Leafs @ Penguins - Feb. 17th, 7:00pm - SN, TSN 1050

[herman]

Hanging by a thread but tied with the champs that are now finally ramping back up to form.

 

[Chris]

Scored on a change up there! PP looked much better.

 

[ZBBM]

Too many turnovers, and too many second chances for the champs.  Still, we seem to be a team now that can play with anyone in the league.

 

[ZBBM]

JFJ.  Seattle.  The bluest skies you've ever seen!

Except Boston, apparently. Hopefully that last game against them was an anomaly.

I'm actually encouraged by the game tonight. Sure, still problems in the d-zone but part of that is just bad decisions with the puck (Gardiner in particular but not only him), and part is the offensive firepower that Pitt has. On the other hand, Matthews could easily have had 2 or even 3 goals, most nights he probably pots one of those.

Ya I laughed when I heard that. Just goes to show you what it takes to keep some sort of job in this league. Most guys on this forum could make a better GM.

Matthews got cross checked twice on that shift with no calls.

Still an old boys' club to an extent.  Meanwhile, Dubas waits patiently.

We stink dudes..

 

[ZBBM]

Oooh not good.

 

[Strangelove]

The fourth line has gotten destroyed tonight. Every shift in their own end.

 

[Al14]

We stink!

    Pens score! Pens 4 - Leafs 3

    Andersen not ready.

    Go Leafs Go!
   

 

[lc9]

Not all Andersons fault tonight, but he hasn't been sharp. Really no one has on defense.

 

[herman]

Oh no

 

[ZBBM]

Really, that should have been a penalty.

 

[Strangelove]

Truly awful non call. What the hell is that?

 

[AvroArrow]

Hope Hyman's ok... Head slams into the boards, then gets sandwiched by Maata.

 

[L K]

It's a trip AND Maata puts a push into Hyman's back before either player had touched the puck.  Call it a push from behind/boarding.  Call it a trip.  Call it interference.  Nope, no penalty.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

That should have been 5 and the game and the refs are probably like "well he said sorry!". Brutal.

 

[herman]

So many near miss tap ins.
