Game 62: Capitals @ Maple Leafs, 7:00 CBC

[Derk]

Ah, the old obvious shot easily deflected into the crowd trick.

 

[pnjunction]

Frattin and Lupul are the only ones really bringing it out there up front

Can we play Frattin with Grabovski instead of Connolly please?

 

[ZBBM]

Boy, when Healy's not on the sidelines Hughson and Simpson are a lot easier on the Leafs. 

 

[Zee]

The Caps are playing back to back as well. Unreal.

 

[Tigger]

I don't know why I turned this back on. It's like watching my summer league team play...

Same reason I'm here, we're fans.

Hey, smell this milk...

 

[Derk]

Another sad period for the Leafs. This season could be flushed down the toilet VERY quickly. Right now, Leafs would pick 10th overall.

 

[Sweenbot]

One more period until the effort kicks in.

 

[Mack674]

One more period until the effort kicks in.

Unfortunately, it will be 4-0 by then.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

Armstrong will never do anything playing on that 4th line. If we're paying him 3M let's have him on the 3rd line where he'll get a chance (or at least some ice time) to be effective.

I really hope we're sellers in the next couple days.

 

[13th fan]

That period cause me more liver damage.

 

[ZBBM]

I'd put Gustavsson in to start the 2nd.  Reims held his ground after the 2 awful ones but he looks real suspect.  And it's less crowd-baiting to switch goalies in between periods.

 

[TML fan]

Yeah Don, I can blame the goaltender. And I will.

 

[Kaberle15]

Memo to Burke: Hold tight to the Leafs 1st this season...

 

[Propellertop]

I must be slip'n. Cherry almost sounded like he knew what he was talking about there. I say you just ride Reimer and take your medicine.

 

[Derk]

"It's not the goaltenders' fault, it's the defense!!!"

 

[Zee]

"It's not the goaltenders' fault, it's the defense!!!"

I can't believe he let Gustavsson off the hook for the OT goal. LOL

Really.  I am a Gus supporter but that was beyond brutal.

I guess props to Cherry for defending a Euro.

 

[Propellertop]

"It's not the goaltenders' fault, it's the defense!!!"

I can't believe he let Gustavsson off the hook for the OT goal. LOL

He's big on shot blocking but he also says get out of the way if you're not going to block it. Bozak was out of the way and he got blamed for NOT blocking it. That WAS a bit strange.

I think he put it well, fwiw, messing with a goalies confidence is a certain kind of recipe.

If you can't blame a goalie for letting in a shot that was going wide, you can't ever blame a goalie for any goal ever again. Well done Don.
