The shot-pass was obviously great too but it was Gardiner's solo zone entry that started that sequence all off.

Vegas was jumping for the drop pass and he head faked it off.

 

[herman]

Well well well

First time with PP goals in back to back games since Nov 26th and Dec 1st.

Might be one of the best side-skaters in the league. Can't even think of any other Leaf who does that kind of move.

 

[herman]

I like that they?re using the space behind the net on the PP now.

Edit: I meant the opponent?s net, guys

Nylander looks great.

Jeremy Bracco does it a lot too, for acceleration through the NZ even bit he is not a Leaf.

3 PP's in a row? What is this madness?

 

[herman]

Leafs pressure is forcing a parade to the penalty box. This is kind of what most of us were expecting of this team (and the reffing). Look for the bounce back calls shortly.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

This Vegas PK is very aggressive in the neutral zone.

 

[Bender]

So the first pp was good and now we're just playing Bizarro pp

This Vegas PK is very aggressive in the neutral zone.

Our drop passes were too delicate lol

 

[herman]

3 pp entries for Gardiner on 3 attempts.

 

[lc9]

Leafs PP1 breakout struggling. 

 

[herman]

Marleau nearly got his arm broken trying to tip that Muzzin slapper.

 

[herman]

Solid road period. Reilly Smith probably going to have some Dutch nightmares tonight.

 

[ZBBM]

Good period by the lads.  Would have been nice to get another PP goal though.  That last one was nearly a disaster.

 

[lc9]

Good first period.  PP2 looked good thanks to Nylander, he was all over the puck. 

1-0 after 20 on the road.  Yes sir.

"Delicate" is putting it diplomatically.  "Half-assed" is another term that springs to mind.
