Truculence is not dead in hockey. And there is no fancy 'advanced stat' to measure it. There is only manning up. I'm very, very happy to see this team starting to show some spine as a group. And not just in standing up for each other, but in not letting a game like last night get away. They found a way to win, instead of found a way to lose.

Speaking of the "T" word, it was kinda amusing watching red tie Burkie cheer so hard for the Flames in his 'analysis' last night.

Far from being a Leafs fan but +1 to Muzzin...

Somebody in LA should be happy this morning!!!

I'm sure his old buddy Doughty was pretty about it yeah.

This being said, I can only see this thing escalate during the season.

Leafs play the Flames only what.... 6 more times this year?

Tkachuk will cheap shot Marner or Nylander next game. Guaranteed.

Yup.

That's what I'm afraid of.

And then we go after their water bottles.

Yup.

That's what I'm afraid of.
- Scabeh

I'm not afraid

The Muzzin move was still the greatest move of all time

Can we extend him again?

Tkachuk will cheap shot Marner or Nylander next game. Guaranteed.
- AdamFrench

He’s really close with Matthews and marner. I don’t think there will be a cheap shot against either of them.

I could probably see nylander or Tavares though.

I think that in the state Tkachuk was in (or will be in) he might not even recognize which player to avoid / target...

- AdamFrench

That would be so expected....

Dirtbag knee drop on prone goalie, get the puck flipped at you and utterly meltdown then avoid the guy that did that and target small guy who wasn't involved.

If that happens his dbag tag and coward turtle tag will grow even more.

And then we can watch muzzin, bogo and simmonds line up to beat the breaks off the tool.

Hilarious bit of Leafs hate in the Mirtle tweet thread:

James Mirtle
@mirtle
Auston Matthews is now on pace for 35 goals this season in just 55 games.

I say he does it.

(That's a 53-goal pace in an 82 game season, for those curious. So it's pretty, pretty good.)

He'll never crack 50 in a season. Just not in that league of players

and
@mirtle
he was at 47 in 70 last season, give him a few more games and he would’ve.

If he does anything other than deal directly with Muzzin he will be seen as a complete wimp. Muzzin challenged him directly. He can’t retaliate against someone else.

I'm not afraid

Despite my location still being completely ridiculous.

I think Muzzin might be the most important defenseman for the Leafs to stabilize the whole defense.

- Scabeh

There are five other Canadian teams that hate Tkachuk.

Want to bet a beer somebody flips a puck at him in the next three weeks?

The temper tantrum is going to make his life a little more difficult, as opposing players now know they can out-rat the rat.

It’s the beard. Leafs have a solid beard on each pairing.
