GDT: Season Opener | Leafs vs Habs 7pm EST | Winning For Rodion

[Racer88]

on a deflection like that? It seems you never have played goal before.

How about the goal they just scored.
we have 30 shots and 3 goals.
they have 16 shots and 4 goals.
hmmmmmmmm

 

[TakeTheBody]

At least Brodie looks good. Eye roll.

 

[Macallan18]

So how are Sammy”s stats looking tonight?

 

[fahad203]

This defence is ass...but Treliving did good right???

That had nothing to do with D, that was a bad giveway by our forward
One was a deflection on PP

Brodie one was bad but he was also under other GM's here

 

[HogTown06]

Might as well give Woll a chance, Samsonov was the weaker goalie in every game he played in the playoffs last season anyway.

I know Gio screened him on the PP but he's been terrible too.

 

[Forgotusername]

Pull this bum.... Why always wait until the game is out of each

Both goals were tipped, that's not on Sammy. That's on the player not getting the puck out when they could have.

 

[34]

Woll should get the next start. Not impressed with Sam at all.

 

[djdev]

and that my friends is why JT is bad.

 

[Stephen]

Hard to blame Samsonov tonight but that's what #1 goaltenders do. They make saves. 3 goals on 14 shots is terrible. Allen has outplayed him by a large margin.

I don’t think “blame” is the right word but gradual erosion of confidence is going to be the result. He’s basically spotted 5 including that goal that was called back.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Not an elite team...

 

[Aashir]

So how are Sammy”s stats looking tonight?

He stops 3 out of every 4 shots

That’s a B in school, F on the ice though

 

[ACC1224]

Domi wasn't hemmed in he was dumb.

That sums it up

 

[A1LeafNation]

Who brought a forward with no defensive awareness in? Right.

 

[The Management]

I knew Newhook was going to be a good pickup for them.

 

[PromisedLand]

these are the 2 points we should be getting. we threw away points against garbage all last season. We gotta be better COME ON

 

[Divine]

Hard to blame him for last 2

Hard to give him credit for making himself as small as possible any chance of a screen

 

[Racer88]

Yup. Our defence is suspect and our goaltending is very suspect

 

[Strangle]

Six goals on one net, one on the other. Ice be tilted. At least we’ve scored more than two goals for the first time in months. Let’s get a couple more.

It only looks that way because the leafs only Ike playing for one period

 

[BertCorbeau]

Allen's game savers on that Matthews shift are the difference... he's out-goalie-ing sammy

 

[Dave92]

Both goals were tipped, that's not on Sammy. That's on the player not getting the puck out when they could have.

Tips can't be stopped? He's allowed 4 goals on 4 straight shots....

 

[93gilmour93]

Both of the goals in the third period were through traffic. I don’t think Sammy saw either of them

 

[CaptainCrunch17]

He's being replaced by AI.

Sportsnet can’t afford to have him broadcast from the actual game, so he’s broadcasting from the sewer.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Samsonov 4 goals on 15 shots

When can we start worrying?

Dec 1st

 

[PeteBestondrums]

Is there anyone else missing Schenn yet? He was a real steadying force back there.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

This game just feels like an OT loss
