Montreal just taking out whoever they want in front of the net

Marner is completely snakebit tonight.

 

[Arn]

I still think the Leafs were the better team tonight

Marner is completely snakebit tonight.

He hasn't looked good tonight.

Agree.

Kind of a weird game.  On to Game 2, which they had better win.

Can't say they really played badly, but a SHG is just a backbreaker.

If Tavares is out the hill gets that much steeper.

Brutal.

Well it?s a 7 game series.  They didn?t play badly.  The PP reverted back to looking bad after the first two that looked decent so that is certainly concerning and we lost one of our top forwards. 

End of the day 1 goal isn?t good enough.

This was a frustrating game to watch. I hate watching the Leafs lose in the playoffs.

I wouldn't be against firing Manny Malhotra right now in all honesty.

Yeah but at some point that has to translate in to wins

How the Frig is giving Hyman whiplash a legal play?? It was after the whistle!

That's cool but an inconsequential hook where a guy chicken armed the stick is a penalty.

Agreed.  They will be done quick if they don?t figure out how to score.

Agree.

I agree as well

I figured this was a loss after the Tavares injury. The guys did a good job to get their heads back in the game after the intermission. They'll come back.

 

[ZBBM]

The first 2 PPs looked really good.  But maybe all the hitting took something out of them in the 3rd.

 

[dekedastardly]

The stupid blind drop pass that they so frequently use, and fumble, is their undoing.

I'm not sure the Leafs can get away with playing Thornton, Spezza and Simmonds every game. One or maybe 2 of them, but 3...that's a lot of slow/ineffective in the lineup. Simmonds in particular doesn't really do anything. He's not hitting people (seems like he's always step behind), not really good at anything else at this point. Bring in Engvall and Gally and sit one of those 3 next game. Heck, maybe sit 2 of them and bring in Brooks too.

I'm assuming Tavares is done for the series and maybe the season.

 

[Stronger Than All]

This Habs team is a bunch of mediocre players, cheap shot artists and Carey Price.
