GDT #19 - Leafs @ Pens, 7 pm - Revenge of the Jocks

[Preston]

Flip Domi or Krok for Robertson on the PP.

 

[CRL]

2 unit > 1 unit

He has gone through these shit long stretches in the past before going fucking wild and leaving us wondering why he was so bad before. I get fooled every time so even though I'm tempted to tell him to fuck off I'm betting he'll be fine. But yeah the playoff thing is a fair criticism tho.

It is, but no more so than any of the other 4 - Marner leads them all in playoff scoring b

 

[CRL]

Still don’t understand why they signed fat face for another 5 years, team is not progressing for 2 seasons

His stats post game 3 or 4 (I forget which) are wild in a very bad way. Could be dumb luck but he has fairly consistently faded in every series.

Yeah but so has everybody

 

[mbow30]

The leafs gap control in the neutral zone is so bad. That’s a systems thing.

Mostly M&M. Nylander has scored some big goals. And he's been pretty consistently ppg (similar to his season stats) since that year he got signed in December and showed up jacked as fuck and completely off balance and was absolute shit.

Ya nylanders been a bit better in games 5-6-7 but also not great (3 g in those 8 gp over the past 3 playoffs).

He has met, not exceeded my expectations yeah, unlike the others. This year the expectations are higher tho, especially if he gets a bit fat contract.

Natstattrick has the nerdies pretty even.

evolving has the leafs dominating at 60+%.

 

[mbow30]

Man rewatching that first goal last night - holy fuck mo. He’s got covid or jet lag or something.

for future reference the natstat numbers are kinda the "xGF for dummies" version.

Whats the diff

 

[zeke]

not 100% but I'm pretty sure the natstat model is just very basic shot location.

evolving tries to take much more into account like shot type and i think pre-shot passing info and stuff.

 

[zeke]

willy's blowing the zone way too quickly.

 

[zeke]

of all the puck over glass penalties that might be the worst.

 

[zeke]

huge draw kampf
