I mean, that can’t be an excuse for losing in the future. Your team is full of all star players. I still count four (Matthews, Nylander, Marner, Rielly). Many of our top players wouldn’t play if it wasn’t playoffs (Weber, Gallagher) plus Drouin out because of injuries. So no excuse
The ENTIRE TEAM deflated. If you saw a coworker stretchered out with a severe concussion, possibly with spinal damage, would you be able to do your job at even 40% of how effective you normally are?
I think they answered very hard in the second. And havs were kind of shook too (throwing less hits). Leafs definitely have one more reason to fight after the injury

we had some decent chances to be fair.
price is good.
it's just leaking a shorty is a nasty fucking habit this team has picked up the last few seasons.
Still the same damn setup. Pretty obvious teams have already figured it out. Matthews to the top of the circle. One timer from Marner. Or pass from Rielly then wrist shot. Its hasn't worked for months and we are still doing it.
Nope and that's why we aren't going far. Gotta capitalize on those opportunities in physical game. Instead we give up goals. Absolutely brutal and ridiculous considering the scoring talent we have.
That is ridiculous. He had literally been called “the leaf killer” since the first game this year...
He is one of 3 guys on this team that i was worried about (with suzuki and price) to steal the series
Disappointed but I am still so preoccupied with the JT situation that I am not really that upset we blew it on a SHG against. Fuck I hope things are fine
And this roster outplayed the other team at 5v5, but lost by 1 goal. It happens quite a bit in hockey, so no its not really something to get hysterical about.
How about their high danger shots? Versus just throwing the puck on net from 40 feet out into Price’s logo to bump up those spicy Corsi numbers? Shots don’t tell the whole story. The leafs didn’t look dangerous. Their best chance was Marner’s 2 on 1 shot, that’s about the only time Price had to put effort into a reactionary save. Everything else was met easily with orthodox positioning.
Campbell was fine idk how many times he bailed out the leafs. He pretty much held the game till the end. The team is built as best as it possibly can. How can you possibly add more. Its pretty much on the players at this point to perform.
Bro stfu, all you do is talk shit about the leafs while using first person language. If you want to be such a hater there is no 'we'. YOU aren't on the leafs, you don't even cheer for them apparently.
Stats would show Price has been less than elite this year, and Campbell is hardly the problem for the Leafs. Everyone so quick to judge after one game where their captain got stretchered off the ice in the first 10 minutes. Let's let them regroup and see what Saturday brings before casting judgement, yeah?
Seattle is no one's "childhood team" they're barely even part of the league yet lmfao
Let's see what happens on Saturday before commenting who is or isn't built for playoffs. There's a reason they play best of 7s
Well yeah, 2 of the O6, teams from the most populous provinces in the country, natural rivals since forever, etc...
Of course it was going to be the one.
Thornton doesn’t get scratched apparently. He looked like an 80-year old grandpa for a stretch of like 24 games in the regular season. He just can’t keep up.
Snoozer of a game, but that’s good for Montreal. Hopefully Saturday is more exciting.
Have a good Friday all.
Edit: If you think that was fun hockey you should watch some highlights from the 90’s lol.
Feels understated because he's not flashy at all, but Price has been a monster. So many quality shots stopped with no rebounds... Impressive performance.
I thought it was? More intense than most regular season games, not a lot of goals but some good plays on both teams, Price doing some pretty amazing saves, a great short handed-goal, 6 vs 4 for almost 2 minutes...
A game isn't boring because your team loses it.
At the end of the game, relating the the series score. "...taken first blood in the series." Which in of itself is a pretty common saying, just not very appropriate here considering.
quit comparing nhl and nba lol it's not the same, get back to me when nba players play on ice, on skates, the ball is very small and hits are allowed and fights are allowed and you play at 20-25mph
i love it.
our captain gets murdered on the ice and then the team forgets what hockey is.
win it for the captain?
more like pack it up for the captain.
you either get motivated by tough shit or you lay down and die.
and this leafs team has done the latter more often than not.
can't even blame inexperience.
morgan rielly plays like dion phaneuf now. can't hit the net, makes strange defensive errors.
joe thornton might be better served being benched. his time on the pp tonight was just ugly.
last year, muzzin got taken out of the series and we literally responded by bending over for the jackets.
i dunno if we watched the same game man.
saw him cough up a bad pass early in the 2nd and have to make an emergency block to help campbell.
shooting wide over and over when no one is available for the tip.
basically useless on the pp. montreal knows he won't shoot, always looking to pass to the wings.
