GDT: Toronto Maple Leafs at New York Rangers - Jan 19th, 2022 - 7:30 SN/TNT

[frizzer1]

They’ve had plenty of chances.
Just can’t convert.

 

[Man Bear Pig]

We have to make changes on D.

What other options are there? Holl and Muzzin are out.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Team is a f***ing embarrassment. How many 3-1 leads have they given up in the last 5 games? Pathetic.

5 two goal leads in 5 games?

 

[2 Slick]

Pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, JT gives it away, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, pass, Marner undresses D, pass, pass, finally a shot.

Garbage powerplay.

 

[TheShape]

That's bs from Strome, knew exactly what he was doing

 

[dubplatepressure]

Ahhhh yesssss.... Another 3-1 lead. Another full fledged Chicken Littleing from these Leafs.

Rinse and repeat. The lesson never seems to be learned.

It's a 60 minute game. Stop sniffing own farts after 20 minutes of hockey.

some really concerning trends that are resurfacing. Questions needs to be asked. This is years of this nonsense.

 

[Racer88]

We have to make changes on D.

I don’t see how they can. There is no cap room for for any meaningful improvement and they needs lots of changes to our D

 

[al secord]

The key is to keep it tied until overtime. Do not take the lead.

 

[keonsbitterness]

It feels like a playoff crowd lol.

Wish our building would sound 25% like this.

Their fans are (mostly in a good way) nuts.

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

3-1 is the new 4-1. Team needs to be better.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Close but no Bob Seger.

Haha ha
We certainly look like we are against the wind don’t we

 

[Aashir]

Well campbell hasn’t been good enough

 

[Coachcorner]

We gizotsa gangsta that powerplay up in the dirty third....

 

[Maplebeasts]

That was a bad play by Liljegren but that was his only real mistake this game so far. Sandin has been way worse. Also Campbell is making the defense look way worse than it has been. He's been bad for about 5 games now.

 

[LaPlante94]

How I wish we had a point man who can shoot.

They'd be wasted. All we try to do on our PP is give it to Matthews or Marner on the outside and have them rip it.

 

[Leafsfan74]

And Lilly wonders why he can't get a regular spot in the lineup. Brutal giveaway.

If it were my team I'd be looking for a legitimate, physical #4 to be paired with Muzzin, drop Holl down to 5 with Dermot (or Sandin, though I prefer Dermot come playoffs).

Leafs can score. They need physicality in this lineup, preferably in the back IMO.

 

[Canadian Finn]

some really concerning trends that are resurfacing. Questions needs to be asked. This is years of this nonsense.

nah, as per earlier thread, we are watching history in the making.

 

[Hockey Crazy]

Need to get back on their toes. They’ve been pushed back on their heels way too often lately.

 

[CelticDruid]

Sandin/Lily not looking good

Dermott has been bad too.

 

[2 Slick]

5 two goal leads in 5 games?

They gave up a 4 to 1 lead against the Avs, 3 to 1 lead against Vegas, 3 to 1 lead against St. Louis, several leads in that same game, gave up a 3 to 1 lead tonight.

 

[The Examiner]

Leafs have been the better team. They’ve had many more chances and need to finish. Rangers have converted on the few chances they’ve had.

 

[All Mod Cons]

What other options are there? Holl and Muzzin are out.

In the broader sense. They need an overhaul. Even if you out Muzzin and Holl back in, this group isn't taking us 4 rounds.

You hear from people how amazing our depth is. And then they get called up and we get a chance to see them play. Not good.

 

[Carltons Cup]

A little bit of physicality and we cave like wimps.

This is how playoff hockey is played. The boys better grow some bigger balls or figure out how to deal with it in the last half of the season.

 

[saffronleaf]

lol JT shouldn't be tipping those Matthews shots. those are labelled. let it go, the goaltender will too.

 

[keonsbitterness]

Back to too slow and deliberate with the passes again

Looking for the perfect play again.
