Leafs @ Rangers - Dec. 20th, 7:00pm - SNO, Fan 590

That?s an awful goal to give up.  Whiffs on it and it ends up in the net.  That?s too bad.

Why is a D man that deep and no one on him?

 

[Guilt Trip]

Guy fans on it and in it goes. Unfortunate. Coverage was brutal. Marner too slow to react to Holl going to the puck carrier.

 

[lc9]

Marner won?t shoot.  Not the best opportunity, but still let it go. 

 

[lc9]

Find a way to get out of this period with the lead, dzone work has been awful and rangers have 2 posts and a goal.

 

[Bullfrog]

NYR 2-1 in posts so far.

 

[Guilt Trip]

Ok I'm saying it. Willy needs to be better. Very weak defensively with his drive by stick check.

 

[herman]

Haha where is everyone in front of the net?

 

[Bullfrog]

Both D men behind the net = not good.

 

[ZBBM]

2-2.  Lots of loose play, this thing could be 7-6.

 

[lc9]

That?s just unacceptable.  Get up 2 and then this.  That?s not good enough. 

 

[lc9]

They aren?t trying at all on defense. 

 

[Guilt Trip]

Brutal play for Rielly and Barrie there and no forward to be found picking up the guy in the slot.

Same old story.  Players aren?t interested in playing defense.  It?s ridiculous. 

 

[herman]

Timashov with the stick fake going up the ice to shake off a stick check

 

[lc9]

Just like the 3rd period of the Sabres game. Man alive, just play defense.

Dzone "coverage" - still a work in progress.

 

[lamajama]

Johnsson or Kapi are going to have to be sacrificed to get some help. It?s a pity but it?s really the only option Dubas has. Cecil isn?t wanted by anyone else and I doubt they really want to move Barrie.

 

[ZBBM]

Ehhh typical Leafs D or lack thereof.

 

[Guilt Trip]

-2 for the Tavares line. Not a good period defensively for them. Oh well still brand new game and Keefe's record intact. Leafs haven't trailed after the 1st in any game he's coached. Get it together in the 2nd.
