Sabres vs. Maple Leafs - Dec. 21st, 7:00pm - SN, Fan 590

Ok a good save. But I don't wanna see anymore hands thrown up in the air.

He does need a goalie shrink.

He needs a goalie guru

If we are in in to win it then you play some cards early
Hildabeast is 6?8? and cool as a cucumber
Give him a game and let?s see if he is the real deal
Can?t hurt
And maybe a revelation
To watch another moment of Sammy is beyond comprehension

Hey look out goalie made some saves....

Also holy hell the defensive coverage is awful.  You aren't even cheating for good offensive chances

It's almost like they don't give a shit anymore tonight. Weren't getting any saves so why bother...bad goals really kill a team.

So does bad positioning.  The Leafs defensive structure has been fine the last month.  The games that have looked the worst have been with Sammy in net.  His chaos leads to scrambled defense and the Leafs don't handle that well.

Good point

I'm all for Hildeby getting some NHL action at this point.

Only if absolutely necessary.  He needs to keep playing for the Marlies.

Samsonov is safe until at least Dec 28th

Afraid to make a mistake..
Can't wait to hear Kypreos pat himself on the back saying I told ya to pull him...

 

[bustaheims]

Leafs never play well in Buffalo.

Nope. Doesn?t matter how good either team is, Leafs struggle. 34-66-6-6 all time. It?s bonkers.

I don't agree with Kypreos frequently but here I am.

That was a pretty good intermission discussion.  There aren't any clear answers.

Too many noisy fans cheering for them. Feels weird and off putting.

This has the look to me of yet another example of the Leafs thinking they just have to show up to win a game. Very careless with the puck, loose defensive play and bad goaltending as the cherry on top. They may well score a bunch of goals in the 3rd to make it a game or even win, but as long as they keep doing this I believe it shows they have not learned any lessons over the years. Not a mature group.

I'm with Bourne and EF...they ride this out. There aren't many options out there.  Hildeby doesn't come up until it's absolutely necessary.

Clear as mud lol

 

[L K]

Man the refs get in the way of the play behind the net a lot

 

[ZBBM]

That's the first time I've heard Knies' name called.

 

[herman]

McCabe just big boyed that PK shift.

 

[bustaheims]

Holding the stick not a penalty anymore? I swear, it?s rampant across the league and barely ever called.

 

[Bender]

Nylander buzzing but we're running out of time.

 

[herman]

Would enjoy this game way more if Nylander buried that

 

[L K]

The dump in turnovers drive me nuts.  Puck into the corner.  Immediately taken by Buffalo and back out of the zone.  It's not working.  Stop doing it

 

[Bender]

This is a wake up call for this team. They should all be embarrassed.
