And again, welcome across all platforms, wherever you’re watching from. Welcome to the party. The Leafs and the Lightning going to tear it up. Going to have a big one tonight. Let’s talk because there’s so much to talk about going into tonight’s matchup. And before we get into the lineup tonight, we got to remind you that boy, the Leafs, they weren’t looking good. They were sitting in the bottom of the basement in the Atlantic Division. Well, now they’ve moved up a couple spots and heck, they are two wins away from that top spot. Tampa at 34 points, sitting in spot number one. Toronto with 30 points, sitting way down below him. It’s a log jam in the East and it’s anybody’s game. All you got to do is win a couple. Toronto, they’ve won three of their last five. Tampa Bay only winning two of their last five, but they’re getting some healthy bodies back. Hey there, Mary. Welcome in LA’s place. Good to see you. Welcome in. And again, welcome in everybody. Thank you so much for tuning in. As you are coming in, do me a favor. Hit that like button for us. Hit that thumbs up because it really helps.

And I big I got to thank everybody. Your messages your messages all week have just been so inspirational and I appreciate everybody looking out making sure we’re doing okay. Reggie, what’s going on? Welcome in. Good to see you. And again, thank you so much everybody. Hey there Beth. Welcome in. Go Leafs. Go. Let’s do it. Who’s in? Who’s out? Who’s playing? What are the lines? We wants to know. We gots to know. The Lightning. We’re going to start with them. They are 1610 and two coming into tonight. They’re going with the following. Hey there, Dave Boy. Welcome in. It is Brendan Hegel. Hegel the bagel as we like to call him. He’s going to be with Anthony Cerelli and Nikita Cooerov. Coocher just getting back in the lineup. We got Jake Gensel and Nick Paul online too. They’re going to be with another returning superstar in Braden Point. Rick, what’s going on Rick? Hope you’re doing well. Coming back, renewing that membership. Rick, thank you so much. and good to see you. I hope you’re doing well. So, Gensel Point and Paul the second line. On the third, it’s going to be Gurgensson’s with Yanni Gourd and Ponis Homeberg ex Maple Leaf. Ponis Homeberg, Homie Homeberg in the lineup tonight. We got Conclaves, Finley, and Borkstrand. One of my favorite hockey names of all time. Going to be wrapping it up on the fourth line. Over on the D side, Victor Hedman is going to be with Croser. We got Charlie Edward Dowstice with Emil Liberg. and then Radish with JJ Moser. Those going to be the lineups tonight. And it looks like really the starting goalender we’re going to get tonight is Jonas Jansen. So that’s what it’s looking to be. Jonas Jansen going to get the puck here to start it up for Tampa Bay. AU Triton coming in with the super chat. Sorry Leaf fans tonight. It’s all about Tampa Bay. We’ll see. AU. We will see. My good man. I got something in my eye. We will see. But thank you for the super chat. I appreciate you, good buddy. Over for the Maple Leafs. It’s going to be the first line of Matthew Ny, Austin Matthews, and Max Stoy. And can I tell you how good has Matthew Ny been? Oh, such dirty moves. Matthew Ny looking amazing. On the second line, it’s going to be Eastston Cowan with John Tavvaris and William Knander. We got Steven Lorren in Scotty Lton with Cali Yarnrock. On the third line, Cali Arn Crocs slotting back into the lineup. And on the fourth, Dakota Joshua with Nick Wah and Bobby McMahon. And I tell you, when we start ragging on players like we do, they end up getting hot. And I tell you, Joshua, Wah, and Laden all having a couple of pretty darn good games. On the D side, it’s going to be Morgan Riley with Oliver Ecman Larson, Jake McCay with newcomer, although not so new anymore. Troy Stetcher, and then Simone Benwis going to be paired up with Dakota Mermis, and Dennis Hill to be the Hilda Beast going to be the starter for the Maple Leafs here tonight. So, the question is, when is Wall coming back? That is a great question. He was only supposed to be out a week or so. So, while I don’t have an exact date, it’s not going to be long. Hey there, Joshua. Good to see you, Michael. What’s going on? We’ll have to take a look. I haven’t heard of the of a big trade yet. Uh, just got Mart. Oh, we’ll have to take a look. We will have to take a look and see. Hey, David, welcome in. Glad you’re feeling better. Yeah, David, I was I was pretty under the weather, but feeling much better now. Thank you for that. Hey, Rob, what’s going on? Welcome in. You’ve been vacationing, but you’re back. We’re glad to have you back. Jamal, what’s going on? Loose. Lightning loose. I love it. Steve, what’s up? Welcome. maybe this weekend. Yeah, we knew Waller wasn’t out for a long time, so I I hope he does. I hope he does come back. Hey there, Jacob. Welcome in. Good to see you. And woo. All right, so those are the lineups. Now, the big question is, how do these two teams stack up against each other? Because with the Lightning in top spot, they must be so much better than Toronto, right? No. Well, yes, they have some players coming back from injury. When we look at their stats, they’re pretty close. Both teams continue to struggle with the man advantage on the power play. Toronto wet 14% 30th in the NHL. Tampa Bay just a couple ticks of a percentage above them at 15.9%. On the penalty kill, Toronto 81.5%, not bad, but Tampa Bay doing a really good job at 86.7%. So Toronto not very good on the power play and Tampa Bay very good on the penalty kill means well you got to step it up. Leafs got to step it up. DV8 what’s going on? Welcome in 89. No 89 tonight. Nikki Robertson riding the pine tonight. Coach actually was asked about Nick Robertson in his game. And what coach said is Nick Robertson as of late has kind of lost his edge, lost his step a little bit. Doesn’t have that same jump. But at the same time, coach turned around and said, “Well, you know what? Part of that is because of ice time. Ice time comes into play in moments like that.” And it’s uh it’s kind of funny to see, you know, coach saying Nick Robertson needs some help. Had some struggles. However, the uh the ice time definitely a factor in there. Uh but let’s see. We got Michael Drama. What’s going on? Going for those bolts tonight. Duke, what’s up? Jeffrey, hello there. Bart, what’s up? Welcome in. Got $100 on the lightning to win by two. Going to pick them to go ahead by two. Nice. Good luck. Hey Tony, welcome in. Good to see you again. Thanks everybody for tuning in. Do make sure you hit that thumbs up for us. Hit that like button. So, let’s keep going down. The Maple Leafs number one in the NHL in faceoff percentage. They’ve moved up to top spot 57.1%. That’s pretty slick. Tampa Bay on the other hand, all the way down at 30th at 46%. Now, we know faceoffs doesn’t mean you’re going to win hockey games, but the better you do in the faceoff, the better chances you have, especially in the offensive zone if you can shoot right off the draw. When we talk about the goalenders, and unfortunately, we’re not getting the stellar matchup of Vasilelesi versilelesi verses, but Yonis Jansen is not too shabby. 5-4 at 285 goals against an 896 save percentage is well not the best in the world but hey he’s doing okay. Dennis Hillby he has eight games played. He’s only won one lost two. He’s got two overtime losses. He’s only started four games. He’s uh he’s racking it up. His save percentage right now 927 and a 251 goals against. So, Hill to be the monster putting up some decent numbers and hopefully that is a trend that can continue in the right direction. Where does Tavaris stand in that faceoff percentage? Probably pretty darn high. I don’t know if I have that not that stat right off the cuff here, but Tavvaris in the faceoff has been stellar. He’s been the guy that Toronto relies on a lot. I want to see Douglas verse Matthews in a scrum. Oh man, I’d like to see Matthews wake up is what I’d like to see. We know he’s been improving. He’s been looking better, but we’re going to need him to get back on his game. Hey there, ready. What’s going on? Welcome in. Good to see you. Welcome in everybody. If I have missed you, I will certainly get you as the game moves along in Big Rick’s hockey sticks. Thank you for the follow. We appreciate that. And uh boy, it has been it has been a wild ride as of late. I’ll fill you in as we get a little closer to game time here. The Tampa Bay Lightning over their last 10 games 73 and 0. And those three losses just happen to be well against the Islanders twice and the Pittsburgh Penguins in their last three games. So they’re on a three-game losing streak. The Maple Leafs 53 and two in their last 10. They have that loss of course that shootout loss against Montreal. Hey Taz, what’s going on? Uh Carolina, Florida, Pittsburgh, Toronto beat with Columbus and St. Lewis as well. Now that we know who’s playing tonight, we know how the teams compare against each other. We’re all set and ready to rock. But we need to know who are the officials for tonight’s game. Should we expect a well called game or is this something we’re going to be kicking and screaming about all night long? Well, the officials tonight, Franuis St. Lauron, I actually like him. We got Graham Skiller as well on the line calling the icons in the off sides. is Kyle Flemington and Matt McFersonson. So, if you’re a fan of any of those, you’re in luck. If you’re not, well, I’m sorry, but this should be an important game. It is an important game as the Maple Leafs look to move up a little bit more in the standings. We got a whole bunch of teams lock tied at 30 points in the Atlantic. 34 points is the leader with Tampa Bay. Toronto needs to step up and pick up the two points tonight. They need a couple of points because big things will come. They’ve been doing well. They’ve been playing better. They’ve been working it and things are lighting it up. A couple of weeks ago, everybody on the internet was ripping this team apart, saying, “They’re done. They’re done. They’re done. They’re done.” Well, hey, they put their heads down. They started to improve. They started to get some wins. And let’s see how they can keep it going. Hey there, Mega. What’s going on? Welcome in. Five months as membership. Good to see you, Mega. Hey, Alfredo. welcome in as well. Good to have you along for the ride. Mack, what’s up? Was rooting for the Bengals to beat Buffalo. Those two Burls. Quick interceptions for Buffalo were brutal. You know what? I didn’t even get a chance to see the game. Hey there, Dallas. What’s going on? Welcome in. Brandon in the house. What’s up, number one stunner? What’s up? Welcome in. Talking about number one stunner. Well, hey, how about the Edmonton Oilers goender Steuart Skinner from stunner to Skinner. Big rumors swirling around right now about Skinner. Where could Skinner end up going? Where could he end up playing? We’re hearing Nashville potentially. There’s a new rumor heating up about St. Louis. Skinner potentially going to St. Louis. Bennington potentially coming back to Edmonton. Oil is looking to make an upgrade in the goalending situation. And that is one of the hot stories going around right now is what could happen with Steuart Skinner and how will the Oilers upgrade goalending situation? Users go Kings. Go Kings. Sass says Kings listen they Kings are a hot team too. Those guys talk about up and down. The Kings they put up some some big plays but hey they got a little bit injury bug right now if I recall. Uh well Skinner sucks. So, probably Columbus, Edmonton, or Calgary. That’s funny. Theo Sam Eagle, what’s up? Oh, my friend is at uni. Theo, are you doing epic? I hope you’re doing epic. But that’s awesome, man. Have so much fun. And I assume I assume you’re going to the other parks as well. So, when you do, have an absolute blast, my friend. Enjoy. Uh, let’s see here. Gerald, what’s up? Welcoming. Good evening. Hope all is well. All is well here. Epic is on Wednesday. Nice. I’m so jealous. It’s going to be awesome. Going to be awesome. You know what else is going to be awesome? It’s tonight’s game, the Leafs and the Lightning. For those that don’t know, my name is Sam. This is the Samuel B12 experience live on the SB12 Sports Network. Make sure you hit that thumbs up button. Make sure you hit that subscribe. We’re going to be rocking and rolling here for Leaf Games tomorrow. By the way, we can’t talk about today without talking about tomorrow. Well, we could, but hey, we’ll talk about tomorrow. The Toronto Raptors back in action against the New York Knicks. And it is the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup. We’ll be live. That one is a bit later, 8:30 start time tomorrow. So, we will be here tomorrow for the Raptors and the Knicks if you want to come hang out and have some fun. Hey Joan, welcome in. Good evening. Lisa Terry in the house. Good to see you as well. Kevin, what’s up? Welcome to the party. Now, the monster, he’s getting himself set. The Maple Leafs need focus. Tampa Bay in that top spot. And Tampa Bay is a team the Leafs historically have had some difficulties with their team leaders. Brendan Hegel leading the way in goals with 17. Cucharov leads the way in assists with 22 and of course in points with 34 points. I mean, Cutroof is one of the top point getters every single year. Brendan Hegel, one of these guys who likes the game-winning goals. He’s got four of them at this point this season. And that is pretty darn impressive for the Toronto Maple Leafs, their leaders. It’s John Tavvaris leading the way in goals. 13 goals for JT. Matty Ny leading the way in assists with 21 assists. And William Knander leads the team in points, 32 points. And of course, you can’t count out Bobby McMahon. He’s got two game-winning goals himself. And I got to tell you, I like uh I like Bobby McMahon and what he’s bringing a whole lot. Is it just me or has Vasileleski only been playing forever? Yeah, he has been playing for a while. He has certainly been playing for a while. Um you know, he’s had his ups and downs, but listen, he is one of the best goalenders in the league. No, no doubt. Hey there, Bradley. Welcome in. Anthony, how’s it going, Toby? What’s up? Need Oel to deliver for your fantasy team. There you go. Uh, you know what, Joshua? I didn’t get to the game. I had to give my tickets away. I was so sick. I thought maybe there was an outside chance I would feel better and good enough to go, but nope. Thursday in the afternoon, we had to pull the plug and get rid of the tickets. Just was not healthy enough to go. Now, that game, it was a fun game. The Raptors, they lost it. the Lakers with a pocket three right at the buzzer to win it. The Lakers beat the Raptors in that one, but yeah, unfortunately had to give them away. Uh, do they have four out of six or am I wrong? Uh, four, are you talking uh the Leafs? Four out of six in the last their last few games. Is that what your question is geared towards? They are uh three of the last five games. Vasileles is injured tonight. Yes, he is not expected to play. Not sure on a return time for uh for the vassie one, but he is definitely one that can turn the tables. He is awesome. Let’s talk about some of these leaf injuries here. Chaining yourself to Scott until they sign the deal with Bo, right? No kidding, Dallas. Uh boil water, teaspoon of Vix Vapor Rub, towel over the head, inhale. Oo, you know, I got to tell you, the Vix Vapor Rub, that stuff does magic. Hey there, Thomas. Welcome in. Welcome in, Ryan. How’s it going? Welcome in. Just go for skating practice. Uh, Raptors made history. They held LeBron James to under 10 points. That’s right. First time since uh 2007, LeBron had gone almost,300 games scoring 10 points or more, and the Raptors shut him down. Hey there, Brian. Welcome in. All right, let’s talk about it. Chris Tanv, he’s still out. Uh, Chris Tanv is improving, but still has some ways to go. Joseph Wall, we’re expecting to get him back this weekend. Brennan Carlo had some complications and Marshall Rafi who has yet to play game got injured uh quite some time ago. Um he is getting closer. He was actually skating uh with the red jersey on working out looking good. So hopefully we’ll get Marshall Rafi back. I would love the Leafs to bring him up and put him in to see him get going because that would be that would be huge. I’m a big Marshall Rafi fan and I would love to see him to get into some of the some of the games here. Of course, Toronto, they’ve got a pretty uh a pretty loaded lineup, if you will, and their size is something that they’ve been growing with. They’re getting bigger and bigger, but they have to start using their size. We know Tampa Bay has got some skill. We know they’ve got some speed. We know they can muck it up as well. So, this is one where Toronto really needs to get things going. They need to use the physicality to try to get Tampa off the game because if they can get Tampa to start getting involved in the little cheap shots and dirty plays and that’s going to take away their speed and then Toronto will have a good opportunity to jump all over them. Shower room is more happening than the fans at Scotia Bank. Yeah, I tell you Bart, the Scotia Bank is quiet. It’s quiet around there. Dan, what’s up buddy? Good to see you. Glad you’re back. Thank you. I appreciate that. And I am feeling much much much better as we get set as we’re getting ready. We’re moments away. Moments away from this one going as Triton bringing up the Thunderbug. Getting the Thunderbug in the house. Wow. Boy, there’s only one way we can combat the Thunderbug. And there it is. Carlton the Bear coming up saying, “Wake up Toronto. Let’s shut the Thunderbug down.” Cry, what’s going on? Welcome in. Jaggers, hello. Good to see you. Brian, what’s up? Welcome to the party. If you’re a first-time watcher, make sure you do come in and say hello and join in the conversation. Wayne, I’ve missed y’all as well. I’ve missed y’all as well. This was a tough week. It was a very, very, very, very tough week. I don’t know what happened. I was feeling fine all weekend and then all of a sudden, Monday came and woo, it was no bueno. Yeah, Monday was not a good day. And then Tuesday, I took the first sick day in a long time and a spent spent the week on the couch and I’m glad glad to be back up in Adam because that was that was pretty gnarly. Whatever it was, it was pretty gnarly. Hey there, Morgan. What’s up? Who do you want on the Blue Jays? Tucker and Bashette and Billinger, please Blue. Yeah, you know, listen, I have no problem with any of those. Any of those. I’m not sure if Billinger is going to come. I’ve heard some rumors about him in other places, but hey, until the ink is on the dotted line, they’re all in play, right? So, it would be nice. It would be nice to see them come. Hey, Terry, welcome in. Welcome to the party. And yeah, Blue Jays, they’re not done. They’re going to make some more moves for sure. I’m very, very excited what they’re going to do. Chris, what’s going on? Welcome in. Are you from North Carolina and NC? No, I’m from Toronto. Born and raised. Spent all my life here in the six. Uh yeah, just uh just outside the city, not not downtown, but love love all my Toronto teams and uh I’m I’m a Leap fan, a Raptor fan, an Argo fan. I’m from Bourne to the end of the road. I will be with them the whole time. Frenchman, what’s going on? Go ABS, welcome in. Saw Tampa is not changing the Cooch and Heggo line even though Point is back. Yeah, Point is going to come in on the second line. He’s going to be there on the second and uh we’ll see. Listen, it’s a d. They’re a dangerous team. They got a lot of firepower in a lot of different ways, but so does Toronto. Um, goalending is going to be important tonight. Goalending is going to be absolutely stellar. Whichever tendee is going to come out on top tonight is going to going to make the difference. Jonas Jansen, you know, five and four with an 896 save percentage. He’s going to be tested and tested regularly tonight. Toronto has to get shots, right? One area where they have certainly struggled throughout the season is getting shots on net. Well, tonight they got to get lots on shots on net. Hill to be with the 927 save percentage. I like that. He’s got to be big now. He is 6 foot7 in. Yeah. Yeah. Get it out of your system now. Six. And then he’s 6’7 in. He’s a big man, but uh he covers a lot of net. But he can get himself small. And I’ve seen him do this where he gets so low in his crouch, he needs to stay and be big. Brian, you’re in Missaga. Nice. Nice. Uh, let’s see here. Uh, we got Chris, welcome. We just got off work. Tanv not back as of yet. Not back yet. Florida game. I saw Joshua. That was funny. Listen, Saturday, the three games I watched, all three went to overtime and it was funny. I got to give the Florida Panthers guys credit. I loved Yes, they won it uh on 67 weekend. They won it 67 in overtime and I love Bennett and Marawn doing the 67 celebration. It was pretty darn funny. Pretty darn funny. Hey Richard, welcome in from Ajax. I’ve been to Ajax once or twice. Very cool. Adriana, welcome in. Go Packers wants those packs to take it in. 67 got nothing on 8675309. Love it. Love it. H big huggity little one. Oh. Oh, I see a conversation. All right. I’m just I’m reading through and didn’t pick up the other one. Trap, what’s going on? Oh, a little voice crack there. Apparently, puberty is coming around again. Hey there, Trap. Welcome in. Didn’t think the Jays need to go out and get a big bat. They have enough power in the lineup. They should look at resigning Bo term. They do, Travis. They need to They need to get them locked up. They absolutely need to get him locked up. Um it it’s the longer it goes, it makes me more and more and more nervous. They’re showing us a shot from inside the building now. They’re on the ice. They’re just getting ready. Did they do the anthems? The anthems are in progress. It is military night here tonight as a lot of the armed forces and the troops in the house tonight. We thank them all for their service. Uh so important. And I love when the Maple Leafs and not just the Maple Leafs, but a lot of sports franchises and organizations do this to honor the Armed Forces. So, tonight, Armed Forces Appreciation Night here in Toronto. So, good on you MLSC and Toronto Maple Leafs for hosting here tonight. Jeremy, what’s going on? Welcome. Get Diazer Suarez. I like Suarez a lot, Jeremy. I’m not going to lie, I like him a lot. Mr. Homegreen, what’s going on? Welcome in. make Willie choose five teams and trade them. So I I’ll tell you I’m a little mixed. I’m a little mixed on on Nelander. Uh so Hill Deb is getting the start tonight. Hill to be is in net for Toronto tonight. Uh so I’ll tell you William Knander is one of those players where it looks like he’s floating around. He’s just kind of cruising. Not much is going on as they have they have folks repelling from the rafters. Folks repelling from the rafters down to the ice surface right now as they’re doing this military celebration. So, a little repelling down which is cool. I guess they’re delivering the ceremonial first puck. Um, but Nelander, you know, he tends to be just coasting around, cruising around, but man, he can score, right? He puts on points. He can put up points and he is putting up points. He leads our team in 24 games, right? Leafs have played 28. This is 29 tonight. 28 games. Knander’s only played 24 and he’s got 32 points. So, whatever he’s doing, it’s working. He’s got only 11 goals. Would like to see his goals a little higher, but he’s got 21 assists. Nelander is finding ways to get points on the board now. He also needs more shots, right? And the team as a whole needs more shots. Nelander only has 53 shots at this point. Hey there, Brian. What’s going on? Welcome in. 53 shots for Nelander at this point where Tavvaris and Austin Matthews are at 85 and 83. So, I would like to see Nelander up with those guys. Maybe not as high, but he should be at least in the 70s for sure. So, Matthews and Tavvaris certainly taking the most shots. One thing Toronto has started doing which has uh improving in their wins, they’re using their defense. They’re passing it back to the point. We’re starting to get some defensive scoring which is great. Riley with four goals, Ecman Larson with four goals. Uh McCabe with three, Ster with a goal. So, we’re starting to get some shots and goals by defense. Riley has 53. Morgan Riley has just as many shots as William Knander does, right? How crazy is that? Willie is just Moody. That’s funny. He It is It is frustrating. And yeah, Moody player. It does come through. It does show like that. That’s That’s a good a good way of of expressing it. Moody. So, they’re getting everybody together at center ice here. Celli gonna come in to take the ceremonial first puck drop here with Austin Matthews. And we’re moments away from getting this game going on. Hey Scott, welcome in. Welcome to the party. Welcome in everybody again. Thank you so much for tuning in and being here this evening.

