Game 1 - Habs @ Leafs - Thursday Oct 6th 2011 - 19:00 EST - 2-0 Win

[Tigger]

Didn't do too well on the 2 man advantage but that was a pretty solid period of hockey for the Leafs.

 

[ZBBM]

That was a rather disappointing 5 on 7 for us. 

 

[Scot4bz]

We need to start declining penalties.

Why do you go out and acquire the best face-off man in the league, and then not use him in key situations?

 

[Propellertop]

I can only describe our PP as HORRIFIC...

 

[Bender]

PP needs work, but the team looked a lot better in the 2nd. I can't believe it's already the 3rd.

 

[Erndog]

What a terrible 5 on 3... Embarassingly bad.  1 measly low % shot from Phaneuf.

If we want to make the playoffs we are going to have to capitalize on stuff like that!

 

[Stronger Than All]

I don't get it.  Our PP stinks but extended 5-3's?  nothing?????

Horrific is too good for it!

 

[Bullfrog]

You're welcome, but our fuzzy white friend should get some credit too. (Carlton the Bear, that is.)

 

[Tigger]

I really dont like Kessel with the puck...he seems to want to slow everything down...which just lets everyone get into position

I think he'll figure that out eventually but yeah, he's far better with speed right now. I wonder if they would consider a less traditional notion of PP configurations and use Phil when the play starts from defensive and neutral zone faceoffs with the man advantage? Not a '1st' and '2nd' but two groups for different start points, relatively.

 

[Bender]

Strombo sounds like he's smoked one too many doobs.

maybe they ate some asparagus?

He almost deked out Price on his own.

I thought it had better movement than last year but it's only game one, I'd give it some time.

Where's the bass on this song?

Randy Bachman is old.

Randy Bachman is old.

But he's lost some weight.
