Bench Spezza for loving up the power play strategy, you're not supposed to pass to an open guy in the slot like that.

Matthews trying to go to the bumper but a) never selling the shot and b) Willy being on his backhand with a guy right in front of him was hilarious

Well much like yesterday against Florida, the Wings are hanging with a team they have no business hanging with. The last few years they'd give up two and just throw their hands up because there was no way they were getting two of their own. I guess you can call that progress.

e: Shutting down a $45 million PP unit and then getting scored on by Jason Spezza's corpse made me chuckle though

That’s actually how the Leafs PP works now, it’s not just the Wings

All goalies do this. That makes me wonder if goalies wear helmets kind of the way players do, like big skullcaps with a merely suggestive chin strap.

Also nice to see you again Johnny T

In the replay the shot did pop off one of the mask straps

Of course goalie masks are unsafe pieces of poo poo so that’s obviously still not great

The Leafs are really adept at chaining together defensive miscues into one honking breakdown.

I do also appreciate Kerfoot's no-look sauce, which now that I think about it, sounds like a health code violation.

Try to visualize them assisting on each other's power play goals, in the same game.

This is a high-level exercise so you might want to start with the basics of envisioning a Leafs power play where the skaters actually move around without the puck.

Bunting is really filling in that Hyman role of guy who has no idea what to do with the puck besides shovel it at the net or around the boards.

The first Leafs forward that realizes they can kick out higher in the slot when Rielly/Sandin come down the boards with the puck will score 60 goals. Instead they will all continue to stand stationary in the crease surrounded by defenders giving the D no play.

I agree with the penalty shot call too. Sid hacks him down before he gets a reasonable chance to control the puck.
