Game 5 - Jets @ Leafs - Wednesday Oct 19th 2011 - 19:30 EST - TSN 4-2 Win

Perhaps premature pessimism. This young team can score a couple quick and tie it up.

Somebody quote this when they go 0-for on te pp and lose this one 5-1.

It's one thing to not score or even get a decent chance on a PP.  It's another to not even get into the zone -- against a team which, according to the pregame guys, "gives up a ton of chances."

No organization at all on the PP.  Whose fault is that?

Seriously, I don't want to be tiresome but I just don't see how you could avoid the conclusion that coaching has something to do with it.  All I know is I am sick of watching the same failures year after year.

Thank you for voicing the same displeasures as I do. It is frustrating.

When Komisarek is bad, it's like tailspin-out-of-control bad.

See, he's got no speed or agility to recover. He's a positional guy...like Giggy, if he's outta shape on the play, he's totally screwed.

I think he's usually pretty good postionally, but when they get hemmed in, he gets in trouble.

I think Steckel has inherited from Sjostrom the coveted Shayne Corson Memorial "Oh Good, that Leaf has some space in the Offensive zo...oh" Trophy.

Beer league hands. Someone once told me he was good on faceoffs though.
 
Well, if Connolly ever plays and Armstrong is still out, I'd try a third line of

Lombardi - Connolly - Frattin

and leave Bozak on the top line -- not because Bozak is having any particular offensive impact on the first line but rather that Connolly's offensive skills can give us a third scoring line whereas Bozak probably can't.
 
This is pure torture...so disappointing watching the Leafs get schooled by the Pegs. Shaky confidence, slow and lethargic in the first. Dead power play. WTF? Other teams pounce on this, they can smell the weakness.

This team is much better than they play!
