GDT: Sens at Leafs 7:00pm on CBC/SNO Sat, Oct 16th

[DarkKnight]

One guy I’m not worried about is Jake Muzzin.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

Sticks hit gloves 20-30 times per game. 1 or 2 of them are randomly called a penalty every game. And the commentators say "Stick in the hands. That's called 100% of the time". Who are they trying to kid?

 

[saffronleaf]

Willy with the PK clear. Never thought I would see the day

Babcock seething

 

[DopeyFish]

so maybe we should take marner off the PK, he seemed more dynamic offensively before he had pk duties added to his plate. dunno

marner is our best PKer tho

 

[ottomaddox]

Lol @ Bonk, Yashin, Alfredsson, and Daigle.

 

[PromisedLand]

the extra focus on crosschecking makes sense - reduce possible injury.

no reason for these weak hooking calls.

Apparently they called a slash on Engvall and not a hook. Refs effing the Leafs AGAIN

 

[DarkKnight]

marner is our best PKer tho

True dat.

 

[dubplatepressure]

marner is our best PKer tho

Maybe from the redline forward.

I don't think anyone can make a case that there's not a very good chance that Liljegren can do a better job on the 2nd pairing than Holl. It's something we have to figure out

We will see how it plays out but I already think Lilly’s decision making looks a lot better than his last stint.

 

[saffronleaf]

wow what a feed by Sandin on the Simmonds goal just saw it now

 

[Bellefour20]

Play a full 60 min game, don't let them back into it, and I might be pleasantly surprised.

 

[Canadian Finn]

yah, when the call is so bad the announcer mixes up what the call even is.....

well, it is telling...

 

[2 Slick]

Still haven't been impressed by our first line so far through three games. Some spurts here and there, but blah.

 

[djdev]

marner is our best PKer tho

i think adding kampf, he will prove to be our best Pker. its just an opinion and not a perfect solution, just spitballing

 

[supermann_98]

Where's the tripping penalty? Wtf is this shit refs?

 

[2 Slick]

No f***ing call? SERIOUSLY? f*** you

 

[Lightsol]

Still haven't been impressed by our first line so far through three games. Some spurts here and there, but blah.

Good thing it's not our regular first line, isn't it?

 

[SprDaVE]

Rielly got hooked in the hands... no call

 

[Man Bear Pig]

He grazed Rielly with his stick. 2 minutes!!

 

[Burnie97]

Did the one guy not get dumped with the puck no where near him before the ice... come on refs

 

[Azazel]

I'll give you 200$ if they call that every time. They don't and they won't.

I'll give you 1000$ if they call that against Boston or in the playoffs.

Exactly. They 'choose' when to call penalties. Score being one factor, and evening penalties up is the other.
I also believe that teams like Boston, get every advantage the league can give them when it comes to 'when' and 'what' they choose to call.
Gotta get rid of Campbell and Walkom before we see any real change.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

We will see how it plays out but I already think Lilly’s decision making looks a lot better than his last stint.

I thought he was quite bad in his first stint, but was very good in the two games last year. He was much better than Holl ever was at the AHL level, so now is a great opportunity for him to prove it in the NHL

 

[Leafidelity]

Oh I see, its only a penalty if WE do it. Right

 

[IPS]

@azael there’s your answer !!

 

[saffronleaf]

surprised there's not as much of the jt - marner magic from days past, but it's only a couple of games in october
