Game 80: Maple Leafs @ Buffalo, 7:00pm, Stop Getting Points!

[Ronco]

I have a hard time with Sports writers in this town. The Leafs are out.
Now the theme is "There is no quit in the players" Like give it a rest.
They quit in February wholesale.

They have 3 stinking games left, and "There is hope" Like hell.
Just lose go play Golf.

Yadda, Yadda, Yadda...next year.

Gunnarsson got nailed

I'm sorry, but Frattin doesn't seem to have a lot of finish.

Physical game , Rosehill > McNabb

 

[ZBBM]

Ha.  Rosehill gets MotM for that.

How can a kid who led the nation in goal scoring in the NCAA have no finish. McFate as much as me and you seem to agree on a lot of things I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one. The kid definitely has had his chances this year and should have more to show for it but I think he's going to be a big part of the future of this team. He's got a great shot and release, good size and solid frame, decent skater and shows a lot of hustle. The goals will come.

I can't believe this team. Buffalo eats our lunch routinely and we get this.

 

[13th fan]

Bozak scores and  take  the lead , I was hoping this game  was the loser ......Way to go , Frattin, welcome to the dance

 

[azzurri63]

McFate is that what you meant by finisher. Not much of a scraper though. Haha.

Well, he hasn't shown it yet.  Look at Foligno -- 6 goals in 11 games (and now cleans Matt's clock, though that's irrelevant to the point here).

 

[lamajama]

This is what the ACC would be like if they let hockey fans into the building eh?

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

Props to Frattin for addressing the Foligno problem tonight.

2 Italian boys I love it. Rather seen Matt drop Foligno. I don't look at an 11 game stretch to make a decision on someone but he had 5 of those goals in 3 games and he's been playing on the Sabres best line over the last month with Ennis and Stafford. See what he does next year.

The trapezoid is stupid.

The trapezoid is stupid.

Aren't they planning on getting rid of it?  I thought I heard something like that...

Fair enough re Foligno.  But I want to see Frattin start to produce.  He's had a fair amount of quality icetime this year.

And yeah, you would like the Italian guys, wouldn't you? 

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

Awesome goal for Bozak there!

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Are the Sabres even trying?

 

[13th fan]

Stop with the scoring

 

[azzurri63]

Perfect shot by Bozak. LOL.
