Leafs @ Lightning - Jan. 17th. 7:30pm - SNO, Fan 590

[ZBBM]

Terrific effort by the Leafs thru 2.

 

[Guilt Trip]

Is this game too easy for Mitch Marner?

Sure looks that way sometimes. Can't wait for Nylander to get going so we can see what this team can really do.

 

[herman]

Totally here for how the Leafs are pushing the Lightning onto their heels.

Babcock rolled out Matthews-Tavares-Nylander and then Kadri-Tavares-Matthews with Rielly and Gardiner following that Andersen-led PK.

No time like the present, Willie.

What are the odds of Babcock in the dressing room saying "ok boys let's lock this one down, Nikita, Jake you two are playing at least 12 minutes in the 3rd be ready!"

 

[Guilt Trip]

Matthews, Tavares, Kadri, Rielly, and Gardiner finished out that period. Me likey.

I liked it to. Jake made some good plays at the point there. Not to jinx him but Jake looks a lot more poised tonight.

This is truthful.  In contrast to the last few games, picking a MotM will be hard tonight.

We all hope. This team will start flying on all cylinders once he gets going.

Yeah if Matthews and Nylander get going in the 3rd it might be corner turning, I want to see one of them score.

Did you hear Craig Button complaining about Babcock?s coaching like a Leaf fan?

He said he coached like a Leafs fan?

I heard him on Leafs lunch giving it to Bab's saying he isn't coaching well enough. I totally agreed with what he was saying. He's right, a coach's job is to put his players in a position to succeed and as far as Button was concerned, nope, not good enough.

 

[ZBBM]

Yeah if Matthews and Nylander get going in the 3rd it might be corner turning, I want to see one of them score.

I agree -- if both of them step it up and lead the team to a win it would be more than just 2 pts in the bank.

 

[lc9]

Refs gonna ref against leafs.  Horrible call. 

 

[lc9]

No one ever taught brown how to protect a puck I see. 

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Gonna chalk it up to being a miracle that we weren't scored on on that PP.

 

[lc9]

That PK is all sorts of awful.  Thank god for Andersen tonight.

 

[dappleganger]

Refs gonna ref against leafs.  Horrible call.

It wasn?t a penalty earlier when Nylander?s stick got knocked outta his hand in a similar fashion.

 

[Zee]

The next PP will go to Tampa won't it?

 

[lc9]

Gardiner almost gave up that breakaway.  Yeesh.