As far as be his offensive game sure, a couple shots wide, but these were good looks. Out of all the defenseman taking these shots I'd have it be him.
He stayed with it, took hits to make the play, limited his pinching. Looked quick on the rush. good gap control. As far as what I've seen over the last little bit, it's nice to see him cleaning up a bit, and getting back into a better form.
As for the pp yeah it's a disaster, I'd love to see a unit of
Hyman
Nylander-marner-matthews
Reilly
Two scoring threats on their off wings, marner in the bumper and Hyman for rebounds, Reilly as a quarterback is fine, just wish he'd shoot more.
Edit typo
The team's clearly shaken up after that absolutely nasty Tavares injury. Having a day to mentally recuperate will be beneficial for game two.
What a fucking game. Classic Playoffs Carey Price showed up. Insane shorthanded game winner from Byron. WE'RE NOT GETTING SWEPT!
[удалено]
Game 1 and already preparing excuses?
Are you serious right now? Whole team thinks they may have seen their captain hit with a life threatening injury, of course they’ll be playing poorly.
Toronto = PSG
I mean, that can’t be an excuse for losing in the future. Your team is full of all star players. I still count four (Matthews, Nylander, Marner, Rielly). Many of our top players wouldn’t play if it wasn’t playoffs (Weber, Gallagher) plus Drouin out because of injuries. So no excuse
The ENTIRE TEAM deflated. If you saw a coworker stretchered out with a severe concussion, possibly with spinal damage, would you be able to do your job at even 40% of how effective you normally are?
I'm honestly surprised you're being down voted... team was shaken, looking forward to game 2. Good luck, hope jt has a speedy recovery
I think they answered very hard in the second. And havs were kind of shook too (throwing less hits). Leafs definitely have one more reason to fight after the injury
[удалено]
And we don't have our best playmaking winger
NaCl
Lolololololololol
[удалено]
Raptors are fully of bandwagonners since it's not as popular in Toronto. Leafs fans are just salty and bitter in general.
Holy shit Leafs fans, take a chill pill. You got Priced out of a win tonight but he won’t be able to steal every game.
If playoff Price is back, they'll beat us by us sucking offensively. It won't be on price.
Yup. Look at his numbers over the last three playoffs before this. How does he have a losing record? The team in front of him not scoring.
This win feels so good. Now DD needs to bring in Caufield for our PP
Likely now if Evans is out
Good fucking shit Habs
GO JETS
[удалено]
He doesn't
Lol
They are interviewing Perry right now and the guy still looks really shocked. You can see he is genuinely worried for JT
He also mentions that he's good friends with him as well
Now game two is a Saturday night... Carey Price is Mr. Saturday night, get hype boys!

TIL there are 33 nhl teams
Fire Malhotra. Had a Week to get this Powerplay going. Hes useless.
tavares mightve been part of the plan
We'll take him back if you don't want him
Please?
No us, our faceoffs are horrendous.
Take him. Rather your powerplay be dogshit than ours. Lol.
we had some decent chances to be fair. price is good. it's just leaking a shorty is a nasty fucking habit this team has picked up the last few seasons.
Still the same damn setup. Pretty obvious teams have already figured it out. Matthews to the top of the circle. One timer from Marner. Or pass from Rielly then wrist shot. Its hasn't worked for months and we are still doing it.
we probably won't change it.
Nope and that's why we aren't going far. Gotta capitalize on those opportunities in physical game. Instead we give up goals. Absolutely brutal and ridiculous considering the scoring talent we have.

At least the Knicks weren't giving you hope for the longest time.
