Bruins @ Leafs - Jan. 12th, 7:00pm - CBC, TSN 1050

[ZBBM]

Zaitsev and Dermott are not having a good night.

 

[lc9]

Typical leafs.  Find a way to lose to Boston. 

 

[freer]

All I want is to see someone to knock someone over. This is still a contact sport

 

[Bender]

He makes it harder for the leafs to be successful. He has to go.

Ya, that's just not true.

I'd much sooner target Zaitsev and his $4m+ hit

 

[Zee]

I don?t care what anyone thinks I can?t wait til Gardiner is gone
Awful

He makes it harder for the leafs to be successful. He has to go.

He's literally the 2nd best option on D and you want to get rid of him. Sure he makes mistakes like every guy out there but he also drives offense like other Leafs D not named Rielly don't.

We still have the third to play.

 

[ZBBM]

You can parse things all you want but the Bruins are made to exploit defensive weaknesses and we've got too many of them.

 

[Highlander]

Sparks would have had that, it sucked but so did the Leafs last minute play.  Ok about the D, I am waiting for Sandin (maybe next season), Rosen (available right now), Durzi who seems to be a Psycho Killer and either of the remaining twin towers to join this team over the next one to three years. Keep drafting D Leafs, you have the forwards at least until the 20 draft.

I simply disagree.  I hope they move him or let him walk. 

 

[freer]

There is plenty of kids on the Marlies that can fill in

 

[herman]

I think we are playing well, getting confirmation that when we play right we can bury teams. We are also getting the lesson that when we take our foot off the gas even slightly against good teams, we can get burned.

You can disagree all you want the stats don't back you up in any way.

Pasternak will find a way to pump them in the third

True, but do they really still need to learn that lesson?

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Imagine anybody believing Bettman's "I'm not looking for a fight" comment about the CBA? How stupid are these people?

If you?ve ever had to teach teenagers and young adults before, then you know it?s a lot of repetition and learning by doing and each person is going to turn that corner at a different rate.

That's the spirit! [emoji41]

I almost think it wasn't so much letting their foot of the gas as it was a brain cramp that led to a goal.

This would be 3-0 if Andersen was playing.

These guys got booted each of the last 2 years by this team and they don't get that yet.  OK.