We will be here tomorrow for the Toronto Raptors and the New York Knicks 8:30 start time. That is going to be an NBA Cup quarterfinal game and then we’ll be here later in the week. I believe the Leafs are back on Thursday if I’m not mistaken. So, we’ll get lots of hockey coming up. But right now, we’re waiting for this when the Leafs and the Lightning. We’re waiting for them to finish their ceremonies. They’ll finish up the anthems and then we will be good to go. Who are you taking is the million-dollar question. Who are you taking for tonight’s game? Is it the Maple Leafs or is it the Tampa Bay Lightning? We got the chat going on. So, make sure you do put it in the chat. Who do you think is going to take this one? Leafs all the way. I hope so. Leafs got to kick it. They got to kick it. It’s okay. We can skip the game. Tampa’s going to win it.

Kevin is going to say go with the Lightning. Taking those Lightning. All right, let me ask you this question then. Let me ask you this question. Is we got some Lightning fans here, some Leaf fans here. What is your score prediction going to be? I’m curious where everybody thinks the score prediction is going to be. Chrisa says it leafs by one in overtime. Heading to overtime tonight. Hey Jose, welcome in. I am doing very well. Thank you so much. Feeling much much better. Lightning using their backup goalie. So are Toronto. So is Toronto after 41 shootout rounds. My goodness. 43 Leafs. Lal says as long as the goalender stands on his head and saves 50 shots. 54 5423. Hope you’re doing well. Steve, welcome in. I am Canadian going 52 Tampa Bay. 65 Tampa in overtime 74. Some big scores here. Everybody’s putting in some big scores. Everyone thinks this one is going to be a big one as well. Mr. Home Green says 4114 4-1. Bradley says, “All right. All right. I get you. I’m kind of I’m in that same mindset. I’m right now I’m in that 34, you know, three 32 43.” I think I agree. It’s going to be a onegoal game, but I think we are going to get some goals tonight. Taz going 3-1. It’s six-7. Pennyless says, “Oh, I was waiting for somebody to put that in.” Driiana says 16-4 Leafs. Could you imagine if they put up another a huge game like that? Hoser Mcpatrick, what’s going on? 4-3 Leafs. There it is. I’m kind of right there with you. Mary’s going 52 4-2 Leafs. 4-3 Leafs. So, we’re kind of all in the same ballpark. We’re kind of all in the same ballpark, which is which is good to see.

T Lewis welcoming Hilderby made one save, two save, gets behind him and it’s Troy Stetcher. Stetcher with the goal line stance keeps this one out as Tampa Bay. Was that Paul? Oh, it was Braden Point was right there too trying to shovel it in. Couldn’t get it. Stcher doing an excellent job keeping that one in. This coming around at the side.

