3rd line looks small and is playing small.

Not a disaster of a period other than the defensive lapse and 2 stupid penalties

But Leafs need to thank their lucky stars its not 2 or 3-0 with those crossbars. Sammy's keeping it from getting ugly but help the guy out

Also man Bruins system is one to replicate as they suffocate you

He just needs to tone it down a bit as to not get baited into a suspension like Kadri

Last thing we need rn

Think you mean a proper defensive system and not play Reaves as we might as well be handicapping ourselves lul

First shift he's out misses assignment and yea 2 on 1 goal

As long as he puts Marchand into a coma, it's all good with me

Toronto hasn't had a goalie that can steal games in a long time. We've always had good Goalies, like Andersen and Samsonov, but nobody game breaking.

I think Ahktyamov could be that dude. Woll could be if he stays healthy.

As said before should not be needing a goalie to steal a game if you have a good overall team and everything's clicking. Sammy outdueled Vasi to beat TBL and in game 6 played his best game of the series.

VGK won a cup with their #3 goalie Hill, he didnt need to steal games just be good as a whole.

For TOR everything has to click top the bottom to go far. Sammy can do all he can but if defense continues to have lapses and continue to give BOS 2 on 1's might as well book the golf course.

This team can win but they need to sharpen up, stop taking stupid penalties, and get Reaves out of the lineup lul

Keefe also needs to make the right adjustments when need be and we saw one tonight with Jarnkrok coming in for Reaves in defensive draws for 4th line

Cause yea for BOS their suffocating defense from everyone just makes the goalie's life a breeze. They also come in big at times but its no surprise why BOS goalies always have good numbers

Am I the only one who doesn’t mind how this team has been playing lol? They’re outshooting them and they seem like they’re controlling the play most of the time. Just a few mistakes here and there. I’m definitely not panicking yet.

They're playing fine, it's just infuriating watching this team get goalied AGAIN... what happened to the gameplan from last year where we would get traffic in front and put pucks on net.

Keefes system is the definition of insanity.

Yah Swayman>Sammy so they need to step it up a bit. Agreed it seems like they need to be getting more pucks on net.
