Only medals.

Sorry to dissapoint, I am sure your use to it by now.

LOL Leafs.

Nuke town moshpit and you can still get tons of experience.

[Smiley90]

I gotta admit, that's a pretty amazing 3rd period collapse by the leafs. To be fair, by shots, they never should've had a lead, but still lol-worthy


Edit: holy lmao at the florida score. Wtf happened there?

 

[bonesmccoy]

Last year we played exciting, shit hockey; this year we play boring, shit hockey. At least Reimer didn't let in any softies.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Yup

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Cherry jinxed the Leafs at the first intermission.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Get all those goals out of your system tonight Philly. Tomorrow they're going to be heading in the other way.

 

[Future Foundation]

D'awww @ that little girl in the Gaborik jersey.

 

[FortunateSon]

wow cbc is talking about how pumped MSG is

it's deader than a leafs tuesday game

The crowd was definitely lousy and quiet but they did get into it at a certain points during the game but at least they have a team worth cheering for. What about the leafs?

 

[Anth0ny]

leafs fucking suck

wow

 

[Red_Man]

You gotta hand it to the Leafs, no one gives up a lead like they do. Good stuff.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Lol Read 100% for shots tonight.

 

[Smiley90]

Looks like LA is gonna get their first win... Oh well.

Wtf happened in Florida?!?

 

[Delryk]

Leafs started sucking when when Lupul left last year. And now its happening again.

 

[DopeyFish]

That win put the rangers into a tie with the leafs

Just saying

Edit: NEVERMIND forgot the loser points

 

[FortunateSon]

Last year we played exciting, shit hockey; this year we play boring, shit hockey. At least Reimer didn't let in any softies.

That's a pretty good summary. When will the leafs team actually be able to compete? At least Ron Wilson gave us exciting hockey. This year, the team will be garbage + we play boring hockey.

That win put the rangers into a tie with the leafs

Just saying

Hopefully, we keep winning huh? I somehow doubt that. We gave a 2-0 lead away. Allowed 30+ shots under a defensive system. I don't understand what the team has to do.

 

[Freyjadour]

Detroit better show the fuck up tomorrow night.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Looks like LA is gonna get their first win... Oh well.

No first line, full collapse, goaltending was a gong show. More or less everything.

 

[yodathesoda]

I don't ask for much but how about we beat the Oilers, get a couple goals for Iggy and Baertschi and have a good showing by Cervenka. K.

 

[Acid08]

Hewberdough isn't playing all the positions? What a shitty rookie.

 

[Smiley90]

No first line, full collapse, goaltending was a gong show. More or less everything.

Oh right, forgot your whole first line was out, ouch. We only have our second line out and that already sucks :/

 

[cube444]

Leafs have sucked for ages now man.

 

[Red_Man]

I prefer Whobereau.

 

[MetatronM]

By FAR our best period of the season. Rangers seem to have finally learned the value of getting to the net. Top line (including MDZ and Staal) finally looking like it. Big win.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Oh right, forgot your whole first line was out, ouch. We only have our second line out and that already sucks :/

The only bright spot is the Huberdeau-Shore-Mueller line is great. Absolute clunker of a game.

Leafs fell asleep- don't think too highly of it.

They did absolutely nothing but float their way to failure

 

[Curufinwe]

Bryz padding his stats and Giroux getting a nice rest in the 3rd.

 

[Cagey]

The Rangers are an imitation of the 2003-2004 Lightning, but with 100% more "buy the top line".

Nauseating shit.

 

[Pochacco]

It's nice that they kicked Kevin Weekes out of the commentators booth for the 2nd game, but why did he have to land on this already-god-awful panel with Glenn Healy and PJ Stock? It's PAINFUL to watch.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Detroit better show the fuck up tomorrow night.

They're sending in their best pylons. No need to worry.

 

[Delryk]

Leafs have sucked for ages now man.

The point im getting at is Lupul is a big part of the team. Atleast he gives the team a chance to win. The team looks flat without him.

 

[bonesmccoy]

I've never been sold on Carlyle, but tonight especially. I'm just not really sure what he was thinking playing Dion Phaneuf and MIKE KOSTKA for 30+ minutes. Why does he think this guy, who spent the last several years floating around the AHL, is suddenly a top-2 guy who can play half the game? Sure, our depth at D isn't good at all, but Mike Kostka! 30 minutes!

Delryk, agree re Lupul.

 

[zedge]

Here we go!

Best jerseys too!

 

[Red_Man]

Your team is in trouble is Kostka is playing 32 minutes in a game

 

[twinturbo2]

Is it time for Panthers-GAF to panic yet?

 

[ZeroGravity]

How so?

The Rangers are a much more play-it-safe, defense-first team. The Lightning in 2004 were about all out offense and risk taking. "Safe is death" was the team's motto.

 

[JABEE]

Luke Schenn was awesome tonight.

 

[SpectreFire]

Someone should tell Cherry that Christmas happened a month ago.

 

[Vilam]

Is it time for Panthers-GAF to panic yet?

Eh... not panicking, just unhappy. This isn't fun hockey to watch.

 

[FortunateSon]

I honestly don't see it either. If you ask any reasonable leaf fans, if there are any in this thread. I don't understand the minutes he's getting from Carlye. His defensive play isn't deserving of those minutes. He even sucks on the powerplay.

We are giving this guy 30+ MINUTES. WTF CARLYLE?

Edit: Give us PK Subban man!

 

[zedge]

Heather is hot.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Where to start? Terrible game all around. Theo and Clemmer equally as leaky. No 1st line is murder, Flash-Weis-Steeg worked so well due to chemistry, not in individual merit so not having all 3 is like having none at all. Weaver has been uncharacteristically bad at D. Parros is busy trying to be a hockey player.

2 good things were Kovalev actually had a strong game and Hubby-Shore-Mueller as a line.

I hope this is rock bottom. I don't know how much worse this can get.

Not sold on RC either and his matching lines to the letter... Tort played his first line for 26-28 mins.. And if he does that every night they wont be effective for long.. lol

Someone tell both coaches that this is a shortened 3-5 games a week season. Lol

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Wait to get healthy first. Next week we should be in a much better place roster wise.

 

[Ether_Snake]

Damn Dallas' goalie is huge.

 

[FortunateSon]

Reminds of the days when Ottawa had no secondary scoring. It was only their first line doing all the work. Heatley, Spezza and Alfredsson. Everyone hated playing against that line, especially the leafs because they would murder us and our goalies.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

They're sending in their best pylons. No need to worry.

No, just one pylon in Quincey, though most of our players may miss the game because it will be arts and crafts time at the senior center from when the game starts.

Carlyle will be gone after this season and replaced by Eakins.

 

[Delryk]

Hopefully leafs can take this FIRST 2 DAY BREAK of the season and learn how to play hockey.