Both teams going back and forth. Al, how’s it going? So, the action is there. So, we can see what’s going on. Needing to watch. That’s right. So, what you can do, what you’re going to see obviously on the screen, depending on if you’re watching on the horizontal and vertical. Um, on the screen, you’ll see something that looks like a hockey rink with a bunch of X’s on it. That’s showing you where the shots are coming from. Down here is going to show you where the pucks are moving to. And that it’s going to show you right now it says keeper saved and that’s going to show you all the motion and on the the full stream on the far side you’ll see which players are on the ice and what their stat lines are in the game.

This time it’s going to be the left of the Tampa Bay Goender near side of the ice. Tavvaris going to take the draw. Going to be a bit of a scramble. Homeberg going to play this one back in Tampa going to clear this one out. Ecman Larson around the middle of the neutral zone. Played it up. Tampa knocked it down, sending it into the leaf zone. Riley behind the net picks it up, but it’s called an icing. So, it’s coming right back to the lightning side. Carlo was gone to the new year. Taz, I heard hadn’t heard that yet.

Quick shot and a nice save as the Toronto Net Minder going to hang on to it as again Tampa Bay. Yanni Gourd crashing into the net. That’s twice. Yanni Gourd is getting a little too close for comfort as the linesman gives him a little pat on the back and saying get out of here Gordy. Hey boy, what’s going on? Welcome in. Who do you think is going to win? Well, this one is up in the air. It’s going to be a tough one, but I’m going with the Leafs. I am going with the Leafs. That’s right, Kevin. Still learning to swallow. They came back from commercial break too fast. There’s only so much so quick you can swallow. Oh, that’s funny. Uh, let’s see. He’s never read it. Yeah, I don’t think I’ve read it either to be honest with you. Without Buffalo, we wouldn’t have Buffalo wings. There you go. Love that one. Oh man, I want wings. This going to be played around. Tampa Bay going to bring it right back in. Hegel stepping up. His shot is going to get blocked. Still in the corner. Celli throwing it around. Back to the line. Another shot. He’ll to be tracking that the whole way. Scoops it up in the glove. That should be the 10th shot for Tampa Bay. Only four for the Maple Leafs so far. Anytime I complain about living in Toronto, I’m always remind myself at least it ain’t Buffalo. I’ve I’ve only been to Buffalo once. And we went to a hockey game at the old Buffalo Auditorium. Now, we’re talking when like Pat Leaf Fontaine and Alex McIlly played on Buffalo. We sat right behind the bench. It was such a cool experience. Division rival games like this need to be nerve-wracking. I agree with you. This is going to be flipped up. Tampa climbing the ladder, holding it down. Hegel putting it across. Shot is going to get blocked. Toronto McCabe back on the far side of the ice. Going to flip this air mail. Bobby McMahon trying to haul it in. He can. He’s offside. Tampa Bay plays it to the neutral zone. Here come the Lightning. Nice little stutter step. Cut off playing it across. Faceoff dot. Center it in front trying to shovel this one in. Hegel gets stopped there. Onyx, what’s going on? I think Buffalo wings come from flying Buffaloos. Welcome in Onyx. Hope you’re doing well. Leafs putting this one all the way down the ice. No icing called. Tampa though again going to turn and move this quickly. Toronto, they’re able to move the puck down the ice, but they put it in the corners. They’re not getting shots on net. Here they go again. Benois playing this one up the middle trying to cut through his Yarn Croc going to play it around behind the net. Steven Lorent comes near side. He’s going to get bumped into the boards. Tampa digging for it. Lton can’t pull it out. Tampa going to try the far side. Chipping it to the line. Bobby Mack keeps it in. Lorent’s going to put this back down in the corner. Tampa going to try again. Nick Paul. He’s going to curl around. Playing it back behind the net. This is going to be moved by Croser.

Tampa working it near side. Cycling it back down around behind the net. Scotty Lton tying up his man. Good defensive play here by Lton. But Tampa continues to work the puck around the leaf zone back to the line in the middle now over far side. Here’s a long shot and it trickles right up on Hildabby as he’s going to hold on to that one. So a little bit of a wasted shot here by Tampa Bay as they had great puck possession time. Real nice work. Uh 23. I heard it’s not bad. They projected about a week or so for him. So we’re right about that time. Hey Chanel Prada, what’s going on? I am doing fantastic. Thank you so much for asking. Thank you for the subscribe. Welcome to the channel, Tom. Welcome to the community. Thank you for doing that. Again, don’t forget to hit that thumbs up, hit that like button, and be like Tom. Hit that subscribe or follow depending on which platform you’re watching on. Hey Jack, what’s going on? Welcome in. No benefits. What’s up? Yo yo, we got more conversations going on here at the side of the ice. Scott Lton having a conversation in here. Finley is having a conversation. Ecman Larson is in there. So something was said that drew a crowd. The referees have to split it up and Tampa Bay is going to come away with a penalty. So Ecman Larson given lip service and Tampa Bay comes over and starts mixing it up. So right off the bench, Finley comes right off the bench, right up to Ecman Larson. Didn’t like the recipe Ecman Larson was sharing with him. He comes over and gets the hands up high. So Tampa’s going to go to the box. So unsportsmanlike conduct is the call. Is it just going to be Tampa Bay? I believe it is. Toronto is going to get a power play opportunity. Yeah, Joshua, the rink issues for the Olympics are so crazy. The story is so weird. Hey, Gary, thank you for hitting that subscribe. Welcome into the community. So, with 10 and a half to go here in period number one, the Leafs going to end up on a power play. Two minutes up on the board. They’ve actually taken a shot away. So, they only have four shots. Let’s see what Toronto can do here. They’re going to win it back to the line. Willie, quick shot. That one’s going to get blocked. Willy’s got to back up. Knander, he’s going to curl. Play this one over to Morgan Riley. Riley turning. Good crossovers and he stops. Like, this is what drives me nuts. You get ahead of speed, good momentum, and you pretty much turn around and stop all your forward momentum. NY sending this around. Tavvarus bobbles it. It’s there in the slot and they can’t control it. And Tampa Bay gonna clear this one out. Hey Antoine, welcome in. Welcome to the party. Skyler, how’s it going? What happened to the World Series game seven? That’s awesome. Here comes Knander bringing it into Tavvaris over the line back to Willie around for N. Matthews in there going to play it around. Bad passing. Riley can’t hold the zone. Toronto has not been able to complete a single pass here with the man advantage. Matthews comes in, but he’s offside as Nelander gets pushed over the line.

They’re going to play this one back. Ava, welcome in. Here comes Doy. Maximum effort over the line. Going to chip it in for Bobby Mack. Bobb’s going in here. Puck is going to bounce. Doy has it. Side of the net. Three leafs below the goal line. Going to play this one back to Doi. A little quick passing. Listen, terrible work. Come on. Cowan keeps it in. Gets it to Ecman Larson. Here’s a long shot looking for a deflection in front. It’s knocked down and the Tampa Tendy is going to pounce on that one. 28 seconds left to go on the Leafs power play. Hey there, Mark. What’s going on? Welcome in. Oh, Mark, did you do you have uh do you make like a home rink or are you uh is that what you do? Are you you add a rink flooding it? I love it. So, good job by Nick Wah getting in front of the net there. But the Leafs, they got to be a little better with the passing. Sunny, what’s up? Welcome in. Power play is yep pretty much garbage. Tampa going to win this one. They’re going to flip this one all the way down the ice. Hildby going to settle it down. Leaves it for Ecman Larson. Oel. He’s going to come up. Looking looking. Nobody’s around for him. Pass to Doy. Doy chips it to Cowan. Not a great pass. Over to Ecman Larson. Ecman Larson. Back to Doy. Doi looking to pass it over. He does. Saucering it back to the point. They’re just cycling it. Somebody put it towards the net. Doian net backhand across. Oh my gosh, what a save. How did that not go in? Easting Cowan with a glorious opportunity. The puck found his way. Doi went down low to W to Cowan. It kind of fluttered. Oh, it hits Lillberg. It hits Lillberg and drops down. A glorious chance for Cowan on the power play. in a little fluky situation just does not allow that puck to go in. And they’re going to go to commercial break. Wow, what a moment. Uh Ala, I’m doing great. Thank you. Now, now that I’m healthy, uh it was it was a a scary moment there for a little bit. Being sick is never fun, but feeling much much better. So, thank you so much for asking and welcome. And there it is, Dan. The Austin Matthew stink face. That pretty much sums up that play. That pretty much sums it up. It was crazy. Wow.

Has Gensel all over him so he can’t shoot it. He’s forced to de. And it’s a good thing. So the hockey gods give the Maple Leafs a couple of bounces and they’re able to put that one in. Holy smokes. If Ster scored before Riley, Riley was gonna have a breakdown. Yeah, I you listen, I like Stetcher a lot. Ster coming in has looked phenomenal. Hey Justin, he has Stetcher has been great. Such a good pickup and boy, he’s he’s been a huge impact for these Maple Leafs. Hey Eastston, how’s it going? Watching your stream three 30,000 feet in the air. Hello everybody on the flight. Welcome in Eastston. Thanks for tuning in from way up there. Safe travels, my friend. Way to go, Mo. Now, let’s see if we can get Larry and Curly involved. Let’s go, Leafs.

He’s going to slide this one in right on the Tampa Bay Net Minder and he’s going to cover it up, but the puck actually came loose. Tvarus was right there. But the ref blows this one down. Wow. Big big big play. Toronto with a one- nothing lead. Love it. Too bad they couldn’t have kept Lias. He was another good pickup, but unfortunately he’s the odd man out. Yeah, I know, Trav.

Radish going to pick it up. 10 seconds left to go. This period is just about done. 15 shots for the Lightning. 10 shots for the Maple Leafs. Dumped all the way down the ice. Tampa one last chance.

