[zeke]

on another note, Lorentz seems to have used up all his gritty energy in the first 2gms. he's been awol since.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

What the hell kind of entry attempt was that by Willy?

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Ah the PP, where we forget how to pass and shoot for 2 minutes. So fun.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Our movement on the PP is trash compared to what we saw TB and NYR just do.

nicky

 

[zeke]

phew good thing reaves dressed. well worth it now.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Played like the worst team in the league tonight. Looks more like vying for the first overall pick than the president's trophy.

Humiliation.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

These shots on the PP are hilarious.

At least one good thing coming clearer tonight for me. Knies is definitely gonna be a star.

 

[Slinger 48]

Lol... Fucking Leafs, it never changes.


Hildetoast?

 

[MindzEye]

Team didn't show up in front of the kid during his 2nd career start. Would be nice if he had stopped the 3rd one definitely. A 2 on 1 hold and shoot from ZAR is something a big goalie like him should be swallowing up most of the time. Tough to hang too much on him for the first two. Looked shaky at times though for sure. The 4th was a chunky rebound that he can't be giving up but then the 5th is about as high danger as a chance gets. The 6th is a nice to have, but letting NHL shooters come into the high slot like that with tons of time to pick their spot is just brutal D.
The team was disgustingly bad defensively in front of him. Tough to blame much on a kid in his 2nd career start when you allow those types of chances right out of the gate though.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Sure, but he also looked terrible. Rebounds, lack of awareness, slow to react. Not impressed by what I saw tonight.

After opening up the season as the best team in the league by xG for 3 games, they have to be one of the worst over the last 4.

I thought he did get better when it was too late.

Not really down on him, Hildetoast came to mind in the first period. I thought it was funny and wanted to inject a small amount of humour, (very small some might say), into the conversation. Probably would have fit better then but I don't post during games.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Dare I say...Hildebust?

I didn't want to put that out there but tonight was bad.

 

[Wayward DP]

So in our first seven games we have lost to Montreal and Columbus

Seems like same old Leafs

 

[zeke]

Except with shittier nerdies.

 

[Wayward DP]

Except with shittier nerdies.

[zeke]
