Leafs @ Blue Jackets - Mar. 22nd, 7:00pm - SN, Fan 590

Why did the Leafs forego putting someone in the box?

Didn't want an even shorter bench on a 5 minute kill, I imagine. I'm relatively sure you're allowed to put a player in the box at any whistle during the penalty, so, I don't think it's super unusual for teams to start a 5 minute PK without someone in the box. They just killed the whole thing in one go.

That's what I'd like to know too.

Babcock just took the blame for the extra PK time for neglecting to put someone in the box.

Why didn't Komarov pass that?

In the bad old not to far away days we would have liked to see Clarkson or the Pylon in the booth ;D

Nylander threw a hit!!!

Indeed. Matthews got the loose puck after and it led to a solid scoring chance.

Columbus are taking liberties now, would like to see someone on the 4th line step up and put an end to it.

Hyman cross checked on the numbers after winning an icing race and no call.

I'd like to see them tic tac toe it into a Martin roof job from the slot.

That Marner shift was like porn to Don Cherry.

I'll take Kadri's 30th. Works just fine for me.

 

[Al14]

Kadri scores!  4-2 Leafs!

I think that's exactly what Columbus wants  - for someone on toronto to take a retailiatory penalty and give them a pp

 

[puckinthehead]

Evil Kadri Yes!

I'm fine with whatever form the stepping up takes.

 

[ZBBM]

I think we just out-tortorella'd them.