Let’s break down the stats. 15 shots for Tampa Bay. 10 for the Maple Leafs. Faceoffs. This is funny. I’m curious to see what it’s going to update to. But right now, it says each team with 11 faceoff wins. So 5050 percentages. Toronto goes 0 for one on the power play. And it was a bad power play. Uh, nine hits for the Maple Leafs, only five registered for Tampa Bay. Toronto with six block shots, two for Tampa, four giveaways for Toronto. And I love that for the Leafs. Four giveaways in the first period. That is a great number. Seven giveaways for Tampa Bay. The only penalty was Jack Finley. Two minutes for unsportsman. Like, hey Charlie, what’s going on? Thank you very much. I like this hat. It’s quite nice. It’s quite lovely. Very thank you to the uh the person who picked it up for us. Sub, what’s going on? Welcome in. Zoron, what’s going on? Holy smokes. Yeah, we’re back on our feet now. Happy and healthy and back on our feet. It is good to be back here talking hockey and hanging out with everybody. All right, let’s go. Why is Why do our Zambonis freeze every game? Every game. Let’s give it We’re going to give it a a boost. They just don’t want to go. The Zambonis just don’t want to go, but Oh, they’ll go when they’re good and ready to go. All right, let’s talk about it. Uh, Miss Limbo, yes, found you, Sam. My cable doesn’t leave games on Mondays. I’m glad you found us. Welcome in. We are here and uh yeah, glad you could make it. Uh, let’s talk Olympic hockey right now. Olympic hockey. And the story, if you haven’t been paying attention or you haven’t had it pop up in your views, is the stadium they’re building for hockey is not finished. And depending on what reports you read, it’s nowhere close to being finished. Now, this is no surprise. Any Olympic season coming, the Olympic venues typically don’t get finished up till like just before the Olympics, right? We’ve seen this with swimming facilities. We’ve seen it with skating facilities. We’ve seen it with the the home stadium for track and field. We’ve seen this a lot, right? Where Olympic venues just don’t get ready in time, but they end up getting done. Hey, Stella, what’s going on? Good evening. Welcome in. And so, in this story, it’s the ice facility. The rink is not going to be done. But what makes it worse is they might be able to finish it. like all Olympic buildings, we expect it to be done, but they’re building it not to international hockey ice standards. So, as you know, for those that watch international hockey, international ice is usually a much wider, it’s just a bigger ice surface. And it actually changes the game because you can come out and be a hard-hitting, physical team, but when you come to that bigger ice, you have to have the endurance. You have to be able to skate. You have to be able to move the puck. So, okay, it’s fine. So, it’s not going to be international size. Maybe it’ll be NHL size because at least then we get the same quality of hockey that we’ve been seeing over here. Well, no, it’s not even going to be NHL size. It’s going to be about 3 to four feet smaller than an NHL size rink. Now, when you have players that are like six to 65 to 67, these huge bodies, and you’re making an even smaller rink, it’s going to be a problem. They’re working on Italian time to get it built, right, Dave? Um, I’m sure the building’s going to get done, right? It will get finished. My concern, though, is going to be this ice size. I don’t think we’re going to get the Olympic quality of hockey we were hoping for. Todd, thank you for the follow. because it’s going to be a much smaller ice surface. So, the big rumors are going around is that the NHL is not happy. They are none too pleased and especially if now we’re not even going to get NHL size ice. We’re going to get kind of shorter and a little bit wider. Um, they’re not happy. Now, all the rules say they’re they may not send the NHL players to go. I don’t think that’s going to happen. The NHL players are going regardless in my opinion. I would be absolutely shocked at the 11th hour if they turned around and said, “Nope, we’re not submitting an NHL caliber roster.” I would be shocked. But the vast amount of NHL players for all the countries that are going, you would think that the uh the ice would at least at least be NHL size. So that’s the story that’s going on. They don’t do hockey. I know. Uh it’s but it’s crazy. It’s crazy. That’s funny. Uh yes. So uh let’s see here. Uh international hockey doesn’t rule goons. It doesn’t Bart. It doesn’t. You got to move. And so it’s funny because they talk about Tom Wilson, you know, potentially being on on the Canadian team. And I know Tom Wilson is having a good year, but it’s hard for me to picture someone like Tom Wilson being on an Olympic team. Like for me, it just doesn’t it just doesn’t work. Hey, spaceman. What’s going on? Welcome in. Yeah, been a little while. Been a little while, but I hope you’re doing well. It’s like using big players on an arcadesiz rink in Wayne Gretzky’s 3D hockey. Road Warrior. That’s funny. Gretzky’s 3D hockey. Uh, how’s Matthew looking in the first period? Um, not great. Katie’s looking okay. He’s looking okay. He wasn’t invisible, but he didn’t look spectacular. Uh, so Olympics start in February, I believe. Um, I’m sure Dallas will pop up with the exact date, but uh, you know, February, I believe, is when the Olympics will be taking place. Um, a quick peek at the Edittown scoreboard. The next game or next set of games start at 9:00. Sabers and Flames, Kings and Mammoth. They’re at nine. So, right now, the only game in action is this one. Tampa Bay and the Toronto Maple Leafs. Gotta say the budget for a predictably terrible opening ceremony. I hope it’s a good opening ceremony. How has Martyr looked for the Leafs? How has Mner looked for the Leafs? I love it. I love it. Listen, I I know Mar Listen, Marner is going to have a great regular season as we would expect him to, but uh he uh we’ll see how he plays in the playoffs. That that’s what it all all is going to come down to. There it is. Lala has it. February 6 to 22nd is the Olympic stretch. So, February 6 to 22nd. And I love the Olympics. I I love the Olympics so much. Um, it’s just, you know, it’s hard when it’s overseas because the time difference. And I say that, I know we got a lot of folks from across the pond that watch our streams and stay up late with us. So, I appreciate all of you for staying up late with us. But, yeah, those those late night games, they they get to be a little tough. Uh, Stella, I actually don’t know. This was a gift that was uh that was purchased and given to me as a as a gift and I’m very thankful from it. But I believe it’s from right down the Scotia Bank Arena. Uh I believe. But yeah, it’s pretty cool. It’s pretty cool and it’s comfortable as well. Really comfortable. Uh let’s see here. What about when that guy Stone was chosen? Oh, Stone. Since I can’t see my boyfriend Nelander, how’s he doing? He’s floating around. Nelander is floating around like usual, but he’s looking okay. He’s making some nice passes. You guys are so funny. I love it. So, the Olympics are on during Valentine’s Day. Hopefully, we’ll get some Olympic ice. I hope so. We will, Jeff. They’ll be late, though, right? There’ll be late night games. We’ll get some early games, but early will probably be like 10 o’clock, right? And you’ll get I think prime time there is what like two in the morning our time. I forget the time difference but if it’s anything like last time that’s kind of how it was. They were like really late games. Hey people first. How’s it going? Welcome. And best oh the Canada Russia 72 series. You’re right probably was one of the greatest series ever and we will probably never see a series like that ever again. Um it was absolutely incredible. Scotia Bank Arena stands had way too much red their game. I’m telling you those habies they tra they do space man they travel real real well for the Winter Olympics over summer. The US feed is terrible. It’s NBC which is way too political. All sports feed. Yeah Dave, you know I I do I like them both. I mean there’s a lot in the summer games that I love. Um in the winter I mean obviously hockey is great. Speed skating is great. I love the bob sled and luge. I’m not a big skiing guy. I like the aerials and stuff, but I don’t watch a lot of the skiing. Um, and ski jumping of course is very cool. But yeah, it’s just fun. There’s some great great events. Uh, if you It’s not It doesn’t How do How do I say this? It doesn’t come across well on TV, but if you watch the Batlon, man, talk about needing to be a good athlete. Holy smokes. That is that is an event where you really got to dig down deep. You know that cross country skiing and the bialon, you really got to work. Oh yeah, Justin, I forgot about snowboard cross. That’s pretty cool, too. That is pretty wild. All right, let’s take a quick peek here at some of the leaders in the National Hockey League going around because a little bit of the changing of the guard as we had, you know, Alex Ovetkin and what he did last year was crazy. this year. While Nathan McKinnon has exploded for points and is leading the league with 49 points, Malcin Celbrini and Connor Baddard. What a year these two are having. Celebrini with 43 points. Connor Baddard with 40 points. Conor McDavid up there with 42. So when you take a look at these top dogs, right? And how does this stand for team Canada when you look at Nathan McKinnon number one, Celabbrini number two, McDavid number three, Baddard number four, your top four point getters. It’s pretty impressive. Nathan McKinnon 24 goals so far this year. Leads the league in goals. Morgan Geeky with 22. Good for him. Connor Baddard with 18 goals. Jason Robertson and Sydney Crosby with 18. Tom Wilson is tied with Leon Dryidle and Kil Krill Capri off with 17 goals. Bo Horvat and Brennan Hegel also with 17 goals which is crazy. Malcolm Cabbrini tied with Conor McDavid with 28 apples, 28 assists which is absolutely wild right now. Hey there Sean, welcome in. 1968 Stanford Smith fired Punch Imlac. Remember my dad said the Leafs will never be the same again. Looks like your dad was a prophet. Sean, that’s hysterical. Summer TV is the best. Yeah, I don’t dis I don’t disagree. Curling Santa. Yeah, you know what? You’re right, Dave. Curling is curling is a lot of fun and the Canadians have had some great curlers over the years. Some really good curling. And um I know a lot of people joke about curling and we we laugh about curling. Um you know, I’ve been lucky enough to to curl before. Um, it is so hard. It is so so hard. And when you see these these folks making some of these shots, you know, where they’re ricocheting off two stones and in landing, it is such an unbelievable game, such a difficult game to master. Um, I mean, I I quite enjoy. I don’t watch all of it, but I certainly will watch Canada’s matches. It’s it’s an intense game to watch. That is that is for sure. Uh, cross country athletes really strong. Yeah, Justin, they really, really are. Uh, let’s see here. How many goals does Austin Matthews have? Austin Matthews, let me double check because I had it off the top of my head and now I forget. So, Matthews right now, he’s sitting at 11. So, Matthew sitting at just 11 goals in 23 games played. He’s got 19 total points. So, would like to see a little bit more little bit more from him. Hey Christa, how’s it going? Welcome in. Good to see you. Wh Let me back my chat up here. Just a blip. Connor by the start time of the Olympics. Uh, sorry, Jeffrey. I Let’s see. Let me scroll back. We’ll start at 1:00 a.m. in Italy for our prime. No, no, no. Not in Italy. I mean, in like here in can in Canada, Eastern time zone. So, in Italy, it’ll start things will start in normal kind of normal hours in Italy, but when we’re watching at Eastern time, stuff is going to go till really really late or early in the morning. Uh, is is what I what I meant to say. Yeah, they don’t they’re not going to start it late Italy. So, it shows up a normal time here. It’s It’ll be normal Italy time. Uh let’s see here. I am feeling so much better, Christa. Thank you so much for for asking. Uh let’s see here. Welcome in. I love watching it. No place around me has it available to play. Oh, you have to find it. You have to find it. Curling is is so much fun. Curling is fun. I’ve never had play because he hates sweeping. Hillary, how’s it going? Welcome in. I meet my wife curling. Oh, nice, Rick. Very cool. Uh, last winter Olympics I watched was Vancouver 2010. Oh, you’re going to watch this one. It’s going to be fun. Sarah, what’s up? This is Sammy the Savior of Regional Restrictions. Still at it. You got it. You got it, Sarah. Good to see you. Uh, TB, what’s going on? Welcome in. Kathleen, how’s it going? Curling is all physics. It is. Really is. Thank you very much. Appreciate it. Uh, curling would be the most popular in the states if it only made it full contact full contact curling. Could you imagine? Have you been to the Bell Center Montre? No, I’ve never been to the Bell Center in Montreal. Best play. I know what you meant. I know what you meant. But yeah, I was lucky enough um I knew some folks that had access to a curling ring. So, we used to go there and curl all the time. And it is it is so First of all, the rocks are heavier than you think. And there is a very very straightforward technique of of pushing off and sliding. And when you slide with the rock, you can’t just turn the handle. You It’s just like ever so slight ever so slight of a turn. And then if you’re skipping and you got to know like when to call to sweep, when not to sweep, you know, it it is so technical, but it’s impressive. You tried and you sucked. It’s hard. It really is hard. Hey Paul, welcome in. Thank you so much. Thanks for tuning in. Curling is watching a lot pulling brooms and brushes. That’s funny. But you know the other thing is they they wear a spe a special slip on one shoe, right? So one shoe gets a little bit of traction. and they push on the other shoe slides. So when you go to a a curling rink and you you can always spot the the new folks, right? Because the first thing they tell you is when you put on and usually, you know, if you’re going for the first time, you’re not you don’t have the special shoe to wear, you stick your foot in the thing and they put like the special tape on your shoe that you can slide. And they always tell you when you’re stepping on the ice, don’t step first with the foot with the tape. And there’s always somebody you see, they step with the with the foot with the tape and they foot goes up and they go flying. So, you can always spot the new curlers, but uh it’s a lot of fun. And curler is a if you’re a drinker, curling is a very big drinking culture. A very big drinking culture. So, it’s uh curling is about bonding and and having a good time and pounding them back. And it can get pretty competitive. Go Leafs. That’s right, Kyle. Go Leafs. Let’s go Leaves. Hey Jeff, welcome in. Welcome to the show. Again, thanks everybody for joining us.

Bringing you all the magic, the treats, the snacks, the merch, and the good times from the Florida Parks. All right, we’re getting set here for period number two coming up. Hopefully, the Leafs can continue to play the way they did in the first. It took them a little bit to get going, but once they did get going, man, they were right in it, toeto- toe with these Tampa Bay Lightning. So, a good start for the Leafs. Let’s keep it rocking, folks. Let’s keep it going. Uh, hey Beth, welcome in your cousin. Really, Beth? Oh, you’ll have to let me I’ll have to watch.

The puck just comes right off the pad right to Cali Yarnrock and he goes glove side and the Tendy was seeing that all the way. Good try here, Kelly.

Folks, as we come towards the holiday season, a lot of you have been with us a long time. You know, we’ve been working with the MS Society of Canada for a fundraising campaign.

Another nice save by the Tampa Bay Net Minder. Hey Jaylen, how’s it going? Welcome in. Yeah, the MS Society of Canada as they go to commercial break is who we’ve been paired up with over the last month or so and we’ve been raising money for them.

Welcome in. This period is just flying by. It is. Uh Sailin, how’s it going? Welcome in. Gotta love Toronto. Gotta love Toronto. Well, you don’t have to love Toronto, but I do. I believe. And Toronto’s playing hard. They’re playing well. They’re looking good. That’s all we need. That’s all we need from them is work it, work it, work it.

It’s it’s a terrible disease. Hey, Vladimir, how’s it going? Have a good night. Uh I disagree with you. I think it’s a great game right now. It is a phenomenal game right now. Both teams going toe-to-toe, putting on a show. The Leafs right now are the only ones that have been able to crack the scoreboard. See, I I happen to like some of these games where it’s a strong defensive effort or the goalies come in and make big saves. It’s not all about winning games 65, 54. Sometimes you got to play and if hey that’s okay Vladimir that’s okay if it ends up being one- nothing that’s okay means the guys are doing their jobs Toronto whole pulling down JJ Moser no call there Tampa wanted a penalty and they should have got a got a call but no call made so another whistle 18 shots a piece Right now, Maple Leafs getting a lot of shots. Seven shots for the Leafs in this period. Only three for Tampa Bay so far. Merry Christmas and happy holiday to yours. Be well, kind. Thank you so much, PB. Merry Christmas and happy holidays to you as well. Here come the lightning. Lightning on the move. Gonna bring this one up. Plenty invented. Maker was the one who started using Hine’s Ken commentary.

