What a bunch of losers!!!
They?re brutal. What place are they in??
I see this as a mirror image of last game. We limited their chances then and they limited ours except for the first ten minutes. As the commentators said it didn't seem like the hit difference had that big of an impact.azzurri63 said:A Weekend at Bernier's said:wnc096 said:azzurri63 said:There you go f?kn losers lazy bloody effort.

Yes I know don?t get too excited division has some weak teams. What gets me is effort and intensity that is lacking at times. 46-16 hits for Montreal. Enough said. Too many floaters.

No, actually not enough said. They lost by one goal. Please explain how the hit differential led to this narrow loss.
You're arguing with a Don Cherry doll with pull string and 3 phrases. At some point you've heard it all and shouldn't expect anything different or better.Bullfrog said:azzurri63 said:Yes I know don?t get too excited division has some weak teams.

Read my previous post. Said it doesn?t cost you the game. What it does show is a willingness to dish out hits to retrieve the puck, gain possession etc. Lack of hits by this team means you have a skilled team but a lack of grit, toughness etc. Some of you I?m sure feel it?s not needed but I beg to differ and this is the regular season. Dubas built a team with no vision for toughness and size. Only this off season they addressed it with Simmonds. We need more guys like him. We have too many that avoid any sort of contact. When Matthews your best player is one who dishes out more hits than others there?s a problem.

In one of Craig's few insightful comments last night, he touched on this.

Holy crap, did you watch the first period? Did you see the Marner and Matthews magic? why in gods green earth would you break that up?

Marner: 15GP 7G 15A 22P Matthews: 14GP 11G 6A 17P Tavares: 15GP 5G 9A 14P Nylander: 15GP 4G 8A 12P
What the hell else do you expect? The "big 4" are top 4 in points on the team.
The issue isn't their overall point totals. Their issue is at even strength..JT has 8 ESpts in 15games, Willy 7 ESpts in 15games. Take it further, JT has 1 ES goal, Willy, 3...not good enough.Bullfrog said:I know points aren't everything, but:

Matthews and Marner are PPG players at even strength. Leafs need to be a 2 line attack. Right now they're not.
