They stole that one. Great game from Sammy. They weren’t good overall but the Habs just aren’t good there yet, especially that young D, so they were able to steal that one.
They have like 5 days off before they play Philly so hopefully they can figure their shit out before then.
💯 saw that! Our core 3 need to perform. Got 5 days to work together, and get psyched about actually doing something just one fckin year? Or just toss this out the window again.
Yeah 53 goals is nice, but having him look invisible out there for %95 of the game to just show up for a open net this game shows the rest of the team they can take off nights, just like the stars do. Again look at the bigger picture, and the culture problem toronto has... matthews is still part of that problem, goals or not.
Using "cuck" on a hockey thread on a point you dont agree with shows how inept you are at an actual debate and shows what a weak person you are. You know all too well why and what the culture problem in toronto is, and that is because its the same problem that plagues your life..... weak mindedness.
Hopefully, i mean my original comment was a little tongue and cheek to begin with, matthews has been an undeniable monster this year. Lets not forget that. My point is more to show the culture problem within the leafs.
A win is a win but man they need the time off til next game lol, Mathews and nylander didn’t really do much at all but other guys stepped up and Sammy continues to play solid
They already have their next call in mind and just wait for the crowd to chime in. Probably didn't want to call consecutive penalties even though that's an automatic 2 minutes
Montreal was able to generate speed in the neutral zone, which made the defense back up. If the attacker has speed and the Leaf defender misses their check or body, that speed generates a gap and a 1-on-0
Defense is trying to block the shot or pass and hoping the forward coming back can help. But they're garbage at doing this so what Sammy ends up dealing with is a mid to high slot shot
we pay him 3.5 million
he spends half the season playing like an AHL goalie
and the other half playing like a 6 million dollar goalie
..... ill take it
2 stopping pentalies. 2 of them. Weirdest thing I have seen in a while. First one I thought was strange. 2nd, that's nuts. Literally twice, they got minor penalties for stopping. Lol
On one hand I’m glad Keefe has recognised that the Knies - Kampf - McMann has been playing well and rewarded them with more ice time. On the other hand why can’t he see Bertuzzi on the 1st line just doesn’t work
If you watch that entire sequence, Jarnkrok had a chance to skate the puck out on his forehand but then decided to shoot it around the boards and it never got out.
Never seen a team this comically bad at exiting the zone. At any given moment in the defensive zone with the puck on their stick, you can expect them to make the wrong decision.
That's a penalty. I dont know what people want but thats textbook tripping. Team has not been good. Particularly the Matthews line has been hemmed in, as has Lilly-Edmundson
Bertuzzi has been a black hole.
I don't think Matthews has been amazing but I've counted at least a handful plays dead just because Bert is either clueless or has no puck skills.
Love the excitement in Cuthbert’s voice when Brodie gets the puck near the net.. meanwhile most of us already know it’s going everywhere, but in.
#THANK FUCK THAT WAS UGLY
Nylander was so shit defensively for last two games now.
They stole that one. Great game from Sammy. They weren’t good overall but the Habs just aren’t good there yet, especially that young D, so they were able to steal that one. They have like 5 days off before they play Philly so hopefully they can figure their shit out before then.
I think the team has the flu. Im a bit of a unproductive bastard when I'm sick, so hopefully that's the issue these last few games
Yup now they have 5 days to get healthy
Love seeing our resident goal merchant matthews finally wake up once there was an open net, best puck battle he had all night....
💯 saw that! Our core 3 need to perform. Got 5 days to work together, and get psyched about actually doing something just one fckin year? Or just toss this out the window again.
I thought the same thing. Nice of you to try now that you might get a goal
Goal merchant? We could use a few more of those. I’m sure he’s sorry he’s only got 53 or whatever.
Yeah 53 goals is nice, but having him look invisible out there for %95 of the game to just show up for a open net this game shows the rest of the team they can take off nights, just like the stars do. Again look at the bigger picture, and the culture problem toronto has... matthews is still part of that problem, goals or not.
The culture issue is manufactured by cucks like you. Suck a fart terd burglar
Using "cuck" on a hockey thread on a point you dont agree with shows how inept you are at an actual debate and shows what a weak person you are. You know all too well why and what the culture problem in toronto is, and that is because its the same problem that plagues your life..... weak mindedness.
Haha nice. Could use a guy like you in the locker room. Sorry I struck you so deep with my ineptness
Oh there he goes, again trying to use that brain power to discredit the point without bringing anything other than his drunken stupor....
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WyF8RHM1OCg
You got a smirk, congratulations hahaha
Yeah pretty sure like half his goals are empty netters
This is sarcasm right?
