Annoying game. This season is harder to watch than last season

They've been around each game. They have to learn how to win these close games.

seriously? I thought that was pretty exciting.

Unless you're getting annoyed by the fact that they really need to tighten up defensively, and just haven't been doing it.

Oh i know. I just don't like the build from the wings in philosophy.

Out attempt them 23-3 in the 3rd and nothing to show for it. That's annoying

Can't complain

traffic in front didn't look too great though. I thought the shots were a little high, and clear view by goalie.

built from the wings? Huh? Matthews, their top young player, is a centre. Nylander will end up playing centre. Marner is a natural centre. Kadri, their best "vet" is a centre. And they've got Bozak still kicking around. They're overloaded down the middle, that's why some of these guys are playing wing.

I'm talking about the recent draft picks and kids like Bracco, Kapanen etc.

Anywho, just my opinion, but Bozak is gone soon ish, Nylander and Marner don't become NHL centremen. That leaves Matthews and Kadri as a 1 and 3 which is good. Hopefully some of Brown, Nylander, Marner, Bracco, Kapanen, Lipstick, Hyman, Soshnikov, JVR, Komagod, Martin turn into great defensive players.

I look at the Wild and their less than stellar forward group and think, how do they do it?

when they were dead last this past season, or think of how brutal they were the year before...this is a quantum leap forward in this short time. They have run into a lot of good goaltending in their schedule so far this year too...the way they're playing, they'll stay in the playoff hunt down to the wire.

Dubnyk was amazing and the Wild did a good job even when they are under seige and the ice is tilted, a lot of good D work from them.

I like that the Leafs went hard trying to come back. This Leafs team seems like it gets pissed when it's losing and believes it can win, can't say that about recent Leaf teams, this one has heart.

There are some really whiny bumholes around here.

YEAR #1 of putting together some legit players....at forward....and a little more work to do especially on D.

(frank)ing pussies....man up. Let them all settle in, let LouShanaDubasCock work out some D issues and then we can all watch some playoff hockey.

The Leafs can't win every (frank)ing game. This young team definitely will not win every game.

They did come back from being down, second time now, and then played hard until the end. The team had a lot of chances but ran into one of the hottest goalies in the league. Not a big deal.

Drink a beer and enjoy the rookies and FFS chill the (frank) out!

Leafs Land looks good.

I wasn't implying we drafted Kapanen. They were meant to be two separate subjects, draft picks (Bracco) and kids like Kapanen