East Cowan is there and he plays this one up, but too far for Knander. Back over to Moser. I feel like Moser’s been on a lot here. Up over the line and Ben Wis. He’s going to come back to pick this one up. Under 12 to go. Here comes Dakota Mermis. Hoping the NHL would have all the Russian players on the NHL teams play one exhibition game against Colorado. Here’s Oh, that would have been very cool. Apple. Oh, the slime. Skittles the slime in the stream. The slime is coming out again. NY’s in the corner. Matthews to do to the point for Stcher.

Hegel putting this one across. Oh, lot of bits. Piglet, thank you so much. Back over to Matthews in the corner. Back to the line. Nice all alone. He passes it over. They center it to Matthews and he can’t pull the trigger. This back over nice keeping it in. Nice over to Matthews again. This one is tipped up and it’s batted out of the air. Here they come on the far side carrying it up. Tampa Bay with speed bringing it in. Dropping it. Here’s a shot kicked out. Great save at the other end. Saves all around. Holy smokes. Wow. Piglet, thank you so much for all the bits. Thank you so much for that, Piglet. Here they come again. Little kick out. Working it back through. Bobby McMahon cutting, trying to shovel this one in. And a nice save here again. Holy smokes. Unbelievable. Great job. Great saves. Really putting this one down. I was worried about Hillbe, but he seems to be uh proving himself. He’s playing great. Hillbe is looking awesome. He’s really making some big saves and and I I was with you. I was kind of nervous about him as well, but he’s he’s looking sharp. He’s looking super sharp. Leafs winning another draw. Throwing this one down in the corner. Can’t pick it up on the the pinch in. Hedman is going to play it up to Paul. Paul bobbles it. Leafs can’t take it away. Hedman going to try the other side of the ice. Going to chip this one up off the boards and the Lightning able to get it to the red line. They fan on clearing it in deep. Lton has it. Lton missed his pass. Now he turns back last minute. It is It’s a great time every time Tampa Bay loses. That’s funny. This one kicking it in over the line. Toronto Lorren bobbled it. Here comes Tampa Bay. Toronto hustling to get back. Long shot. That one’s going to go way wide. This one in the corner. Tampa Bay is changing. Too many men. Ref. Too many men. And the whistle is going to go. Is it going to be? It should be. They’re going to a commercial break. We’ll have to wait and see when they come back. To me, it looked like too many men on the ice. Will that be the call? Will the Maple Leafs be going to their second power play of the game? 34 has to score. He’s got to get it going, Mark. He does have to get it going. Uh my I’m Tim Horton’s NHL picks right off Austin Nazy and Robertson. So, no Piglet, you’ll be upset to hear no Robertson tonight. Nick Robertson a healthy scratch tonight. So, he’s sitting, but let’s see. Let’s see if Ny or Matthews can get it going. Can I say something to y’all? Uh, this is supposed to be a friendly chat. Go do it yourself. The whole go do it yourself. Crap has got to stop. And Nelander has 12 goals. What? I I don’t know. I don’t think I understand. Ever since Hildabbe has been a goal, Leafs have been great. Hildabbe is coming. He’s been playing very, very strong. Quick drink. Hydrate. Got to hydrate. Thank you, Kevin. Always always keeping me up. Gotta get my drinks. Too many men. Will Doyle never too many men. Oh, you know the Leafs the Leafs goending future is bright. Biobats, how’s it going? Welcome in. I need goals. I need goals. Hearing her commenting on Nia Matthews got me cheering like, “Come on, Tim’s points. Come on, Tim’s points.” You know, Piglet, I forget like every day to do my Tim’s picks. But there’s a new NHL app that I’ve been playing with with one of my boys. It’s like a little fantasy where you get like a little pack of hockey cards and you put in your guys and you can train them up and you you put your lineup in each night. It’s a fun little thing. I don’t even remember what it’s called, but it’s a new NH I’ll tell you what it’s called if you want a fun little app to play along with. It’s just called NHL Fantasy Stars. NHL Fantasy Stars. So, I’ve been playing that. It’s a lot of fun. If you’re playing NHL Fantasy Stars, you can try and find me on there. Samuel B12. But yeah, it’s fun. I quite enjoy it. NHL Fantasy Stars. All right, here we go. Nine. Just over nine minutes to go. Hayden, what’s up? Mostly considered trade. Oo using Stellarza some trade bait. Here’s a little blip shot going just through. Misses the net. Back around in the corner. Matthews going to chip this one out. Trying to race up on it, but back is Radish. He’s going to play it around. Moser works this one up. Little flip pass. Point can’t reach it. And Toronto N going to back this one up. Let’s go. Yeah, Piglet. It’s a pretty cool app. It’s It’s really cool and it’s so easy to pick up and and do and you can set your lineup like three days in a row in advance. I’ve been playing the pre-play NHL. It’s now gambling picking players and it’s fun. It’s harmless. Harmless is the best way. Here comes Toronto in over the line. Riley again pulls a shot. That one goes just wide. Stick side down in the corner. Toronto setting it around the boards back up top for Ecman Larson. Ekki going to shovel this one in. It’s going to hop in there. A little slow roller. Tampa Bay is all over the Leaf player there in the corner. Looked like Tavvaris. This is going to come all the way back. Cycling it around. Neander going to chip it in. Doesn’t get it deep. But here comes some reinforcements as Ecman Larson puts this one in deep. Is everyone excited for Christmas? I am so excited. Can’t wait for the holiday season. Bringing this across Tampa Bay trying to pull it from behind them. Gergensson’s coming in. Takes a bump by Cowan. Ben W going to pick this one up. Seven and a half to go here in a very quick moving second period. Knander pulls up to Cowan. Cowing going to throw this one in corner far side of the ice trying to bust in here.

This is going to be ripped around the glass. Cooer off to Hegel. Hegel putting it in the middle. Broken up by Joshua. Joshua going to send this one down. Tampa at the red line now. B right back into the leaf zone. Cross ice pass to Hegel. Hegel stepping up. A little slap pass. Here’s a shot. That one misses the net. And Toronto. Bobby Mack going to get this one out and down the ice. It’s curling towards the net. And that goes through the crease, but does not touch the goalender. So, it is going to be an icing call. That one really curly curled. Really curled. I thought for sure that was going to touch the tendy and wasn’t going to end up uh wasn’t going to end up an icing, but I was wrong on that one. Glassman, I’m happy you are here as well. Again, thanks for joining us. Welcome in everybody wherever you’re watching from, whatever platform you’re watching on. Thanks so much for joining us here tonight as the Maple Leafs looking to get it done. We are looking to bring you all the action. So, keep it going.

