Pre-Game Talk: Toronto Maple Leafs at New York Rangers, Feb 28th, 2025, 7pm

[Evilhomer]

What happened to the Rangers' offensive players? Panarin, Laff, Zib...they all look terrible, all at once. And JT Miller is doing nothing.

 

[Community]

JT with a stupid penalty

Wut?

Garbage call. NYR was holding onto his stick and he tried to push him off and he fell.

 

[yubbers]

Can we put Mitch and Tavares back together now.

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Soft ass call.

 

[paul9kariya]

Tavares, too much man

 

[Forgotusername]

If you're going to call a penalty there, both need to go then.

 

[Mr_Fun]

So 2 minutes for shoving?

 

[GQS]

NHL is legit SOFT AS HELL calling these weak ass penalties all the time. They let more physical play go during the 4 Nations Cup by a ton.

 

[AcerComputer]

I think we just have to accept that the NHL is a corrupt league

 

[ULF_55]

That was a brutal call.

That's a Bettman.

 

[Forgotusername]

Puck in no-play zone?

Yeah, the puck was clearly in that zone.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Stupid selfish penalty but JT, only saving grace is next faceoff is at center ice.

 

[Torontonian]

That call against JT was brutal.

 

[Confucius]

That was a brutal call.

That's a Bettman.

He’s probably there cheering on his team

 

[wingman75]

Matthews has had a lot of injuries throughout his career, but I’ve never seen him so ineffective.

Having serious difficulty picking up a pass.

That last PP1 was wrought with laziness. Embarassing.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Really not sure what Matthews is doing
If he's injured, sit him down

He can't be a passenger and wait for that shot all the time

I don't know what you are seeing, looks fine to me he's just not getting the bounces

Lafreniere can barely skate... what a disappointing 1st overall pick

 

[PanniniClaus]

Two players fully engaged.. there is no way that is ever a penalty.. no league in the world.

 

[Torontonian]

I don't know what you are seeing, looks fine to me he's just not getting the bounces

3 posts in two games.. unlucky right now

 

[Schennanigans]

I cannot believed what I just saw. How is that a penalty. That’s a f***en hockey play. That ref is a joke.

 

[Byron Bitz]

Okay I need someone to explain to me why this is a penalty. I really can’t wrap my head around it. Maakinainen initiates contact with Tavares, they have a regular everyday battle for position which Tavares wins, why does Tavares get a penalty?

 

[93gilmour93]

Is Noah Dobson really available?

 

[13pacheco31]

Is Noah Dobson really available?

I'm gonna say 50/50

 

[Cleetus]

Wut?

Garbage call. NYR was holding onto his stick and he tried to push him off and he fell.

Yea seen the replay no penalty there
