He deserved 2 games.

Yup. Especially given that Nurse got a game just for instigating.

(Cue UCB's confusion about why many NHL fans dislike VGK.)

Yeah, like one of those guys said, it wasn't even a hockey play. During the regular season he probably gets two games. NHL doesn't like doing stuff like that in the playoffs though. Almost surprising he got 1 game, as opposed to a fine or whatever.

The Leafs' offense so many times is to skate into their zone and have 3 guys all go into the same general area of the slot until their shot is blocked or they turnover the puck.

They don't try to create space, they have no plan... it's like a little kid playing a video game.

YES. TOR never looks like they have a plan offensively. just flinging pucks around, hoping that a teammate will be there and maybe make a play, but no one seems to know what the play might be.

Frustrating to watch, exactly like watching kids playing a video game.

Assuming the Leafs don't win the series, much less today, I'm going to mention this across multiple threads with no context whatsoever and continuously bring it up for no reason for over a year.

Is that a goal?
[Reply]

Looks like it's all the way over the line, but not sure if the whistle blew it dead by then.
[Reply]

Ah, bad luck. Well, maybe it'll get TOR amped up.

Internet's taking a shit, so never saw a full video with sound... but seemed like the part they were showing was well after the whistle.
[Reply]

JC, TOR just can't play sharp hockey. How many whiffed pass attempts is that just in this series?
[Reply]

commentators also said that it was after the whistle. I couldn't hear it.
[Reply]

Yeah, so the part they kept showing from the goalie cam was when Bob was getting out of his stance... and the puck is clearly over and just falls out of his gear. IMO, that would be beyond any continuation or what not.

I watched the initial shot several times from the long angle and it might have gone over on the shot, near the post... but, there's no angle showing it clearly over the line.

I think it's a good call.

Who was saying earlier in this thread that the Leafs get help from the league/refs? I feel like that situation (puck being over the goal line with no whistle blown) might have been a good opportunity for that.

I remember that post. Has to be within the last 30 or so posts.
