Leafs @ Blues - Feb. 2nd, 9:00pm - TSN4, Fan 590

On that second goal Polak sure got pushed off the puck easily...I thought POlak was supposed to be strong in the corners.

Games in hand are nice to have.

If you aren't sucking.

 

[ZBBM]

IF YOU AREN'T SUCKING.

 

[princedpw]

teams never win with sub .800 save percentage ... what is up?

 

[dekedastardly]

Maybe some of these guys need healthy scratched a couple games.

Is it permissible to bag skate them during the 2nd intermission?

And -- welcome to the board.

 

[harps64]

A sad effort to be sure. Soft and sloppy.

I'm sure they'll get it. Babcock is fuming. And thanks. I used to frequent some years ago under a different handle.

 

[dekedastardly]

Has Matt Martin got the stones to have a go with Reeves? After what he just did to Komarov, I hope so

 

[Bill_Berg]

blah

 

[barney_rebel]

We stink, BTW

 

[ZBBM]

Three crap games in a row.

You have to wonder if the team is hitting a bit of a wall.  Now that the PP has come back to earth, all of a sudden not looking so potent.

 

[rdowdall]

Twice the Blues have come back on the Leafs down 5-1 with 5 minutes left in the game.  Lets hope the Leafs can return the favour tonight.

 

[hockeyfan1]

No need to panic.  The Leafs just need to pull themselves up from this hump and kickstart again on a positive with a win or two.  Nothing like a losing streak to sap a (young) team's confidence.  Somehow, Babcock won't let this (slump) last long.

St. Louis Blues general manager Doug Armstrong made a fascinating point about why his team is flailing away in the NHL?s Central Division this season. According to Armstrong, the Blues have lost all sense of team identity and have morphed into a collection of ?independent contractors.?

have they considered implementing a no-facial-hair policy?

They really ought to. Look how much better Polak is now.

And the Blues have 0 rookie goals, while we have 70, all thanks to the lack of facial hair.

 

[Bullfrog]

You can't deny the correlation.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

Delighted to have Ben Smith back.

...

Ahem. They have 2 rookie goals. One from Wade Megan, and one from Brad Hunt (who, despite being 28, qualifies as a rookie, as he hadn't played 25 NHL games before the start of this season).

Those are fake names, busta. Fake names. I think that's a disgrace, but that's the way stats are. Very unfortunate.
