That goal was bullshit, a Devils player was holding on to Dewar's stick right after the faceoff so he couldn't even try to stick-check Meier before the shot. Although a real goalie might have at least tried to make that save too.Lot of frustrating moments.
- Allowing NJ to tie with 11 seconds left in the second
The unit that worked best was Liljegren-Marner-Bertuzzi-Matthews-Nylander. Only reason it got broken up was because both Marner and Liljegren got injured around the same time and have been out of the lineup.The PP needs a shakeup.
Bert, Matthews, Domi
Rielly, Marner
What's our choice... its Woll or Jones... I hate Sammy's last game but you start him game 1 and hope to god and go from there.Samsonov could have been 20-0 in his last 20 games and I still don't trust the guy
In the playoffs he's going to crack at the worst possible time, every time
We are screwed if he's in net
If we get bounced in the 1st round again, pretty much sure it’s because of how many we let in, as opposed to not scoring enough. If we put up 3 or 4 goals a game but let in 4 or 5, I couldn’t really blame the offenseJust saw this... wow... that's something...
With two more apples Thursday, Matthews' new go-to setup man is up to 36 5-on-5 assists. Only four NHLers have more than Domi, and they'll all be off to the Hall of Fame one day: Connor McDavid, Nikita Kucherov, Nathan MacKinnon, and Leon Draisaitl.

The last number of playoffs it has been usually finding the net is a problem.If we get bounced in the 1st round again, pretty much sure it’s because of how many we let in, as opposed to not scoring enough. If we put up 3 or 4 goals a game but let in 4 or 5, I couldn’t really blame the offense
We have no goalie period. Neither do most teams these days though. Which kind of defeats what I said but either way we have no reliable goaltending so we're still screwedJust saw this... wow... that's something...

Goals are up so yeah goalie stats are down but it will balance out in the next few years.We have no goalie period. Neither do most teams these days though. Which kind of defeats what I said but either way we have no reliable goaltending so we're still screwed
Weaker goalies mean more scoring and if all teams have weak goalies then it's an even playing field round the board.
The days of superstar goalies are long gone and it's no accident or some kind of unfortunate situation. This is how the league wants it because when you have 10 goals every game due to garbage goalies it makes the game more exciting and a more exciting game equals more viewership - plus, if all goalies suck on all 32 teams then it's a fair game for all teams.
It's the new NHL and all by design
Brodie and Gio say “thank you” for your kind comments.Lmao at "sloppy defensive effort". f*** off. They allowed 20 shots. Samsonov singlehandedly lost the game for them with a big assist from Keefe for not pulling him. Nothing else needs to be said. Rest of the team deserved better.
Nylander is 14th in the league in PP points while being 1st on the LeafsBruins @ Pitt, @ Wash, Sens
Florida Sabres, Leafs
Panthers one point behind still have a shot of winning the division if Bruins stumble.
So your 3rd line is an all-rookie line for the playoffs? Yikes!Holmberg McMann Knies
Kampf Dewar Reaves
I’m not that jazzed about Jarnkrok’s return, he was useless last playoff and has never done anything post season his entire career. With Dewar and McMann emerging on the PK, he isn’t the necessity we think he is, but I know Keefe loves him to death so…
I've been saying that for a while - Bert is a better net front presence than JT.The unit that worked best was Liljegren-Marner-Bertuzzi-Matthews-Nylander. Only reason it got broken up was because both Marner and Liljegren got injured around the same time and have been out of the lineup.

wow could your tinfoil hat be any bigger?How is the NHL designing weaker goalies?
Are they going around kneecapping all the better goalies as soon as they hit 16?
Are they instructing all teams to not hire any goalies on their secret 'top 100' list?
Are they kidnapping all the competent goalie coaches and replacing them with their own specially trained incompetent ones?
Maybe they are just breaking into all the houses of all the good goalies in the world and hiding machines that broadcast subliminal 'play like crap' messages?
The fact that we have never heard any suggestion of anything even remotely like this is just proof of the extent of the conspiracy, right?
You're the one who suggested that the NHL was designing weaker goalies.wow could your tinfoil hat be any bigger?
lol YOU literally just listed 4 or 5 tinfoil hat conspiracies!!!You're the one who suggested that the NHL was designing weaker goalies.
I was just asking how.
Samsonov is the perfect goalie for this team, like Bits and Bites, you never know what your going to get handful to handful............Just saw this... wow... that's something...

every year the Leafs display killer offense in the regular season and every playoffs it dries up like a popcorn fart, what's going to change this year?If we get bounced in the 1st round again, pretty much sure it’s because of how many we let in, as opposed to not scoring enough. If we put up 3 or 4 goals a game but let in 4 or 5, I couldn’t really blame the offense
We might get flukey, lol!! I don’t expect much. Will still be down for a day but no big deal.Samsonov is the perfect goalie for this team, like Bits and Bites, you never know what your going to get handful to handful............

I guess you missed it.lol YOU literally just listed 4 or 5 tinfoil hat conspiracies!!!
where do you guys come up with this stuff
Internet is going hard todayI guess you missed it.
YOU came up with the insane idea that it is the design of the NHL to have weaker goalies.
All I was doing was making fun of your crazy idea.
Maybe you didn't miss it after all - you certainly haven't offered anything to support your statement. All you've done is to try to deflect your weird idea onto me.
