Jets @ Leafs - Jan. 8th, 7:30pm - SN, Fan 590

Was on a plane for this game.  Heard OT on the radio and then one post game show said the Jets deserved to win and another said the Leafs deserved two points. Which was it?

Just not an elite player

I appreciate the joke based on my post a few months ago. Go back to that date and make the case.

Neither. This was a pretty even match between two pretty good teams and it was always going to come down to breaks or something random like the shootout. Nobody "deserved" anything more than they got.

Ah, it was one of those games.  The kind you hope you're not on a plane for.

Timashov played under 3 minutes and had a goal. Weird.

Just wanted to say, Matthews isn?t elite.  ;D

The guy who regularly led the league in goals per minute is scoring more goals when he plays more minutes. Truly nobody saw this coming.

Minor undisclosed injury. Good things Leafs are off for 3 days. Hopefully has a chance to get better.

Another games against the Jets where the Leafs fail the eye-test.

All-situation scoring chances favoured the Leafs 30-20
All situation high danger scoring chances favoured the Leafs 14-5
All situation expected goals favoured the Leafs 2.47-1.27

Virtually all of the most telling statistical measured favoured the Leafs by a significant margin. this may have felt like a close game, but it probably shouldn't have been.

It's too bad they couldn't get the extra point cause you just know Jets will get destroyed by Boston tonight and Leafs will lose a point in the standings to them.

Andersen's two initial goals were brutal (and JT usually doesn't make that major gaffe). He'd normally stop those and we'd have a win. That 4v1 was really bad though, and so were the breakaways & 2-0 in overtime.

Great Moments:
Auston's game-tying one-timer with net empty.
Freddie's 2-on-0 overtime save with crowd roar.
