Islanders vs. Maple Leafs - Mar. 21st, 7:30pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

It was over at 3-1, Sorokin was good. What an embarrassing outcome.

 

[Guilt Trip]

I take it this has been the proverbial defecation of the bed by Samsonov.  I've only seen the goals against this period.

He's not giving ye pick away but he's not good enough tonight. Even that last one he looked weak on.
Game 1 starter still up for grabs. Let's see what Murray does next game.

If he is not 100% then why wasn?t Woll given the game
Insane

It's probably a sore elbow or something simple. If it was anything of a serious nature he wouldn't be playing and Woll wouldn't have been sent down to the Marlies. He just wasn't good enough tonoght. Sammy for whatever reason isn't good away from Scotiabank.

It was a game until the 4th goal.

Seeing his postgame I think his head wasn't 100% in the game.  He's thinking about his upcoming baby.  Give Murray the next two starts and call up Woll.  Let Ilya be with his wife

He's going home and Murray and Will will be the guys in the rest of the trip...his head def wasn't into this game.

That was the first Touchdown + Convert we've given up this season and largest loss differential (-5). Looked like everyone was already thinking about the trip to Florida.

Imagine, Kerfoot and Jarnkrok on the same line as Matthews, who would get the puck to Matthews, what genius thought this up.

Yep no idea wtf goes through Keefes head with some of his lineup decisions. 2 guys who should be 3rd line at best playing with arguably your best player.

Maybe, just maybe he's trying to figure out his 2-4th lines for the playoffs. I think we all know he can put together a pretty good 1st line.

 

[hobarth]

I think what we need is a dominant 1st line, a no more excuses 1st line that can and will be dominant in the playoffs. I think Matthews hasn't looked better this year and the idea that he does exceptional work only to have to pass to Jarkrok and Kerfoot is preposterous. Passing to and working with say Mitch and Willie makes way more sense to me. Keefe has never truly tried to establish a dominant line, he unites them late in games when needed rather than leaving them together and allowing them develop some kind of chemistry.

Liljegren taketh and then quickly giveth away

Brilliant play on retrieval

We?ve seen this fan-pass before. Is he taping his stick the wrong direction

So I think he should tape closer to the heel. This is already more than he used to do.
