swaggy gonna do anything?

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Chucky needs to take over

 

[vendetta]

Let’s be honest this looks like the panthers are throwing this game. It looks very obvious.

It looks like the first two games. Getting caved In

 

[Ghoste]

Unless this is a rope-a-dope, this strategy of trying to win without actually trying is bunk.

I'm guessing the team went to the club last night

He’s playing tonight?

 

[PSLguy]

Panthers just aren't moving the puck quick enough. They hesitate before making a pass which is giving Toronto's PK time to close in on them.

Thought Gudas' hit would wake them up, but unfortunately it hasn't.

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

TV timeout with under 60 seconds left?

 

[ShootIt]

Put it on net and hope for a rebound Ek

 

[Marco 85]

I guess they didn’t think they needed to show up tonight.
That the Leafs would just hand it to them.

 

[Gizmo Tkachuk]

Maurice needs to get these fools into the game

 

[Gentle Man]

What happened to round 1 Tkachuk? Round 1 Bennett?

 

[PanthersHockey1]

Really disappointed by this chicken shit effort so far

This is where I'm at. This has been a tight check-in game and the only goal is some bullshit bounce that worked out for the Leafs. It's gonna be one of those games.

That means skate harder and work harder. That's going to be the difference. Hate to say it but the Leafs look like they want this game a lot more right now.

 

[Ghoste]

Bob doesn’t deserve this effort.

Toronto’s defense has been much better. Everything else has been the same it’s been all series.

Our guys look like they bag skated right before the game.

No, more like terrible telegraph passes and horrible shots.

Complacency has set in. They're just waiting that they'll score couple of lucky goals without working hard towards it.

 

[barkovcanfinnish]

They’re gonna have to get a rebound goal

 

[5 Hole]

We really need to score one this period

 

[iam76]

leafs getting away with tons of grabbing and holding

 

[Gentle Man]

Thank you Bob

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

Bad period, could have been a lot worse.

 

[pantherbot]

From what I can tell, it seems like Leafs have adjusted to our forecheck and are stepping up closer to the redline to disrupt the dump-in and running interference on the forechecker. So we have to adjust to that, maybe stretch it out more instead of trying to dump it in from the redline.

We're one bad bounce off a ref to being a 0-0 game. Both teams are very tight defensively. Still in this one, just need to adjust.
