attempts of Bertuzzi on Korpi later in the game. They're not at all comparable but apparently Grieg is a goon and nada said about Bertuzzi. In fact, the arsehole Toronto game caller actually said, and I can't make this up, "a quick whistle there" on the Ottawa goalie one. Truly astounding how piss-poor TSN and SN broadcasts are when you consider it is two Canadian teams playing on a NATIONAL sportscast. These are not Leaf regional game calls.
