Matthews moves up to 7th in league scoring.

Guys, I keep telling you. Best team in the NHL. Shit, I feel like Zeke 2.0 these days.

 

[aniablue]

Team is so good, its a joke.

When have you ever heard me say that? Team has been Schenn for years. But now? Its hot hot hot.

 

[Feyd]

They barely squeaked out a win against one of the worst teams in the league.

 

[Preston]

At least Campbell looks good while being a sieve. He gets stylistic points for me.

Shades of the Ottawa game really.

101 point pace

Also, I can't stand watching Barrie. One of the highlights of this summer will be when he walks.

The Leafs were sloppy in the 3rd...but we gave up 3...3 high danger chances all game 5 on 5 and 6 in total. Bunch of shitty turnovers, but most of them didn't turn into anything resembling a chance. You need your goalies to make stops. Campbell kind of didn't do that tonight.

4 or less

Justin Holl, bottom pair dman...yes

Justin Holl, big minute defenceman....not so much.

yeah unfortunately it was more of the same from the backup position tonight.

bottom line an .867 isn't getting it done.

not to mention Terry beat him clean and rang it off the bar early. It was almost 2 goals on his first 3 shots faced.

That's a bit harsh. As a 2nd pairing RHD, I've got no qualms with him. He's been way better than just a bottom pairing defender this year.

Eakins bitching to the media about the hit by Muzzin on Kase.

I know we don't see a lot of big hits on this team anymore... but looked fine to me?

Was clean

 

[zeke]

Wanted to see lilly in OT.

 

[JackBurton]

I took a shot everytime someone said "Sandpaper" about Clifford and I'm fucking blitzed.

 

[Volcanologist]

It was 100% clean.

pretty funny to hear somebody complaining about a hit a Leaf player laid out.

remember back in 02-04, when we were "the dirtiest team in the league"?

Jack Campbell on #Leafs offensive stars: “That was one area my game I didn't like, I got caught watching the guys making plays. I was just in awe. It’s incredible, so I'm just glad I'm in the blue and white right now.”

yeah, it'll have to be another own rental again I suppose given the circumstances...but he'd get you some value in a deal. Think the injuries have probably killed any possibility of moving him, if ever there was any.
