GDT: Tampa @ Leafs 7:30pm Oct 21st 2024

[LeafalCrusader]

3rd line is soft and purposeless.

 

[Leafsfan74]

Can we just please get all the games on one single service AND in 4k???

For f***s sake

No. It's about profits. Sportsnet overpaid, as such, they were forced to offload some games.

Expect it to continue unless there is going to be a Prime-like streaming product that buys all the games. If they do, expect Prime (or whichever company gets it) to increase significantly.

Don't forget that cable prices went up immediately after Sportsnet won the NHL rights. When you dish out over $5B for 12 years it is a hell of a gamble. I'm guessing they lost large.

 

[SprDaVE]

So many dumb turnovers right now

 

[therealkoho]

Time to get one back let's go boys

 

[TheBeastCoast]

We carried the first half of the period....got a PP. Shit it away, and Tampa has controlled the rest of the period.

 

[Racer88]

We have the 2nd best GA in Eastern conference?

With plays like that it won’t be for long

 

[tmlms13]

Considering this broadcast in only available in Canada they certainly talk about Tampa Bay a lot.

I bet Bonsie would do this game for free if the asked

 

[sunstersun]

I got an idea for the PP.

Matthews, Roberson, Nylander, OEL and Knies.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Has Marc Savard done anything since landing in Toronto other than hit the buffets?

Must’ve found Keefe’s list of favourite lunch spots.

 

[weems]

We have played pretty well to start the year, working hard, have looked good defensively but if our PP doesn't start producing, we won't go anywhere.

McMann has had a strong start to the season.

 

[Blanka]

Stopped skating

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Someone remind Mitch he’s in a contract year.

 

[IronHookem]

Is there a rule against it or what? It was a stupid play.

Too many people on this board are in love with Benoits physicality, but that's about the only thing he brings to the table that's a positive....

Yeah it is fair to say the PP is a critical issue at this point. Like they either figure it out or we won't win in the playoffs lol

 

[Burnie97]

The Tampa guy legit just held the Leaf player for 10 seconds to keep the puck in. Leafs should of had 3 or 4 powerplays.

 

[Blanka]

Who's the bald lurker eyeing up the panel?

 

[MSZ]

Sportsnet covers the games "in 4k" but uses 99% compression to produce the same level of quality as the YouTube fat lightsaber kid ca. 2007.

At the beginning they used real 4K cameras. But in recent years I'm pretty sure they just upscaled regular broadcasts for those 4K channels to save production costs.

Not free. Gotta be some adult beverages thrown in.

 

[supermann_98]

That OEL hit on Cernak to stop play on the delayed penalty has me impressed with how much I like this guy already. Can't stand Cernak! Excellent signing so far by Tre

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Who's the bald lurker eyeing up the panel?

He looks like Boba/Jango Fett.

 

[fahad203]

Berube cannot be happy with the 2nd half of that period

That PP is horrible

 

[MoreMogilny]

Benoit isn’t very good

 

[therealkoho]

Who's worse the chick or the greatest captain of all time

 

[Leafsfan74]

Someone remind Mitch he’s in a contract year.

No please, don't.

It's time to move on. Has been for 3-4 years IMO.

and to save bandwidth on the lines that they also own
