Two straight games the Leafs have had A Western Confrence team up on the ropes leading twice In Vancouver and the latest episode was last nights 3-0 lead blowen to a struggling Coyotes team.
Everything was looking great when the Leafs got out to a Three goal lead and one of them coming from a shorthanded defense core. Young Carl ColaIacovo had a goal and an assist in the game but still managed to finish the game at -1.
It would be very easy for me to make sense of this by bring up the absence of the Leafs two Top Scorers but im NOT going to because of players like Khavanov and klee. Berg and Kaberle (who was they only Defenseman to seem to have play with a bit of passion.)
The experince was there on the blue line from those guys and they just didn't step up.
Am I pissed cause we lost no, but I expected better from are blue line and squandering a 3 goal lead is not exceptible.
Quinn got his message threw about the importance of the powerplay and the leafs reacted with Three Powerplay Goals. The Powerplay was great!
5 on 5 the Leafs got outworked again and it was sick.
I have cracked the code on why Jeff O' Niell isnt scoring.Jeff thrives in and around the net. A mastery of the Gabage goal . Latley I looked for Jeffy In and around the net and he has been absent. well the first thing that comes to mind is that he is scared but why? Jeff has been in and around the net for 8 years and with the new rules you would think he would fit in niceley but Jeff Hasn't been there . Jeff started the season red hot but is ice cold.
Go to the Net Jeffy Cause im not Jumping off this "Rag Wagon" You are my Target for now next is Mats
We were all caught off guard in regards to the tucker Injury. Looks Like Tuckers ribs were Alot worst than we all thought. I have Had no word on what went wrong or when he will be back. Leafs Need Tucker Back.
