The first two periods were crazy entertaining.

 

Even though we ‘lost’ - hard to take SO seriously one way or another - there’s a ton to like about this team. They’re fun, dynamic, and believe in each other. Like the ‘08 and 2014 teams, they’re a bunch of kids discovering how good they can be.

 

Evans is reverting back to being Jake Evans - not a bad thing, but it does mean that he failed to capitalize a few times tonight. 

 

Laine seemed slow, but that hit was absolutely bone-crushing and ho hum, another insane one-time PP goal.

 

Really strong effort against an elite opponent under onerous circumstances 👍

From the Call of the Wilde thread on twitter:

 

“It feels like every single goal of Laine’s this season is the same set-up. He gets a feather of a pass on the tape on the left side and he rips it top corner.”

 

And:

 

"You see it. 21K in the stands see it.

The opposing team scouts it.

And they are still powerless to stop it."

Stamkos & Ovechkin set up and filled the net from similar place for long time, Caufield has quite a few also (it seems).

With PK's disadvantage, they just cant cover everyone.

Couple missed calls. One on Armia trip and one on caufield interference for a breakaway. That one pissed me off.

Let's not become Leafs fans about the refs ... Habs get away with stuff as well ... if not tonight, it is an 82-game schedule.

Agreed, bad or missed calls can go both ways and tend to even out over an 82 game schedule.

Turned out to be well officiated in the end. Also don't ever call me a leafs fan. Ever.

Hahaha. Just a joke. I'd eat a turd with no salt on it before I cheer for the leaves.
