We knew this was going to be a terrible night when one of the first images we see is of Alex Ovechkin shooting a snot rocket out of his nose...this will haunt us for years to come.
We are currently trying to forget the first period of this game. It was abysmal. That first goal *shiver* well lets not think about that.
We are quite mad at Toskala at the moment..we understand last year with the injury and the shitty defense (not like it was any good tonight but still..) but this year we don't want to hear any excuses..we want to see some production making that show stopping save. Which he did have one tonight, but it was a TAD too late. Once GStav came in, we thought some crazy shit was going to go down, and we would finally start playing well...we did too, even got a goal! Insane right. But no..defensive breakdown after defensive breakdown and what do you know, we've got another goal for Washington.
This was a really hard game to watch, therefore a very hard game for us to write about so it's going to be a short post.
The leafs finally came alive in the third, Gstav was solid, the 'd' was contributing, Luke Schenn got an assist all was going well..by then though it was hard to make the full comeback complete. We are happy we got 4 goals on this night when Varlamov was doing a very, very good job in net. The effort to try and comeback will not go unnoticed. We applaud you for trying, but would appreciate it if when we play Ottawa, we play the whoooole 60 minutes...please, with a cherry on top =)
On a much, much brighter note Battle of the Blades starts tomorrow and we will most definitely be posting about it..because when are we ever going to see Tie Domi figure skating ever again. We plan on taking full advantage of this opportunity and will fill you all in!
That's all for tonight, this game took a lot out of us.
Go Leafs.
p.s. if you don't know..we call Ovie a caveman, the resemblance is staggering
