Think Markstrom can get a shutout on 3-4 shots?

probably yes, probably no

 

[NjDevsRR]

Also. Pepper some shots on Markstrom in the locker room during intermission please lmao

 

[Hisch13r]

Just keep doing what you are doing and do not take the mindset of this board.

If they think like you guys do we are f***ed

Given their track record of falling apart if they can't score I'd say the reason we think like we do is they are the ones that think like that and play like that.

 

[Zajacs Bowl Cut]

2.28 xG to 0.07 lmao

I mean, they're not the most mentally stable core with the evidence we have. It's ok to admit they played amazingly while also understanding the Leafs are gonna have their pushes within this game + Markstrom has been shaky all year. This idea that people are just bitching to bitch is equally as annoying as you think the opposite is

 

[Alex NJD]

Natural Stat trick 5v5. Dominant

 

[MVP Zacha]

Fantastic period (except that slug Haula). Keep it going and don't change things up just because the Devils haven't scored... yet.

 

[Billdo]

The straw sure does take a lot of penalties.

2.28 xG to 0.07 lmao

So this will inevitably be a 1-0 shutout by them where Stolarz makes 53 saves.

 

[Richer's Ghost]

Keep doing the same thing next period and things will fall into place. Just stay out of the box please.

Thinking every single game is on its way to a L unless we are up 5 is bitching to bitch

if the leafs were 0.08 they would have had more than one shot.....oh!

 

[NjDevsRR]

Small peepee takes

Need large peepee mindset

 

[Whaddagoal]

Ok I'm locked in now. Hopefully they don't play like shit. If they do I will shut it off. Lol

 

[NjDevsRR]

Need a strong second period. Cant get complacent after dominating play. Its still a fresh game

 

[Emperoreddy]

Ok I'm locked in now. Hopefully they don't play like shit. If they do I will shut it off. Lol

We now know who to blame

Toronto will adjust and make a push this period.

Still have a 1:21 of PP would be nice to get a goal

Cant have a poopy PP and give the Leafs confidence/momentum

 

[MVP Zacha]

@Richer's Ghost you asked about some of the BBQ sauces I use on my smoker in the last GDT, but I couldn't reply before it was locked. Here are a few of my faves.

 

[JimEIV]

Kevin Heart Draft King commercials are pissing me off too

 

[ZachaFlockaFlame]

Ok man, saying that the Devils need to take advantage of their scoring chances against a Leafs team that have quick strike talent or their own pushes within games is a hot take on this board. Nowhere have I said they're playing bad.

 

[DrBSmooth]

Been watching the Rutgers game, so look and see the Leafs only have 1 shot? Wow.

 

[JimEIV]

How did the league allow "Utah hockey club"?

By the same logic that they aren't a relocated team but an expansion but there was no expansion draft for them and the team history remains in Arizona. Total batshit stuff.
