So when Varlamov goes back to sucking I'm just gonna need someone to score 10 on him and we'll at least get one win out of it.
If we play the Leafs, that is.

Nathan "He's No Marner" MacKinnon, everyone.
It's the same phenomenon that we saw with Cam Talbot. The team, and particularly the defense, just plays way better when someone not named Henrik Lundqvist is in net. In the last 3 games, Raanta has faced 18, 26, and 19 shots respectively. In Hank's last 3, he faced 31, 28, and 32. It's like they need to lose their safety net in order to be motivated to do their damn jobs properly.
Anyway, I think you have to put Hank in on Tuesday at this point. Raanta just had 3 games in 4 nights, which is a lot for anybody, let alone a guy who doesn't start much to begin with. He needs a rest, and Hank needs back in. You'll need Raanta for at least one of the two road games later this week anyway since there's another back to back coming next weekend, including a rematch with these Devils.

I mean, all of the Leaf players just kind of stood there.
congrats, your 4th year 1st overall pick scored a goal on a goalie playing his first game to bring himself into a tie with mitch marner, a 1st year 4th overall pick.
:lol

It's like you can predict the future or something!
Congrats on mackinnon skating through our teams defense on a power play
Henrik Lundqvist for Mitch Marner. Leafs could use a goalie, right?

Dopey doesn't get salty. Dopey only gets right.
Congrats on the fantastic game tonight Dopey. At least the Leafs can win the stats war.

Jeffler tweeted that the Leafs had 41 scoring chances in this game -- this is the most any team has ever had since scoring chance data is available (2007).
second most is the Rangers with 37 on March 24, 2010.
second most for the Leafs specifically is 27 on November 5, 2016
I'm not sure if this word salad is directed at me or not. Mainly because it didn't apply to anything that was said.

I know this sounds crazy... super crazy and hypothetical, but could New York send Hank to Vegas instead of Raanta?

So much for tying the game Edmonton.
Hank's no move means he must be protected.

Seems like all you're missing now is a first round loss.
Seems strange to compare this season to an era that didn't have 3vs3 or SOs!

Love me some useless rangers stats
I haven't gotten to throw out enough of them this season.
Only one of our wins came in 3v3, and 0 in shootouts. ¯\_(ツ