Puck rolled up on him. He didn’t see it. Over to Wah. Wah trying to feed this one back to McMahon. McMahon though had come over to help out Wah. It comes over to Moser. Plays this one back over and Radish sends this one down the ice. Riley kind of kicked it to the corner. Look out. Riley gives it away to Gensel and then seals it back. Nick Paul comes up on it. Takes it. Eman Larson forces him to make a play. Riley shovels it along the boards. Bobby Mack tips this one out. Here we go. NY’s coming up. Nye stops, turns his back, dumps it off. Here’s a shot. That one goes wide. Matthews picking it up. Matthews, he can’t control it. This comes all the way back out to Mermis. Mermis putting this one across. Let’s go. My nephew’s girlfriend got hit in the head with Oh my goodness. Christa, I hope she’s okay. Here’s a little cycle back. Matty N going to pick this one up. Nice on the move. Little dipsydoo and a tow drag. Oh, what a move by N. Keeps it in. Oh, and he tried to shovel it over and he fumbled the pass. Nice with a great set of hands at the line but could not complete it with the pass. Oh my goodness. That was unbelievable. Commodore 64. Oh man, I love the old Commodore 64s. Th those were the tools back in the day. Bringing this one around. Here comes Tampa out over the line. Tampa Bay working their way in driving, trying to turn the corner. Good job by the Maple Leaf defenders. Headedman with a shot. That one is knocked down. Trying to put it back in front as Yanni Gourd in Stetcher able to keep this one along the boards. Gets it to the line. It comes out, hops over Willie stick. Willie has to cycle back. Here’s Nelander head up. He’s looking. Willie carrying this one up. Feeds it over. Cycling around as East Cowan now. Cowan still with this. He’s going to flip it to the corner for Willie. Willie N. Oh, Willie is just turning inside out. Yanni Gourd. Willie still with it. Puts it over to Cowan. Cowan has to bring this one out as him and Willie were going to run into each other. Knander all the way back. Over to Cowan. Cowan back up to Willie. Willie long pass tipped up. Cowan racing in now. He pulls off and heads to the bench. By the way, Utah in LA. That game just underway. Two minutes in. No score at this point. Will Stetcher score this game? That would be Oh, Chris, that would be awesome. Chris Stcher has been great. He’s been really, really solid. This is dropped back. Tampa Bay flipping it back in their own zone. 2018 are the total shots on net right now. Here comes Braden Point. Point hasn’t knocked off his stick. Scott Lton tries to center it. Cut off blocked it. Came right back to Len. Lton going to send this one down in the ice. Willie hasn’t scored in his last four games. He’s got eight in his previous 11. So like to see Willie get going. Long pass is going to get knocked down. Toronto going to turn. Bring it in. They were changing. So I had to watch the offside. Guys, how’s it going? Speaking of Utah, what a loss they have right now with Kulie. Yeah. That looked it just ugly. Back to the line. Here’s a shot. And again, Jansen with a nice save and he pounces on that one. Two minutes. Well, 2011 to go. Maple Leafs won. in Tampa Bay. No score as we’re working our way towards the end of period number two. Saw, how’s it going? Go Leafs go. Nobody needs to score more than Austin. Austin definitely definitely needs to score. He needs to get himself going for sure. 2:10 a.m. here. Time to hit the sack. Archard, thanks for hanging out with us. Have a great night. Battle of the blue and white. Yes, indeed. Battle of the blue and white. for sure that these guys have come to play. Leafs are looking good. It’s nice to see. Hey, Lisa. Go Habs. Go. You know, it’s funny. It’s It’s funny talking about the Habs, Lisa. You know, I uh I’m sure like a lot of Toronto fans, my whole social uh media filter, Habs fans rubbing it in to Maple Leaf fans after they won in a shootout, after they won in a shootout. And I I laugh because listen, sports is a passionate thing. We all get excited, win or lose, we all get excited over various things. But I laughed so much when I saw some of the comments I read on social media about how the Montreal Canadians absolutely wiped the floor with the Maple Leafs. They absolutely crushed the Maple Leafs souls and I some of the comments were hysterical and you’re like you won in a shootout. I loved it. I thought it was awesome. I thought it was so awesome and that’s why I love hockey fans so much. Whether you’re a Leafs fan, a Habs fan, or an Arizona Coyotes fan, uh we are all the same. We love our teams. We love our sports, and some of the comments are just so funny. Uh Nick, what’s going on? From my perspective, I think Austin has been playing catchup after coming back from his injury. Yeah, I don’t disagree. I don’t disagree. There’s definitely a little bit of catchup trying to get back in there for sure. Yeah, the injury did look nasty. Uh, it was a very close game. I remember Oh man, Jeff, I love my Atari. Love my Atari so much. Antonio, what’s going on? Welcome in. They dropped the puck and they blew it down right away. So, we’re going to get another face off. 34 degrees Celsius in Sydney. I wish I was in the arena. Paul, welcome in. Hope you’re doing all right. Little toasty. Little toasty. You’re streaming on my phone watching on TV. Get the volume down. playing Blades of Steel. Oh, I love Blades of Steel. This Toronto off the draw just inside the Tampa Bay zone. Now, do you prefer Blades of Steel or the old NHL ice hockey on the Nintendo? I liked both. I think I might like ice hockey a little more than Blades of Steel, but Blades of Steel was great. This is coming all the way back down to the Tampa Bay zone. Tampa Bay seems to be very disorganized right now. Very scrambly. This is going to be dumped in around the boards. Matthews chipping this to NY though. Nice can’t get it. Comes around behind the net. Tampa fighting for this. Fighting for every inch. There’s a trip. Did an arm go up? No. Yes. The back referee’s going to call it. So, we’re going to get a penalty here by the Maple Leafs. The referee, the near referee did not call anything. It looks like it’s the back referee that is making the call. So tripping is for sure. And yes, you Amazon Prime commentators, there’s nothing not to be sure of. He takes the stick and does this and pushes the blade out from the bottom of the skate. So Ecman Larson guilty of a trip. He’s going to go to the box. And I tell you, there’s, you know, I don’t care where you watch, whether you watch me, whether you watch somebody else, you watch it on TV, you watch it on Prime, but I hate when some of these professional announcers act like, you know, they just don’t have a clue what’s going on. Drives me nuts. All right, let’s go. Let’s bring it around. Thank you, Chris. I appreciate that. Tampa gets their first power play of the game. NHL 96M for NA for the SNES. So good. All right, bring it back around. I didn’t get a chance to see your answers. Hey, Bill, welcome. If Matthews been playing so bad, how did his wingers have career years? Are you talk? What? What are you talking this year? Here comes Tampa Bay. Tampa going to chip this one in and Toronto going to get this one all the way out. 20 seconds left to go. 20 seconds left. Set up behind the net. Here comes Point. Point going to carry this one up on the move. Going to drop it back. Cut off back to Point. Point going to chip this one in and Toronto going to turn, put it off the glass down the ice. And with 4 seconds left to go, that’s going to do it. The second period has come to an end. Another good period for Toronto. They did the things they needed to do. They still have a one- nothing lead. Eight shots in that period for Toronto. Five shots in that period for Tampa Bay. Brings the totals 20 shots for the Lightning, 19 for the Maple Leafs. In the faceoff circle, Toronto is 19 to 35, which is good for 54.3% in the faceoff circle. Uh, taking a look, 16 hits for the Leafs, 11 for Tampa Bay. So, not an overly physical game. Eight block shots for Toronto, five for Tampa. A giveaways, 11 for Tampa, nine for Toronto, which means they had five in that period. Morgan Riley still your only goal scorer of the game. his goal from Eastston Cowan and John Tvaris. Let’s look at some of the individual efforts going on. Matthew N right now leads all Maple Leaf forwards in ice time 12 minutes 41 seconds. He has two hits and a giveaway. So not much doing for Matty Nice. Austin Matthews second with 12 minutes. 1212. He’s got four shots and two shot blocks today. So four shots by Austin Matthews. Two of those came on the same play. William Knander, he’s a plus one at eight. 12 minutes of ice time. Uh, no real stats. Again, no shots for William Knander. Max Stoi in 1150 of ice time. No shots, no blocks. Eastston Cowan’s got two shots today. He’s a plus one. 11:49 minutes of ice time. When we flip down to the defensive side, it’s Ecman Larson leading the way at 1516. Uh, 20 shifts. He has two shots, two hits, and a takeaway as well as two penalty minutes. He is a plus one. Jake McCabe 14 12 minutes, two blocks, and a hit for McCabe. Stcher at 14 12 minutes. He’s got one block. Morgan Riley down in the fourth spot with 1407 of ice time. Two shots for Morgan Riley. And of course, he does have the goal. It’s Brian. What’s going on? Welcome in. Good to see you. If you were to lay a blue whale lengthwise over a hockey rink, it would die of suffocation. Uh, probably. Probably. How? And how are you getting a whale over an ice rink? Uh, Veto, what’s going on? Please win this game. Please win this game. All right, I got to scroll back. I got to see the answers to the Blades of Steeler NHL question, but maybe it’s too far back now. Oh, darn it. Next time. Next time I’ll have to get it. So, those are kind of a little bit about what’s going on. Let’s take a look for the Tampa Bay Lightning. Cooerof leads the way there. 1440 of ice time. He’s got two shots. The next guy, Brennan Hegel, has 12 minutes. So, he’s got 2 minutes and 40 seconds more. Cut off does the next closest guy. And Brendan Hegel. Hegel with one shot. Yanni Gourd is 1157 minutes of ice time, only one shot. Celli at 1152. He’s got two shots. the defensive side. Moser 1408, he’s got a shot. Radish at 1359. Lillberg at 1339. Crows are at 1240 and Dastis at 1215. And Victor Hedman the least played defenseman at 1206. But I got to tell you, all the defense pretty even when it comes to ice time. So those are the current stats of what is going on in this hockey game. Never used to be an OEL fan, but he’s grown on me. You know, Beverly, it’s funny you you say that. Stephen says, “Blades of Steel number one, numero uno.” So, you know, Ecman Larson. Ecman Larson is a little bit of a little bit of a journeyman if if you will. Um, Ecman Larson, you know, spent a lot of years with Phoenix. Um, a lot of years with Phoenix. He uh 2010 2011 he started his career with the Phoenix Coyotes and he was there all the way until 2122. Right? That’s 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 seasons with the Phoenix and Arizona Coyotes. He spent two years in Vancouver before moving to the Florida Panthers and he won a Stanley Cup with the Florida Panthers. Um, and I thought Ecman Larson was such an important part of that Stanley Cup run. And when he came to Toronto the following year in 2425, I thought what a great pickup. Now, unfortunately, I think a lot of his talent was wasted in Arizona because they were just such a bad team. So, I’m happy he found his way here and he he is a a solid solid defenseman. I liked him in Arizona. I liked him even more in Florida. Now, he’s really really good. Uh, uh, Jordan, what’s up? Gavin, Jordan, Gavin, Jordan, welcome in. Nice to meet you. I’m doing very well. Thank you. Thanks for tuning in with us here. Uh, Pimer, what’s up? Welcome in. I’m hoping Toronto hangs on to it and that they uh they pull it out. It would be awesome. Chris, what’s up? Welcome in. Jersey probably felt bad and let the Bruins win. Chris, that’s awesome. Uh, David, welcome back in. Good to have you along for the ride. Love Nelander as Joffrey during Game of Thrones. Never knew he could act. That’s I didn’t realize he was in an episode of Game of Thrones. That’s funny. I haven’t been since Jay’s World Series loss. This seems like more of a heartbreak and a half Canadian keeper, doesn’t it? Doesn’t it always seem to be that way? It does. But yeah, Ecman Larson, a real real solid pickup. Um, and you know, we’ve talked a lot tonight about Troy Stcher. And Troy Stcher, what a good pickup he has been. Of course, he started in 1617 with the Vancouver Conucks before going to the Red Wings, the Kings, the Coyotes, the Flames, the Coyotes again, then three years at the with the Oilers before coming here to Toronto. And boy, um, I love how he’s contributing in nine games for Toronto. Yes, he’s got one goal, three assists for four points, but he’s a plus eight, which is what I like from him. A plus eight. He can play um 20 minutes a night if you need him to. He’s just one of these guys, an absolute workhorse, and I think he is a a brilliant signing, almost a steal here for Toronto. All right, get the fluids in. Gotta keep those fluids going. All right. Did I miss any other comments? No. There’s San Nelander looks like Oh, looks like the actor. Gotcha. Okay. Thank you. So, I’m like, really, he was in Game of Thrones. Like, how did I not hear about that? I mean, listen, I saw how he acted in those uh TTC Subway commercials for Rogers. So, you know, the kid has some acting skills. You never you never know. That’s funny. All right, let’s see here. We picked up Stetron waivers. How do we man? I know, Mark. Such a solid pickup. And you know the I kind of feel for the Oilers a little bit because I don’t know if that was their intention because when you look at Edmonton’s defensive structure. I mean I personally like Evan Bousard a lot. I know a lot of people do not like him. I like Matias Ekhome a lot. Darnell Nurse is a waste of space. Um, but you got Jake Walman and Brett Kulak and I think I would kind of prefer, you know, Stetcher the way he’s playing over those two. So, I think it was a little bit of a surprise to me that, you know, he was the guy who let go. Uh, so great pickup, great pickup for Toronto and a big big loss for for the Oilers. and the Oilers, they got to figure something out. They got to figure something out real quick. All right, let’s if we take a look if we pull this up and we look at the way kind of the standings are situated and I know we can’t make a whole lot because right now there’s so many teams clumped together and you know two points or four points is the difference of being in top spot verse bottom spot. But you know, the Edmonton Oilers, they’re a little bit better than a 500 team, right? 13-1, five overtime losses. They’ve been picking up some some wins, but you know, I think they would like to be in a little bit better shape. Hey, Jesse, how’s it going? Welcome. I’m doing great. Thank you. Uh I’m a Jets fan praying for Hellabuck to get better, you know, and and they’re an interesting tory story, too. I mean, obviously, um, not as good of a start to the season as they would have preferred. Also, a 500 team pretty much at 14 and 13. Um, you know, Winnipeg was so good last year and Hellbuck just completely disappeared in the playoffs. It was shocking, shocking. You Jets fans scratching their heads on that one for sure. Uh, for years the waiver wire was a nightmare. If Toronto waved anyone, they would immediately get picked up. It’s nice for Yeah, it is nice for a change of luck, you know, and I like there’s those stories and I forget the players name now off the top of my head, but there was a guy last year who bounced around to like three or four teams. Every time they would get him, you know, they’d they’d have to stay one day on the roster and then they could wave him again. And every time he got waved, another team picked him up. He bounced around like crazy. Yeah, waiverwire can be can be a bit of a nightmare if you’re one of those bubble players. Head of my Devils, lose to the Bruins, five straight losses. Listen, Boston, while Boston started the season in not in great shape, they’ve been really good. Boston’s in second place in the Atlantic right now. Well, they’re technically tied with Tampa Bay with 34 points. So, they are one of the better teams this year. So, when when you talk about, you know, teams, Boston is up there. But it’s funny that, you know, the Atlantic is one of the hardest, in my opinion, one of the hardest divisions, but this year it’s it’s it’s just not. It’s all the Metropolitan Division. The Met is so good. Washington, Carolina, the Islanders all so good. Pittsburgh and New York Rangers off to decent starts, all with 34 points or more. or the Metropolitan Division certainly racking up the winds right now in the Atlantic is struggling, but that will that will change around. Hey Benny, what’s going on? What do you think of Montreal this season? Montreal is much improved. You know, we talked about Montreal last year. Montreal, they’ve got a ton of talent, a lot of young talent. Love what I’m seeing in Demadov and Hudson. Two great performers that are just getting started. and you pair those with the likes of Caulfield and and whatnot and Suzuki, you got a great core there. You have a a great group. Um, and they’ve started to put it together. They’re they’re winning some games. Much improved hockey team. The question is, can they stay healthy and can they play this way for for their entire run? Um, the one question I had for Montreal was how their uh their goalending was going to hold, right? How their goalending was going to maintain. And I and I still think, you know, that is a valid question. Jacob Dobish, who by the way is is ridiculous. I was at his debut game against Florida um in Florida when he wiped them 4- nothing. He’s 10 and4 this season which is great but he’s got a 303 goals against average and an 890 save percentage. So he’s got a lot of wins but his numbers could be better. Sam Montabo, same thing. He’s five and six and his numbers are not good. So for me the question is Jacob Dolbish is the future but how you know how are they going to support these goalenders moving forward but Montreal a much improved team. Hey Terren, can I get a shout out up to my wife Sonia? Sonia, what’s up? Terrence wants a shout out. What’s up Sonia? Hope you’re doing well. Hope your week is off to a good start. Suzuki is a man. See I mean he’s Suzuki is darn good and so is Mat Justin. Thank you for calling that out. I was a big Mike Mat fan with the Florida Panthers and um you know he is he is a solid player. I like Mike Mat a lot. Uh let’s see here. Poor PR. Yeah, the pres are an interesting team. Here’s here’s somebody who last year they made a big splash. you know, Stam Coast goes over there and I I don’t know if everybody was like me, but I’m thinking, man, Stephen Stamco, the Nashville Predators, these guys have stacked up their lineup. They’re going to be the team to watch. They are going to be explosive, and they’ve just fizzled out. I don’t know what is wrong with the Nashville Predators, but that is just so bizarre on what’s going on in Nashville. But yeah, they’re they’re a they’re a weird one. if he played in Utah, we would barely know who Suzuki is. That’s, you know, you’re not necessarily wrong in in talking about Utah, man. Utah, Seattle, San Jose, um there’s a lot of a lot of good things going on in the National Hockey League. When it comes to some of these fringe teams that in the past uh have been weird to watch, of course, Logan Culie with the 14 goals, Clayton Keller, 17 assists, 26 points. I mean, Dylan Gunther has been wild to watch for Utah. Um, when you talk about San Jose, holy smokes, we talked about Cabbrini already today. Cabbrini is just lighting it up. Will Smith is going to have a bright future there. They’ve put a great team together. Um, Brad, you’re spot on when you talk about that side of it. Um, Broski, you know, has not been great. He has not been great at all. Um the Anaheim Ducks, yes, Anaheim has been outstanding. Leo Carlson 16 goals. Troy Terry with uh 23 assists. Cutter Godier has been amazing this crazy rivalry between Anaheim and and San Jose. I mean, that would be so wild to watch. Uh user says, “Who wins the Flames versus Sabres?” Um I would bet any team against the Sabres. The Sabres are going to win some hockey games. They are going to win, but yeah, I would never bet on Buffalo to win. Sorry Sabre fans. I I definitely would take the Flames in that one. Uh it’s like when Carlos Delgado played for the Jays, we heard all about Delgato until he went to the Mets. Yeah, you’re not wrong. Jonathan, what’s going on? Welcome in. never have to apologize, my friend. You think Florida will make the playoffs? Yeah, I mean, listen, Florida’s right there. Same as Toronto, right? They’re just a couple of points out. And don’t forget, Florida, Bob Rosski has been bad. Um, no Kachchuck until December, potentially January. No Barkov till the end of the season. So, they’re they’re kind of hanging in right now when they’re they’re beat up pretty good. Um, Evan Rodriguez, I think, has come on strongest lately. Verhagy of course is in there. Sam Bennett, they still got a lot of talent, but they’re they’re missing some key components. So Brad Marshon, the season he’s having is absolutely outstanding. So I fully expect, you know, what um what they’re going to be doing is battling and they’re going to be in it right down to to the wire. So you can’t count out the Florida Panthers. They’re just they’re just too good. They’re just too good. And um and again the season Brad Marawn is having is is he’s just an animal. He is absolutely beast. 16 goals for Marshy, 31 points. Can’t count that out. Sam Reinhardt again, five game-winning goals. He’s going to get going. So lots lots in the tank for the Florida Panthers as we get ready for the third period here in Toronto. The Maple Leafs with a one- nothing lead. But remember that uh Toronto is in the box. 43 seconds left of the power play and the Maple Leafs are going to have to get through it, clear it out and keep doing what they’re doing right now. They’re they’re just doing enough. It was a much better second period. Hopefully they can build on all the positive things they did and keep it going. Almost forgot to hit the like gumdrop.

