Morphinity 2.0 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 (8) Toronto Maple Leafs vs. (9) Columbus Blue Jackets REGULAR SEASON RECORDS: Maple Leafs: 36-25-9, 81 points (.579) Blue Jackets: 33-22-15, 81 points (.579) HEAD-TO-HEAD: Toronto 1-0-1 Oct. 4: Maple Leafs 4, Blue Jackets 1, at CBJ Oct. 21: Blue Jackets 4, Maple Leafs 3 (OT), at TOR [table=width: 650, align: center] [tr] [td]WHAT'S CHANGED:[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Maple Leafs: Defenseman Jake Muzzin (hand) and forward Ilya Mikheyev (wrist) likely will be in the lineup. Muzzin missed the last six games before the season was paused, and Mikheyev the last 31[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]Blue Jackets: Defenseman Seth Jones and forward Oliver Bjorkstrand each will be in the lineup after fracturing his ankle in February. The Blue Jackets were 3-5-6 without Jones and 3-3-2 without Bjorkstrand. Defensemen Dean Kukan (knee) and Ryan Murray (undisclosed), and forwards Cam Atkinson (ankle), Alexandre Texier (back), and Nathan Gerbe (groin) likely will be ready to return.[/td] [/tr] [/table] [table=width: 650, align: center] [tr] [td]ANALYSIS:[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td]"The Blue Jackets are a different team with Jones in the lineup. He's their top defenseman who plays in all situations and plays with Zach Werenski for one of the most formidable defense pairs in the NHL. The Maple Leafs counter by getting Muzzin back. He's the most experienced defenseman and one of two Stanley Cup champions in the series (Toronto forward Kyle Clifford, each with the Los Angeles Kings). This series is a tale of differing styles. Columbus was tied for third in the NHL in goals-against per game (2.61); Toronto was third in goals per game (3.39)."[/td] [/tr] [tr] [td] https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-return-to-play-eastern-conference/c-317029512[/td] [/tr] [/table] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fletch Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 I tuned in for the third period when I saw Leafs were ahead 3-1. Given their playoff history it didn't feel safe. Different coach, same script Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fletch Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Remarkable to score three in the final five minutes of third with the extra attacker and not give up an empty net goal. what a crazy series Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc Posted August 8, 2020 Share Posted August 8, 2020 Remarkable to score three in the final five minutes of third with the extra attacker and not give up an empty net goal. what a crazy series Have rangers scored 3 goals with their goalie pulled in the entire history of the franchise? Because I honestly only remember empty net goals and that one Kreider tying goal where Lundqvist is skating towards the bench (but still on the ice lol).

BrooksBurner Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Now the Leafs are out. Wonder if they make any big changes...like Marner or Matthews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karan Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Columbus is such a frustrating team to play against in the playoffs. I wouldn't put it past them to upset the Lightning again like last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sod16 Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 Annual ritual: scan Canadian media the day after Toronto is eliminated and take in the melt down. This assures that it will be at least 54 years between cups for them. Good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
