GDT - Leafs @ Caps, HNIC, Nov 25

yeah i'm not mad either....but it's not like ovy sniped a corner there.

It was pretty close to being post and in. I'm not saying it was unstoppable, but it was a well placed shot by maybe the best pure goal scorer in NHL history.
 
After seeing the replay....McBackup needs to stop that one. Nothing should go between the upper arm and the body.

I hate hughson and Simpson but they are right about rolling pucks. They're basically guessing games. I agree that Magilney needs to stay tighter and close the holes though. A decent-good goalie should have that.
 
Hockey is the most luck-based sport by a lot. Teams win when they shouldn't far more than people realize. Sure, over the course of 82 games it usually balances out decently enough but game to game? Meh. Leafs fans seem to be down on the team when they win games despite getting outplayed and when they lose despite outplaying the other team. That's kinda why I think some are pretty down on the team right now. Meh it is what it is. I get it. Sports are about results.

Yeah, a rolling puck is a pure guessing game for a goalie...which makes just cutting down the angle and not letting anything through you all the more important. If a rolling puck goes post and in or top corner over the shoulders, fair play.

Exactly. And leafs fans are upset because they've been outplayed in some of those games. They're also down on the team when they lose games they deserve to win. There's no winning with people like leafsfan2005 or whatever his name is
 
hey babcock maybe try playing the matthews line more than the 4th line.

just a thought.
 
are you blaming Zaitsev for jake's awful dump in folllwed by jake's awful pinch?
