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

@zeke

is Matthews > Mcdavid still?
How about AM > Drai

 

[Scion]

Dear Babcock,

Try Galcy on the first line.

Love,

The Fans.

I think they should try Matthews and Nylander and JT and Marner. I don't know if it will make a difference, but you have to try something because the offense has been anemic all month.

 

[SoVi3t]

No fights, no hits, no shots, no hussle, no effort

Glad they showed up tonight...

 

[Gabriel426]

Will we see Hyman-AM-Willie?
Simmonds-JT-Marner?

 

[34]

UFC is my new best friend

Heavyweight title fight tonight. Lets go LOL.

 

[Cap'n Flavour]

Kerfoot and Co. minus 3

It doesn't help that Muzzin went for a swim on the last two goals against. He looks totally lost.

 

[1specter]

UFC is my new best friend

If Stipe loses tonight too I might cry

 

[Leafs87]

Any possibility we can dump the captain to Vegas?
Jk I know his NTC won allow that.

 

[Battle Lin]

ok dont put a 4th line enforcer that stands infront for garbage goals on your 1 line or 2 line

and dont have a 4c engvall center your 3c line ok

 

[Sniper99]

I can’t stand him on the powerplay. He can’t shoot and he can’t get pucks through. Worst thing of all is that he looks off Matthews and shoots himself. Watch for it but be prepared to be p!ssed off if you do

Just another day at the office for Morgan ****head Reilly

 

[wingman75]

Raise your hand if you still claim 88 > Drai.

Who tf ever actually thought that? They should turn in their nhl fan credentials and close the door on the way out.

The question is, is Matthews better than Drai? Not tonight.

 

[Wendelstache]

names plese

Brodie has a good shot

 

[Azazel]

Oh mann nobody took barrie there........ embarassing.

We needs to toughen it up in the dirty third. Fight kassian etc. Simmonds finna thug it up soon I love IT!!!

Also uh, campbell hasn't been much better than freedy in these last two gezames. I like campbell and his energy, but fredy is aaaight too. We have a real battle on the goalie department sire. I love THAT TOO. Makes us stronger, and thugger.

Gonna need Simmonds to Twerk right between their ears.

 

[Leafsfan74]

They refuse to go into the dirty areas. The teams all play the Leafs the same way. Even Simmonds looks shy to play near the crease.

It is what it is. As it's been for five years. A few tweaks that were working out well, the initial commitment seems to have worn off.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

I do think we have to be fair, we have hit the post 3 times tonight. But everything is going in for the Oilers

This is all becoming an excuse FAR too often. The offense can't finish, and it's blamed goaltending, posts, "nagging injuries", etc.

I'm just sick of all of it.

 

[Mats13]

WHY IS JOE STILL ON THIS LINE?

There is no justifiable reason

 

[Mr Hockey]

This game is over.

its only a 2 goal lead lol relax

 

[TheRexman]

I'm gonna go out on a limb, Jack is probably not the answer going forward.

This team as it's built is not the answer. I bet the habs go further this year again and it's seriously going to be crap living where I do.

 

[SoVi3t]

Why are people asking for Nylander on the first line, as if he's played well enough to deserve that, at any point this season?

 

[Leaffan1991]

You guys are so critical of goalies.. this game is not campbells fault. The only one he should have saved was the first one.

how about our defensive coverage??
Our top 4 forwards are doing absolutely nothing but getting paid to be the stars of the league.

 

[CapspaceKiller]

Brodie's having one of his few off games tonight

 

[Dragao6]

Remember when this team was dominating the oilers for 3 wins in a week
Everyone here were getting ready for a long playoff run
And looking at what trade to make for rental for the playoff run?

haha I’m not sure they make playoffs
Everyone else’s big boys get paid and produce
Ours...eh

 

[IrishInOntario]

Maybe Matthews actually is better than Drai. And maybe even McDavid.

The difference is that EVERY SEASON Matthews (allegedly) battles through a "nagging injury".

I'm completely over his "nagging injuries".

He's not close to McDavid. That's not even a discussion. His comparison to Draisaitl is a better discussion, but the big German is better than him right now.

 

[LastOne2100]

Smith latest goalie to shutdown our elite offense.

At this point, I almost wonder if there is a goalie that can't shut down our offense.

 

[MSZ]

He wasn't good last game either?

His giveaways aside, he posted a .935 last game.

Tonight he hasn't been good enough though.
