Post-Game Talk: STAYING ALIVE Leafs Win 2-1

[Steven1562]

We only have to do what the Panthers just did.

Actually less. They won 6 straight.

Just need to win 4 straight. Got 1 need 3 more. Not impossible.

 

[CabanaBoy5]

Woll great rebound control, unlike Samsonov. I think we’ve got a good one. Great mental outlook before and after.

Great games by Rielly, Nylander, Acciari, and ROR. Good games by Kampf, Marner, Lily and Schenn. Need more from Matthews, Jarnkrok, McCabe, and Brodie. Brutal games by Giordano, Holl, Tavares, and Kerfoot

 

[All Mod Cons]

Outstanding.

Huge congrats to the players tonight. Excellent as a group and dug deep.

Well done Mitch for the goal.

 

[Ports]

In real life Bennett would be facing f***ing assault charges. He's punching McCabe pinned down in the face with his gloves on. In hockey? "Haha that's the game!! MARNER IS SO SOFT"

I agree Marner is soft but he can’t fight Tkachuk there.

 

[HandshakeLineRespect]

You know fans do exist all over the place right? Not just Toronto and area. They're All Over the place. Vancouver Edmonton Calgary etc. All have Leaf fans. btw avatar mocking Marchand cause he looks sad.

Anyway If the mods have a problem with me being a Leaf fan from Edmonton then i'll worry about it, till then kick rocks

Appreciate the explanation buddy

Woll's cap hit for the next 2 years after this one is $766,667.

 

[GojuLeaf]

Thats very important because i see people saying we should start Woll again(and i agree) but we were honestly quite good in our d zone...Even when they had some breaks our guys would try everything to get the puck back(so many blocks, deflections of our sticks, etc). If our offensive game can be a bit better, this kind of d should be more than good enough.

If fear of the rookie in net is what makes them play well defensively then just keep him in there

Simpler than that. Got 1, need 1.

Heh

I wonder if they can make up some new rule where we get a PP to start game 5, because they got 6 and we got 5 roughing penalties

 

[sxvnert]

That McCabe - Lilly pair was solid, thought McCabe had his best playoff game in a long time

Its shocking that this duo lasted this long in this series. Different opponet = different matchups

 

[HolyCrap]

Now we can finally stop hearing the lame "Leafs haven't won a second round game in 20 years" lines

Good point. That’s worth me drinking a few celebratory beers tonight. Lol.

 

[sxvnert]

11 more to go.

 

[budzz]

Know what??? Forget all the "Leafs have to win 4 straight" crap. They won the first. Smack them hard in game 2 at home. Then we walk into Florida threatening to tie the series after they took 3 straight... see how tight they start gripping their sticks. Tides change we all know this well.

Game at a time. We are a dominant team and next game is at home.

Make it interesting boys.

 

[WillyC]

Friday night we break Florida… 6 in a row was their run.

Not to mention Reinhart spilled onto page 2

The lack of ELCs has hurt Dubas since he took over.

 

[Wendelstache]

thin

Makes sense. Neither McCabe nor Brodie are good at carrying the puck. Lilly is good at it which allows McCabe to focus on the other aspects.

Keefe might found something here and he should ride it, outside of Schenn/Morgan ... Lilly/McCabe looked solid.

 

[LaPlante94]

I agree Marner is soft but he can’t fight Tkachuk there.

He doesn't have to fight him. Refs had them both grabbed. Give him a taste of his own medicine and punch him in the face a couple times with your glove on. Don't just sit there and smile and take it after the games over because nobody is going to the box anyways.

 

[Craig Button]

Bennett is such a bitch. Punching McCabe like a madman while he’s down on the ice. Chickenshit move.

Should get suspended for that

 

[pcruz]

There is no f***ing way Toronto goes 1-5 at home so Friday is 100% a win. I can Messier guarantee that.

Our offense will wake up and score 5-6. I f***ing know it.

Put the pressure back on these frauds in Game 6 and bring it home.

If we put 5 or 6 by Bob and break his spirit, this is Toronto's to win.

He's been unbelievable.

Lyon would probably wilt under the Leafs pressure.

What the team needs to do is to take away Bob's eyes and shoot through the first screen more often.
Just like they did to Vasi.

 

[MarnerElite]

Keefe needs to keep that fast line the same for next game as they can take advantage of Panthers' d that like to push forward.

 

[saffronleaf]

won the game that's all that matters

this is still not leafs at their peak but they got the job done tonight

woll was amazing

panthers are such a f***ing dirty team. very late hit on kampf that would likely injure many. if that was a tampa player that got hit they would be splayed out on the ice like they got shot and then try to ge tup and fall back down flail around like a fish out of water. and then the late hit on reilly and hte punches to marner.

such a dirty dirty team.

I'm so happy, didn't think this game would mean so much, but thank f*** we won it.

 

[PromisedLand]

wait what? is he streaming on those interesting "websites" too because he has had enough of the HNIC bullshit of Ron

 

[DarkKnight]

He played like a 6-7 mil player. It was a lot better than the rest of the series. Still not up to his standard, no where near his money or regular season.

One fluky goal does not make a game.

I‘m watching a game not running salary theorems. Ya putting pucks on the net, how many have we scored this playoffs. Silly. All you takes are dime store bud, is that irony?