We’re back tomorrow for the Toronto Raptors and the New York Knicks, the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup. The question is, will RJ Barrett be back in the lineup? I don’t think so. He’s got a sprained knee. he’s working through. So, the Raptors going to have to play without him. The Knicks beat them just a week ago or so, and they’re going to look to get back at it. That’s an 8:30 game tomorrow, the Raptors and the Knicks. But let’s get set here in Toronto. Will Matthews get on the board? Will Cooer find a way? Who’s it going to be? Yeah, Taz, I’m happy with it. I’m okay with it. Here we go. All right, Jeff. Sounds good. Let’s go. I got a sneeze coming. I can feel it. Tampa has the first puck. Going to bring this one up. 30 seconds on the power play into the zone. Tampa can’t set it up. Steven Lorent is going to steal. Stevie going to send this one down. Comes out in front. Lton couldn’t get there. Goalie plays it behind the net. Lton goes to pick it up. Steven Lorent is battling for it. Tampa going to pick it up though. Here comes Tampa. 15 seconds to go. Cooer off in the slot. Passes it over the shot. Nice save by the net minder. Hill to be with a great stop. Going to play this back to Cooerov. Tampa setting it up. Four seconds. Three, two, one. Side of the net. Kicking it out in the slot. Down is McCabe. It goes through him and Hilde is going to hang on to it. And a big crowd. Everybody comes in front of the net pushing and shoving. Gensel is in there. Scotty Lton is right in the middle. Everybody’s battling. Teresa, what’s going on? Welcome to Rookie. Good to see you, Teresa. Teresa, did you do your hair again? I I can’t tell because the picture is so small on my screen. What color is it, Teresa? Let us know. And thank you for coming in. It’s great to see you. So, some good stops here. That’s going to end the power play. So, we’re going to get back to five on five hockey. Oel solid D. Yeah, Joker. He is very, very solid. So, let’s go get set. Hill to be focused. Matthews in the draw going to win it. Nazis tried to put it back. Hegel jumped right on it. Back to the point. Here’s a quick shot. Knocked down. Loose puck. Comes over to Matthews. He’s going to just flip this one up. Gets it out to the red line. Going to back this one around. Here comes Matthews in over the line to stole the pass. Here’s another shot. And a nice save by Johnson. Puck goes loose into the corner. Hegel going to throw this one up and it’s going to come all the way down. Back forward is Riley. Riley going to turn bank this one off the boards. Big battle here for it. Matthews plays it to an open wing. Doy trying to get across, but Moser is there. Come on, Leafs. E4. What’s going on? Welcome in. Tampa waiting to tag up. They’re going to bring this one right back into the Leaf zone. Curling going cross ice pass. Quick stick by Doy. Knocks that one away. Not yet, Taz. Not yet. Back to the line. Holding this one. And O is my favorite Dman since he came besides Taniv. Yeah, Chris. He and he’s worthy of it. He’s been playing really well. I’m doing very well. E4, thank you so much for asking. So good to be back. So good to be healthy. Gio, what’s going on? Welcome in. Good game indeed. Good game indeed. Doy’s been playing all right. Thank you, Teresa. I appreciate it. You always make me blush. Off the draw. Here comes Willie. Willie going to flip this one through. Trying to get around and get it. Puck is going to roll just past the net. Tampa going to work it through and an errant pass. Comes into the Leaf’s zone. Lightning going into the corner. McKay bumping with Gunel. Ster I think was knocked off his feet but the puck comes over to Knander. Will he going to turn and go? That’s right Dallas. Never ever ever. Hey Ninja, what’s up? Welcome in. Thank you. Alvia Lillberg going to grab this one away and he’s going to send it down the ice. McCabe gloves it, puts it to a stick up to Cowan. Cowan going to bobble this one. This is going to go down into the corner. Good hustle here by the Maple Leafs. But I don’t want them to just play defensive. They got to keep the foot on. If they play defensive for too long, things are not going to go their way. This coming up Tampa Bay bringing it up in the zone around behind the net. Look out. Quick stick over to Wah. Wah waited a heartbeat too long. Played it in front. Loose puck. Good hit there by Simone Benwa knocking his man Jack Finley to the ice and the Leafs can ice the puck and then Mermis ends up getting taken down. And Mermis is hurt. Mermis is on all four and and here comes so Glen Caves. So, there’s all kinds of pushing and shoving going on. And Tampa is jumping Toronto from behind. And everybody, all right, we got some gloves down. We got to tussle. Crowser versus Dakota Joshua. Let’s go. We’re set. The gloves are down. They’re reaching. They’re reaching. Now they grab a shot over. Joshua with the left. Comes with the right. Another right. Another right. The helmet is off. And that’s going to be broken up real quickly as they go down. Not a great fight. Joshua got more on that. And Mermis is in all kinds of discomfort here. All kinds of discomfort. So where was the hit? So Ben Wall with a nice hit. Mermis goes to the corner. Glenn Caves comes running up. I didn’t see a knee on knee. It was too close to the camera. Guy in the truck. Can we get a reverse angle of that hit? So, not a great fight here. Koser and Joshua. Joshua got the better of him here. So, Glen Caves is scream. The linesmen are telling him he’s got to go to the box. He’s arguing about it. So, I think they’re giving him for kneing. I think kneing is what it was called. I’d like to see that reverse angle replay. So, Gonkavves is assessed a major penalty. So, so he comes up on Mermis. So, you can’t see the legs because the camera’s up at the glass and Mermis went down. I’d like to see. Here’s the reverse. Okay, let’s see. One, two, strides, glides, and knee on knee. So, it’s a knee on knee hit and Mermis goes down. I don’t think it was intentional knee on knee. So, this should probably get overturned back to a twominute penalty, but it goes up on the board as a major originally, and that’s in the rules. They make it a major. they can review it and decide to downgrade it or whatnot, but it is definitely a neon knee hit. And you hate to see these neon knee hits cuz they do they can do so much damage. No, Ninja, you know, I think these guys are just so big. I think the equipment is probably well within the dimensions of the rules, but these guys are just so big. Yeah, I mean they locked horns. He glided in. It’s not like he led with the knee or stretched to the knee. He just kind of skated right in them. So obviously the two guys will get five minutes each for fighting. And the question is what is this knee going to be? Is it going to be a a major or is it going to be a minor? So he takes a couple of strides. He doesn’t try and avoid the knee. He doesn’t turn to hit him. So I I don’t think there’s enough evidence in the footage to say he intentionally went after his knee. B boy free give him five in a game. I’d love to see that, but I don’t think that’s going to happen. I think it’s going to only end up being a twominute one. So, we’ll see. I hope I hope I’m wrong, but we’ll see what this call is going to be. I hope Mermis is okay. He was in some distress and had to be helped off the ice. So, they are still looking at it. And you’re right, the puck was gone for quite some time. So, it definitely is a late hit, right? It definitely is a late hit. No doubt. Here comes the official now. Let’s see the call. Tampa Bay 93 for a game. Oh, it is a fiveminute major in a game misconduct. So, Bobby McMahon also gets a match penalty for a high stick. I didn’t see the high stick. So 93 Tampa Bay is gone. Fiveminute major in a game misconduct. A match penalty of Bobby McMahon for the high stick. Hey books, welcome in. I didn’t see I was so focused on Mermis and then the scrum. I didn’t actually catch the high stick. Guys in the truck, can you find that high stick? I’d like to see that. So Bub a little confused as well. So Bub is talking to the official now to understand this. Zebo, what’s going on? Welcome in. Thanks so much. I appreciate the support. Thanks for coming in and saying hello. Hey Nick Joey, what’s up? Welcome in. Let’s see. Let’s see exactly what this Bobby is still waiting. So Bobby McMahon is going to be gone. Let’s see. Oh, so he gives him a little kind of hack on the head. So Bobby McMahon had his stick up. When they all came together, he got pushed and he came down with his stick. So Bobby McMahon is gone. So, a match penalty is the most severe penalty assessed for actions with intent to injure, resulting in immediate ejection from the game and a mandatory fiveminute power play. Oh, here comes Knander. Knander trying to feed this one across. So, when all is said and done, we’re going to end up even looks like no power plays. So, we got two minute two guys gone for fighting. Going to bring this around. I’ll I’ll go through all the penalties in just a sec as soon as we get a stoppage here or can I do this on the bottom screen? So, Gon Claves has gone five minutes for kneeing. So, he’s five minutes in a game misconduct. Bobby McMahon gets essentially a match penalty. It’s called for intent to injure is what it’s called. So, he’s gone. And it’s essentially a it’s listed as a 15minute penalty for intent to injure and that’s what started all the fights and stuff. So we got two guys ejected and then we got two guys Joshua and Croser for fighting. Here comes Tampa Bay right in. Good shot. Hill to be standing tall. This going to come out cycling it around. So Bobby Mack gets the match for intent to injure. Nice coming in. Leaves it here for Domy and to Matthews. He’s gone. No. Oh my goodness. Matthews all day and he couldn’t put that one in. So close. Nice. He’s keeping this one in. My secret identity. What’s going on? Welcome in. Yeah, you can’t axe chop. That is That axe chop with the stick is 100% a penalty. But yeah, it’s coming around. Here’s Tampa Bay with it. And that’s what really started the fights and stuff. Come on, Na. I want to see that replay. How did Matthews miss? Here’s Tampa up the middle. Going to drop this one back. Long shot. Hits something and is deflected up and at a play. Just got to settle down after that now. Just got to settle things down. But boy, Matthews all over there. Hey, Robert. How’s it going? Not a big hockey fan, bro, but I’m tuning in as soon as baseball starts. Awesome, Robert. Cannot wait for baseball. Will the Blue Jays be able to do it again? It’s going to be a another fun summer of Blue Jays baseball. I appreciate the support. Off the draw. Tampa going to hang this one in. Over to Coocher. Cooer has it taken away by Wah. He’s going to take it right back. Coocher seems like he’s possessed right now. Now he is just fighting along. Toronto having trouble trying to get it out of their own zone. 15 minutes to go here in the third period. The Leafs are up one- nothing. Back to pick it up is Hedman. Headedman going to slide it over to Moser. Long pass up ice. Intercepted by Bobby by Bobby Mack by Jake McCabe. Got it over to Wah who tried to hit Lton but that one was taken away. Let’s go. Hey Richard Matthews is cursed. Here comes Lorent into the zone. toes it back. Quick shot. That one’s going to go just wide. Tampa going to fling this one down the ice. Knander with it. Willie, he’s going to regroup in his own zone. Back over to Riley. Riley the goal scorer tonight. Going to send it down. And Jük going to tip this one into the zone. Tavvaris coming in here after it. But Tampa with some quick passing able to work this one out. They’re going to bring it up and over the line. Here comes Gensel. Gensel going to stop. Cycle around. Gensel back to the point. No shot. Now they shoot. It hits a leg. This one goes wide, wide right, picked up by Yarn Croc behind the net to Riley. Going to use the boards. Going to get this one out. Toronto in the neutral zone. Knander plays it back. It’s picked up. This should be intentional offside by Nick Ball. The faceoff should be down the ice. [Music] They’re going to go to commercial break as they never showed that Austin Matthews replay, but holy smokes, the Leafs have had some chances here. They’re buzzing. They got to keep things going. Come on, Matthews. Come on, guys. They are flying right now. They got to get some shots though. Got to get some shots. So, Bobby McMahon, if you’re just tuning in and you missed it, Bobby McMahon ejected from the game with a match penalty as he took his stick and brought it down like an axe chop over the head of Oliver Bjorkstrand as the two of them were engaged in some antics. Uh, Gage Gunkaves, he is gone. Five minutes in a game misconduct for Ning Dakota Mermis for a late hit in the corner. And then Dakota Joshua and Max Croser both five minutes for fighting as those two mixed it up at the end of that whole scuffle. So it was pretty pretty wild. Pretty pretty wild as they were mixing it up and going back and forth. But thank