Game Notes

TOR
?Andersen (12-5-0, 2.08 GAA, .935 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?Freddy will look to continue his 6-game winning streak. He has a 1.33 GAA and .963 Sv% in that stretch

CAR
?Darling (2-3-1, 2.99 GAA, .903 Sv%) will likely start for the Hurricanes
?Our old buddy Curtis McElhinney is 4-2 with a 2.51 GAA and .903 Sv% with the Hurricanes this season. He seems to have a leg up on other/currently injured back-up Petr Mrazek, who has a .880 Sv% in 8 games
?Sebastian Aho is continuing to prove he's one of the best young talents in the game today. After recording 65 points in his sophomore season he's started this one off with 23 in 20 games
?Carolina currently leads the league in possession numbers boasting a 59% CF. Corsi-monsters Justin Williams (64.9%) and Jordan Staal (63.2%) lead the way there
?The Hurricanes are of course one of the teams heavily interested in our Willy. Brett Pesce, a rumoured trade chip on Carolina, will likely miss the game with an injury

High CF% teams are a curiosity to me these days, so I like taking a look at where they're shooting from and preventing shots best:

Holy... you can see Dougie Hamilton's effect very clearly from the right point.

then I look at their shooting percentage... which is 6.5% in all situations.

Leafs' for reference:

Go to Hockeyviz.com. Our PP shot map is very scary cool.

McBackup's revenge!

He knows our shooters' tendencies ... but they know his, too.  Prediction: the first 0-0 tie in years.

Might have happened if there wasn't a B2B situation after this game.

This is a "Loaded" week for the Leafs,
and both goalies had better be ready to go.

I pointed out he had a 5-game winning streak in the Columbus GDT and that worked out fine, didn't it Frank?

Big slate of games tonight that can change the standings.

Just win Leafs.

How do I make your karma score go negative?  Also, when did we get scoring?  I don't think mine is a fair representation of my greatness.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

How do I make your karma score go negative?

Obviously you click the "applaud" button. As in "I'm applauding how bad this is".

This feels like a let down game and then all the trade rumors of any Carolina D will be all over TSN tomorrow

Done.  Take that.

The guy rumoured was Pesce right?  3 points in 17 games.

Even last year was 19 points in 65 games.  Am I missing something about this guy?
