Very impressed with the Prime stream, love how they left the natural crowd and goal horn volume in unlike other broadcasts. The cherry on top would be to have Joe Bowen on for Prime Leafs games.
@jadenippersiel912 I wish Bowen and Ralph did every game on TV. Best duo in hockey play by play imo. Sometimes, I listen to the radio with the TV on mute, lol.
@TheTaoZun the leafs were fast and forechecked all night. Our goalie was better than tampas. Our special teams were clicking and tampas was dry. I'm sure it will be a better game next time. Nick Paul turns into an all star when he comes to Toronto. He always scores.
@commissioner1969 Technically, he didn't score tonight. It was a Benoit own goal. Never understood why the NHL credits players when they don't actually score. Soccer does it right.
Had some 'Where is Stamkos?' chants in the arena after that 2nd-3rd period power play ended. Didn't make it onto the broadcast too well, but tons of fun.
Nobody is talking about that 5 on 3 pk. Honestly the best penalty kill I've seen from the Leafs in a long time. Tanev is exactly what we needed a guy who can help stop the damn puck. Lets just hope he stays healthy.
Tampa’s the best team they played just had a good night and Vasilevsky didn’t. Also the style of play the Leafs have had this year seemed to neutralize Tampa’s usually stellar offense, next game will be a war
It's really too bad about the shaky officiating. The 5 on 3 was just bad, but the handpass miss sucked too. Just plain bad call. Still good win for the Leafs. This time up against a really good goalie they got the offense sorted out. They've played well throughout the season. If Woll plays tomorrow good luck to him.
Normally I don't complain about the officiating because bad calls happen to every team, but tonight it was atrocious. Imagine it was a playoff game and the Leafs lost. There would be rioting in the city.
Yeah, his contract is going to be what sinks them the most, he’d be just fine if they had a 1A 1B tandem, no they just play Vasy till the wheels fall off each season.
On the hand pass topic. Looked like he was about to go backhand/forehand for his own shot, but then turned it into a little push pass All in all, good work Leafs. It's not often Vasy gets pulled
Since the NHL doesn't have "own goals" like soccer, it's because Nick Paul was the last Tampa Bay player to touch the puck before it went into the net and he got the puck via Chaffee and Hedman.
Cause those games are the Canadian broadcasts sub-licensed to Amazon through Rogers. We still have to use ESPN+ or NHL Network (if it’s a game they carry for that night) in the States
I just want them to do well in the playoffs. They have to keep the mindset of win at all costs and playing in a system. Their mindset must be the Stanley Cup or die trying.
Good bye Tampa. I think it's time to find a new goalie. Whatever magic Vaselevsky had during those cup runs is gone. They'll get they're lunch handed to them in Jersy tomorrow night.
