GDT #34: 24/12/21 - Lobster Trap

[LeafOfFaith]

Defensive dunces and Woll is fucking atrocious so far.

 

[GeneralT001]

Haven't lost hope yet,,,,but pretty close. Why such terrible first periods??

 

[LeafOfFaith]

We're going to come back for sure, but this sort of implosion is frustrating to watch.

Easily Woll's worst game though. One more and he's gone. He has to hold the fort now.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Fucking Reaves has lost the puck on four separate occasions on this one shift!

 

[MindzEye]

Yeah, I'm starting to think that he's not a very good hockey player.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

I feel like we've been patient enough. He's never going to fulfill his potential. Tough to bail on him so young, but I'm ready.

 

[GeneralT001]

Man, if you could bottle the Leafs first periods you'd have a cure all for insomnia

[fergy57]

Reavo needs an amulet.

Funny how that works.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

I can't watch this Reaves shit. How can they do this to us?

 

[soco22]

Can't wait for the CBC to get defunded and that back stabbing wart McClean out of a job. Thats my New Years wish.

This is Sportsnet- not cbc running the show

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Kampfews.

 

[soco22]

Feels like we went back in time to our offense being generated by leaking out and off the rush vs control time in offensive zone —- the good old Phil Kessel days.

Just this team has a lot more offensive potential to not have to do that - but with elite goaltending thus far to offset the special teams battle we usually lose come postseason

 

[CRL]

I guess no PP today since we are 90% without cock

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Every 3omi shift has us hemmed in our zone at some point during it.

They got their stick in the face of Robbie a few minutes ago and nothing. A hook/slash on Willy earlier and nothing. We're fucking invisible.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

holy fuck, reaves, holy fuck.

 

[mbow30]

Refs letting the isles get away with a lot in this one. And first call will def go against the leafs.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Pressing in the offensive zone and "Ryan Reaves checks in" and we immediately lose it. Holy fuck.
