Bruins @ Leafs - Dec. 8th, 7:00pm - LeafsTV, TSN 1050

Why Carlyle can't see the obvious skill that Holland has is beyond me. I think this kid is going to be a very good player, you can tell that he has a really high hockey IQ. The coach needs to give him more minutes tonight.

It's painfully obvious how much better Ashton and D'Amigo are than Orr and McLaren.

If Holland had them for wingers and saw regular ice time, I'd be much less upset about him being on the 4th line.

HOLLLLLLLLLLAND

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

And Holland pays off.

 

[bustaheims]

Goal for Holland? No more shifts for you!

Seriously. Give this guy more ice time, skilled wingers and put him in offensive situations.

Gardiner's looking real good.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Gardiner has 3 points in 3 games. 5 in his last 8.

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

Why does that time keeper in the box always ham it up for the camera? It's weird when he does it for some reason.

 

[Bullfrog]

Terrible stream qualities tonight.  :-\

Not a bad period from the Leafs.  Boston doesn't look very good thus far.

D'Amigo 1:50
Holland 2:58
Ashton 3:43

Don't really understand.  Yesterday Ashton was the guy who got next to no playing time.  Tonight it's D'Amigo after he earned a bunch of minutes in the 3rd period.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Outshooting a team! Woooooo

 

[bakeapples]

Where did that team in blue come from??? Who are they?

 

[CarltonTheBear]

That 1:50 for D'Amigo included some PK time too, so he had 2 shifts at even-strength that period.

If only we could be sure that putting a talented young center on a sheltered scoring line would produce satisfactory results!

He has to somehow prove he's up to it, despite not being provided with any opportunities to do so. That's how it works.

Terrible stream qualities tonight.  :-\

great quality here: http://skwjr.co/nhl-stream/

vlc plugin still crashes on me occasionally, but it's high-def.

 

[bustaheims]

Outshooting a team! Woooooo

Not quite, no, but not being outshot by a team!

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Bruins down to 5 defencemen as Hamilton is apparently out.

 

[Joe S.]

That was a great first period... Considering the garbage we've seen lately. Hopefully they don't ease up.
