Game#19 Toronto @ Nashville 8 pm LeafsTV, AM640 blah blah blah

On the flip side, Schenn looks like he seems to be continuing his better play.  He made a few nice plays in the defensive zone to cover for Komisarek's 'the puck is a grenade that I throw at the opposition instead of getting it out of the zone' act.

 

[Erndog]

That was completely a deliberate offside, that face-off better be in the Nashville zone.

 

[Derk]

Missed the first goal.

Leafs need to score. That's about it.

 

[TML fan]

At this rate, they might as well have just stuck a pylon in the goal. It would probably have the same save percentage as Scrivens.

 

[bustaheims]

On the plus side, the Leafs have been, by a fair margin, the better team so far. Not a ton of great scoring chances or anything, but, Nashville has barely had the puck on the Leafs' side of the red line.

 

[pnjunction]

Wow so I come home to see

TOR 0 NSH 1
Shots TOR 7 NSH 1

Sigh.  Might as well post this now.

 

[Derk]

Oops there Schenn.

I'd like to see the replay on that hit on Frattin.

 

[L K]

Oops there Schenn.

I'd like to see the replay on that hit on Frattin.

I think they have mostly been completely clean hits, but man does Nashville ever take big runs at players.  There have been 3-4 hits already in the game that are probably harder than anything the Leafs (other than Phaneuf) has delivered all year.

Smithson's hit on Komisarek could have been ugly if Komisarek didn't brace himself properly and not let himself be drilled from behind head first into the boards.

 

[Erndog]

So... Our 2nd line has a combined 3 goals this year correct?

Our 3rd line has 6?

0 for the 4th line.

My god.

 

[Derk]

Huh. Looks like all the internet feeds crashed. Oh well.

That's the one I think I cringed the most on.  I think it was still relatively "clean" though as it was delivered as Komisarek was turning to protect/play the puck. But it was a little excessive for a hit that clearly ended with Komisarek facing the boards.

Doesn't Grabovski has 5 on his own?

Or are you talking about this reconfigured lineup?  Kind of unfair to Connolly...

Yeah on Gamecenter Live I had to switch to Nashville's.

Came back just in time for intermission commercials 

 

[Bender]

That's a terrible goal.

But it's not goaltending, it's bad systems.

Sorry, I'll stop now.

 

[Fanatic]

Solid period by the Leafs. If they keep playing like that they shoudl have a shot at winning.

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

Man, is there a more snakebit guy than Tyler Bozak on the team?!
