Game 45: Ottawa Senators vs Toronto Maple Leafs 7:00 SNET-O

[Zee]

Love how the Sens continue to be a dirty team regardless of the era

Wow, you don't see many clipping calls.  Pretty sure that's the first one in a Leaf game this year.

Because very few players still do it.

Yeah, it's one of those things that's hard to disguise as a legitimate play, and is the type of thing that comes with a high risk of resulting in a suspension.

How is it not a glove pass when Konopka blatantly throws the puck back to his teammate in the corner?

 

[L K]

Anderson is certainly on his game for a guy who has given up 2 goals so far.  Some huge saves in the second period.

 

[ZBBM]

This has to be the greatest shot differential in our favor this season.

 

[Derk]

Argh, why does Anderson have to be playing so well??

Leafs need to put a couple more in before their giveaways start to hurt them.

Smells like a loss.

Defensive zone, glove passes are allowed.

 

[Arn]

If we don't score soon this is going to be one of those ugly games where they score late to tie it up

 

[Sucker Punch]

Does Bowen always have his head up his ass like this?

Spezza is not the captain, and he wears #19.  Zack Smith is the guy wearing #15.

 

[Coderaspberry]

Anyone who comments/freaks out when the Leafs have something like 8 shots at this point in a game, I expect you to comment/freak in because the shots are 23-8 Leafs.

How DOES one freak in?

Yes.

 

[ZBBM]

This has to be the greatest shot differential in our favor this season.

Smells like a loss.

"The Leafs dominated for the most of the game, but couldn't put the visitors away.  And then, with 1 minute left...."

How is it not a glove pass when Konopka blatantly throws the puck back to his teammate in the corner?

It's in the defensive zone. Glove pass doesn't exist in your own end.

 

[Sucker Punch]

Way to go, Nicky.  Slap around that chump.

 

[L K]

Forgot about that.  Thanks.

Foligno vs. Phaneuf.  This I like to see.  Phaneuf gets hit by Foligno with an illegal hit and the two guys involved fight.  I can live with that.  I don't need to watch Colton Orr fight Konopka in retaliation for the hit.

 

[lamajama]

Man for a big guy Phaneuf can't fight.

BUT - this is why fighting should be allowed.

 

[Zee]

Such BS that Phaneuf had to do that. Foligno should have been kicked out of the game for attempt to injure earlier.

 

[Derk]

Lots of credit to Foligno for dropping the gloves there.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Every time I see Foligno he is bigger than I expect he is.
