  1. campbell and anderson do the same thing, they make so many good saves but they'll let it one terrible deflating goal a game.

  2. In the last game, Samsonov made a lot of saves and tried very hard, but the team played poorly defensively. I think it's worth giving Samsonov a rest, Vasilevsky will not have enough strength.

  3. There’s a reason you’re on the radio not behind a bench. None of you have a clue what you’re talking about this is laughable

  4. When 4 players are 60% of your cap, how do you expect to sign anyone not deserving to be in juniors? How do you guys not understand this?

  5. There is nothing wrong with samsonov he is a good goalie you never blame the goalie you blame the guys that are supposed to get the goals and the guys that are supposed to defend the net plain and simple Samson off is doing an awesome job

  6. Oh God stop pls. Samsonov is the man, Woll is a worthy back up. That's what got the team this far, end of story. Pls think up more interesting things to discuss guys

  7. Ha.. Blame it on the goaltending? I bet Canadians watching our coverage of the NFL feels this cringe.

  8. Said it before this play off , most important pieces are goaltending and coaching and the reason why Tampa winn again.

  9. Samsonov over commits with every save … Woll is the more confident Goalie in the crease of the two. Keefe should have considered Woll as the starter awhile ago! The team starts off every game mentally not ready with him in the net wait first 10 mins to see if he’s actually gonna save some tough shots then decide okay he seems alright tonight let’s actually give it a go… Woll on other hand is the first young goalie I’ve ever seen the Leafs play who has Felix Potvin like presence in the net and the team plays with more energy with him there… Because WOLL helps us ignore HOLL !

  10. Samsonov was scored on too many times while he was wildly out of position. Unacceptable as an NHL goalie.

  11. Lets not get all pessimistic here … Samsonov won 2 overtime games where he outplayed Vasilevskiy. He lets OT goals in those and Tampa has already won the series 4 games to 1.
    Pretty sure Vasi is not focused on weak goals he lets in …just gets back to business like he showed in game 5.

  12. Stunning analysis: The winning team's goalie had better numbers than the losing team's goalie in those specific games.

  13. What do you guys know ? are you a goalie ? Linus Ullmark blew it the other night as well . Matthew needs to step it up .

  14. Samsanov has made some key saves when it counted to keep them in the game. He hasnt been terrible persay he needs to really watch his rebound contol.

  15. SAMMY is NOT the problem at all. It's the team in front of him that NEED to find another gear

  16. You can't blame holl for this , he plays against top line of other teams , samsonov needs to be better. The whole team needs to be better

  17. Vasilevsky has also let in some soft goals this series. Leafs fans are just trauma conditioned to see the same repeating pattern.

  18. Blaming a game on a goalie is just showing that you don't understand how hockey works. There is five players in front of him that made errors if it gets to a shot, but ultimately you just focus on the mistake of the goalie. And no, lets not forget about the good saves he made, because of course if you tunnel vision on his mistake, he looks like a bad player, everyone would. Its so dumb to look at two shots of a hundred and after you don't talk about the situation that led to those shots. Wanting from a goalie to be perfect at any situations is not a critique, because nobody can do that.

  19. Lmao “stuck”no one is stuck with him……leafs were certainly “stuck” with Kyperios when he played in Toronto

  20. How does Kyperios still have a job!? His takes on hockey are so ridiculous…..Bourne is fine…..but Kyperios constantly sounds stupid

  21. Dumbest conversation ever. Samsonov shouldn’t even be talked about as he has been amazing.

    These guys are idiots.
