Two good, dynamic teams that are in a rough patch. Wild have lost 3 of 4 and 4 of 7, much like the Leafs.

But they're a good and deep team that can score with anyone.

Tonight's gonna be a slumpbuster for one team or the other. Better be us.

Lineups are accurate i think - though zuccarello may be questionable to play:

Just get a W. Solid goaltending and battle along the boards.

No stupid give aways.

Shots on net and rebounds. Stop trying to pass it into the net.

Sure it could of been but how often does this happen league wide. It's Iike the league is mad he draws too many penalties as a Leaf player.

They haven't been able to suspend anyone in a while on the Leafs so...

no diving citations for bunting prior to being a leaf, of course.

Matthews gets no calls because he doesn't dive, now bunting won't get any more calls because he dives.

Yup. Can't win either way.

Meanwhile Mcjesus draws all the penalties... yes he is the best but matthews in comparison gets barely any.

The league really needs to take a look at how shitty and bias they are towards certain players and teams.

Um what? Maybe it was a dive, not sure you can tell anything from that video but it certainly wasn't egregious. Bunting does initiate contact that could create a penalty regularly, that looks to me like what he did there, that's not diving though. It's putting yourself in position to draw a penalty - the other player still has to commit the infraction.

We should have won last game .. if we play like last game we should win tonight with a tender who makes all MAKABLE saves .. but it is a BIG IF .. no Holl screw ups to worry about .. Lub screw up was a fluke puck flip on bad ice .. I doubt Mitch makes his mistake again either .. we clean up da errors and make da normal saves and it should be a hard fought win
 
The Senators beat them the other night with speed and a willingness to engage and stand up for themselves. The Leafs have the speed to get it done, but do they have the Will. That's not a mistake.
