Cant boo a guy during a tribute on the big screen if you dont give him a tribute to begin with. Smart
What do you mean it was mostly dubas guys who pumped the ones?? Domi and Burt had 3 points each
Regarding Max Domi; it’s almost like when you give an elite passer elite scorers to pass to, he does and they score. It appears a Dubas trait is giving new guys just enough rope to hang themselves and then kicking the chair out when they do. Giving guys the opportunity to learn and redeem themselves isn’t a bad thing. He was forced into that tonight and look at the results.
Great LFR Steve- so good to see you so happy!
Yes, like you I didn’t really fully relax until we had six goals. The boys played fantastic hockey tonight, a full team effort, a full 60 minutes, they played 200 feet of the arena and they were just completely in tune with each other. Let’s hope that continues because Man they are dangerous when they play like that. Kudos to Jonesy for such a great shut out!!
Did not realise Daniel Winnik was a Toronto Maple Leaf, but I've seen him play in Switzerland! Pretty cool.
He did what he was asked nothing went in……dont ask victory puppy to act like a Jones if u want it to go in lolXD
The last time I was an honory "Leafs Fan for the Day," we lost 3-2, and I couldn't fathom why anyone would subject themselves to this team…
But, tonight, I can only say, "HOW DO I GO TO SLEEO AFTER THIS!?!?"
Martin Jones is one hell of a passer. I'm happy he got a shutout, but I saw a starting goaltender out there.
what happenes to Matthews? and how long is he out for?
Just to add about the Pens….Crosby is awesome, and Malkin is a good player. Stanley Cup winner Erik Karlsson doesn't have what it takes to win another Stanley Cup…..whoops……looks like he never did. He got 100 points last year by destroying the team. I'd rather a D-man with 20 points and a winning record. Blessing Toronto never traded for him. All Toronto has to do is trade Nylander for a bonafide Defenseman. It's that easy. Someone will eventually bite.
Chicken soup for the Leafs fan soul. Merry Xmas Steve to the whole Glynn Clan 🙏
You have good insights but your incessant screaming makes your show unwatchable.
Knies will be a franchise player. Hope the leafs hang on to him long term 👏 👏
I'm here after a Leafs WIN to celebrate but to also ask for, nay demand, less, a LOT less, betting advertising. Commercials for online betting should be, as they are in the UK, banned. Nasty business.
Jeez you’d think the pens were at least a top 20 team in the league based on this reaction😂
Toronto?😂 Rich, elitists that can't ever make the playoffs. $1000 night for 2 peoole only to watch a team that will never win a Stamly Cup again. Terrible peoole.
I am a fan of Martin Jones. In the games he has played for us he has played well.
You know every fan does it, but leaf fans are the worst for taking the other teams bad play as their teams good play. Pens defence was Swiss cheese😂 every problem that exists with these leafs is still there, can’t wait to watch the first round.
I was listening to the radio so I didn’t hear the chanting just have seen comments about it. From the sounds of it though, that’s up to misinterpretation about how to take it. Anyone could take that as a cheer, since as you admitted, Kyle Dubas is responsible for the majority of the Leafs’ roster and was let go because they made it to the second round… but didn’t make it to the third. Which is weird, they actually made it to the second round, but I digress.
Again, the heart being in the right place was the key. Knies standing up for Domi was pure gold.
man, Mathews is out and This????!!!!!
new lines?
Bertuzzi—Matthews—Nylander
Knies—Domi—Marner
Robertson—Tavares—Jarnkrok
Gregor—Kampf—–McMann
Ok they have a great record,,,, they have a great record every season! Yes this was a great win , this something that better teams need to do a couple times every season. Do something like this aagain soon!
Best win of the year so far. Hopefully they can keep playing like this when Papi returns
Don't get excited bro you beat the pens a team with no teeth. Syds greatness is being wasted. That said way to go queefs
How much longer will Sullivan be a coach?
@steve this is going to be the lowest rated episode isn’t it?
I can never remember Leafs scoring 12 straight regulation goals?…..new record?
One of the Leafs best all-round games I've seen in a long, long time. Steve's right about a GM being booed. You never hear it
I agree Steve, no hasty trading right now. This team is coming together. Every night it’s more and more evident it’s a team effort. Why was Dubas booed? Well, IMO, I was always a bit concerned when Sandin was traded last year. I was thinking, this is Nylander’s best friend…why would you trade one of your best players best friend? And then, all the frantic trading when they got Schenn, O’Reilly, Acciari, Gustafsson(who are all incredible athletes whom I respect 100%) but, where are they now?
I remember thinking, while I appreciate what Dubas was trying to do there, I also thought it sent this message to the buds- he didn’t think they were capable of going all the way without these new guys.
Just my opinion, but I agree Steve. This group is good, coming together, showing good fight. No hasty trades!
can barely tell you got ur hairline done Steve!
Matthew “knuckles” Knies!!!!!!!!
This game brought a tear to my eye. How beautiful. Last three games, I haven’t really felt like Taney is a good idea… Benoit and Lagesson look particularly good. Tough, breaking cycles. And McCabe is a stud. No Gio, no Brodie… they’re pretty good. Tanev ain’t worth whatever they want, and he ain’t cheap. Maybe he’s good playoff depth… who knows… helluva showing.
Beating one of the worst Leafs GM of all time is a huge win. Chefs kiss. Suck it Dufus!
size,,grit,,blue line,,,PLAYOFFS ????????????
I was at the game, was my first leafs game in Toronto. Couldn't have had a better night!
