EQF: #4 Boston Bruins vs #5 Toronto Maple Leafs (BOS wins 4-3)

[leaffan]

Leafs were brutal in that one.

Sharks fan has got his blinders on again. Leafs actually outshot, out corsi'd and had more puck posession time then the bruins.

Leafs had a blunder of a 2nd and looked really nervous in the first but pretty much hemmed the bruins in their own zone for most of the game. Again classic luck goals and bad breaks for the leafs killed them.

Biggest thing I noticed tonight which PP is apparantly obvlious too was the 3rd line for the bruins playing really well. Peverly and Kelly were sick on the draw (combined 22-4).

 

[leaffan]

You're half right and half clueless.

Hopefully this loss will force RC to insert Liles and MacArthur for O'Byrne and Hamilton.

I like O'Byrne but he made some dreadful mistakes and Hamilton's a shit bum. When I seen hamilton get caught out there a couple times with Kessel and Kadri I died a little.

Phaneuf carrying the puck up on the ice during PP's pretty much has to stop. His first pass and decision making was dreadful tonight.

They turned the puck over in terrible spots, far too many times in the game. Kessel handed them odd man rushes about 5 times. Overskating passes, mis-timing each other, they were incredibly sloppy with puck management and it cost them goals.

They were brutal.

Saying their brutal :jonesy: yah no. They're playing the same way that won them game 2 but had the game 1 turnovers creep back in. Take the blinders off yah fud.

No goals 5 on 5
Destroyed in the faceoff circle
Shorthanded goal given up


p.s. Someone tell Reimer not to touch the puck when it's icing

p.s.s Someone tell Carlyle you might want to get on the refs when Boston fucks around on line changes...over...and over...and over...


At least you'll be golfing on the weekend.

5on5 - same problem all series nothing new there but then again Boston is 6th in the league for GA in 5v5. Cool story though.

Faceoff circle - When your top faceoff guy is waved out I think the stat was 9 times that ain't going to help.

Shorthanded goal was phaneufs fault but its the same problem as game 1 with the break outs as already discussed.

Refs were boneheaded for most of the game but they've been pure shit all year so not surprised.

More fud blinders please. :yao:

 

[wr50l]

You corsi'd the fuck out of them LOL.

That's almost as accurate a description of the series as flipping the switch.

I'm a Leaf fan and you of all people need to take the blinders off in this thread man. Leafs were awful. So what if they outshot the Bruins? It's the quality of shots that matter, and up until the third, a lot of them were easy saves for Tuuka. They were abysmal in the faceoffs, extremely sloppy with the puck along with bad decisions. My biggest gripe is they weren't as physical like they were in game 2 which is something that has given them success this season.

Reimer didn't play all that bad, most goals he let in he had no chance of saving because his other 4 teammates on the ice weren't helping.

 

[leaffan]

Dion Phaneuf should be the first star of that game. He played really well for boston tonight.

[PP]

Both teams played well but lol Dion @ the end. Thats all it takes. One bounce, once mis-step. Anyway, Leafs aren't in the Bruins league. They can be a solid team but you aren't winning anything with Reimer, he is terrible imo.

 

[PP]

oh.. and lol

This diving shit needs to end.

This is about as funny as Vancouver whining about dives lmao.

You don't think players should be fined to cut this shit out?

Boston would be losing a ton of money then.

Answer the question.

You're ok with that particular dive?

 

[leaffan]

Answer the question.

You're ok with that particular dive?

No I'm not but I'm pointing out that a Boston fan is whining about diving while his team is notoriously one of if not (behind the canucks) one of the worst diving teams in the league.

Whats worse is they have Brad Marchand who is an embarassment to Boston Bruins hockey but also to Hockey Canada.

What I wish I would see if players getting kicked out for some of it and it would stop. Fines don't do anything.

 

[Ravin]

lol @ those dives. I haven't seen someone selling like that since I watched Monday night RAW.

 

[PP]

I want to see all of the diving gone. from my team and every team. hate the shit.
