    It’s not enough just to have fucking animated digital board ads, no. They have to have a big animated ad cover the score bug during play. Thanks NHL, fucking idiots.

  2. GoGoPowerPlay

    Gregor looking good tonight, getting some chances.

  3. nownowthethetalktalk

    Gregor is going to pop one in tonight. He’s looking good.

  4. frmacleod

    We have been spoiled with a couple of TSN games. This Sportsnet call is brutal. The colour commentary is particularly bad.

  5. WillEyedowin

    I wanna see Gregor play some shifts with Domi and Knies

  6. MyFriendJamieSucks

    It’s quite clear 95% of people in here have never played the game

  7. ElephantShell34

    Anybody else feel like the Leafs have to work so much harder to score than other teams? If one of our D made a mistake like that McDonagh turnover it would be in the back of the net for sure. That and pucks just bouncing into the Leafs net off of whatever.

    Feel like the the Leafs always need a perfect shot off a perfect play or it ain’t going in.

  8. lolhaa2

    imo nylander is our best forward right now

    not many can do some of the things he can

  9. Level_Exercise_3939

    They played that Sammy save as routine, but that was a good grab. Him vs. the shooter.

  10. BCharmer

    Saros is under 6 feet? Wow. He looks huge in net.

  11. Dadbat69

    Only a matter of time before Mitch starts heating up. Bottom 6 need to step it up though

  12. Hell_Interface_

    Do we have 2 legit goalies now?

    (the answer is yes)

  13. TrillBillyDeluxe

    Defence has lost the fuckin plot

  14. pinkypowerchords

    I love that playoff mo carried out into the season. He’s not over the loss

  15. Prometheus1866

    Klingberg…dude.

    Edit: Yup, went back to see, was rielly indeed.

  16. TheLoomingMoon

    Hmm don’t think Sherwood is well liked

  17. Woll was a stud last game, so what do we do?

    Start with Samsonov 😏

  18. BCharmer

    Every time they say Evangelista, I think Linda’s on the ice.

  19. UncleTrapspringer

    Is it just me or is the maple leafs crest on these jerseys absolutely fucking ginormous?

  20. ProfessorBeast55

    LATE ass hits on our guys by the Preds……

  21. chriscmusic

    Klingberg is playing with some physicality tonight, I like it

  22. labadee

    i really do not like reaves starting in the defensive zone

  23. Level_Exercise_3939

    The broadcast was meant to say Marner went to the dressing room. We literally saw him go.
