How many times did Reimer get beaten up high from the outside? 3 out 4? First goal was not his fault.
He only stopped 23 shots. But, it was his first game back. Glad to see the Leafs score more than 3 goals in a game. Lupul and Frattin should be back soon.

enjoy it while you can. this team is going nowhere with either one of these goalies.
Thanks for the heads up, but for now ....



Leafs Win !


and

Hold a Playoff spot !!
 
Reimer's first game back, cut him some slack. Back to back nights for the team and they found a way to rebound for a win, on the road again. So far this year they've rebounded nicely after a loss and avoided those crushing tailspins. Overall the lineup is deeper and more balanced.

Speaking of Lupul and Fratton (and maybe Gardiner down the road), where do you think they should play in the lineup? Who should come out when they come back presuming more injuries don't make the decision for Carlyle? Kadri and McCarther are getting on the scoreboard too frequently of late to mess with that combo - so where?

I wasn't necessarily criticizing him, but I noticed a trend of letting in high ones in this game. Obviously his performance was better before the layoff. He'd been pretty solid.

Leafs will do fine overall they are still in top 10..... Just fine.


but dammit...Phaneuf makes me shudder. Skates in cement. Loses the puck too often. Fail to battle at key times.

in my mind.....overpaid.

Weekend off.
New Jersey on Monday. It will a tough game. The Devils are not the team they once were, but they are still a good team.
This would be a confidence builder.


Go Leafs !

Leafs win ! And they only really showed up for the third.
Reimer was good, but still showing a little bit of rust.
Kadri is hot and I hope when Fratten returns they pickup where they left off.
Just waiting on Lupul now. A move must be made to bring Gardiner back.

Ottawa up next on Wednesday.



Go Leafs !

If I were Coach Carlye, I would start Scrivens against Ottawa and Reimer against Boston. I think Scrivens did fine last game against Ottawa even though he froze the puck but he wasn't the guy who lost the faceoff. Wish we were able to keep feisty Mike Brown for the Boston game in Boston.

Battle of Ontario tonight !

Ottawa visits the ACC.
I hear Fratten will be back. The Leafs are getting healthy.
Need Lupul to return now and maybe the Leafs can secure a playoff spot and just get in and you never know.

Montreal got thumped by the Islanders last night.


Go Leafs !

What do you think the Leafs will do with JVR when Lupul gets back ? He has developed quite the chemistry with Kessel .