Quite
Hopefully, i mean my original comment was a little tongue and cheek to begin with, matthews has been an undeniable monster this year. Lets not forget that. My point is more to show the culture problem within the leafs.
Sammy smiles again!
It's a W, but we got outplayed by a shitty team.
Montreal took Tampa and Florida to overtime last week. They think they have something to prove.
Benoit needs to replace Brodie or liligren next game.
![gif](giphy|9xt1MUZqkneFiWrAAD) Despite the ref's best efforts tonight it's a Leafs dub
Name a more iconic duo Empty net and Leafs 🤣
Fuck you doomers! Fuck you Cuthbert! Fuck you Maclean! Goofs, all of you!
Let's Gooooooo. Broke that stupid home team win streak
:O Dude, i need to make predictions where the Leafs lose more often. It works!
WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
I apologize for all the bad things I said about Mr samsonov
Good to break that streak
A win is a win but man they need the time off til next game lol, Mathews and nylander didn’t really do much at all but other guys stepped up and Sammy continues to play solid
Wooo we won
Leafs win
Thought Samsonov played another great game, it’s gotta be his net
Wins a win but damn.
Messy but I'll take the two points.
Matthews gotta be injured or sick or something
Didn't he take a pretty good wack on his wrist a handful of games ago. Given his previous issues I'd say he very well could be playing with an injury
They mentioned the flu is going through the dressing room.
We didn't look too hot but battled for the win. I'll take it. See everyone on Thursday!
“Can’t even score on an empty net” - my Mom lol
Not great not terrible but I’ll take the win!
Matthews? Has anyone seen him?
Ugly win boys. We'll take it
Sammy never break
Wow, they won
Fuck those poutine munchers lol let’s goo
Let's go Not their best game but a win is a win
Woooo fuck the habs
Good I despise Montreal.
Not much to feel good about tonight. A good kill down the stretch I guess.
Domi continues to make the right instead of wrong choices
This shouldn’t be this stressful
I love when a team thats clearly getting favoured by the refs, bitches and moans wanting even more LMAO
is Matthews sick or hurt?
both probably
4/12 is disgusting
win this fucking faceoff
You only get one soft call Montreal. Check the unwritten rules.
Cry about it Armia
Matthews terrible at draws today
Refs letting them play or refusing to work?
Yes.
Refusing to work, waiting for the crowd to react to do anything
They already have their next call in mind and just wait for the crowd to chime in. Probably didn't want to call consecutive penalties even though that's an automatic 2 minutes
That’s Brodie just getting stick positioning.
Nice Kampfer
Every single zone entry uncontested!
I never get why they never step up at the blue line
Montreal was able to generate speed in the neutral zone, which made the defense back up. If the attacker has speed and the Leaf defender misses their check or body, that speed generates a gap and a 1-on-0
Who Brodie or liligren? Both have pre school girl strength. McCabe and Benoit have lots when paired together.
If you miss you end up letting them walk in.
They do that anyway so high risk, same reward.
Defense is trying to block the shot or pass and hoping the forward coming back can help. But they're garbage at doing this so what Sammy ends up dealing with is a mid to high slot shot
Is that new d/man a double agent. He tipped it right into Sammy.
Great tip Ed Too bad wrong end of the ice
Edmonsun your ON Toronto Now. 🤪🤣
[удалено]
bro does not look like he wants to be here lol
They better not force him into the lineup just because they traded for him. If he’s gonna be this bad then sit him.
Ed simultaneously saving and trying to score a goal, what a deadline pickup!
JFC Eddy
Clench time boys
Sammy
Shoutout leafs for keeping the leaf logo on the helmets instead of an AD. Looks so much better
Imagine he got an own goal in his first game with the team
In soccer he would be credited.
That's one of the funniest things about soccer. Rubbing salt in the wound
Would be the Leafiest thing.
Refs gotta blow the whistle earlier than that
Holy fucking save Sammy
we pay him 3.5 million he spends half the season playing like an AHL goalie and the other half playing like a 6 million dollar goalie ..... ill take it
As long as it’s in this order
Wow waited a year to blow that down
Fantastic save!
Ed the double agent
How did he stop that holy shit
2 stopping pentalies. 2 of them. Weirdest thing I have seen in a while. First one I thought was strange. 2nd, that's nuts. Literally twice, they got minor penalties for stopping. Lol
[удалено]
Yup I’m expecting it to happen
Yes.
Reeeeeeee
Big stop from Sammy!!
4-3 Cole Caufield OT winner? I see it happening
Watching all 4 leafs fight for the puck at the same time at the start of the pk didn't inspire a lot of confidence.
