GDT - Caps @ Leafs | Beginning of the post-Carlyle-era | 7:00PM EST TSN

But we got more shots than them? How about outscored 6-2?

When's the last time we outshot the opposition?
What are the odds of winning a lot of games when the opponent more than doubles your shots against?
Sure, we lost this game, but the effort was much better. We were not going to go anywhere with a consistent 40+ shots against game after game.
 
This game was shit, stats schmats. But we got more shots than them? How about outscored 6-2?

unless we suddenly start sucking at special teams, or bernier suddenly turns into an .800sv% goalie, there's not much to be upset about in this one.
 
So are we results or effort/systems focused? We did a lot right tonight and mostly lost due to shit goaltending.
 
The bar is low. Very low.

Funny stuff .... special teams. Leafs and Caps were 0/2 on the pp. How did that affect the game other than crapping the bed and giving up a shorty?
 
That game was at best mildly encouraging.

Truth is, you have to give Horachek at least a few weeks to get things moving in a better direction. If they're still putting in a lackluster effort and making many a brainfart come February, time to start shedding the dead weight.

Ominous.

Hopefully that's just a reflection of Holland being out and Kadri coming back from injury.

:shocked:
 
What Leaf player has the balls to get into other player's faces? That's the guy you need right now. Someone that isn't afraid to call out anyone, not even Kessel.
