Post-Game Talk: Record Setting 4-3 OT Win

[Mopar]

Matthews is unreal. This is all happening so fast we have to take time to process and enjoy what he's doing.

 

[Wendelstache]

Glad I didn't go to sleep after the 2nd!

Pretyy hard not to when you have Galley and his Accountant calling the game.

 

[All Mod Cons]

My God, I wish Morgan was captain. The difference listening to him vs Tavares is startling.

 

[Craig Button]

 

[Buds17]

There are no comebacks in OT, Dallas!

The perfect script played out as a hockey game! Our top shelf sniper has a flair for the dramatic!

 

[ULF_55]

Nylander had a great location for watching Matthews score from his pass. The bench.

marner was such a passenger on that goal.

 

[BayStBullies]

Seguin absolutely shit his pants when he glimpsed Matthews blowing by him.

 

[BayStBullies]

I've just been sitting here 20 mins after that goal, trying to process it. Sort of like how the entire Dallas team sat there trying to process Matthews coming through.

You’re ragging on Marner? Unbelievable

 

[LeafChief]

No chance for Campbell on a few of those. He looked good. Team is rolling.

 

[keonsbitterness]

That was really something special.

Should have been an easier win, but a little drama is aight as long as we win.

 

[Superstar]

Glad I’m not working tomorrow. Gonna have some extra beers for #34.

That's almost 3 dozen beers!

 

[Nylanderthal]

Minnesota loses 5-1 Knies’ tourney is over

 

[CelticDruid]

Dominated the game .. Dallas was lucky to get to OT.

The blown leads were frustrating but they didn't shell up like they have before .. Just kept going. Something different about this game.

Matthews made it his night. What a game winner. We need that kind of killer instinct in the playoffs.

Also he needs to make those power moves more often.

Maturity has arrived.

Everyone was a passenger on that goal! Even the Stars were open mouth gaping at it.

Did I really need to add

 

[Dynamite Time]

Stars fan here; we stole a point and Matthews is beautiful.

That was a fun game to watch even though my team lost.

 

[Jmo89]

Don’t see how it’s even possible 34 doesn’t come through in the playoffs now. Isn’t the same player, he’s hit his prime now and it’s ridiculous, 200 feet of it.

I'm a Leafs fan so my instincts are probably off, but I feel better about the Leafs this year than I did against both Montreal and Columbus.

The team will live or die on Matthews and Marner's shoulder. Matthews needs to break through in the tough moments and Marner just needs to be what he is now versus what he was last year.

Obviously league worse goaltending would sink them, but I think Campbell will be good enough. If Matthews and Marner go off in the playoffs they win.

Captain answer

 

[hotpaws]

My God, I wish Morgan was captain. The difference listening to him vs Tavares is startling.

i was thinking the same thing after Rielly's post game interview

he's just a class act and it feels genuine when he speaks unlike listening to that robotic cliche spewing mumbling idiot of a Captain we have

 

[kb]

He’s no Laine though.

And for that we shall be eternally grateful.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Next Leafs win or Islanders loss and we clinch a playoff spot, not that it were ever in doubt.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Matthews is getting the Hart this season. In addition to the Rocket. And of course the Smythe.

Book it.

 

[Bellefour20]

Didn't see the post-game. Did we get more porn music for the OT goal?

Captain Morgan just has a better ring to it. He was my top choice at the time as well.

I think matthews is starting his playoffs beard already.
