Leafs @ Blues - Nov. 4th, 7:00pm - CBC, Fan 590

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Two Taranna boys still skating here.

 

[ZBBM]

herman you are right about Hyman, the best forward tonight.

 

[rdowdall]

Hyman = 100 + 100

So two Seth Griffiths?  I need to know where he is on the Seth Griffith scale.

 

[herman]

Andersen should be pulled. He?s been shaking his head the whole time since getting Schenn?s stick to the face.

 

[herman]

Lol Hyman

He shouldn?t think about feeding Matthews so much as he should be thinking about driving to the prime spots.

 

[rdowdall]

So that's the type of play they have to get rid of.  At the start of the period, Matthews threw it to no one.  And just now Brown passed it to no one.  They have to get away from this make the most pretty play ever mentality and just grind out some goals.

 

[ZBBM]

Bozak. 2nd.

 

[azzurri63]

So what has Nylander done to see the bench.

 

[herman]

WOW A SKILLED 4th LINE IS PRETTY COOL EH.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Martin with two very good apples tonight.

 

[Guru Tugginmypuddah]

Bozak. 2nd.

Assisted by Matt "Tie Domi" Martin.

 

[herman]

So what has Nylander done to see the bench.

?\_(ツ)_/?

JvR, I understand.
Kapanen on the bench... okay, because Marleau is needed for Kadri's line.
Nylander... not a centre, apparently, so...

Edit: just being held in reserve for a sheltered OZ start.

 

[ZBBM]

Martin with two very good apples tonight.

Yes indeed.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

My biggest problem with the team recently is the bomb from their own goal line looking for a tip at the offensive blue line, it?s such a low percentage play, you?re hoping the pass gets to a spot where you immediately give possession away. It?s too predictable and when teams clog things up it ends with you getting pinned in your own zone constantly.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

They ice the puck doing exactly that with the net empty and under a minute left.

 

[azzurri63]

Had ample chances to get the puck deep in the Blues zone but such dumb decisions with the puck.

 

[ZBBM]

8-7 now.  Plenty of time to right the ship but fundamental changes are needed.

 

[herman]

Hyman: 15 GP 4G 4A 8Pts, on pace for 21G 21A
Brown: 15 GP 6G 3A 9Pts, on pace for 32G 16A

Scaling for tightening back half of the season, there's a really good chance Hyman hits 15G and Brown goes over 20G, considering both of their deployments.

 

[azzurri63]

Gardiner, JVR, Komarov and Martin need new homes.

 

[Al14]

I have nothing good to say about the Leafs, their coach, or, the NHL Refs and Linesman!  NOTHING!
