Leafs @ Ducks - Mar. 10th, 10:00pm - LeafsTV, TSN 1050

Whoever said Clarkson was brought in to help them in the playoffs was right. I think when the games get tight, Clarkson could be a real beaut for the Leafs. Add a healthy Bolland and I think this team could make some waves this spring.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

Ranger's a beast the last couple games.

If he can keep it up I'd be interested in keeping him around next year.

 

[ZBBM]

Ranger with 2 key blocked shots, one in the 1st and then right before he scored the goal.  And a nice blast there.  He's finally rounding into shape in this 7-d-man scheme.

 

[caver]

Now get Franson going...

Yeah. This seven defensemen strategy is paying off dividends for Ranger and few others.

 

[BrownRolo]

If Clarkson plays like this I can learn to like him. Still insanely overpaid but at least showing some passion.

His passion was never lacking. It was his skillset that was a concern.

 

[Jalili]

Kessel's gotta be considered a strong bet at this point to be a finalist for the Lindsay, if not possibly for the Hart as well.

Obviously Crosby has both locked up barring injury, but I could see Kessel finishing as the runner-up.

 

[Stickytape]

Well, I have an early morning; I'm going to bed.  I'm completely relying on you guys, now.  Don't let me down.

 

[ZBBM]

I like how they are continuing to press the play offensively.  They play their best that way.

During most of this season the passion was definitely lacking. He was playing like one of the softer players on the team.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Well that was going to happen eventually.

 

[barney_rebel]

We stink dudes...

 

[TML fan]

Wow Perry made everyone look dumb on that shift.

 

[Kin]

Missing that high stick on Kessel cost the Leafs a goal there.

 

[pnjunction]

So was that other player fast or was Clarkson slow because he had a step to open ice and just flat lost it

 

[ZBBM]

Anaheim has given away the puck a lot tonight but they really are loaded up front.  Lindholm and Fowler look good to me on D as well.

 

[Beowulf]

Lupul-Kadri-Kessel were stuck out there as the forwards for that entire defensive shift...not ideal.

 

[azzurri63]

That's what happens when your out of the zone before the puck is.

 

[x.jr.benchwarmer]

Phaneuf and Gunnar were two bona fide pylons on that goal by the Ducks.  Carlyle would benefit from splitting them up.  In fact, the Ducks telecast just showed Perry making both defencemen look overmatched this game.
