Holl and Marincin are Leafs shut down pair. To shut down McD tonight. They haven't given up a 5 on 5 goal in something like 4 games.

Connor McDavid's 1st period: 9:10 T.O.I., no one tell darts.



Extrapolated for the game, that's 27:30 T.O.I.
The horror, the horror !!

I believe that, due to the wear and tear, playing that length of time in a single game will shorten his career by about 9 minutes and 32 seconds of playing time. Shit like that will catch up to you before you know it.

24:49 T.O.I.
I don't see how a player, at 22 years of age can possibly keep up that pace.
He'll surely break down by the time he's 40.

He wasn't very *productive either, only 1 goal tonight.





*He had 3 assists as well.
Probably from being so selfish and spending all that extra time on the ice.

Edm's big boy(s) beat the Leafs big boys tonight. Too much McD for Leafs to handle. All 24 minutes and 49 seconds of him.

His first goal in Toronto, the Leafs have done a good job containing McDavid until now. But Holy man, what a goal.

Muzzin and Holl did well containing last game in Edm. Marincin is no Muzzin. He always goes unclaimed when left unprotected is all you need to know.

Riley made it easy by not taking the body.

For anyone who subscribes to The Athletic (well worth the money, to me), there's an article on Morgan Rielly in today's edition.
MR44 has been playing hurt the entire season, they wouldn't give specifics, but it's a lower body injury.
He's now feeling less pain than any point in the season.
That could (does) explain his non~Norris~like level play this year.
He's still a better option than, say, the 7-9th rated Dman in the organization.

My guess is a hip issue.

You make it sound so easy. Sure, he's easy to catch. Just chase him down and hit him.

He didn't have to chase him down, be was coming at him. He failed to follow the coaches order we all got as kids- forget the puck and take the body. If McDavd tried that on Scott Stevens or even Sylvain Lefebvre, they would have to scrape him off the ice.

Is he ever going to establish himself as a regular NHL Dman?
Will he establish himself as a respectable depth defenseman who can be counted on to play respectably as a fill-in when they have injuries on the blue line?

who will never be claimed when put on the waiver wire tells you all you need to know. There's a reason they never put Holl on waivers last year.

Unusual Marlie game tonight as they forfeit the game to Texas. One of the Marlie assistant coaches suffered a medical emergency and was rushed to hospital just before game time, as a result Dubas decided the players were too shaken up to play the game and as a result it was forfeited to Texas. The game result will go down as a 1-0 win for Texas.
