Leafs @ Panthers - Feb. 4th, 7:30pm - SN, SN 590

[Arn]

The sooner Florida can score their second goal sooner the leafs can start to play

I'm not saying it's Clarkson's fault, but somehow the team is 10x worse when he gets back in.

 

[Arn]

Nice job Clarkson.  Takes a penalty the panthers score.  He has bad karma.

It's not just bad karma. He's awful and makes players around him measurably worse.

Combining him with McClement and then having Orr and Smithson on the 4th line is like the perfect storm

 

[bustaheims]

Having trouble thinking of any redeeming qualities of having Clarkson in the lineup right now.

But, all those intangibles . . .

 

[Strangelove]

"Defensive specialist" McClement was totally unaware of the guy behind him on that breakaway

 

[azzurri63]

Gunnarson keeping close watch on the referee. I was going to post in the first period about RC calling a timeout. I guess he gave them a good talking to between periods. Like Kypreos said in the intermission why nobody is taking this team seriously. Because they get outplayed most nights. Nothing's changed. If Reimer or Bernier don't have a good night we're done.

Late to the party ... SOG 27-8?? 

And Gardiner squares off against ........  I won't say it.

HUBERDEAU

He's no McBain, though

 

[ZBBM]

skipped the 1st and went ice fishing.

I see Clarkson has brought lots of energy

I went skiing and skipped the 1st.  Should have stayed out there.

Hope_Smoke: Orr on the ice and good old Jake a Gardiner drops the gloves

 

[leafplasma]

This seriously is all kinds of atrocious.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Panthers have more shots 5 minutes into 2nd than Leafs average per game.

Not sure how the fight started, but I doubt Orr's going to go after Huberdeau...

Looks like it.

Its not nice to upset the pc crowd.

I'm sorry that our standards demand the jokes at least be clever, if not funny.

Plus, rule 6 and all: http://www.tmlfans.ca/community/index.php?topic=317.0

Isn't Orr's presence supposed to stop this stuff from happening at all to skilled players?

Pfft. Rules.

 

[bustaheims]

So, is tonight the night the Leafs finally allow 60 shots?

 

[lc9]

What an embarrassing effort.

 

[azzurri63]

Call a f'n timeout.

 

[ZBBM]

Before he got exhausted there Gleason made a couple of nice plays the blue line and then got back in good position to negate a rush.  Wish others would follow.
