I’m just glad it was a spirited competition. Bravo to the combatants!

Then add in the Boston love...

Holy poop, he really is possessed by the spirit of UG!

Yep. Couldn't win a faceoff.

Washington won 5-2 despite winning only 30% of faceoffs today.

So he played well tonight?

I don't think I heard his name

Marner should have scored at least 5 goals with all the chances he got. Tavares got robbed by a great save from Markstrom. Matthews hit the (frank)ing post.

End of the world. Abandon ship!

“Steven” and “dang-GULL” were dead giveaways

Hey hey hey, he played the game.

On a top line with Nelson Mandela!!!

Nice win for you guys. A little disappointed in our team's play. You have some good young players that will only get better.

What do you think about Boston losing both of their games against Vancouver? It seems to be a relevant barometer for you when evaluating the Leafs, so I'm just curious.

Lead the team in shots (tied with Marner).

Yep. Couldn't win a faceoff.

Oh well Freddie’s got us lots of points this year, we didn’t deserve to win the way we played the OT

Doesn’t matter, play Boston and probably won’t have home ice.

Good chance to win a round this year regardless

There is no correlation between faceoff wins and wins.


None.


Zero.

Again. Winning faceoffs does not win you games.

Faceoffs are but one puck battle. If you can't win the rest, you don't win.

We aren't as good as them. You know it.

I know it.

We are going to get leaned on.. bullied. And lose in 6

4 shots on net, a couple good ones.

Not his best game but he was ok IMO

Nice cherry picked stat man.

Faceoffs don't win you games.thats true.

But in 3on3 OT?

Flagged by accident.

But we didn't lose to Boston because of "bullying".

We lost because there was no answer to the top line. Having Kadri out for 3 didn't help there.
