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

[BertCorbeau]

Nice to not get swept and see effort to not fold. Only saw the third but they were a lot cleaner with the puck, sharp like we saw mostly in the regular season.

Really nice to see Nylander and Marner step up, particularly Marner on the GWG.

Woll is looking good.

Home ice hasn't been kind to them in these playoffs, but if they can win that one .. they have some momentum going.

 

[SprDaVE]

Leafs with a full 60 minute effort. We win game 5 and the comeback is on. No chance? We got a lifeline.

When the Leafs give you full of hope, that's when they pull the rug.

I'm happy now but my confidence and expectations are still at 0.

 

[Sniper99]

Marner is cringe

Did we win?!!!!


SHHHHH

 

[LeafGrief]

Woll was excellent. The core 4 looked like 7m players, which is a marked improvement over game 3.

Our defense cannot pass out of the zone to save their lives, but at least we generated chances.

Ultimately, I expect this is just extending the misery and I was fully hate watching tonight, but a win is a win. Go Leafs Go.

They played well. Bobrovski was the only reason it wasn't a landslide win. Leafs need to figure out Bob because they won't survive against the Panthers with scoring only 2 goals a game.

Woll was good. He's a beast for sure but the Leafs played well defensively.

Matthews needs to wake up. 0 goals in 4 games is unacceptable.

He honestly can't do any more than he's done tonight.
Whether the puck goes in or not is not within his control, Bob was just unreal....again.

 

[On-the-Fly]

If I hear Maurice bitch and give passive aggressive gestures about refereeing after tonight...

What? You gonna want him back?

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Bennett and Gudas are neanderthals on skates doing reckless stuff in the name of playoff hockey

 

[Isaac Nootin]

much better defensively. i think woll was always better than samsonov

Not sure he's better, but he's much more calm/positionally sound. Must give confidence to the Leafs defensively.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Tons of great efforts tonight. Willy, Woll and Schenn were top three for me.

 

[leafsfan5]

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

 

[the squared circle]

All in all it’s just a-nother Joseph Woll

 

[3blizzard4]

Listen to his post game interview

I did.

What did he say that was cringe?

 

[Nineteen67]

That 3rd period was so refreshing to watch.
Blocked shots, won or tied almost every puck battle, smart chip outs and chip ins, great forechecking.
Didn’t allow Florida to gain any momentum in the last 5 mins.

He's playing godly. Like honestly... he's bound to have a bad game or two... right? I don't think he's let in a bad goal so far.

 

[Sypher04]

I thought the core group were all good tonight, but they all most definitely have more still they can give which bodes well. Let’s keep up the 60 minute effort and elevate

 

[DarkKnight]

34 was still underwhelming, “superstar” looks an embarrassing tag, never another gear. Don’t get it.

 

[HEAVY DUTY]

Gudas better get suspended.

oh who am I kidding. He'll probably get a high-five from Parros. POS.

 

[SprDaVE]

What? You gonna want him back?

They Ufa? I'd sign both of them.

Only 8? I'm in for for 11. Book it.

 

[TiMo15]

Schenn stick save in the last few mins of the game was already worth his contract.

 

[ACC1224]

I didn't realize how much I hated Bennett before this series

Should have been a Leaf

 

[Leafs1993]

Leafs. In. 7.
