Not enough credit is being given to Marner for the Game 6 victory.
Great defensive play to take the puck away, great spinning pass to Matthews, top notch primary assist to finally get the monkey off Matthews’ back. Also had a great pass to Knies early in the game that he couldn’t bury.
Perfect on the PK too. On the ice in the closing minutes, constantly clearing the zone without icing the puck or taking a penalty.
In a tight elimination game.
They will hate on him twice as hard for the mistakes and give him half the credit for the successes, calling him a greedy bitch who doesn’t help win big games. Except when he does, then all you hear is crickets.
Bullshit.
No matter how Game 7 goes, pay the man. Continue being patient, even though it’s taking way longer than anybody wanted or expected. Don’t risk watching him win Cups in another city like we’ve seen so many (lesser) former Leafs do before.
If you asked before the series would you take a game 7, most of us would have said yes. What an opportunity this is. -Fifty
I would have said no because this Leafs team absolutely sucks in Game 7s.
In front of that dead crowd at home, even worse. The crowd was a disgrace in Game 5 and that was way before the game became a debacle.
I feel that our unseen hero might be Laughton. He’s been around the puck and has played doggedly throughout the playoffs. He hasn’t been rewarded, so the hockey Gods may grant the opportunity to do the unthinkable and dispatch Florida in game 7. -PrinceLH
Jarnkrok or OEL.
Spirit of Salming.
Marner GWG, Matthews GWG, Knies GWG.
Time for Tavares, Nylander or another top-six forward to win a game. Or…*gasp* a bottom-six player score a goal.
Or a defenseman. Rielly? Wake up time.
Somebody new has to step up in Game 7.
Woll already stole a game, can’t expect him to pitch another SO.
Anybody who thinks the crowd, the atmosphere and home ice doesn’t mean anything needs to watch and learn a thing about the giant boost this Winnipeg crowd creates for their team. People absolutely rocking from the puck drop, total whiteout, costumes, chanting, passion, everybody on their feet, cheering, yelling, participating all game long.
The way Winnipeg is playing tonight, outshooting Dallas 32-15 so far in the 3rd period, up 3-0, is partly connected to how they feel at home. You can clearly see their play drop off on the road, but at home, they get a giant boost from the REAL fans in the stands. Dallas DOES NOT want to have to come back here for a Game 7.
Hellebuyck, another home shutout. It’s a shame he sucks though.
The Leafs home atmosphere is an absolute disgrace compared to the level of passion you see during Winnipeg and also Edmonton games in dire situations where they are behind in the series 3-1 or 2-0.
Home ice should be an advantage and the fans at the Leafs game had no reason to stay, but they were mute by comparison from puck drop onward.
Leafs ownership has to make a massive change in how their fans create a positive, helpful environment for their players.
Luke Schenn should still play for the Leafs by the way. Another idiot move by Leafs management.
I’d rather have Nick Ehlers and Brock Boeser for the same money. They may not have the numbers, but they have some Jam. -PrinceLH
Lay off the safe injection sites.
Ehlers has 7 career playoff goals in 43 games. Boeser is a -25 pylon. Both soft as baby shit.