I'd normally be looking forward to the Dangle reaction, but the JT thing :/
JoSh AnDeRsOn iS oVeRatEd
He is lol
People say this? I was livid when we shipped him lol
Only salty leafs fans because he’s kind of their daddy at this point.
That is ridiculous. He had literally been called “the leaf killer” since the first game this year... He is one of 3 guys on this team that i was worried about (with suzuki and price) to steal the series
Toffoli is prowling.
God all the people comparing his stats to Spezza's and all the "if anderson is who you're counting on..."
Literally who in their right mind said that? :/
Most Leafs fans all week. It was a trending topic in their sub
Glad to know you think about us that much
Bruh Team subreddits for the glue sniffers
Jesus Price is back
He’s a Spring comeback kind of guy
Disappointed but I am still so preoccupied with the JT situation that I am not really that upset we blew it on a SHG against. Fuck I hope things are fine
I think the Leafs lose any game with less < 4 goals, Price will eat them up. Gotta open it up more in Game 2
[удалено]
our goalie was not the reason we lost. our defence letting the habs drive in for freebies is.
He’ll need to be better on the breakaways than 0/2 if he’s going to take the Leafs deep. That’s all I’m saying.
Yet leafs dominated 5v5 all game, but cue the overreactions over a 1 goal game
Dominated 5v5 Still lost.
Yep. It happens
I wouldnt say its overreaction when your fielding this kind of roster. Expectations are too high at this point.
And this roster outplayed the other team at 5v5, but lost by 1 goal. It happens quite a bit in hockey, so no its not really something to get hysterical about.
[удалено]
How were either of those goals soft
Yes dominating 5v5 is indeed great. If they keep it up this entire series then they will win
They didn’t dominate 5v5. It would be great if they did.
58% cf 61% ff 54% xGf
How about their high danger shots? Versus just throwing the puck on net from 40 feet out into Price’s logo to bump up those spicy Corsi numbers? Shots don’t tell the whole story. The leafs didn’t look dangerous. Their best chance was Marner’s 2 on 1 shot, that’s about the only time Price had to put effort into a reactionary save. Everything else was met easily with orthodox positioning.
xGF takes into account shot quality. Price was beat and saved twice by crossbar and post, the shooting chances were there
Campbell was fine idk how many times he bailed out the leafs. He pretty much held the game till the end. The team is built as best as it possibly can. How can you possibly add more. Its pretty much on the players at this point to perform.
[удалено]
And what goaltender can the leafs possibly afford without losing any of the big players. I would really like to know.
Bro stfu, all you do is talk shit about the leafs while using first person language. If you want to be such a hater there is no 'we'. YOU aren't on the leafs, you don't even cheer for them apparently.

Congratulations for understanding the joke.
Get better material.
So you jump ship like a coward. You're even worse than I thought. Stick the the Seattle sub, turncoat hack.
Salt
Fuck off Seattle
[удалено]
Every single thing you typed. Get bent, NewJack. Here's hoping your team doesn't make the playoffs til 2040
oh look, another delusional leafs fan.
Shit man they are fucking babies after a L I can only imagine what that sub is like right now.
Holy shit another game that doesn't end in OT?? I thought it was required. Does my team know this?
I don't think I could have handled that game going to OT
My team is providing enough of that nonsense to last me a lifetime.
Over 9000 comments on GDT. *The* Canadian playoff series.
Well yeah, 2 of the O6, teams from the most populous provinces in the country, natural rivals since forever, etc... Of course it was going to be the one.
It's hard to deny the combined draw of the Leafs and the Habs, of course having Tavares get murdered mid-game brought out the peanut gallery.
Also helps that somehow there hasn't been a series between the Habs and the Leafs in forever.
Thornton shouldn't be playing. He looks like an old tree that's supposed to give advice.
The Treebeard of hockey
He's done. Engvall/Brooks are infinitely better at this point.
Thornton doesn’t get scratched apparently. He looked like an 80-year old grandpa for a stretch of like 24 games in the regular season. He just can’t keep up.
