GDT: Winnipeg Jets @ Toronto Maple Leafs at 7:00pm on SNO

How the f*** are people blaming Andersen on that goal?

 

[Cleatus]

Connor's a rat? Why? He doesn't play dirty

From the close-up of his face, breathing heavily after he scored that goal, he definitely has rat-like features.

 

[saffronleaf]

You do know that nylander has scored 88 goals in his career
And marner has 84

You guys talk like nylander has a lot more goals but it’s close

that's kind of neat #88 has 88g

 

[sxvnert]

Seriously Andersen, suck harder.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Muzzin made an awful play and Holl lost his man. Can't blame Freddy.

Freddy should have had that.

Whatever. Good game so far. Hope they finish strong.

 

[Morgs]

Again... cant blame Fred, but that shot had a 5.8% chance of going in which is the 3rd best chance WPG has had on net and 4th best overall.

The Leafs have been fantastic defenseively and Fred simply cant bail them out on one of the few good chances WPG has gotten.

For reference, the Leafs have had [at least] 15 better chances than that and Helley has stopped 13+ of them.

 

[PromisedLand]

Can't believe you are right. Not many goalies make that save IMO.

imagine the 2nd goal given up the the jets was Freddy pitch forks would be out "cannot control the rebound what a seive"

its almost like people dont know how hockey works; it isn't spread sheet or EA Sports

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

That was all Muzzin's doing and they didn't even mention it

Muzz knew it too. Threw out a loud F-bomb afterwards.

 

[francis246]

You mean Holl? Holl just skated away from his guy.

Muzzin turned it over instead of making a play off the boards, he fanned on it

 

[shaner8989]

Pure and utter domination. Yet we will find a way to lose

Anderson sucks. Right through him

 

[The Blueprint]

So yea, he got open and a shot in close... Half posters say you cant blame Freddy.. fine... But look at the saves Murray and Helle make to keep their team in the game !! Campbell monster saves when we broke down.

Timely saves are so important to maintaining momentum..no way should this be a 1 goal game. Frustrating that Freddy has a knack for giving up goals at the worst possible times.

 

[Scion]

I dont know why so many people think Andersen has been sharp. The Leafs have given up nothing and he still managed to let one through him. Hellebuyck on the other hand is single handedly keeping his team in the game.

 

[WTFMAN99]

Bad Muzzin giveaway but I do hate the puck going through him again.

 

[hamzarocks]

He ran Andy like an hour ago. I don't like that.

Oh true forgot he was the guy who did that. I wouldn't call that a rat though. A rat is Marchand, an instigator who makes/made(before becoming to good for him to make dumb plays) really questionable plays and had antics designed to piss of other teams stars. M.Tkachuck is a rat, though very skilled.

Connor for the most part is a skilled yet poor defensive winger, who probably doesn't go to run a goalie often

 

[Metroid]

As much as I bitxrd about freddy and that goal...
He can redeem himself by shutting things down in the 3rd.
Non of this early period let in b.s plz

How about that stutzle goal, that seemed like a bad goal, and no one talks about it huh...

 

[Hoverhand]

Despite it being Muzzin's fault, Freddy also should have had it.

Those shots are going to be plentiful in the playoffs and we can talk all offseason about how it wasn't Freddy's fault because we'll be out in round 1.

He's gotta come up with those the majority of the time, hopefully he adapts.

 

[PromisedLand]

How the f*** are people blaming Andersen on that goal?

thats easy to answer

"Do not understand hockey"

Bro can I just hate on the guy? I'll go back to admiring him tomorrow!

 

[Azazel]

This Hockey game brought to you by Shaq!

 

[Gallagbi]

I harp on Andy and you always want a save, but that's blown coverage all day long and a tough save anytime.

Unsure if you can quantify but I would argue an (almost) royal road pass to that location creates a better scoring chance than the average shot from that location.

Oh please. Freddy’s been keeping us in games for years despite our shitty defence.

 

[LeafParade]

What is the record for consecutive faceoff draws won?

 

[frizzer1]

2 consecutive games where they dominate but it’s a one goal game.
They just can’t seem to capitalize on their scoring chances.
