How are our hearts supposed to take at least 4 more games of that!?
Leafs in 5.
Tampa has to be absolutely gutted right now 😈 **THE BRICK WOLL**
#JOSEPH WOLL IS A TORONTO MAPLE LEAF
Woll is absolutely showing us if anything happens to Sammy he should be the guy.
Are lineup were pretty mix match tonight, I thought he was outstanding man. Especially at the end.
Also knives is absolute beauty. He’ll be fan favourite in no time. Type of guys that young and old Leaf fans will just Love. Can’t get over how strong he is with the puck two games into his career.
McCabe is a fucking horse
Hahaha bolts playoff lineup lost to the sheldon keefe shitpost
Also on the second half of a B2B lol
I’m not gay but I want to live in a log cabin in the woods with Joseph Woll. We won’t ever have sex, but there will be a simmering erotic undercurrent as I stand in the kitchen window watching him tighten his ass as he chops wood, shirtless, sweat pouring off his body. I’ll run upstairs and masturbate, the entire time forcing myself to think of women while my thoughts drift back to that save he made on a Kucherov one timer. I won’t be able to climax and I’ll eventually go back downstairs, angry. Sometimes we will look across the table and catch each other’s eyes, and in that second, anything is possible, but we both deny ourselves and go back to what we were doing. One day one of us will die, and the other will bury him outside the log cabin. Then they’ll go inside, pen a brief missive to their departed friend, and commit suicide, never able to deal with life without their one true platonic love.
Jake McCabe at $2M for this season and the next two is fucked
Jake Fucking McCabe. Retire that jersey bby!!!
# W O L L #
McCabe blocks!!!
Insane game by Woll tonight
Woll is a certified beaut god DAMN
That was a intense game. WOW, J. WOLL!
KNIES WINS IN AMELIE ARENA!
Those points may be important because if we win the next game we can finish above rangers and devils potentially
Jake McCabe is a monster
There’s no way you can criticize Dubas for the job he’s done with the defense.
Jake McCabe is a fucking monster
Woll was a fucking monster, 45 saves in a game where Tampa had 8 powerplays plus all those incredible stops in the dying minutes while two men short, somehow only gets third star. Ok
If these boys continue to play the same way with the big boys back in the lineup, I have a good feeling.
we built the woll and made the lightning pay
can this win just count towards our series against tampa ?
3 weeks ago, I was ridiculed in this sub for saying that Woll should start on the road and Sammy at home. I’m telling you, they’re both really fucking good…
Just different feels with ROR, Acciari, McCabe and Schenn against Tampa.
Jesus Christ, there are some miserable fucks in the GDT.
If you needed any more proof that officiating in this league is completely one sided and backwards, look no further than Tampa fans watching this game and actually believing they are the ones who got shafted by officiating. The fact that this is something a human being could actually believe after watching that game should tell you how broken the officiating in this league is and how much the refs just hand them everything on almost every occasion.
edit: Some evidence for you guys if you think I’m making this up
https://www.reddit.com/r/TampaBayLightning/comments/12j45q5/is_it_me_or_do_these_refs_calls_seem_unfair/
“It’s called we’re a hockey team in Florida and they’re an Original Six team located in the hockey capital of the League.”
You can’t make this up lol
This is how broken officiating is in this league. These fans are so used to seeing the refs just hand games to them because they are Bettmans golden child, they think this game favored us from an officiating perspective lol
Woll is amazing
2-0 in the Knies era
McCabe with the best shot blocking I’ve ever seen.
We are better than Tampa, we have shown what we’re capable of now vs Boston and with a weak lineup vs Tampa. They can’t physically dominate us anymore, and our goalkeeping is much better than last year. We fucking got this boys
I know it was a nothing game on a second half of a back to back, but I’m really glad we beat them. Now let’s do it four more times (please)
McCabe and Schenn are such important nonchalant pickups and then add O’Reilly. My god.
Knies looking good. And he will only be getting better game after game!
Wow that was a gutsy win. I was watching the TB commentary and they were really focusing on how guys like McCabe and Acciari were selling out to block shots. I also thought O’Rielly, Kampf and Kerfoot were very strong tonight. Great win to build belief in themselves for the guys who are the glue of the team.
Rested TBL with their star players lost to an AHL team on a back to back with Timmins playing forward and our 3rd string goaltender in net.
McCabe is an absolute fucking dog. That is a man among boys. Schenn was a fucking beast out there. You could tell Tampa expected to come in and bully us but this team did not back down and they will not back down.
ROR was a stud in the last 5 minutes and that’s exactly what you need in shut down minutes.
There’s nothing more to be said about Woll. He looked phenomenal. You have to go with the hot hand in the post season, right now it’s Sammy and Woll. Sammy and Woll are the guys next year. It just depends on what it will cost to move Murray after this season.
I’m starting to believe boys.
That was what you might call a “statement” win.
We stated we aren’t going to be pushed around.
We stated we have secondary offense.
We stated we have goaltending.
We stated we are for real.
Biggest thing I noticed is they cant dominant us physically at all. Schenn, O’Reilly, Accari are all willing to get in there, make hits, and protect our stars
The Lightning are nothing without the officials and this game was such a microcosm of their entire season. They would miss out on a wildcard without them.
* 2 best players rested
* Gio rested
* Second night of a back to back
* AHL Goalie
* EBUG backing
* Wing is the 9th DMan
* 8 PKs
* Playing a man short
* Tampa full rested and playing their full strength team.
* A game that does not matter
LEAFS are for REAL!!! Am I missing anything???
Nylander quietly had an amazing game 🎯
I haven’t heard any complaints about Holl in awhile, which is a great thing because he’s been silently decent
