GDT: Sens @ Leafs pre-season - 7PM EST

[keonsbitterness]

Does this count?

Maybe I'll read that later.

 

[Fonzieleaf]

I haven't even seen Chadwick yet.

 

[SprDaVE]

Woll looked really good. Pacioretty, Tavares and Grebenkin looked solid. Cowan looks pretty good. Matthews and Marner invisible. Knies looked more noticeable when he got a shift with Nylander and Domi.

Not many people stand out in a period where you get 1 shot, a lot of players just shaking off rust and playing at a lower level. The forecheck and cycle play has been putrid. Every time you get 3 PKs and 0 PPs it's a bad time.

I haven't even seen Chadwick yet.

Not dressed, unfortunately.

 

[PromisedLand]

What a f***ing cringe fest trying to make angry and frustrated fans not question marner's failures

WTF

 

[Fonzieleaf]

Not dressed, unfortunately.

Oh I thought I saw he was on the roster tonight.

 

[notbias]

Oh I thought I saw he was on the roster tonight.

Unless they can carry more than 20... He was the 7th D

Will say it is kind of funny us getting outshot 14-1, while the Keefe Devils are outshooting the Isles 11-8 considering the narrative sorrounding both Leafs and Keefe
Just pre season so nothing to be concerned about yet though.

 

[Racer88]

We shouldn’t have to be making excuses already for a crappy first period but here we are

 

[horner]

Woll showed up

 

[keonsbitterness]

Started late and just finished the 1st. Only one shot???

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

The PK is 3/3 thanks to Woll.

Literally EVERYBODY else sucked in that 1st period.

Knock the rust off early

 

[Leafs98]

The only thing more meaningless than pre-season NHL is pre-season NFL.

I Just realized i chose this game over nfl regular season :-0

 

[Smif]

Just watched the Marner interview. Man, I love him as a player but I want him to bring up winning the cup so bad.

 

[notbias]

Some actual positives I saw:

Reaves was making some hits and didn't look like he was chasing (my biggest complaint).
Greb looked good and calm with the puck.
Woll looked good, not a fan of getting beat clean like he did, but overall great.

Not much to comment on... too many penalties and the flow was off.

Well it’s just the optics, yeah don’t worry we got this just stretching things out coach but don’t worry we will be there when it counts. It’s not like we are the defending champs.

Woll is the only one that looked good

 

[notbias]

Another positive... hopefully Matthews PKs this year, he is our best PKer.

 

[arso40]

Rielly cant and wont ever be capable to play strong defense vs a teams best players

Harsh fact Ive had to accept despite him being my favorite player

Hope is we add another top4D at the TDL who can take tougher minutes and reduce his defense concerns or one who provides more offense so he can be less offense pinch heavy so his flaws and weaknesses arent exposed as much

exactly why it should have been him traded not the younger sandin who thinks the game better than rielly he just cant skate like him

 

[Reijo]

Woll is a stud

He is so talented yes. Looks to be in form, so calm always. Lets see if our Nylander Domi line can stick. They will play together next time also. Berube has already promised that to nylander. When the season goes on.... we might need a new center though. A vet. If nylander cant do it.

 

[DitchMarner]

WTF was that first period? It's not the playoffs yet... lmao. Wake the f*** up. Absolutely brutal start to the pre-season.

 

[arso40]

Another positive... hopefully Matthews PKs this year, he is our best PKer.

and it aint even close

 

[Evilhomer]

Seriously? Pre-season NHL might be the biggest waste of time in sports. It means absolutely nothing. The Leafs could be outshot 60-1 and it would have zero impact on their season.

 

[TMLAM34]

I don’t think the Nylander - Domi duo is even good on paper let alone on the ice. And then you’re throwing Nylander in a new-old position he hasn’t played in years… I don’t think those two will last very long together.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Can't wait for Antropovsky to break down all Marner's mistakes in that interview.
