Apparently marincins corsi #'s are pretty good.

For what its worth.
- Fakepartofme

so ... reading between the lines - Corsi is crap?

Freddy is not having a great year- agreed.
But it's a team game, and the skaters have not done much to help.
Leafs give up a lot high scoring chances, not just shots.

Look at Bruins.
Is Rask the best G in the game today?
Is Bruins D-corps so great they make Rask look like the best G in league?
Do Bruins forwards smother all opponents attempts to score?
It's not ONE of the above - it's a combination of a bit of the 3 points above.

If Leafs D get healthy and the forwards back-check the GAA will go down.
Look at last night? Who was in net?

I look at two teams in the NHL.

Chicago and Winnipeg.

Those two teams are 30 and 31 for HDSC against. And 3rd isn't close.....

Lehner .918
Hellybuck .919


There is not much excuse for Freddy's poor play.

Rask is a Vezina candidate. Freddy is crap,.

interesting
Leafs have the lowest sv% in the conference

Also TB has a negative shot diff? also a 106 PDO

at least the Leafs were able to tread water over a terrible span of awful tendin

great. too bad they don't do playoff matches based on that.

good chance we'd have to beat 3 of pitts, wash, tb and boston to make the finals.

maybe next years these guys will learn to stop (frank)ing that dog and not throw away half a season worth of games.

When the Leafs don't turn the puck over and they defend well, Freddy gets shutouts.

No way?

Capetoast?

Is that like a Newfie French toast?

babecoke is a capetoast, got it

Yeah, something like that

How do you know this? All the favourites will win?
Last year all 4 WC teams advanced...

Didn't back read, but heard on TSN radio a potential Tyson Barrie for Troy Stetcher trade.. I think Van needs to add something
- PatC80

I don't know what acquiring Stetcher does for the Leafs right now... he's not a defensive stalwart...

so I'm guessing this is just TSN guys firing darts.

hopefully Dubas is actually trying to move Barrie.

When the 3 finalists for the Vezina are announced Tukka Rask will be one of the 3. Book it. .932 save %

- BorjeFan4Ever

Sounds like they are willing to listen to offers on Barrie, but it has to make sense.
No point in moving him for a draft pick, that leaves them razor thin on the right side.

No way?
- Garnie

One day, they will figure out how to play without the puck consistently

Lehner is a guy to go for. He proved himself as a top 3 NHL goalie the past 2 years. He did it with a very good defensive team, and a very bad one.

The funny thing is, there is a Canadian team "Carried" nightly by their goalie who bails them out, but it's Winnipeg.

I think Dubas, realizes that Barrie hasn't worked out as planned, and doesn't want to lose him for nothing. I think if he is traded, it will be for another RHD

also the Cap are 10-9-1 over the same spam with an almost identical team sv%

we're guaranteed one in the 1st round.

if we advance, one favorite doesn't win in the first round

not likely that all 4 WC's win again.

but i'm sure you'll change your view in 2 months and will be here whining about playoff match-ups.

you'd hope...

I hoped that they might have learned that lesson at the end of Game 6 of the series against the Bruins last year... apparently not.

Fans have been told for so long nothing is freddy's fault and he carries the team they can't except anything else.

Buffalo terminated BOGS's contract. There is your D-man.

hellybuck and lehner have bad games too.

but overall, they seem to both be better goalies.

helly gets $6.1M vs. $5M for freddy and lehner is probably due for a raise.

Sure. That's the playoffs, though. If THIS year's team can consistently do what they did yesterday (I have no idea; I have little faith those habits can be instilled and maintained so quickly), then they can probably stand toe-to-toe with any of them.

What they did yesterday is the new "grit". It's playing hard and winning battles. They're capable of it, but they don't like to do it. That's possibly the difference - Boston, Washington, and Pittsburgh have guys that actually LIKE to do it.

He just said there was a good chance.
