MotM: Reimer with the SO!
HM: Grabovski (another game in beast mode.)

Kudos to all three of Brown/Steckel/Armstrong... Great job by this newly formed 4th line.
 
MotM: MacArthur.  He's been very good lately and made a great move in tight to deke Johnson for the winner.
HM: Reimer.  James Reimer.  James Reimer, Goalkeeper.

Reims with HM to Grabovski

Why does everyone give it to reimer?  Would he be man of the match if the leafs lost 3-1?

Grabbo all the way.  He outplayed malkin head to head over two games. The guy is playing like an allstar.

I'd guess not. But then he'd have given up 3 goals instead of none and I think it's the whole not giving up any goals thing that have most people going that way.

It's funny because I had the opposite opinion. I couldn't believe there were people who didnt give that honour to Reimer. I mean seriously, a one-nothing game with a game winner by an otherwise average McArthur and you have a problem with a 25 save/shutout performance?

What if Grabbo has 3 more turnovers that led to goals? Would he still be your man of the match?

I'm referring to the fact that the penguins hit 3 posts.  So it is largely luck that those three goals were not scored. I vote mom based primarily on skill not luck.
