Prob my alltime fav Leafs pair...or at least in the core 4 era.
(frank)ing love Tanev
- senstroll

They should rename the 8' in front of the Leafs net, The Tanev Zone, because he generally owns it.

He anticipates everything so well.

It was 6-2.

That`s the only stat I need.
- Atomic Wedgie

No Wedgie.

It's over. The Leafs are already golfing because reasons.

Domi continues to try to make every pass a highlight reel play. He’s trying poop where there’s nothing there. Berube needs to get him to simplify his game or sit him at some point. Can’t afford to make 3rd line scary in a bad way.
- Canada Cup

This exactly CC. 👍

Yeah and Domi's too much a liability in the top 6.

McMann Domi Robertson can be an effective line if we can get them out there with Tanev/McCabe and keep them away from the Sens' top 6.

McMann always seems to disappear down the lineup. I’d prefer him with JT and Willie, and Holmberg with Domi and Nick.

Not all that surprising given the results, but the Leafs have never gone up 2-0 in the MM/AM era

Last night was family Easter dinner. Couldn't make rhe game.

Good to hear ACC was rocking, but I`m not surprised. It always is in the playoffs.

I explained the Lalime meltdown to my nephew last night, and he looked it up on YouTube. That was fun.

It is wild how much room he had, plus all hooks that went uncalled.

91 and 88 aren't really great defensively (91 winning draws gives him the edge over Willy), so adding McMann or Domi in there doesn't help.

Holmberg is an offensive blackhole but he's a very solid two-way smart player, doesn't take penalties and is fearless for a little guy; I like him in on their line for that reason.

I don't mind different looks though: McMann could take a few shifts with them if we're down, even Domi if he's playing well, but to me, keeping all of my liabilities on one line I can shelter when I can line match makes sense to me.

And like the 4th line is really the 3rd line if that amount of ice-time keeps up, which I'm fine with, because that line can hockey at both ends of the rink.

They were very good last night. 👍

I'm just glad we can't now lose to the Sens in a sweep.

Huge weight off the boys' shoulders.

Moral victory.

How can he be a solid two-way smart player if he is an offensive blackhole?

hes a smart 1 way blackhole?

unfortunately Andres Gimenez has turned back into.... Andres Gimenez

Ya, not surprisingly

Moved him to cleanup spot and now he is changing his approach 😡
I still think he should hit leadoff, since he’s the best base stealer

Is Stolarz injured or resting? Not sure if it was discussed already?

He likes it in both holes, Wedginald.

Definitely tracks ...

Games 1-6 ...need a win = we win.
...other team needs a win = we lose.

Game 7 ..

I like our chances to change that tomorrow night.

- gravyface

That upper cut was right on the button!!!

Gaudette got what he deserved after being a douche all night.

Can't wait for Tanev to get a hold of Pinto next game, and same with McCabe getting mitts on Perron.

43 on the Sens needs a little bruising too.


Great game. 3 more to go!!!

I'd have the lineup like this ..

Knies-Matthews-Marner
Hol/McM-JT-Nylander
Lorentz-Laughton-Jarnkrok
Hol/McM-Domi-Robertson

unfortunately Andres Gimenez has turned back into.... Andres Gimenez
- senstroll

Quit moving the guy around in the line up
But none of these clowns can hit.

Resting.
Busy first game.

I'd have the lineup like this ..

Knies-Matthews-Marner
Hol/McM-JT-Nylander
Lorentz-Laughton-Jarnkrok
Hol/McM-Domi-Robertson
- The Law

Leaf lines at practice today:

Knies - Matthews - Marner
Holmberg - Tavares - Nylander
McMann - Domi - Robertson
Lorentz - Laughton - Jarnkrok

I'd leave like this and take Holmberg out for Patches when he can go.

Wtf is this greig not being suspended?!

Anybody see Luke Hughes get injured and then Markstrom injured his own guy Glass by accident in an attempt to retaliate?
