Bruins @ Leafs - Dec. 8th, 7:00pm - LeafsTV, TSN 1050

Nice of the team to tease us all with a pretty decent 1st period.

We stink dudes...

Who knew a wrister from the point had that much velocity!

 

[Kin]

Our two best players, ladies and gentlemen!

Bernier and Reimer?

If they could skate into each other, something tells me the fates would find a way.

 

[Jalili]

On one of the failed clearings - I think the one that led to the 2nd goal - the Bruins did a really good job of blocking any avenue of clearing the puck. I'd like to see it again but it didn't look there was much the guy could do.

If you mean the Raymond one then his big mistake was hesitating which gave the Bruins the ability to fill those avenues so, again, he could have made the play.

Fair enough.

I'd have to see it again. It was something I observed right before they scored.

Edit: Even the Bruins depth is lighting up the Leafs.

 

[Kessel Run]

Well that escalated quickly.

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

Who was the dummy that poked the bear??

ouch!

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

How did that not go in? Jeez.

Bruins did their work. They came out in the second and completely dominated. Now they will ice the puck at will and they will play a throat grabbing trap.

No way we muster up even five good shots in the third.

 

[Kin]

On the plus side, they won't be giving up a third period lead tonight.

LOL@Kessel

Iginla left alone in front of the net for a good 3 seconds...he fumbled the puck and didn't get a chance.  Wow. 

 

[mc]

This game needs more Orr.

 

[13th fan]

I forgot about the game tonight. Oh boy, I wish I would've forgotten completely ..Yikes!

 

[Redleaf]

Not that Bernier is to blame for this, but why wouldn't they put Reimer in, just to shake the team up again?

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

Ranger playing a better game, he's skating much better and even a bit faster. I guess he doesn't like sitting upstairs.

Carlyle doesn't shake things up.  He just puts Orr on Kadri's wing.

Back to back?

 

[Kin]

Is there any factual basis for the idea that changing goalies leads to any significant change in play?

 

[TML fan]

This is why I work nights.
