to lose like that on Mother's Day Eve, the holiest night of the Corey Perry calendar, is just too much

the best part of watching Oiler games is that inevitably you see people on the crowd shots that you know…

was watching with some pals tonight and there was lots of “oh that’s Dave, did some trades jobs with him last year” or “that’s my old boss, from construction” or my personal fav from this evening (and I quote) “hey that’s Andy, he just got out of prison!”

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Not an ideal start for Da JERTS

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Second penalty was iffy

[Alexei Ca$hin]

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Maybe the Leaves should stop taking penalties

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Leaves should try taking shots

[Grand Moff Larkin]

I wish they’d call Matthew Tkachuk for one of his standard post-whistle cross-checks

[linseman]

i can't really pinpoint what the leafs are doing wrong tonight it's just not working for them

[linseman]

their neutral zone play has been pretty disjointed i guess, not getting any good zone entries

woll has given up a few huge rebounds but they are getting away with it

[Grand Moff Larkin]

I remember when the Wings play the Panth this season, the Wings PP looked awful the first time against them, but when they moved it around quickly, they made Florida’s PK pay for their hyper-aggressiveness. Toronto doesn’t seem to be snapping it around clean on the PP.

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Leaves defenders doing a lot of diving at pucks… maybe stay on your feet

[Grand Moff Larkin]

It’s a one-shot game going into the third so it could be worse, but it feels like Florida is playing their preferred game

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Bennett checks Benoit over top of Woll after the whistle, barely gets a pushback

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Rodrigues gets interfered with alright but I don’t think he lost an eye in the process

[linseman]

Maybe the Leaves should stop taking penalties

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Knies did what I would’ve done on that shorthanded breakaway: shoot too early with no deception
