Yep, right on the money there.
- LeafMan

even tho it didnt pan out points wise.. i thought kuli was skating better than i've seen in awhile as well

Indeed.

Franson probably best ever game in blue and white.

to quote ek "more to come ......."

i hope.

Trade him.

That didnt take long

The sad irony is that Frattin would still be with the Marlies if not for Lupul's injury.
Was RC going to even give him a chance? Boy he be wrong. 3 point game the other night, 2 goals tonight, HOLY MACKINAWWWWWWWW
- GCHonda

It's not irony but it is sad.

Absolutely no way McClement should be on the 2nd line ahead of Frattin.

4th line centers belong on the 4th line.
- Two_For_Truth

He's no Robbie Earl or John Mitchell. That's for sure.

McClement did good work tonight, Franson and Kessel looked good, Reimer solid

It's easy to have more shots when you're on the Jason Blake shooting regime.
- Two_For_Truth

Great finish and I love that we got the win so I don't want to be a negative nancy but omg that (frank)ing Bozak needs to go. What a lackadaisical p.o.s. Just floats around and while Kessel and JVR are just dog tired from fighting for the puck in the offensive zone and defensive zone. Bozak? Fresh as a daisy looking for a breakaway pass.

I can't stand that guy.

I'd be worried if he wasn't getting chances but he is. He's averaging more shots a game now than he did last year.
- daeth

He's fading out while taking his shots, easy read. There's no snap to his shot when he fades out.

lol Buffalo fans blaming Miller....so it's not just Leaf fans!

it worked out just fine.
- Dozzer

McClement should not be getting more ice time or top-six minutes over Frattin or even Kadri for that matter.

Remember what we said about veterans taking a back seat?

Hey Sabres how does our ass look

I was not looking forward to the shoot-out ....

is this postable?
- dmnted

That's the funniest SNL sketch in probably 10 years.

I hope Franson can build some confidence from this game and keep this kind of play going. Not to say he's going to get 2pts a game, but I think he's a much better player than he's shown for the most part with the Leafs.

He looked really good playing with Grabo and Kulemin tonight.
- 13sundin13

Not better than Frattin.

I don't think McClement made Kulemin miss a nice juicy rebound, and I don't think many guys would've burried that deflection by Myers.
- mykokes

Frattin would have.

Other than the grigogretzky goal (I thought is was weak) Reimer was a beast

I think Lupul and Mac changes that?

really the only line that got over played was the bozak line imo

if kadri and frattin were played hard at the end of the third.. they dont have the gas to make that last second rush

things worked out. they won. next.

Mike Brown hurt again....what a SHOCK.

I think RC and the staff assumed it was kadri's fault on the third sabres goal (even though it was one of the other two players on the line). If you notice, Kadri stopped getting a regular shift after that point. The tapes will reveal Kadri had his guy and all will be right.

So if brown can't go who comes up? Hamilton ?

McClemment played a solid game, I don't see the problem with him being on a line that wasn't getting top minutes. Hasn't it been Kuli and Grabo playing a shut down line so far this year? Doesn't McClemment play that role too?

I'm also pretty sure Kadri, Frattin and Kamorov were more of the scoring line tonight so I really don't see the complaints about depth when the team was playing its lines for certain roles.

I've never given up on Reimer. He was good in his first year, then last year he got hurt and never looked the same. I've thought he's looked pretty good so far this season, and only expect him to get better.
