Game 8 - Leafs @ Flyers - Monday Oct 24th 2011 - 19:00 EST - 4-2 Loss

Jagr still getting re-accustomed to the speed of the NHL game...but no worries tonight he still makes Schenn and Komisarek look like they have cinder blocks on their feet.

He looked fantastic from the highlights I saw

why Pronger wasn't hospitalized.

A bit soon, no?

Maybe if taken a certain way I suppose. I took it as a compliment to the guy.

Nah, if he didn't go to the hospital he should be fine. Good to hear.

People want to talk "what have you done for me lately" how about MacArthur and Lombardi.  Whole lotta nothing for 6+M lately.

If those guys are worth 3.25 and 3.5 million what the hell is Grabovski worth.

I just can't believe how bad our PK is year after year. Unreal.

Its Wilsons specialty

They've changed the coaching staff and it's not Wilson that's the one responsible for the PK. Keith Acton was previously if I recall. I'm not sure who's 'in charge' now.

So the only constant is Wilson then?

Which makes him easy to blame but we're not getting in lanes and not aggressively going after the puck in my opinion but I think it's execution and not strategy.

for the 4th year in a row, but hey give the coach a break..........just wait till next year, right?

Man that Pronger thing instantly made me think of Berard. As a segue, he's doing fantastic on BOTB.

Another thing - is there a way to turn off this stupid warning telling someone else posted before I can post? I couldn't care less. And another thing, everytime I DO post, it kicks me outta the thread back to the Leafs Talk screen.

Jeez, Lombardi couldn't work out for an entire year almost.  He is clearly feeling it out there, you don't just go back to peak physical fitness against players who have been working out non-stop.

Pronger update: He is seeing an eye specialist but because of swelling, more time will be required for an evaluation. No further details.

Really totally agree with you there.

Not again...

Briere is a puke, I don't like him.

Nice kill....seems like they were alot more aggressive on the puck. I think somebody said that.

Thanks.

When the Leafs actually got set up in the zone there for a second, the PP looked half decent

Pronger has some blurry vision and swelling, currently in with eye specialist

Looked like a different strategy and arrangement on that last PP, Gardiner made gaining the zone look so easy.

 

[Bender]

Leafs are pretty lazy right now. We need some offense from someone not named Kessel.

I wonder if Gardiner and Schenn could be a better duo...
