[freer]

please come out and play a full game. I know that they play better against the better teams.

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

I am sad. Leafs play tonight. My Colts play Owen Sound tonight. And the Juniors are playing Finland.

And I'm working :-(

My Bud light (is programmed for both Leafs and Team Canada right now) could be going nuts tonight, and I won't be here to see/hear it

 

[Arn]

This is going to end 8-6.

I don't know who to.

Yes. Big dilemma for me tonight as well. I figure I'll start with the Leafs game, and if they look bad, I'll switch to Canada /Finland.

 

[Zee]

5-3 Tampa.

 

[bustaheims]

This has all the earmarks of a blowout, so, I expect a hard fought, one goal game.

 

[hap_leaf]

Leafs 4-2

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Reimer starts, Holzer goes in for Robidas.

Also, looks like Drouin is in for Tampa.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

Absolute destruction, but for who?

 

[freer]

Nice pass from Kadri. Good start.

 

[ZBBM]

Kadri is skilled, no question.

 

[bustaheims]

Pretty pass, nice goal . . . but, that's the team's only shot on net so far.

 

[freer]

Guys,  I am a bias I have that. Watching the game here and the shot count is 5 to one. But IMO TO has had the majority of the play. Any one else noticing that?

I think you're confusing the Lightning for the Leafs. Puck has been in the Leafs' end a lot.

 

[bustaheims]

Great shooting percentage tonight so far.

and that is two.

 

[Deebo]

Great passing on display tonight.

 

[Stronger Than All]

JVR ruined the shooting percentage.

Yes, the few shots the Leafs have managed have found their way into the net at a good pace. They've still been chasing the puck in their end more than they should be comfortable with.
