GDT: Vancouver @ Toronto- 7pm HNIC

Gonna have to find their way against good teams coming up too. Maybe its what they need to realize how to play hockey.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Man. That Matthews, Marner and Knies line has looked beer league level bad the last 4 periods.

WTF is wrong with them?

Not having Reavo in the lineup for the last 4 periods is affecting the whole team.

 

[ACC1224]

Great shift

 

[93gilmour93]

Good passing setting up that Robertson chance. More of that

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

How did Robertson not score there?

 

[keonsbitterness]

Good shift.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Matthews and Marner have exceptionally low floors to their game when things aren't going well.

They don't look interested. They look very lazy.

 

[Leafsfan74]

Wow, nice pass, shot and save,.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Time to switch up the lines.
McMann Matthews Robertson
Pacioretty Tavares Marner
Knies Domi Nylander

I am still asking why, after showing so much chemistry and potential last year, Domi has spent 0 seconds on Matthews wing

 

[CelticDruid]

Best shift of the game from Dumi and the crew

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

If only Simpson would be given a night off.

Why doesn't he just take the rest of his life off

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Damn what a pretty passing play.

 

[Cleetus]

Robbie got Robbed!

 

[shaner8989]

Good shift

 

[Blanka]

Great shift! We need the rest of the team to play with that level of intensity and purpose.

 

[MSZ]

It's time to make mediocre goalie look like prime Hasek again.

 

[leafan11]

You don’t know hockey if you think Robertson doesn’t belong on the team.

 

[All Mod Cons]

I'd sit the top line for a while. Show them it's not acceptable the way they are playing. No point blaming Nylander and Robertson all the time and then just let this happen.

 

[BayStBullies]

Vancouver gets away with so much clutching and grabbing, they might as well not carry sticks

 

[Cleetus]

wonder what Lee Stempniak is doing these days lol

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Break up the top line.

 

[Leafs98]

Vancouver gets away with so much clutching and grabbing, they might as well not carry sticks

Playoff style hockey

 

[mikeyz]

How did Robertson not score there?

Because he's just not good enough most of the time.

 

[Leafsfan74]

What are you even trying to say? That this team is soft? Because you need to watch the NHL. This team is one of the tougher ones in the league. The sport has changed

Obviously there isn't going to be such a team today. The point was in regards to the quick shift in the team direction after two straight playoff losses to the same team. In both series, they were outmuscled even though they had skill.

Don't forget what that same team did to the RUssians. The only team to beat them. They hit everything in site and with purpose.

I figure it's because we don't have any capable 3Cs right now
