Blues @ Leafs - Mar. 25th, 7:00pm - SN, TSN 1050

How's that for a groin test?

 

[dappleganger]

Give Backes 2 minutes for that.

 

[ZBBM]

3x there Lupul doesn't get it out.  This is going to be a loooong nite.

 

[bustaheims]

How's that for a groin test?

If the Leafs keep playing this way, Bernier won't make it out of the period healthy.

 

[bustaheims]

Ah, but had it played out the way I planned we would have a Cup by now.

Sure, but, I could say the same thing.

 

[lamajama]

This is starting pretty lopsided.

Why should tonight be different from any other night?

Promised Luke is just what this team needed, and needs.  Unfortunately Delivered Luke didn't measure up.

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

yay! Thanks to digital tv, I can watch my Colts play the Sudbury Wolves in game three of their playoff series instead........

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Carlyle's actually rolling 4 lines pretty well so far tonight. Orr still doesn't have a shift though of course.

Yes, but, unfortunately, it's Delivered Lukes that exists around the league. The guys who have the defensive acumen you're looking for also have a strong offensive acumen and are generally considered among the best in the game. They're not available.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

God damnit Clarkson can't even dump the puck past a defender.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

An Orr sighting! He hit the glass that was beside a Blues defenceman.

 

[bustaheims]

God damnit Clarkson can't even dump the puck past a defender.

Never mind the defender. He was stopped by the paint under the ice.

 

[harps64]

The Leafs haven't been dominated like this since Sunday.

Not a single valuable defensive defenseman in the whole league?

 

[bustaheims]

Not a single valuable defensive defenseman in the whole league?

Not one I'd trade Gardiner for, no.

 

[ZBBM]

I wonder if other "homer" broadcast teams like to rub salt in the wounds of the home team the way these guys do?  That pack of Steen was brutal.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Oh my...

 

[ZBBM]

Unbelievable.  Way to play it Cappy.
