MoTM: Kule - 4 shots, 3 hits, aggressive all game, was one of the only Leafs to have much success on the forecheck.

HM: Reimer - solid all game, didn't really have to make too many huge stops despite facing 34 shots but nevertheless kept the team in the game.
 
MoM: Reimer (33 saves)
HM: Kulemin (solid along the boards, won lots of one-on-one battles), Komarov (good hits, relentless, hustled all the time)

I was going to vote this way and I do see your point about Reimer.  But I'm going to reverse your vote, you just have to respect how calm Reimer was tonight.  He keeps that up and we'll be in decent shape most nights.
 
MotM: Reimer
HM: Komorov (I almost gave it to Kessel.) He had a strong game I think. Just so snake-bitten right now.

More than fair, and I have no doubt I'll be in the minority on this one but I just think in a game where little to nothing was generated by the forwards, Kule was the biggest exception to that and deserves the recognition of at least 1 MoTM vote  ;)

And yes I'd be very happy if Reimer can keep up that level of play, very encouraging.
 
MotM Reimer
HM Komarov

GOAT A few people in the game day thread who pissed all over the team while down 1-0. Congratulations, you are correct, the Leafs lost. It must be a joy to live with such a pessimistic outlook.
 
MotM: Reimer, and it's not even close.
HM: Komarov, because at least he looked like the one skater on the Leafs who felt the need to really work his butt off.
 
Reimer HM Komarov

Goat: Carlyle; for putting the 4th line on against the 3rd line... the only blemish to the game, causing the loss.

+1

I could have easily gone with Kulemin for HM

Frattin, Kostka, Komisarek, Kessel, JVR (& probably some I've overlooked) also had some good moments
