GDT: Toronto Maple Leafs Versus Boston Bruins Game Two (7:00 PM EST - SN, CBC)

[freddi22cl]

Thing is the series of things leading to that goal was all leafs making a series of mistakes. They’ve been doing it all season though so it’s not really a surprise. Probably can count on my hands the number of times the leafs actually played a solid game this season

coaching

and dont forget undisciplined penalties , see McCabe and Bruins 1st goal

need The Fat Guy fired

need bruins in 4 !!

Why the hell can’t our highly paid star score a dam goal.
They demanded all this money and are getting beat by much lower paid players on Boston.
Pathetic

I mean are we surprised? They routinely come up short when it counts.

Marner is covering the point. Benoit’s man is literally Pasternak and he disengages him to go cover no one in front of the net. Benoit was lost in the sauce there

As Hrudey said, Marner was the safety. He reacted too late to Pasta.

With 8 seconds or whatever left, just collapse to the slot, close all gaps and just get to the intermission. What are we talking about covering the point.

I wasn't gonna drink today, but here we are

 

[freddi22cl]

He's meant for trade bait this summer. Get this locker room cancer out of here

SPOT ON

 

[MapleLeafs94]

Honestly if we trade goalies with either one from Boston, we're in the driver seat in this series easily.

 

[Notsince67]

God damned. Marner trying to blow zone?
Being way off coverage?.
How about people settle down and understand that was a great pass. Marner blew it but he gets zero credit for defense and criticized for not producing offense. Now he is expected to react 0.5 seconds better for a defensive play on a great goal.

Not surprised just frustrated and disgusted with those 3.

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

William Nylander..... please save us.

Yeah we desperately need Willy's game breaking ability. Saying that we have 3 $11M players out there. We shouldn't need the $7M winger to scrape atleast 1 win on the road.

 

[Arzak]

Knies and Tavares more at fault there. I think Marner went to cover the LD at the point that said he went up too much. I am pretty sure he was looking to blow the zone in case Leafs won the puck; which of course Leafs didn't

Yeah, exactly my point Marner was defending like it's PK.

 

[BTP]

That was all Sammy. IF HE COULD PLAY THE PUCK there would have been no f***ing stoppage.

 

[leafsfan5]

It's funny that Boston doesn't even have to play well

They just wait for us to f*** up so they can score on our trash goaltender

 

[stickty111]

William Nylander..... please save us.

People should put some respect in his name. He gets criticism and all he does is improve every year, while Marner gets praise and fails each playoffs.

NO YOU

As Hrudey said, Marner was the safety. He reacted too late to Pasta.

Yes he’s the safety but that’s a bang bang set play. To blame Marner for failing to cover someone else’s assignment in a split second is beyond idiotic.

 

[All Mod Cons]

He was one of our best in game 1 as well, which is a big problem.

Good singing though. Glad we got the 3 years.

Yes he is expected to react that much faster

He’s a non-factor on offence once again, the least he can do is shutdown pastrnak and….Zacha

Guess that’s too much for our selke winger

 

[Racer88]

I wasn't gonna drink today, but here we are

I might take up drinking. Lol

 

[Rielly4]

Mccabe Benoit pair is killing us. Samsonov is pretty bad. JT is a blackhole. Marner isnt good enough to carry a line anymore.

Keefe is gone no matter how many games they are eliminated in. Can't believe Babs took them to game 7 x2 against the Bruins and 5 years later, we are not further ahead. Thanks Dufas.

 

[Sniper99]

I just can't handle Marner any more. I can't handle 40M on these forwards.

Matthews and Nylander are our guys due to already having deals. Please trade Marner and JT

Good luck moving them.

Can we catch one damn break in Boston. Like a late period goal go our way? Please if there is a God out there.

 

[Raging Bull]

What's Ronnie Wilson up to? He could whip this group into shape.

 

[Alamo Leafer]

& FFS, why the F can't our near-70 goal scorer score goals in PO's.
Does his vision get screwy in PO's or something fcol?

 

[Not My Tempo]

Wouldn't shock me if Marner went to another team and put of Conn Smythe worthy performance. Genuinely think it's just a mental thing with him. Him straight up crying in the penalty box against the Habs was enough evidence. The pressure gets to him.
