GDT: The Edmonton Oilers visit your Toronto Maple Leafs for HNIC.

Nylander needs to drive once in a while.

He totally had the step and did his mandatory button hook. He’s the most predictable forward on our team.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Puck bouncing everywhere, players falling down and whiffing on shots and passes

Yep. Typical home game.

 

[Teeder Keon]

TD always seems to be in between thoughts and plays and passes and recognition , on and on and on
I used to be very high on him
But I really think we need to upgrade there big time for the playoffs and go with our own next year

10-4 SOG.

Locked them down really well.

 

[TMLegend]

Pretty uneventful period overall. Solid amount of zone time, but aside from the Spezza chance they didn't generate much. Playing very well defensively though.

Why doesn't anyone try to hit McDavid during one of his rushes and get in his head ?

Matthew's gets hit regardless . Just hit him Muzzy

Both he and Drai should be hit mercilessly the way Tanev was manhandling Matthews. Just Business.

 

[PromisedLand]

who is the shooter on matthews line with matthews' wrist issue? got two set up man in jumbo and marner but seriously who is gonna rip it if matthews has wrist issues?

 

[Future]

Galchenyuk looks legit. Give him more responsibility. It’s be nice to see what we truly have in him before we give up a first round pick plus a top prospect for a forward.

 

[egd27]

Let me guess......we're way ahead based on what Excel expected?

 

[Cor]

I’ll probably regret this, but the Oilers are an incredibly dull, bad team when 97 is off the ice

 

[6ix]

Boring game

 

[BTP]

We're better, just need to finish these chances.

Side note: KONG VS ZILLA looks awesome... Cant believe I cannot see that in a Theater... smh.

 

[francis246]

Nylander and JT need to be split up. Same with Marner and Matthews, mix it up a bit. Keefe better get the same gripe Babcock did when he didn't change lines. It's getting annoying.

We know that JT and Marner works, I don't understand why we went away from that.

 

[saffronleaf]

Bad giveaway aside, Tavares looks a bit better.

 

[frizzer1]

With Matthews hurt, this team doesn’t have much ability to score. So they have to play tight defense with good goaltending and wait for a break.

 

[Voodoo Child]

 

[Stonehands 1]

Leafs constantly have the Oilers hemmed in their own zone and the Oilers are constantly clutching and grabbing, yet no penalties. hmmmmm

I think that other teams have the option of being the only wat to stop the leafs, thereby legal

 

[NK94]

Pretty solid period.

 

[PromisedLand]

Craig Simpson is right. The blue liners on the point need to be utilized better by the attack so we aren’t just creating a traffic jam in the high slot.

you mean those high danger corsi forced isn't that high danger?

 

[saffronleaf]

Both he and Drai should be hit mercilessly the way Tanev was manhandling Matthews. Just Business.

Drai deserves it especially, he's a bit of a douche out there.

 

[egd27]

who is the shooter on matthews line with matthews' wrist issue? got two set up man in jumbo and marner but seriously who is gonna rip it if matthews has wrist issues?

Very fair question

Your eye test is working!

 

[MattySnipes]

You can't hit what you can't catch.

 

[MSZ]

it's hopeless. he will never change those duos.

JT looked a lot better with Marner during Matthews' off nights.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Good period
Great period by Hyman and Soup digging
JT very good period other than his Giveaway
What the hell do 47 and 15 do for us ?
Good period from Marner
Really good period from AG
