The Toronto Maple Leafs picked up the overtime win over the Tampa Bay Lightning but it wasn’t without some questions being raised with the goaltending. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti give their thoughts on the game including the performance of Joseph Woll coming in for Ilya Samosonov, Matthew Knies having a breakout game, Sheldon Keefe pushing the right buttons, and the William Nylander-John Tavares duo combining on key goals. Mike and Dave dive deeper on whether a goalie controversy is brewing with the Leafs after another subpar performance from Samsonov and if Woll has a chance to go on a run in net. To end the show, Mike and Dave touch on topics around the NHL including Connor McDavid’s injury, Rasmus Andersson’s suspension, decentralizing the NHL Draft and Travis Dermott wearing pride tape on his stick after the NHL-imposed ban.

The brick Woll
Go Leafs Go!!!!😊
I watched TSN postgame coverage of the embarrassing performance by Samsonov and can conclude that Joe Woll is the goalie with whom Sheldon Keefe should go barring games to be played on consecutive calendar days Eastern Time.
It is only a couple of games. Samsonov will get more rope.
The big question is; will Keefe be bright enough to leave the Kampf line alone?
Matthews at number 2. You can't be serious. In the playoffs, when it really matters, Matthews isn't top twenty.
Andersson, yea it was a questionable hit, but Laine needs to keep his head up. The rules can't be crafted and enforced to reward players for putting themselves in a bad position. Two or three seems more reasonable.
Draft, don't really care how they do it.
Here is the problem with pride events for the league. People on the political left went insane when Provorov refused to take part. If those people, especially those so-called journalists, had accepted and respected his position, they would still have pride events. Instead they acted like lunatics and the NHL has an obligation to protect their players for that sort of trash. As for Dermott's beliefs, religious' freedom is constitutionally protected. Political views are not. Making it voluntary hurts people because lunatics on the left will demand it of everyone and will harass people who choose not to take part. The best solution for the League is to make it a penalty. Two minutes for an equipment violation.
Did you guys know the leafs have now played 4 straight overtime games in TB and JT has scored the last two winners
Highlights from the Game Knies was 🔥 great to see Domi get going just need to play him. Willy and JT look amazing together.Woll robbed that game
They have no defense you can't blame Sammy for all of them. The defense is nowhere to be found completely out of position
Actually, Knies stopped the puck with his skate first , than shot it from his knees! Come on guys, get your shit together
