Flyers @ Leafs - Mar. 9th, 7:30pm - SNO, Fan 590

"Dagger to the gut" is presumptuous with this group.

Yup.

 

[Al14]

Too darned passive!

 

[ZBBM]

YESSSSSSSSS

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Now can we celebrate? Great play by Bozak and Kadri.

 

[Al14]

Finally, an empty net goal!

 

[ZBBM]

Ha.  Squashed them like the insignificant Southeastern Pennsylvania bugs that they are.

 

[Highlander]

We Rule Man..sorry Barney!

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Every Leafs defencemen was above 20 minutes tonight... except for Marchenko who played only 11:19. He had just 2 shifts in the 3rd period. That's gotta be it for him, right? Marincin time?

 

[Deebo]

The Flyers GM is Hextall and the coach is Hakstol.

 

[louisstamos]

Flyers 4-2 loss.

Fixed it for you.

The Leafs' Nylander ties the franchise record for power play goals by a rookie with 9.  (Tied with Walt Podubny, Alexander Steen, & Dan Daoust).

 

[Kaberle15]

Nylander looking good. Anderson is our best Goalie in years and years

Since the Eagle...

I can't read Alex Steen as a Leaf and don't have nightmares of that awful trade...

Unprompted allusion to Phaneuf (in the good way?).

That was Babcock answering Shilton's question:

Rielly's obviously a great skater. How much do you think that injury has continued to impact him since he came back?

Mirtle expands on this exchange:

The Leafs have 5 more points and 1 more win than last season with 16 games left on the schedule.

Huh...wouldn't have thought that.

That doesn't make me feel all warm and fuzzy.

 

[herman]

The Flyers probably talk about Tyler Bozak the way we do about Wayne Simmonds.

Gardiner-Marincin at practice this morning.

Uh.... why not?

In retrospect, I read that as at the same games remaining, we're only 5 points ahead.