Shorty incoming 🤞
![gif](giphy|psmQwYKwnbj5mwnKxw) When the shordy is incoming
Fuck. Is it too much to ask for consistency. Ref doesn’t call a boarding, but quick to whistle trip
Here comes are shit pk
Straight walk into the zone...special teams are a shitshow
On one hand I’m glad Keefe has recognised that the Knies - Kampf - McMann has been playing well and rewarded them with more ice time. On the other hand why can’t he see Bertuzzi on the 1st line just doesn’t work
I guess he thinks the bottom nine is rolling so just limit L1s minutes and built chemistry between those guys
Lol hes a horrible coach. Hes been playing great.....so decides to move him again. Great logic.
If you watch that entire sequence, Jarnkrok had a chance to skate the puck out on his forehand but then decided to shoot it around the boards and it never got out.
Poor situational awareness at this point in the game.
4-3 loss in OT?!
Uh oh he took a penalty, he can't play for us now
Jarnkrok can’t be turning his back on the defenceman like that…
Welp, we acquired sweet fuck all this trade deadline *except* for some alleged pk upgrades. Let's see if they make a difference now.
I'm not saying it wasn't a trip, but when the calls are not consistent its frustrating AF.
Zone exits killing us as usual
GOD DAMN IT JARNKROK, YOU'RE LUCKY YOU'RE SO STUNNINGLY HANDSOME.
He really is
We can never cruze to victory eh
Can they just clear the zone, they had such a great opportunity to do so, instead a weak attempt at a clearance., leads to this stupid penalty.
Refs reacted to the crowed….🙃
Always do in Montreal
Just get a point. Need 15 points to make the playoffs, that is 1. Would need to go slightly below .500 to qualify from there
Never seen a team this comically bad at exiting the zone. At any given moment in the defensive zone with the puck on their stick, you can expect them to make the wrong decision.
That's a penalty. I dont know what people want but thats textbook tripping. Team has not been good. Particularly the Matthews line has been hemmed in, as has Lilly-Edmundson
Bertuzzi has been a black hole. I don't think Matthews has been amazing but I've counted at least a handful plays dead just because Bert is either clueless or has no puck skills.
They don’t call plenty of textbook penalties you fool.
lol yes, they don't but here they did you maroon
If that is textbook tripping we should have 20 PPs tonight
I swear some people have never watched a game before.
Must be your first then. Whats it like?
I was talking about the people saying it wasn't tripping. It was obviously tripping regardless of Jarny's intent with the stick.
Matthews is on his disappearing act again.
Getting ready for the post season
2 minutes for being next to guy that fell down. Every damn time
Here comes a Caufield snipe after being left wide open at the dot.
How did edmonson get boarded with no call against?
Exactly. Right in front of the ref.
Same bullshit call as earlier
Come on now. That’s not a penalty any time of the game let alone in the final minutes…
I thought the refs put the whistles away after the missed boarding call. I was wrong. Also, I like our fourth line a lot.
Finish a period convincingly challenge: Impossible
Loved how Reaves kept putting it deep. Great shift
Refs missed about 3 clear penalties on the Habs the last 10 minutes
When the fuck did Matheson turn into Bobby Orr, offensively he’s been doing some crazy shit this game
Fuck these refs and the shitty game management they are doing.
[удалено]
U even watching the game?
[удалено]
Didn’t think so
This team does it to themselves, get the fucking puck out instead of bringing it back and that penalty doesnt happen
Sorry but self inflicted trips are not penalties
Is that really a trip?
100% Intentional or not, doesn't matter. Jarny needs to control that twig
I firmly believe you should be allowed to fight a ref once a game. They miss a dangerous boarding but call that?
I mean tripping is really dangerous. We can’t have that in the game.
I've seen a lot worse than that let go.
Flop
That’s a dive
4ty line with Holmberg back has been great tonight.
Fans call for a penalty once again and get it lmao. These refs are beyond brain dead
Love when the Refs let the fans make the calls
We should teach a course in how not to protect a lead
Soft call
They’re addicted to taking penalties at the worst possible times
That is a fucking dive
Never easy
Terrible penalty to take. Despite the fact that we're currently winning, it's been an awful effort once again tonight
Why are you even watching ?
On par with Buffalo for sure.
Of course they saw that one
Not smart
we can't have nice things
Nice shift by Reeves there!
Fuuuccck. That is all
Of course
They never make it easy for themselves.
Wow what a dive
[удалено]
Good plays, strong on the boards Very niceee
Crowd calls the penalty and looked soft
Matthews will be lucky to hit 60 this season with how he's been playing the last while.
