I don't get why people get upset when their team gives up goals when they're outscoring the opponent. Only in hockey are wins judged by how much many goals you give up as opposed to what you score.

I don't mind having good goals scored....but sometimes it's nice to vent when your favorite whipping boy causes it

The games will be very sloppy. I'm not expecting the Leafs to win many of them. A game every other night, they won't make it, imo.

Games have been fun and entertaining.

But yeah. I guess it's not a good game unless it's Mistake free and the leafs win 5-0.

No no no. No venting allowed. You're supposed to bottle your feelings up constantly until you have a stroke, or turn to drinking!

Where's Hughson

But seriously. Why the sudden obsession with faceoffs that Hughson and Simpson seemed to develop

- Santo_44

i admit my obsession level over their level of obsession with face offs is also off the charts but holy hell they've really taken this face off stat thing too far

Meh, let em play.

Pretty soft call.....remember we have Polak

- Garnie

honestly, as long as neither team is taking liberties, and you give both sides the same leniency, I'm good with this.

Jesus this is a scary shift.

Anderson is giving up a lot of rebounds. I wish he would trap the puck more often.

He is still use to the Anaheim defense clearing it out of danger unlike the Leaf defense clearing it into danger.

no no, we do this with baseball too. pretty sure we'd be pissed off 40-50 times a game if any of us actually liked the nba too.

They don't clear it into danger

They just stand around and let the other team do whatever they want.

Perhaps he could work on directing it away from the opposition.
