Habs @ Leafs - Oct. 3rd, 7:00pm - SN, Fan 590

[azzurri63]

Hello everyone. Glad to be back for another season. Missed first 2 periods but brutal effort here in the 3rd. Anyway only first game. Hopefully pick it up here in the last few minutes and possible overtime.

 

[L K]

I like the Leafs approach of botched stretch passes over and over again

Matthews gets cross checked in the head from behind, no penalty.  Wow.

 

[Zee]

No intensity at this game. They look like they're sleeping out there. Terrible opener

 

[lc9]

Leafs played about as bad as they can, habs played at their full potential and the officials did what they could for Montreal, and we head to OT.  Not what you want, but I?ll take it.

 

[Zee]

Is Komarov starting OT?

 

[barney_rebel]

We rule man

 

[YYZ]

$15 million dollar man!

 

[freer]

A lot closer then it had to be.

 

[lc9]

And the win!!!  Matthews.  Screw everything about Montreal.

 

[rjd]

I'm starting to think goal scoring centers are underrated.

 

[herman]

Look at that. An uggo game papered over by a momentary lapse by the opposition.

What a celly.

 

[Kaberle15]

In Matthews we trust...

 

[herman]

Thank goodness we got November Andersen instead of October Andersen.

 

[Nik]

I think we may see something pretty big from Matthews this year.

 

[ZBBM]

Marleau seems to not get tons of love from us but that was a gorgeous feed.

Kudos to MTL.  They deserved to win.  But if you take it to overtime against us ... good luck to you.  That's a formidable group 3/3.

Yeah, and now that he's out from under Lou's blanket you are going to see more of that swaggercelly.

 

[hockeyfan1]

Awesome Auston!

He's making it look even easier this year.  Will not be surprised in the least if he reaches the 60 goal plateau.  That may be stretching it a bit, but it's still a possibility.  With or without Nylander.

2nded.

And it's a small thing, but the only way the leafs had possession to put that play together was because Tavares refused to give up on the puck at the end of his shift and passed it back to keep possession on the line change.
