Leafs @ Sabres - Nov. 29th, 7:30pm - LeafsTV, TSN 1050

[Beowulf]

Yeah, he got the puck first, but, only because he threw his entire body towards JvR's legs.

I don't even think he did - I think he got the skates at the same time as the puck.

It was close but definitely not clear cut that he got the puck first by any means. Either way yeah it's insane that's not a penalty.

Nothing surprises me anymore. Paul &&@/&&:&:!( Ranger. 

 

[drummond]

I want Carlyle head

 

[TML fan]

They did a lot of things better in that 3rd period, but this team is in serious trouble.

 

[Stronger Than All]

I don`t care about the point, it`s the fact that we lost AGAIN in Buffalo.  I`m embarrassed to be a LEafs fan right now.

 

[ZBBM]

Ranger deserves the pine for that but he did save a goal in the 1st.

 

[bustaheims]

mirtle: Liles: 10 points in 13 games and plus-8 in the AHL. Call him up. Enough is enough.

I'm 100% on board with this. Send down Ranger, bench Fraser. Put Liles and Rielly back in. The defensive play can't get much worse, but, having a little more mobility and puck skill back there could go a long way to help.

We stink dudes...

 

[Peter D.]

Every team beats the snot out of Buffalo. The Leafs have given them a third of their wins. This team can stuff it.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

I want Carlyle head

Umm.....this isn't the forum for that.

 

[bustaheims]

We stink dudes...

No. It's worse than that. The Leafs are the stink that even stink finds offensive.

 

[TML fan]

I really don't like blaming refs, but that was a penalty.

 

[sneakyray]

lol...remember when the leafs were pretending to be a good team.

reimer plays a whole lot better when he stays in the net...

 

[Stronger Than All]

yeah and the refs can suck it again too.  I know we suck but they killed us the last 2 games.

I completely forgot JM Liles.

Same here. I'm really pulling for Ranger, but he's just not putting it together. I'm still fine with him as a 6th d-man, but I just can't see how Liles doesn't deserve to play in the NHL.

 

[ZBBM]

I think Julien jinxed us when he said we were the real deal.

 

[BermudaBudsFan]

Time for Ranger to pack his bags.  Nothing personal, but he isn't good enough.

 

[Stronger Than All]

I understand putting the whistles away late in the third but we were DOWN A MAN already.

 

[azzurri63]

If we lose this I hope there a Columbus type game tomorrow against Montreal.

Something needs to be done about this extremely poor play.

Barring a trade Nonis' hands are tied. Poor play has been going on for quite some time. When you really look at this lineup after the first 2 lines there isn't much else and the Kadri line hasn't been doing much. Grabovski should have stayed as the middle is where we are hurting. His contract I didn't like but should have kept him for the 3rd line. Get Carlyle out of here and bring in someone who can get them playing better defensively. Something needs to be done and soon.
