GDT: Philadelphia Flyers @ Toronto Maple Leafs 7:00pm on CBC

[Menzinger]

I'm watching when Nylander whiffed on the puck again, and ten seconds later the other team scored.

You really didn't see that?

Or are you messing with me?

So you missed everything that happened between those two events?

 

[Leafs27]

Have the leafs had a good scoring chance yet?

Best potential chance was Nylander at the left side of the net there.

 

[The Kessel Run]

Really not a bad period, but not great either.

 

[8816 others]

Most players of other teams would not have put that much effort into avoiding the goalie if it were the Leafs goalie.

 

[Kamiccolo]

Marner looked so Orr-like there. Well...without the goal ofcourse.

And the generational ability

 

[mulefarm]

Lol the guy gets paid more than Larkin and Pastrnak and he isn't worth their pinky

Look at that last play where he turned the puck over because he was too afraid to take some contact

I hope one play doesn’t define a player?

 

[Canada4Gold]

Thought they got rid of the thing where if they get the puck first you can trip players at will. Maybe goalies are exempt IDK

 

[Throw More Waffles]

You said he gave the puck away. Barrie had it on a tee then sent a weak one. How was that his giveaway?

Yeah, well, maybe Nylander should have scored a goal instead of whiffing on the puck. I'm sure Barrie was as surprised/baffled that a professional would just whiff on the puck as I was.

I blame Nylander more than Barrie.

 

[Riellyfan04]

How do goalies get away wit so much shit in hockey. Marner fully got tripped and tackled down by the goalie. When goalies are out of the crease it should be free to hitt

 

[IPS]

What a freaking unstructured mess this team is my God

 

[Bigmarycombo]

No wonder Babcock has no use for willy

Never saw any other player in the league who avoids contact like that

I’d trade him tonight between periods

 

[The Kessel Run]

Marner looked so Orr-like there. Well...without the goal ofcourse.

Colton?

 

[Hustlr]

Rielly-Ceci
Muzzin - Marincin
Dermott - Holl

I don’t give a ****! Get this fool off the ice he’s like the defensive Nylander without any of the positives.

 

[Maplebeasts]

Yeah, well, maybe Nylander should have scored a goal instead of whiffing on the puck. I'm sure Barrie was as surprised/baffled that a professional would just whiff on the puck as I was.

I blame Nylander more than Barrie.

Oh my god. You are actually irrational and can't be helped.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

So you missed everything that happened between those two events?

I blame the Nylander whiff more than anything that happened thereafter for the next 5 seconds.

Maybe professionals shouldn't whiff on the puck.

 

[Beyonder91]

So i see we're getting to the point where folks literally blaming Nylander for another player's error?

Nylander only has himself to blame for bailing to clear the puck to avoid a hit

 

[Legendary]

Boy oh boy it’s hard to watch this ‘team’

 

[Hustlr]

No wonder Babcock has no use for willy

Never saw any other player in the league who avoids contact like that

I’d trade him tonight between periods

Phil Kessel. And ya, sucks we’ve had both and know it doesn’t get any softer.

 

[Trapper]

Marner looked so Orr-like there. Well...without the goal ofcourse.

And winning the Cup as a result. But keep trying.

 

[Cleetus]

What a freaking unstructured mess this team is my God

players should start listening to the coach than they probably be ok.

 

[2 Slick]

What a freaking unstructured mess this team is my God

It's been like that all season. I don't get it.

 

[mcleex]

the pro scouts messed up big time on this one. If they knew he couldnt play any D and was only offence, why tf did they get him.

Team is stacked with scoring - they need a defensive stopper

That's not on the scouts. That's straight up Dubass incompetence

 

[Notsince67]

And the generational ability

He doesnt bail like your boy

 

[Martin Skoula]

Yeah, well, maybe Nylander should have scored a goal instead of whiffing on the puck. I'm sure Barrie was as surprised/baffled that a professional would just whiff on the puck as I was.

I blame Nylander more than Barrie.

Are you sure Nylander isn't in on the conspiracy with Tavares?

 

[LastOne2100]

players should start listening to the coach than they probably be ok.

I disagree. I think listening to this coach IS the problem.
