GDT: Taylor vs Ty(ler). Oilers vs The Center of the Universe. 5 PM, SN, CBC.

[5 Mins 4 Ftg]

.
.
.
.
.

The gravitational pull from the center of the universe disrupts rational thought so badly that Leaf fans think somehow Austin Matthews is on par with McDavid.

.
.
.
.
.

And we all know the Leafers plan the parade every October and their golf schedules near the end of April.

.
.
.
.
.

The Canadian Toronto media knock themselves out year after year telling us that this year it will be different.

.
.
.
.
.

The fact remains that the Leafs have never won more than 2 playoff series in a row - ever - and their last championship was almost 60 years ago when color TV hadn’t been invented yet and it was a 6 team league.

.
.
.
.
.

So tonight we get to hear endlessly how good Tanev is good at blocking shots, Stolarz is a Vezina candidate, Domi is such a hard worker, and Austin looks better in a pants suit than Hillary Clinton and has better taste in purses.

.
.
.
.

Win or lose tonight it doesn’t matter, we all know one thing.

Live at 5!!!

Incoming Stolarz god-tier performance against us, because of course.

It seems like it vs every goalie we face.

I hope they trade Skinner away just so you have nothing to talk about.

I have 2 jobs and both have multiple supervisors who are Laughs fans

A win tonight would be so savory and sweet

 

[MessierII]

I feel like we play well in TO generally but struggle against them at home. Either way no Matthews is a big blow to them. Still a skilled team. Hopefully we come to play.

 

[CrazyJoeDavola]

We need to stop with the Matthews being a generational player nonsense. He's literally just a prime Dany Heatley.

He is an elite goalscorer, maybe generational in that regard. But he doesn't hold a candle to McDavid.

I would go with Pickard in this one. He’s done pretty well in his last 5 games. Ride the hotter goalie

Have to give "Anointed Grant Fuhr cuz Mustache" his starts no matter what.

This team and it's stupid ridiculous biases (nice we also played Desharnais while Broberg got no.7 D minutes and Kesselring didn't get a chance at all).

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Remember when Stolarz played for the Oilers lol

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

OMG we're going to Taylor Swift!

That was an aggressive amount of Taylor swift

 

[oobga]

Wow. Just taking a massive dump on what qualified as “generational talent”. There must be a dozen+ this generation.

 

[LevelingSolo]

They typically stink in Toronto for whatever reason

With skinner starting I’m just hoping for the best

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

3-1 Oilers.

Draisaitl (x2), Hyman

Skinner 36 saves.

 

[JordanGalhanth]

Hoping for a "reverse goalie jinx" tonight. Skinner puts up a 50-save shutout ala Ben Scrivens, and Hyman gets a hat trick.

 

[dssource]

Glad they don't have the milestone to think about tonight so they can go in and focus on proper hockey and winning tonight.

I'm heading out to a bar with my leaf friends for this one so I really hope the Oilers dominate this game from start to finish and win this game handily. Oilers still only playing at 60-70% and are still the better team, so hopefully they show everyone exactly that please.

 

[Vagabond]

The Der Mott is laced up!

Skins better at least be average tonight.

Scorey Perry will be the savior. He's going to play greasy af!

Podz gets the Gordy Hatty!

Let's go streaking!

 

[McHelpus]

Maybe this east coast trip can get Jeff Skinner going. Does anyone know what Victor Arvidsson injury is? I hope it's not his back.
