R1, G5: Lightning @ Maple Leafs - Apr. 27th, 7:00pm - SN, Fan 590

[Highlander]

How is he alone in front of the net like that?

Holl went for a hit somewhere else

Knies looks very easy to play with: puts pucks in good spots for his linemates, and plays ?predictable? routes

 

[Bill_Berg]

Drives me nuts that the play seems to constantly be in our end.

Hedman looking for the magic soccer spray

 

[ZBBM]

Except for the Rielly goal I'd say this is our usual slow start.

Tavares? pass to Rielly was courtesy of two Lightning players trying to mash him

 

[herman]

Booty bonk!

McCabe with another hit!!

 

[Deebo]

Another bad start.

 

[L K]

I feel like every time Giordano tries to clear the puck it goes right on a Tampa stick

 

[Highlander]

Another bad start.

When did Stamkos start channeling De Niro

 

[herman]

Ian Cole pucks up Schenn?s leg after the stop on the boards, so Luke just says, ok and leans on him

[ZBBM]

No, they won't be giving us a 5 on 3.  It's the playoffs.

 

[herman]

Will they be brave enough to call both penalties

 

[L K]

Probably be a 5 on 3 but I get that isn't going to get called

 

[L K]

I don't actually hate how the Leafs are playing.  They are playing prevent hockey right now.  Looking for Tampa to make mistakes.  Tampa isn't generating much other than raw puck possession.  I'd like to see them push the play a bit more though

 

[herman]

Shoot from farther away, cowards

 

[herman]

Wow big saves from Vasilevskiy after Nylander earns J?rnkrok a very good look

 

[L K]

Man some great chances there.  More screened deflection shots.  I don't like watching Vasilevskiy make those saves

 

[ZBBM]

Oh oh, Vasi seems to be finding his game.
