  1. I recently saw my first Leafs game and one thing you can't appreciate only watching on TV is just how good Marner is. It's like he's psychic.

  2. Just want to point out: Rielly had 24:14 TOI in this game, McCabe had 24:16. Rielly looked much better this game and I think it's because of the extra 2-3 mins. Rielly's average to date for the season is around 21, which is third lowest in his career (ahead of only his rookie years). This team wants Rielly to produce, they need to play him more and they need to get him out with some of the teams best players more, not just with the 3rd and 4th line. Tonight is an example of why.

  3. I hope the Leafs win the divi and have to play us in the first round again lol. poverty Leafs

  4. Steve!!! I don't think i have ever seen Mitch play this good!! His toughness was unreal! Man if he could play like this in the playoffs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  5. Steve:
    “I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad, I’m not mad….”

    Steve was mad.

  6. Can Mitch please be in a contract year every year? He’s stepped up in every department.
    Doesn’t shoot – he now shoots.
    He doesn’t go to the net – he now goes to the net but also goes to the net with snarl and pushes and screens
    He doesn’t look up/lift his hands after a kiss and watch the puck go back up the ice – he grits it out more

  7. Woll doesn't need a conversation yet. D screened him in the pp goal, should've given him more room to see the puck. Letting in two other goals, one on a shinny-level play against Hughes? Completely acceptable.

  8. What are they gonna do with Morgan Rielly. On the ice and causing two more goals tonight. How can your supposed top defenseman be a minus 16 this year for a first place club? It is getting ridiculous. He is killing us.

  9. I think it was after Knies got shoved into the net and got hurt, with no penalty on the play (it was interference at the very least) that the ANGER ramped up. Auston was on fire after that, as was Mitch and Willy. I definitely think that was a motivating incident for the boys.

  10. Good. Then more F you goals from Mitch. Especially in the playoffs. All he does is pass, score some, again, especially in April.

  11. and the stars lost tonight- my theory that my stars and leafs cant both win if they play the same day is standing strong.

  12. I think most people miss why the streak was a big deal. THEY'VE BEEN PLAYING BAD FOR A COUPLE MONTHS NOW. Even though they are on top and been winning, they've been bad, and not ready for playoffs…..

  13. Rielly needs to be scratched. Another early goal when he's on the ice. He is -16. He's awful and turning into another gardiner

  14. Guys the habs are coming for us and I’m scared! We have to finally beat them in Saturday. They’re the hottest team in the league!!!

  15. I have to say, I am a tad worried about Joseph Wolls’ tending.
    He is a bit of a pinball machine. It seems (to me and my hubby) he doesn’t absorb the puck well, can’t control the rebounds, it really looks like he doesn’t track the puck once it pings off him.
    IDK… Do these things get better with time? Or, do we get what we’ve got.
    I’m worried about the latter. Unfortunately 😰

  16. It is very evident that when the Leafs play the Devils, they set up the game for the Devils to beat themselves. Looks like Sheldon has to Keefe it quiet after that game.
