Maple Leafs @ Capitals - Dec. 17th, 7:00pm - CBC, TSN 1050

[Arn]

Anyone but Kerfoot would have scored that the way his year is going

 

[Bullfrog]

Willy!!!!

 

[ZBBM]

Come on, put one of those in. No need to get goalied.

YES!!!!

Just what I was thinking.

 

[ZBBM]

Well this has to be one of the more fun games I've watched in a long time.

Yep, great action both ways.

 

[Bullfrog]

I hope Ovi gets two goals. Would be great to see that happen.

In Washington?s 8-2 loss.

Oh for sure. Ovi can get 5, as long as the Leafs get 6.

 

[ZBBM]

Oh come on Ilya!  Jeez

Deflected or not, a baddie.

 

[Derk]

Drat, off of Gio there.

 

[Bender]

What a crazy game thus far.

 

[Arn]

Samsonov almost got that despite the deflection.

I?m all in on a 10-8 win now.

 

[Derk]

Whoa, Ovie flubbed that shot.

 

[Bender]

Some grade A chances. Damn.

 

[Derk]

This has been a really fast and action packed period. Amazing.

Leafs to the PP.

 

[ZBBM]

Some grade A chances. Damn.

Bushels of them.  They are much sharper than at MSG (except Samsonov).

 

[ZBBM]

Uh, that's enough of THAT idea.

 

[Derk]

I would have to characterize that PP as "bumbling".

 

[Arn]

Well, that was a breathless period.

 

[ZBBM]

If the idea is to have Marner playing the role of Rielly, it kinds of makes sense on paper.  But he doesn't have a heavy enough shot to get anything started from out there.

I'll be the first to admit that I thought Sandin would really help the PP in Rielly's absence.  That hasn't happened, but I still think he's got a shot that can make it work.

 

[ZBBM]

I like Bieksa trashing OV.

 

[ZBBM]

Jesus.  3-1.  That was a nice pass.

 

[Derk]

Leafs fell asleep there. Their defensive play has left a lot to be desired tonight.
