Collapsing in front of the net. Activating the D. These are all the things I was saying! The things! Guys! THINGS!

So, Matthews.
I guess he did quit on Babcock.
Haven’t seen that kind of effort from him since his rookie season.

He needs to score - been a while, and I'm losing one head to head match up after the other.

He had a nice poke check that probably saved a goal in that period though.

He is what he is and that's a 6/7 guy, let's be honest. Hopefully Keefe recognizing that.

I still want:

Rielly Holl
Muzzin Barrie
Dermott Ceci

I think that 5/6 pairing would actually do well with limited minutes.

And Sandin later in the season. Like Dermott

After one period under Sheldon Keefe, the Leafs are:

60.3% expected goals
55.9% possession
67.5% scoring chances

Looking like a different team early on.

After a while I wondered why Babcock kept talking about family so much. Good man, good family. Like (frank), it's your job, who gives a poop about your family? I don't really care if Matthews' family is a death cult if he scores.

Yeah, he is a 6/7 guy, I agree. I was saying in the last thread that he has the skills to be a 3/4 guy (size, above average skater, decent shot, decent pass), but he doesn't have the HockeyIQ to support it.

The only other guy who I thought had a mediocre first period was Johnsson. You could argue about Nylander as well, he could be more . . well, just more.

Was asked how he feels about the coaching change and says he got to do things he did in Colorado. Imagine that, coaching the team to their strengths..

I think they might just let Sandin run the D in the AHL. He may force their hand, but that will burn a year on his ELC that they currently don't need to burn.
