[bustaheims]

Leafs join the Hawks as the only teams to have a pair of 20+ goal scorers so far this season.

Neil doing something arguably dirty?

What a muppet play by Neil

Neil? Never.

I liked the color guy's comment 'that was a stupid penalty for Neil to take' which was followed immediately by hubby's comment that 'everything Neil does is stupid'

Alfie Alfie Alfie!

FFS!  7 seconds left in the period... And I was just thinking "get outta this period"... Ugh

 

[pnjunction]

Noooo

Would've been a near-perfect first period

 

[lc9]

End of period play...agh.

 

[ZBBM]

That makes it a game, doesn't it.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Yeah that's a crap one to give up.

Although I hate to say it, was a beauty backhand by Alfredsson there.  Wasn't much net - not many players can do that on the backhand, probably even in practice, let alone in game.

What I really don't get is why is the top line is out there in the last minute with a 2-0 lead. They are horrible in their own end. Put someone else out there and get out of the period up with the 2 goal lead. Wilson doesn't have a clue about defending with or without a lead.

Alfredsson sucks, but he doesn't suck.  If you get my meaning.

And as all Leaf goalies are prone to do.. Reimer lets in this game's weak one.

Hard to call that a weak one when he was knocked out of position right before the goal was scored.

And when Lombardi's goal was much "weaker"

Sheesh, it was borderline incidental contact on the goalie - it could have easily been called off, IMHO. No fault of Reimer there - tough crowd!

That too, I suppose. Also, as has been covered in previous posts, that was a very good shot by Ratboy. Credit where credit is unfortunately due.

Yeah he did get knocked a bit.. I'll give him that. Belfour would have found a way though! At least it happened when we had a 2-0 lead. Also, I agree that Lombardi's goal was pretty weak.
