I love MJ's call.  Gord was right on the goodness of the pass too.  Good duo, they are.

Bertuzzi is looking useful

Nylander attempts to behead Vladar.  The smooth Swede is a ruthless competitor.

4-3. tippp

 

[azzurri63]

Watching the Calgary feed Greg Mullen lol. Yep if the Flames can get the next one the alarm bells will go off. Leaf defence has been shaky. They coughed up the lead to the Senators the other night. What we were up 1-0 after 5 minutes lol.

Then the Flames score.

Reaves just watching pucks going in the wrong net the whole season

Guess who was on the ice on Calgary's 3rd goal?

I am sold on Zadorov.

If he gets another shift in this game whose fault is that?

 

[herman]

Is that his first career shortie?

Yes it is

dear god that 4th line! Just go 11-7, man this is just getting silly. I really don't put much stock into plus-minus stats but Reaves is a minus 11 already...For someone with so few minutes per night, that is kinda telling...

There's a reason he's 0-11 in goals on ice now. Like others have said every single one of those goals hasn't come from a direct error from him. Sometimes a goalie needs to save one, sometimes another player makes a mistake, sometimes it's nothing anyone could have done. But the simple reality is every single time Reaves steps on the ice the Leafs are playing 4-on-5 and that's very hard and it makes errors by everyone more likely to happen.

I don't think they have 7 D worth dressing at this point.  But yeah, Reaves needs to sit.

Honestly, play 11/6.  Double shifting Matthews/Marner/Nylander/Jarnkrok with that ice time makes more sense.  He's beyond useless

 

[ZBBM]

Matthews hasn't scored but he's buzzing.  And Gio comes in like a wrecking ball.

 

[herman]

Beautiful finish to the period

 

[azzurri63]

This 5 on 5 or 3 on 3?

Well, that's the other problem.  If you can't play the 4th line you have to overplay the other 3.  And they need to manage all the minutes throughout the course of the season better.

Yup

They better hold on and take the 2 points because tomorrow will be a tougher test.
