[Second Line Center]

P.K. Lol gotta see the Leafs do it in the playoffs.  What they do against Buffalo is meaningless.

I want to see Dylan Cozens come out in the 2nd and drop the gloves on his first shift.

This effort is unacceptable.

I called for COZZIE to have a Geordie Howe hat trick!

I didn’t think that was an early whistle. I didn’t know where the puck was either.

 

The Sabres are going to settle down next period, and the Leafs are going to cool down. The goalie already had two shakey plays and we had a couple of good shifts at the end.

 

This W is going to be sweet.

Love the optimism, I'm jumping on board. Sabres 6 - Laughs 5, in regulation, Jost with a dirty game winner.

UPL is garbage.  He needs to go. 

Ugh he kind of won us the last game in case you have forgotten. Granted, I can’t wait for the Levy era in a couple of years

No, because Levi will be in goal with a slim chance of Comrie. 

But we need 2 defenders.

Correct me if I am wrong, this then means you believe Levi will be good enough next season to allow for winning playoff series to be a realistic goal? 
 

Of course, under the assumption we add the defensive additions you are referring to

Maybe it Jost had skated harder he could have covered ROR.

I’m sorry I’m missing this game. Ok not really.

I endorse this optimism. There's a lot of hockey left to play. There would be nothing sweeter tonight than to turn all of the TSN and ESPN talking heads into mumbling nimrods.

Some interesting conversation pieces here. Here’s my take:

Team defense is garbage including UPL. No point saying he is anything else just because we have nothing else.

There won’t be a lot going on at the deadline for Buffalo. No point giving up pieces for a barely bubble team who would get bounced out in the first round.

I don’t blame people for not buying tickets. A half season of hope doesn’t undue 10+ years of garbage.

DG is a player development guy, not a coach. Again, no point denying it just because we don’t have anything else to turn to.

I wonder what they talk about in the locker room after a period like that?

Right now, I'm envisioning a Bull Durham meeting on the pitchers mound moment..... 🤣

We definitely have zero claim to being a great hockey city when your arch rival always fills our barn.

Yep. Asplund just got engaged so the wedding shower should be a heated discussion.

I sold mine because it was absolutely predictable how flat this team is in big games… that’s why I am not even upset anymore. I feel terrible for the parents who actually dropped a shiitload to watch this pathetic performance 

[Skibum]

This is the first chance I've had to watch a game in a few weeks. I was really looking forward to it; cleared my schedule, bought some nice beer and cooked up a pork shoulder. And here I sit, after half a period, and I just can't watch one more minute of it.

Tonight is just more evidence… Problem is KA is committed to DG for the next couple years at least… Granato will need to grow his game with the kids…

With??! I’m away and checked the score! Come on guys! Spabrespace do better! 
 

Ya, I’m blaming you! Lol
