I do feel bad for Hutch who is getting absolutely dummied by everyone for last night's performance.

Matthews praised him postgame.

The chances the Leafs allow are always 5 alarm fires.

That’s why goalies are always getting hurt, or burnt out as the season/years go on.

Freddy is the happiest goalie in the world rn.

He's playing with McDavid after playing with Matthews, I expected a bump in points for him but Hyman would be #1 in points on the Leafs right now with those totals.


McDavid is a beast, so is Drysaitle (sp?)

Hey but we have Tavares, Matthews, Marner and Nylander!!!

Ok the biggest difference is when playing with Marner the D of the opposition could focus more on him because they realized the likely chance that Marner will shoot dangerously was small enough to cover the grit guy who goes to the front of the net.

business as usual in here

Lmao

I know that when I'm healthy, I will stop going here

I don't always reply with negative posts, Dozzer. But I do rag on Marner's contract a lot and this team's inconsistent effort a lot.

I'm not angry, crazy, or "checked out".

You are right though: triggering a very defensive fanbase is a thing.
- mjones242

That’s what I mean, negativity but nothing over the line, it’s going to trigger a lot of leaf fans

You disagree? Why are they outchancing and outshooting everyone? They aren't finishing that's by far the biggest issue

Outgoalied and the refs.
MORE KOOLAID PLEASE!

He’s doing well however 3 of his 5 goals are on the PP where he’s playing with both McDavid and Draisaitl so he’s basically getting to play with wide open ice.

Another was a PK goal which is when he’s not playing against the oppositions best defensive players.

Only 1 goal 5 on 5 so far.

My guess is he’s the extra guy who basically doesn’t get covered while on the PP where he basically hardly gets covered
- Dozzer

Cool play. The Leafs should try it out.

He already shipped Ritchie to line 4 last night
- Garnie

Ritche not playing well is not the problem for this team.. there are a bunch of players above him that should be taking heat
