The game with the Devils was a stinker. Hopefully, the Leafs bounce back and beat the Caps again-in regulation.

No idea what's happening but Keefe canceled practice yesterday as many could not practice. Probably sour he called them out. The poor prima donnas.

Caps fighting for a spot. Won’t be easy. Bolts beat the B’s. Leafs may slip into wild card territory. Does it matter? Not to me. Just play like you want to win. With some fire. That’s all I want. Effort.

I'd like to see a couple of pp goals. They have to get that going.

That and the PK. It’s the same every season. They just don’t seem resolved enough to break through tough playoff hockey. The grind gets worse not better. Just look like you have something to play for. If they think all will be better when Mitch and Jarnkrok return then they’re dreaming. They need leaders to be leaders.

Matthews is sick. Game time decision. Why push him. If he is not q00% then sit out. I couldn't care less about him getting 70 goals. Not one of those goals will help in playoffs

Exactly. Well said. All these illnesses and minor injuries could turn out to be helpful if they are all good to go with a bit more rest than normal. The first round opponent no matter who it is will be formidable. Don’t fear it, embrace it. Hoping there comes a time when this team gets tired of being humiliated in a series and skating off the ice like beaten dogs. Just play hard.

Simple story here. The Caps need every win they can get, the Leafs couldn't care less. Good night to catch a movie on Netflix.

The Leafs should care. They have a sh*tload of issues to clean up in a short time. I would love a W but would love just as much a good physical game where special teams clicked. Wishful drinking I know!!🍺

Wishful drinking I know!!🍺 I agree completely TMan. They certainly have a ton of issues to clean up, but either they can't or won't address them. These issues have gone on for years now, hence, my pessimism. Believe it or not I was optimistic years ago when they drafted Marner and Matthews, when it looked like their goaltending issues had been solved with Anderson. I really did think they were on the right path. But like it always does for the Leafs everything went to sh*t. I've always said I hope the Leafs prove me wrong, so maybe the lesser lights on the club step up and carry the load tonight.

Decent first. Killed a penalty, good PP try and Gio pops one.

2-1 Leafs midway through the 2nd, but more importantly, 2 really good pk’s from our guys. Standing up at the the blue line and not allowing easy entry to our dzone, much more aggressive on pk, that’s the ticket!
GO LEAFS GO!
