I really like this goal. You can see a lot of the little skills work stuff Marner works on (edges, playing pucks in motion, baiting the goalie) pay off here.

Justin Holl stretch pass probably doesn?t get the + for the goal he isn?t even on the ice for.
 
Wow Mike Smith
But also of course head down Mikheyev shoots for the middle of the net on a 2-0

Refs let the Leafs get away with a trip to allow that breakaway
 
Matthews has better velocity on his shot but he?s still not lifting sticks as well to steal pucks
 
Glad Hutch is stopping things now, but man I'm scared every time the puck comes his way. He fights the position the whole time.
 
So our powerplay sucks right now...so why not overload and put Nylander on the top unit

I like Simmonds but he hasn?t exactly lit the world on fire since coming back

Also again with the drop passes where everyone stands at the blue line.  So 8 skaters all clogging up the zone entry.  It?s just such a dumb strategy that isn?t working.

I think the concept of Simmonds is good but yeah.

It won't matter unless he has the puck. Marner and Rielly pass it way too slow and neither are really a threat to shoot much.

Simmonds isn't in game shape anymore. It's going to take him some time. Can't miss 6 weeks or so and be in game shape.
 
Nothing like crosschecking a guy in the back into the boards right in front of the ref while also being interference

I wonder how many games this year there have been where we got more PPs than the opponent.
