They got the win and that is all that counts.
Smith was outstanding. He was the reason they won. Another great game by him. I am sure I will be told how it's a hot streak and he will fall off, complain about management, blah, blah, blah. I really don't care to hear the same message once again. The guy is playing great. Clearly he is doing something different and it's working. He's working his ass off. He's a massive reason they are where they are. He wants to win so badly and seems to almost take it personally when a goal gets by him which I am digging and I think it's rubbing off on the rest of the team including McD. In my opinion, I do not necessarily think this team hated to lose in the past as much as they should have but it looks different this year and I think Smith has something to do with it. At 39 I do not think Smith can keep what he is doing long term but could he do it in a shorten season? Yes he could. We have seen other teams goalies over the years have that one off season where they play out of their minds. Hopefully it's happening here. It's enjoyable to watch games right now and Smith is part of that reason. I hope it keeps going.
Nurse - Holy cow. He has more goals and as many points as Nuge. He has said with the lose of Klefbom, he felt he needed to step up. Well if this is the dman that comes from Klefbom being out, I am not sure I want Klefbom back. He's been fantastic.
The bottom 6 I thought was very good. Khaira was 62% on faceoffs, Haas was 67%. How the hell did that happen?
Good for Turris to get a lucky on. He needed it. I thought he was decent.
Did Nuge play? Time to put him with Leon so Leon can get him to score again. Just not happening for him. I guess the nice thing is his price point should be dropping like a rock.
Time to break up McD and Leon. It was fun but this team is better when they are apart. Save putting them together when you are down a goal.
I am liking Kassian's game. If they split up McD and Leon, I'd look to move him up.
I am sure all the Leafs media guys and fans will be puffing their chest out saying they stopped the McD-Leon combo for the most part. Well they do it by the refs not calling a damn thing. I saw a replay this morning of McD trying to skate and some Leaf blatantly grabbing him and holding him up. McD shockingly reacted so you know it was bad. I think he needs to say something publicly about the refs. I know he is all about being respectful but enough is enough. People tune in to watch McD, Leon, Matthews, Marner, etc, show their skill. They don't tune in to watch 3rd and 4th liners go WWE on the stars because that's the only way they can keep up. If the league wants to grow the game, let the stars play. Call the damn rules!! In the beginning, yes there will be an insane amount of penalties but guys will figure it out REAL quick or be out of the line up. The NBA does it with their stars and look at their game.
