Hurricanes @ Leafs - Feb. 22nd, 7:00pm - CBC, Fan 590

[ZBBM]

To be fair, Carolina is playing fantastic defensive hockey right now.

But it's like they pulled the goalies with 20 minutes to go.

 

[Bill_Berg]

I can't remember feeling worse during a regular season game than I do right now.  Just sad times.

 

[TheMightyOdin]

Can we get that nun lady from game of thrones to ring a bell and yell ?shame? as they walk back into the dressing room?

 

[dekedastardly]

Who's responsible for running Carolina's defense systems? Brind'amour? He should be headhunted. What ever they're paying him, triple it.

Yup. Not allowing anything to get to the net. Doesn?t help that the Leafs are wilting under the pressure, but Carolina?s smothering defence is a big part of why they?re winning.

 

[Highlander]

Where is Waffleman when you need him?

Wafflebott you mean.  I love you Zamboni driver.. if the Leafs could ever give there Goalie this kind of protection then we would be 87-0
What a fucking embarrassment.

I?ve been a conscious Leaf Fan for over 50 years. I live in BC and have suffered thru...well we all know what we?ve suffered thru...THIS if they lose will be fodder forever for every anti-Leaf hater in Canada, let alone my circle of Canuck fans.

I watch EVERY Leaf game (thanks PVR) and have for decades.

This may be the true end of my caring.

 

[Kin]

I'm sorry but as sluggish as this team looks right now this is a coaching thing. If you can't even figure out a way tactically to generate shots you shouldn't be coaching a NHL team.

 

[ZBBM]

I hate Toronto's crowd.  They should be booing these guys off the ice.

 

[Chris]

Should pull the goalie right now.

 

[Guilt Trip]

LOL...Leafs ain't gonna lose this one if this goalie has to play the rest of the game.

Looks like I may have underestimated the ability of this team to suck.

Haha. Theyve had like 8 shots on this guy. Hahaha. Too funny.

 

[BermudaBudsFan]

I feel as disheartened as I ever have as a Leaf fan right now.  It is cruel.  So much talent and so little compete.  This team is not worthy of any fan?s investment or time.  Completely and utterly devoid of any concern or care for themselves, the organization, fans.  They are not worthy of us.  Period.

 

[herman]

Just try to Toskala it

 

[AvroArrow]

A major? I don't think Clifford even saw him.

Seriously?  He tried to reach it ahead of the goalie.

As in reaching with stick.

He was racing for the puck and had his eyes squarely on it.

He was reaching for the puck with the hope to scoop it away from Mrazek.  He's got more than 10 degrees of vision.

Right. Going for the puck. Not trying to hit anyone.

So now you're changing your statement....  The kind of thing you go off on others for... Good work.

They might but they're busy enjoying sushi and Sapporo

 

[berserker]

He looks like that old Bruins goalie . What was his name ?

 

[TheMightyOdin]

6 shots in the third people. SIX!

No? I've always maintained he was going for the puck and wasnt trying to hit anyone. Not super complicated.

 

[cujo4ever]

Tim Thomas?

 

[Guilt Trip]

And Pesce is out too. Don't know why they refuse to shoot the puck. 6 3rd period shots.
