Leafs @ Lightning - Dec. 29th, 7:30pm - SNO, Fan 590

Guys, this is just a solid road game.  Tied 2-2 midway through the 2nd.

Two goal posts in the past 5 mins

Doesn't change the fact they've played like hot garbage all game.

 

[ZBBM]

Our defense is just bad all the way round.  That is all.

 

[BrownRolo]

How many years have the Leafs been getting outshot by double? Even Buffalo and Edmoonton don't get outshit this bad on a continuous basis. Gotta change something.

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

I didn't see anything on the Gardiner penalty. If that was a penalty then the play there with Bozak was a trip.

To be fair though, it's hard to outshit Buffalo and Edmonton.

Remember when the Leafs were a fast team?  What happened to that.

Haha yeah typo. Yet suitable, no?

The NHL really has to have a word with whoever is counting the shots in Florida. They are depressingly accurate.

Leafs getting outshot 3:1.

I stopped watching after the 1st. Might tune back in for the 3rd. Blew the 2-0 lead though huh? Shocking.

Gotta have the puck to use your speed effectively.

[Joe S.]

Does Kessel still play for the leafs?

 

[Chev-boyar-sky]

At this point, you can't even blame the players anymore (well you can but....) as that's already happened 5+ times this season.

The options as I see them:

Trade one of Gardiner or Lupul
Fire Carlyle.

I know what I'd choose.

Well it comes down to who wants the game more. Neither team is playing very well defensively, and soft calls IMO against us. We need just one of the defense men to clear the front of the net. Franson is a big guy and cant clear out a small. and Gardiner is just Gardiner non physical.

Gudas just got Clarkson's skate to the neck.  Lucky.

Why can't they skate harder? Maybe Carlyle can tell them to up the work ethic. Might work?

Phaneuf walked around by Callahan there.

Dion appears to have gone with the cement skates tonight