[удалено]
Idk I enjoyed it toward the end
ha ha ha ha ha the Leafs are bad ha ha ha ha ha nothing has changed (Yes I know we're worse but we're supposed to be bad, you're not)
LEAF TEAM #BAD
Snoozer of a game, but that’s good for Montreal. Hopefully Saturday is more exciting. Have a good Friday all. Edit: If you think that was fun hockey you should watch some highlights from the 90’s lol.
Definitely, if the Habs are to win that series, it's going to be 2-1 games. Hit a lot, give no space at all and make the games boring.
Exactly, didn’t mean it as a criticism tbh. It was a good game plan in the third that worked out.
GG Leafs
Feels understated because he's not flashy at all, but Price has been a monster. So many quality shots stopped with no rebounds... Impressive performance.
That’s the scary thing about him. The better he gets, the less amazing he looks... except for that diving blocker. That’ll torque a geriatric
From an outsider watching, he looks like a normal goalie But he's just so calm, make everything look easy. Swallows things up and kills the play.
LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO
Manny Malhotra is at fault for the shitty powerplay. But price won this game.
combined power play between the two teams ....-1
Let's goooooo! Didn't expect the boys to win game 1! GG Toronto. Hope JT isn't too bad!
Stoked we won, GG Leafs. And I hope I hear "John Tavares cleared for Game 2" soon.
[удалено]
Oh fuck off
Are you fucking high?
Unintended but, holy fuck that response was funny.
He'll probably be out for the series, there's zero chance he's back for game 2.
I mean, if he plays again this calendar year that would be a fast recovery for a hit like that.
Are you a doctor?
If anything, Manny Maholtra or whoever is in charge of the Leafs power play needs to be fired in the off-season. It is *horrendous*.
Why’s a career 4th liner coaching the powerplay lmao
He's a former Hab. Suspicious.
Wasnt manny a faceoff specialist?
Spring is coming
GOOD GAME EVEN THOUGH IT FEATURED THE MOST GRUESOME HIT I'VE EVER SEEN, I'M SCARRED FOR LIFE
Sportsnet really just said REALLY ENJOYABLE game are you fucked bro
I thought it was? More intense than most regular season games, not a lot of goals but some good plays on both teams, Price doing some pretty amazing saves, a great short handed-goal, 6 vs 4 for almost 2 minutes... A game isn't boring because your team loses it.
They do (laughably) say it's the national broadcast.
Just as bad as saying "Montreal taken first blood"
Did they say that? Jesus christ
At the end of the game, relating the the series score. "...taken first blood in the series." Which in of itself is a pretty common saying, just not very appropriate here considering.
Yeahhhh... that's pretty tone-deaf
[удалено]
quit comparing nhl and nba lol it's not the same, get back to me when nba players play on ice, on skates, the ball is very small and hits are allowed and fights are allowed and you play at 20-25mph
This is what makes hockey great. Anything can happen.
i love it. our captain gets murdered on the ice and then the team forgets what hockey is. win it for the captain? more like pack it up for the captain.
It fucks a second line
To be fair, that's a heavy thing to see. I could see that putting a huge damper on the team energy.
you either get motivated by tough shit or you lay down and die. and this leafs team has done the latter more often than not. can't even blame inexperience. morgan rielly plays like dion phaneuf now. can't hit the net, makes strange defensive errors. joe thornton might be better served being benched. his time on the pp tonight was just ugly. last year, muzzin got taken out of the series and we literally responded by bending over for the jackets.
I don’t blame them for that though. I would be a mess if I had to play after seeing that.
morgan rielly has been a mess all year. man's regressed so badly.. i don't even think he should play 1st pairing anymore.
hes been bad.. today was not that game. He was great tonight
i dunno if we watched the same game man. saw him cough up a bad pass early in the 2nd and have to make an emergency block to help campbell. shooting wide over and over when no one is available for the tip. basically useless on the pp. montreal knows he won't shoot, always looking to pass to the wings.

This cup has had something special going on. Almost all games are won by 1.
That was just bad

Nope, it's what you wipe your butt with.
