Global Series SWE: Maple Leafs @ Wild - Nov. 19th, 8:00am - SN, TSN 1050

[L K]

Leafs went up 3-1 and stopped skating.  Poor effort in this one

 

[herman]

Tavares line (sans Bertuzzi), is 0-1

 

[Zee]

This friggin team, not like the Wild are a high powered offense

 

[Guilt Trip]

Bad Nylander

 

[ZBBM]

Minnesota winning battles in the attacking zone.

 

[L K]

Most of the game feels like it has been in the Leafs zone.  They aren't winning puck battles and then are letting Minnesota control the puck.  They haven't given up a lot of high scoring chance opportunities but they have been far too passive

 

[lamajama]

Bad Willy will make amends

 

[L K]

More pressure and then the Leafs try and force a stretch pass/clear for icing.  Really not a good effort playing a team on the back half of a back to back. 

The Leafs keep defending like they are on a penalty kill letting Minnesota pass the puck around

 

[L K]

Outshot 10-4 in the period.  Wake the he'll up

 

[ZBBM]

Outshot 10-4 in the period.  Wake the he'll up

They have been outplayed since the 1st.

 

[herman]

I think Bertuzzi is nursing a minor injury still

 

[Guilt Trip]

Make sure to grab a point

 

[L K]

Minnesota is staying tight on the Leafs while the Leafs keep retreating and ceding zone time.  They are playing like they are protecting a late lead

2 games in the span of two weeks and they can't get the effort going

Ultimately though since the Ottawa game they have three wins so just keep picking up points

 

[ZBBM]

23 SOG is not vigorous.

 

[Bill_Berg]

Whew, loser point secure.

 

[Guilt Trip]

3 out of 4 pts so far.. Wild have played a very tight game.

 

[herman]

Let?s revisit this

[ZBBM]

Three guys in the corner, Woll bails them out

 

[L K]

The effort really hasn't been better in OT. 

 

[Arn]

I think Woll should be sporting a new Rolex in the next 15 or so minutes.
