That was pretty sweet.

Watching this game, it's pretty clear why they're both at the bottom of the standings.

Leivo can certainly shoot the puck.

 

[Redleaf]

Leivo will have a hip or back issue an hour before the next game. Watch for it. 

 

[ZBBM]

Leivo can certainly shoot the puck.

So what do people think?  Does he stick, or is he Jeremy Williams all over again?

I'd like to see him in an extended stretch of games. Of course, that didn't work out so well for Jeremy Williams.

 

[herman]

How does 4.5M over 3 years for Leivo sound?

 

[CarltonTheBear]

I like Arcobello, but I'll never forgive him for not converting that Rielly pass and robbing Morgan of an assist.

These teams are like the polar opposites of each other. The Leafs have very little skill in the lineup, but a lot of structure in their game. The Oilers have a lot of skill in the lineup, but very little structure in their game.

How is Edmonton still this bad? Good god.

Busta, we don't agree very often, but I was just about to post the exact same post. Which wins out tonight ,structure or talent?

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Froese and Greening on the powerplay, that's just funny.

 

[ZBBM]

Druken played more than 5 games for the Leafs .... ?

Based on the play this period . . . I honestly have no idea. The Leafs look like they could have the puck in the Oilers' zone all night and not convert. The Oilers could barely spend any time in the offensive zone and score 6. It's a coin-flip.

Too many Kessels. Not enough Komarovs.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

Columbus picks up 2 points tonight.

 

[herman]

I haven't seen Button in awhile. I now understand all those steel wool comments.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

What on earth does making the playoffs have to do with winning the Norris trophy?

 

[ZBBM]

I don't care if Marchand scores 100+26, he still sucks, intrinsically.

 

[herman]

I'm scared we might win

But Leivo is magically not playing anymore.
