Game 55: Maple Leafs @ Flyers, 7:00Pm, Battle of #1 Goalies?

Looked like he couldn't stop because the Flyer player hooked/interfered with him.

Gomez scored!

Edit - He's now on pace for almost 2!

He clearly tried to stop.

I can't say for sure but it looked like the Flyer had his stick on him once or twice too that got him turned around a bit.

 

[ZBBM]

I'm OK with that penalty -- we need to disturb Bobrovsky.  (Of course, only if we kill it.)

 

[crazyperfectdevil]

feeling rather pessimistic about this one

 

[pnjunction]

Maybe he could've stopped if he wasn't interfered with...but they always call it this way

 

[Mikhail Bloodnovsky]

He clearly tried to stop.

Bad penalty by Grabbo

That's what I saw. They've been doing it all night.

Did Connolly not have like 15 points after 15 games? He's at 25 after 43 games now including tonight. 10 points in 28 games isn't great...

I don't know what you want him to do there? He was driving the net. He tried to stop and lost his balance, possibly due to some interference.

 

[Tigger]

Aside from the interference, sure.

 

[Mikhail Bloodnovsky]

Whats the Leafs record losing after 2 periods?

 

[crazyperfectdevil]

gritty by reimer there..i like it

not a lot of wins-many losses I would imagine.

Gomez scored!

Even scarier... #IBN tweeted this morning that Gomez would score tonight.

Man Connelly has from what I've seen of the third, sucked big time.

 

[Tigger]

Gritty by Reimer, yup, no interference either...

2-18 and something.

Although, most teams have few wins-lots of losses when losing after 2.  There are a few exceptions (Boston is quite good comparatively).

 

[crazyperfectdevil]

well i didn't think they'd kill that penalty..they did ...maybe we'll get another powerplay?

 

[ZBBM]

I'm going to give the guys some credit here: it's been a decent 3rd period.  If we can get a fortunate goal, I think we'd go on to grab the extra point in OT.
