I believe it

That's a very polite way of saying shoved from behind into the boards.

I didn't want to rile up both Flames fans

Has Roger explained how the Leafs almost lost two games in a row because of Freddy, yet?
- GreatGigInTheSky

could be using an alt to post as he might be to embarrassed to post his views.

I want the Leafs to finish 1st in the North, mostly for bragging rights.

They need to show continual growth in their game. They can't show fragility like they did vs Ottawa, and they have to close out games. They haven't been doing a bad job of it so far, but theres always room for improvement. They're dealing with pretty significant injuries with Freddy and Campbell being out, so its nice to see that they can win without them.

Keefe didnt seem all that impressed with the past couple games, he seems annoyed. He knows what the issues are and seems frustrated with the lack of progress with some players.

I swear to goodness, I want them to win the President's Trophy, so we have a regular stream of trolls come in here to tell us it doesn't count.

Jimmy Tanner always said the President's trophy winner is the real best team in the NHL. Stanley Cup champion is just a random team who gets lucky for 2 months.

Willies man was the dude on left defense, was he supposed to be in 2 places at once?

Willy got a couple goals after being the reason Calgary scored to almost win the game

Keefe wasnt thrilled with him after the game.

Willy is going to score, its what he does without the puck thats an issue.

At least 3 people messed up on that goal, including Willie

Really, it’s all about the Wedgie poll. I have them first to clinch. THAT’S ALL THAT MATTERS

Yep.. But when there's a guy standing all alone in front of the net like that you don't just stand there behind him. Its like he has no defensive instincts. He barely even tried.

Shut up

Sorry, Mr. Thornton

watched it many times. There was lots of time for WN to cover Mang. Just poor defensive coverage, he's always been bad with that.

Its not surprising by any means.

But his man was the point man, they have 2 defense and a centre to cover the guys down low.

On that play, it seemed like Nylander did not react quickly enough. In the defensive zone, you got to be more aware of what's going on around you.

The NHL used to.

You're right, it wasn't his man. In my opinion, Nylander's mistake was not reacting quickly enough to the play.

He was 3 feet from a wide open man in front of the net for 3 seconds.

No point in us arguing about it, Keefe was clearly unimpressed with him after the game.

Go argue with him.

wow, another one understanding how hockey works - that makes it 2

It's not like Willy was facing the defenseman and couldn't see the play developing.. I like Nylander a lot, but that goal against was partially his fault.

Once he saw that Engvall and the defense was out of position, he should have been quicker to react.

The NHL used to.
