sigh...

maybe other teams should've fought harder for him?

 

[Slurmer]

3 breakaways for jagr???

 

[C Jones]

Gross

 

[Marvie_3]

LOLeafs

 

[Spire]

sigh...

They're just giving him huge breakaways.

 

[Alucard]

Empty netter for the hat-trick for Jagr tonight?

 

[Wendel Clark]

When's Reimer coming back.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Damy you, Jaromir.

Poor Jonas Goalie.

 

[Kave_Man]

When's Reimer coming back.

Really? As if Gustavvson played awful.

 

[BigJonsson]

Bahahah

He said skyRIM this time

 

[Slurmer]

Bahahah

He said skyRIM this time

talBOT

 

[Cactus]

I don't really blame anybody for that goal. Jagr jumped off the bench and immediately skated forward for the pass. The Leafs D had no chance because they were pinching in the offensive zone, trying to tie the game.

 

[Wendel Clark]

Really? As if Gustavvson played awful.

He's our best goalie

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Bahahah

He said skyRIM this time

Don't want ZeniMax/Bethesda to sue.

 

[DopeyFish]

talBOT

omg that's been driving me nuts all game

 

[Epic Tales of Penis]

I know it's early in the season but here is my main concern with the Leafs:

5-1-0 versus teams below .500.

0-1-1 versus teams above .500.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Haven't really noticed Gionta and Pleks tonight.

 

[BigJonsson]

I know it's early in the season but here is my main concern with the Leafs:

5-0-0 versus teams below .500.

0-2-1 versus teams above .500.

Its ok to lose to Boston and Philly............

 

[lupinko]

I know it's early in the season but here is my main concern with the Leafs:

0-2-1 versus teams above .500.

Does this mean then the leafs will beat the rags later this week?

 

[Spire]

Well, the better team won. Leafs looked out of their depth, they would have been shut out if not for some crazy bounces.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Soo...I was only listening to part of the game tonight. How was Connelly?

I just didn't see the Leafs winning this one.

 

[Alucard]

Do the Leafs have much secondary scoring? Seems like Kessel's been doing the bulk of the work.

 

[TheVisualizer]

good shit Flyers, dominated the 2nd and 3rd periods, way to take care of business

 

[Epic Tales of Penis]

Its ok to lose to Boston and Philly............

Ya but if the Leafs are really for "real" then they will have to start beating the good teams.

 

[Slurmer]

I know it's early in the season but here is my main concern with the Leafs:

5-1-0 versus teams below .500.

0-1-1 versus teams above .500.

Reimer can't play them all

 

[BigJonsson]

Ya but if the Leafs are really for "real" then they will have to start beating the good teams.

If they finish in 8th we'll all be ecstatic

 

[DopeyFish]

Grabo line?

The third line is a mess right now though

 

[bonesmccoy]

Its ok to lose to Boston and Philly............

And considering we're using our back-up, who among few other things is known for his sub-0.9 save percentage.

But Phillie is a much, much more complete team than Toronto, even with Carter and Richards gone.

 

[Slurmer]

Well, the better team won. Leafs looked out of their depth, they would have been shut out if not for some crazy bounces.

Leafs lose game
Flyers lose Pronger

so really, Pens win?

 

[Cactus]

Ya but if the Leafs are really for "real" then they will have to start beating the good teams.

Gustavsson let in 10 goals in the the two losses against good teams. I'm not worried until we start losing to these teams with Reimer in net.

 

[Spire]

Habs losing now, excellent.

 

[brucewaynegretzky]

Leafs lose game
Flyers lose Pronger

so really, Pens win?

Yes.

 

[bonesmccoy]

TSN or The Score or somebody kept flashing this stat all morning: When Reimer plays, the Leafs score 3.1 goals per game; when Gustavsson plays, the Leafs score 2.1 goals per game.

Again, poor Jonas.

 

[Spire]

Leafs lose game
Flyers lose Pronger

Pronger will probably be back before we face them and glancing at their schedule, they don't have anything too tough coming up for the next couple weeks so I doubt it'll impact much. I also really don't like seeing players get hurt, especially talented ones.

 

[Red_Man]

Patches not out for the third, to be expected its been a couple games since we had an injury.

 

[DopeyFish]

I'm actually thankful penguins didn't get jagr now... The forward lineup would be ridiculous when healthy

And having Crosby, malkin and jagr on the power play? You'd never get the puck D:

 

[Slurmer]

Hartnell-Giroux-Jagr

keep that line together for a while please

 

[Epic Tales of Penis]

Again, poor Jonas.

That might be that the team has less faith in
the Monster and play a more conservative game while taking less chances.

 

[bonesmccoy]

That might be that the team has less faith in

Most likely, and I'd say it's behaviour that's been drilled into them. Those 2 BR seasons would drive fear into the hearts of the stoutest men.

 

[Kave_Man]

That might be that the team has less faith in

Exactly what I'm thinking cap'n.

I think Gus has to earn back their trust before anything will change in that regard. He'll need like a ton of solid games in a row to do that or have a few where he stands on his head.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

God dammit Gustavsson, it looked like he dove there.

Well he is Swedish

 

[t0mp]

Hartnell-Giroux-Jagr

keep that line together for a while please

i was completely against that line but today it clicked. looked excellent

 

[bonesmccoy]

So Erik Cole scored!

4 years justified, and how. Now all that's left is Markov to return for a solid 10 game spell between injuries, and we might as well hand Gauthier the keys to 24 Sussex.

 

[Ether_Snake]

Didn't really score. More like the puck touched him on the way out of pity.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Erik Cole scored!

4 years justified, and how.

He has actually playing pretty good tonight, jokes aside.

 

[Zod the Bear]

i was completely against that line but today it clicked. looked excellent

Ditto. I really wanted Read or Simmonds in there, but Hartnell brought it today. Hopefully they keep clicking.

 

[Simon Belmont]

Well that was a heartbreaking game. I don't know what it is, but Philly just has our number.

Hope Pronger is OK, hate to see anybody go out like that.

 

[Alucard]

"...and the crowd really booing the Canadiens now."

Habs have looked alright this game. Fans expect too much.

 

[Ether_Snake]

I didn't hear any booing.

I knew we couldn't score against Markstrom. It's like against Miller. It won't go in.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

They have played alright. Markstrom has played great and they got some fortunate goals.

Also, there have been boo's for sure.
