The next month could be a very lethargic for us. Winning semi-regularly keeps us in that 3rd slot (dont get me started on the playoff format) and simply watching to see who we face. In short, it could be very boring so I hope Matthews gets 60 fast so he can get some legit rest. No Marner on this road trip and thats not good.

Sounds like Samsonov in goal again. Keefe must want to get him in a groove..

I still say he needs to play Woll at least half the remaining games. It won't go well if Samsonov is injured or fumbles again, and Woll not game ready because he sat too long. I'm not as trusting of Samsonov as some people are.

Woll gets the Caps game tomorrow. Leafs have a couple back to backs left so Woll will get his looks I think. Not sure why Torts has scratched Couterrier . Trying to light a fire under his team? Hope it backfires. Philly will want to play better tonight at home than the last time at home against the Leafs.
GO LEAFS GO!!

I think Philly will be a lot tougher tonight with Torts behind the bench again. I’m sure they will come out trying to get back at us from last week’s loss. That and the fact that they perceived we were trying to run up the score after Keefe sent out our #1 power play unit with only a couple minutes left in the game. They weren’t happy about that even though I actually think it was done innocently. Anyway they are fighting for their playoff life so I expect it to be a battle. Sammy has been playing well but Keefe needs to get Woll in the nets leading up to the playoffs. We need 2 goalies to be in top shape and game ready.

Ready for the playoffs to start. I'm starting to think Marner's injury is worse than what the club is saying. It was interesting for a while when Matthews was red hot and he was looking at a possible 70+ goal season. I think that's gone now that Marner's out and he's stone cold.

Flyers may be more feisty than last time, Torts is on a rampage and wants them in the playoffs. Generally he gets teams playing to win.

High ankle sprains take a lot of time. Look at Woll. That was 2 months I think. Leafs need Mitch. Keefe and Tre being coy about this injury. Getting out of first round will be hard. Without Mitch… almost impossible. Flyers look hungry tonight. Not happy with the Leafs effort after 20.

Many Leaf dents in the posts tonight. Flyers much better than the Leafs. PP stone cold. Brodie awful again. Be surprised if they win this one,

I just don't get Keefe. I know overall he has a good record coaching but some of his decisions make no sense. So this period he is putting Matthews line out every other shift. This is not the playoffs. Team plays tomorrow night. Why kill that line? It's not a must win situation. Also he puts Robertson with Kampf and Dewar. 2 defensive forwards. How is an offensive flashy player supposed to succeed there? Dumb! Then he will scratch him for not producing. Also that power play.. awful. I didn't thi k I'd say this but Marner is way more important than I gave him credit for

I wonder what the record is for most breakaways given up in a game? And how pathetic is it that the announcers are making excuses for Matthews.? I don't even work tomorrow but I'm probably going to bed in a few minutes because this is pathetic. If Marner is hurt and has to miss some time in the playoffs (or just be bargain basement good) they already have their built-in excuse.

3rd goal ..why , an overtired first line can't get control of puck.
I'm not upset losing but am with effort and coaching.
Time for bed
