Lightning @ Leafs - Mar. 15th, 7:30pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

Komarov back on the bench. Looks a bit ginger.

Edit: too ginger apparently. Komarov is out.

 

[Kin]

This is such a weird group of players. It's like half guys I'm super excited to watch and half guys who are just human placeholders and who I'm actively annoyed to see out there.

 

[McGarnagle]

man, that's either a trip or a dive, surely someone should be going off.

That was brutal. Can't get a much more obvious trip directly in front of a ref.

 

[herman]

Ummm

Gardiner beats out two forecheckers by not playing the puck. Pretty slick.

 

[herman]

I bet Callaghan doesn't get an instigator for this.

Edit: upon further review, okay.

 

[ZBBM]

Yeah, that was very cool.

 

[Bullfrog]

Parenteau, the thug!

 

[Highlander]

whats going on with our tank :'(

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

I bet Callaghan doesn't get an instigator for this.

Holland apparently deserved an extra 2:00 earlier for roughing yet it's 4 on 4 after this one.

 

[Guru Tugginmypuddah]

I'm all for the tank, but man, winning is fun.

 

[herman]

Bernier is looking extra sharp. Those redirect bouncers are not a problem.

And Marincin and Smith with very unselfish plays to net the empty for Hyman.

 

[McGarnagle]

I maaaaaaayyyy be coming around a bit on Marincin.

 

[L K]

An awful lot of placeholder goals/points.

 

[herman]

I maaaaaaayyyy be coming around a bit on Marincin.

What took you so long?
He's a nicer Chara that can skate and doesn't care about scoring (because he can't shoot yet).

 

[ZBBM]

Lamoriello: "Jonathan, do you know who J-S Aubin is?"
Bernier:  "Um, uh, I think so Lou, er -- yeah, didn't he serve time with Mandela on Robben Island?"
*swoosh as Bernier disappears down trap door*
Lamoriello: "Close enough."

We got him aaaand player coach Laich aaaaand a second round pick for Winnik.

 

[McGarnagle]

If the leafs win their next game, I'll go and watch Sicilian Vampire.

 

[Kin]

Kind of tough to judge him right now. He's a bottom pairing guy playing 25+ minutes a night. No matter what one of those contexts is going to be misleading here.
