Keefe tired of Tavares dragging down Willy

Willy is doing a fantastic job of dragging himself down lately. 

Yeah, he looks like he's dogging it again.  I just don't get it.

$92 million is pretty heavy.

 

[ZBBM]

Bout time we caught a break, but man wow what a shot!!

A superstar can save the day ? Sundin used to do it a lot ? but only for so long.

True, but beginning of season Willy didn?t need JT

JT was still in the play in the early parts of the season. He is behind everything now (Reaves style). Give him the puck and it just disappears into a bunch of legs.

Well we all know Willy will check out for periods of time and we and obviously the Leafs bit on the early season Willy for having ?arrived?. Not that another team wouldn?t have paid him probably $11m anyway. He does return to focus so that had better be quick.

But why?  Why check out?  I mean, Mitch Marner can make some bad plays and struggle and all of that, but he never checks out.  If anything he tries to do too much.

Sorry to repeat this but it?s gonna be even harder to shrug off Willy disappearing @ $11.5.

Yep another mistake.

That is MM right there...when things don't go right he tries to do too much instead of just playing.

$92 million is pretty heavy.

Sad part is paid more than he should have got, heavy bonus money, NTC and NMC which Pasternak didn't even get all the same and even more money. Wouldn't be surprised if Tre or Shanny wipe his a** to when he drops one. If they replace 16 and 91 and change the makeup of this team I'll be able to maybe be ok with it. If they cave in to Mitch then I'm not sure where we are headed.

I don't want to lean on Willy too much because the backend is where it REALLY isn't getting done.  Well, them and a bunch of non-Willy forwards. 

 

[ZBBM]

Brodie barfs one up again.  He looks done.  Jeez

 

[barney_rebel]

We rule man

 

[ZBBM]

Willy redeems his first period, nice pass

 

[Bender]

Yessss! Matthews! The big boys showed up for this one.

 

[herman]

Wicked

Beauty. That's a he'll of a shift by Marner tho.

Yep, his motor was running.

 

[Bender]

If only Rielly got that off a little earlier. Close one.

Hard 4th line shift helped setup the line change for Marner to pressure them into a penalty draw.

 

[Guilt Trip]

Holmberg with another apple.

 

[cw]

How was that not a penalty? What did I miss? (Nylander seemed to get cut down)
