Dave that must have been a great game to be at.Glad they switched the song not a fan of that one but hearing there could be another one coming. Time to tighten up the game we will take the 2 points
All I can say and can't believe I'm saying this….BRING BACK HALLS AND OATES!!!!
It's early and the D was pathetic, but AM shined and earned his pay, an entertaining game if sloppy. I'm not going to be optimistic until I see a consistent dominance of bottom tier teams. Until then, keep up the good analysts.
We need a major upgrade on the bottom defense pair. Neither Gio or Lilly should be playing every single night. Connor Timmons injury was a big blow to the depth and options on the back end. Rumor is they tried to trade Lafferty to Edmonton for Deharnais..too good to be true. Of course the oilers wouldn't do that….but that is the type of guy we need, a monster that can clear the front of the net, play with grit even fight some, shut teams down, but can also move the puck and contribute in the offensive zone. I think Treliving will tinker with this blue line before the deadline.
The leafs… look… like… the leafs.
We need to consider that sammi maybe had his campbell year last year. He is not likely the kind of goalie you can survive with unless you have strong defenders