you so much for being here. If you are tuning in, make sure you’re hitting that thumbs up button for us. Hit that like button. And last but not least, make sure you hit that subscribe to the channel. We appreciate it so very, very much. And uh maybe the Leafs are gonna start rolling. The Leafs are going to get back in there and do some good things. So, we appreciate you all very much. Go Leafs go. It’s time to crush it. Tomorrow, if you’re a basketball fan, we’re back. 8:30 Raptors in the Knicks in the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup. Join us tomorrow night. hang out. Have some fun for the Raptors in the New York Knicks. Uh I don’t know if I have the flu. I don’t Oh, no. Oh, I hope you feel better. The flu sucks. Vladimir and that’s okay. That’s okay if it does. It’s been a heck of a game. They’ve been battling. They’ve been battling a lot. Potential first round match up for the Leaf can win this. Yeah, Chris. When these two teams face each other in the playoffs, it’s crazy. The tension is indeed high. Adriana, that’s awesome. That’s really funny. All right, here we go. Let’s go. Let’s go. Mr. Home Green, what’s up? The five on McMahon was a bit Yeah. Hey, Vic. Welcome in. Here’s Toronto. Riley going to carry it out of the zone. Long pass up to Willie going to be tipped down in the corner. Tampa going to pick this one up. It’s Radish. Radish going to start to work it up. Almost intercepted by Matthews. Cowan picks it up. He’s going to throw it in. And Radish actually knocks it down out of the air. Here’s Radish going to put it in the corner trying to curl around. He’s going to dump the Leaf player. Steter goes down. Gets popped back up. Homeberg around behind the net. Going to get it back to the point. Here’s a long shot. Kicked just wide. Tampa lets it go. Celli playing this one deep. It’s going to go all the way around the boards right now. Toronto is giving Tampa Bay the perimeter. They got to work. They got to get more aggressive. They can’t let Tampa Bay just run town here in the corner. There’s a big hit by Mabe taking his man down. Crowd wakes up after that one. Tampa Bay going to look to work it around. Pistachio. How’s it going? We’ll see. Here’s N. N turning sending this one down in the corner for Matthews. Over to Doi. Doi played it back out for Matthews. Too far for him to the point. Ecman Larson playing it down. Max Doi trying to re reach around. played it through the crease. Nobody there. Ben Wis pinches up. He plays this behind the net to Matthews. Around the boards to Doy. Doi centers it for Ekman Larson. Tips it to Ben Wis. Now the Leafs are working the perimeter. Back over to Max again. Sends it in the crease. Matthew Ny couldn’t get his stick on it. Two opportunities there for Toronto. Here’s Benis being watched by Hegel. Passes the puck up. Tampa has it inside their own zone. Both teams changing as Headman starts the rush. Passes this one up in over the line. Pass cross for Paul. Doesn’t connect as Toronto with a stick in the lane. Chips it out of the way. Here’s Riley to the boards for Yarncroak. He’s just going to flip this one up and get it down the ice. 1135 to go here in period number three. Toronto going to steal. Lorent trying to chip this one forward. Lorent trying to come through and he can’t take it all the way. Darren Radish with a nice stick lift. This is being dumped in for Nick Paul. Paul trying to turn the corner. Goes wide behind the net. Tampa to the point. A Lightning with a long shot. That one misses everybody. Toronto gonna pick this one up. They don’t use the glass. They flip this one high over the middle. Hits the back of Yarn Croak, but they have to tag up. Toronto now going to go get some fresh legs on. And once again, Victor Hedman behind the play in the Tampa zone. Brings the puck all the way back behind the net. Going to set it up. Hey there, Fred. What’s going on? Welcome in Bobby. Yeah, not a smart play by Bobby Mack. I’m sure he’ll have a uh a hearing about that one. This going to be played up. Toronto gives it away to Braden Point. Point cycling around. Nelander stops him. McCabe, he comes over, gives a little shove. McCabe still working. McCabe Wah Nelander all at the side here. Point doing a good job. Can’t get it past Willie. Willie going to go off the boards and it’s brought brought right back down by Tampa Bay. Gunsel bringing this one in. His pass gets knocked down and Cowan with a quick stick and a reverse of Polarity able to knock it out. Gensel back to get it in the Tampa Bay zone. Turning starting to bring this one up ice over across. Gensel right back in. Drops it for Cooerov being watched by Cowan. Cooch shoots. That one goes wide. Celli going to pick this one up. Back to the point to Radish. Over to Cooerov. He fanned on that but it goes right to the slot with a backhand and a nice save by Hildy. Another pass by Coocher off and this time it’s going to come all the way out and Toronto again going to change really closely. Kit, what’s going on? Welcome in. It’s at the side Tampa Bay trying to take shots wherever they can. Leaf’s going to use the boards up to Doi Doy to NY. NY’s going to play this one in. He got bumped, but he’s going in here after it. Moser whips it around the boards trying to keep this one in. Matthews to do shooting and that one’s going to go high. might have got a piece off the blocker and it’s going to go at a play. 934 to go. The intensity certainly picking up here as these guys are going back and forth. It’s the Leafs. It’s the Lightning. Third period action and we got a game here, folks. Holy smokes. Good shot. Pass wasn’t there. That’s right. Sometimes it’s you have a split second to make that decision if you want to pass or you want to shoot. But right now, Toronto still only has one registered shot in this period. Tampa has five. Uh, you can’t do that over the head. No, you definitely can’t do that over the head. You definitely, you know, it’s it’s when it comes to sticks, they’ll let you whack a guy. They’ll let you cross check and all that, but you cannot take your stick up high and give like a a whack down. Now, I don’t think he necessarily did it purposely. They were jawing back and forth and he did have his stick up and I think he was just kind of kind of pushing him off. I don’t think he meant to take it up and kind of axe handle him, but still you got to have control and you you just cannot do that. So, we’ll see what happens with Bobby McMahon and if he’s going to have any further hearing or disciplinary action, but uh yeah, you just can’t do that. Hey Dave, what’s going on? watching from Lakefield, Ontario. Love the show. Thank you, Dave. Appreciate it. Happy to have you along with us. Thanks for checking us out, man. These Leafs, these Leafs. What a ride this season has been, though, right? What a ride. From the poor start to picking it up, they’re looking much better now. We just got to keep plugging away. Just keep plugging away. 934 to go. Third period. All hands on deck. Can’t just sit back and play defensively. You got to keep the pressure. Got to keep moving the puck out of your own zone. Hill Deb has played a very solid game right now. But the Leafs, I think, defensively as a team have been playing a nice game today. Eastston, how’s the flight going? Is it good flight so far? that understand. That’s right. Sending them both was a statement for sure, Road Warriors. I agree with you there. Icing call against Tampa Bay. So, this is coming right back to the Tampa Bay side. Good. Glad it’s a good flight. These guys are just playing well. Bobby is a leaf. Of course, he’ll have a hearing. I think anytime there’s a match penalty called, it’s an automatic hearing. I believe Tvarus off the draw can’t win this one cleanly and Tampa Bay comes away with the puck. Lightning carrying it to the red line going to dump this one in. It took a funny hop. Riley saw it came. Couldn’t get this one out. Tampa putting pressure. Here’s a long shot. Gensel waiting back door. Puck couldn’t come to him. Radish going to send it around the boards. Too far for Gensel. Knander slow to get over. Gensel keeps this one in. Around the boards again. Back over. Radish pinching up. This comes to Celli. Celli walking and shooting. Nice save there is Hildabby. And the Tampa Bay player backs into Hildebe. And Hildabby still able to hold this one out. Puck is going to go off Tavvarus into the Maple Leaf bench. So with 849 to go, we’re going to get a little stop in play here. No power play, Ryan. No power play. The parlay hits if no one else scores. Good luck to you. I won the other day. I I usually don’t play, but we we picked I don’t even remember which game it was, but we took Tavvaris for three shots. We had the Leafs to win on the money line and the under and we hit. So, it was a nice nice little little win. The Goonies chase scene on in the background. Seems fitting. Ah, I love the Goonies. Goonies is the best. All right, here’s Tampa Bay in their own zone. I’m going to start to work this one up. Trying to bring it across. Lightning into the zone. Dropping it for Coocher. Coocherov centering it in the slot. Matthews broke that one up. Still scrambling. Tampa though still doing a nice job with the puck. Going to cycle this around down in the corner. McCabe, he’s getting bumped by Cooerov. Cut off trying to get it away from Matthews. Matthews played it to the corner. They’re going to hack this one out. Matthews is coming. Matthews and Nice. Twoon one. Matthews shooting. Oh, nice. Got a piece there. Good job by Tampa Bay goalender standing tall. He’s having a good game. Brennan Hegel, his pass gets knocked down by Matty N. Ny coming in. Tow drag shooting. That one’s going to go up and at a play for you guys. You actually won. Matthews did such a nice job. Toe drag in a shot. huge Noah Ryan. We’re going to be doing the Raptors tomorrow night for all you basketball fans. The Raptors and the Knicks tomorrow, 8:30 start time. It’s the quarterfinals of the NBA Cup. So, we’ll be here for that. So, if you’re a Raptor fan, join us tomorrow. Ben Wis going to back himself up. Going to play this around. 7:47 to go. Dakota Joshua tipping this right on goal. Tampa going to play it around the side. Let’s go. Toronto bouncing it off the boards. Back in their own zone. Working it across. Ben Wis long pass getting this one up and over into the zone. Tampa fighting around for it. The Lightning in their own end. Wah with a good job on the forche. Stalled them a little bit. Did you ever hear tow drag before Matthew? Oh yeah. This was you go back and look at at what Pavl Datsuk used to do. The way Datsuk controlled I mean the magician he was amazing with all his dangles. This around Toronto back to his the lightning zone could control it for a minute and then it’s brought right back out. Toronto up to Lton. Lton going to play this one in. Tvarus going to race up on it against Lillberg. Lillberg escapes him. Lton pinching along the boards up on the other side back to Tavvaris. Tavvaris, he can’t get it. Tampa going to reverse it and Tampa going to set up shop behind the net. Now they’re going to move this one forward. Here come the Lightning into the Leaf zone. Borkstrand dropping it. Shot. Nice stop off the right pad. Going to kick this one into the corner. Tampa going to work it over to Matthews. Matthews a little flip pass. Doy didn’t see where it was and that’s going to be a little too far and it’s going to be an icing call against Toronto. It would be a dream job to be Carlton. It would be a lot of fun. It would be a ton of fun. Being a mascot is tough though. I I had the opportunity and I’m not going to say which team, but know when I used to do some work for one of the OHL teams. I got to do mascot duty a couple times. It’s it’s hard work. Melanie, what’s going on? I’m doing great. Thank you so much. Back to the line. N is going to break this one up.

So they’re going to go to a commercial break. One- nothing Maple Leafs as they go to a power play. Less than five minutes to go here in period number three. We got a game. Uh I do, Brian, I do think the Leafs are going to make the playoffs. No doubt. I’m in fact very confident the Leafs are going to make the playoffs. for everyone.

Kathleen, what’s going on? Welcome in. Good to see you. My cousin Colin is a huge Maxi fan. He’s an Oiler fan. I do the same thing with Swayman. Nice. Yeah, I I get you. I get you.

Pass up to point. That one is intercepted by Steven Lorent to Yarn Croc. Give it to Lton. Oh, why didn’t he pass it? Why didn’t he pass it? He wasn’t shooting. Neither of them were shooting. They were trying to get it to Lton. And in the end, they don’t do anything. Missed opportunity. Here’s Tampa Bay coming right back. Stolen by Lton. He shoots for the empty net. Goes wide. And that’s going to be another icing call. You predicted 164. These teams better start scoring. That’s funny. 128 to go. So, not a great opportunity. And we got a timeout called here. Tampa Bay timeout. So, they’re going to take an opportunity. This is actually a really good opportunity for Toronto to catch some air. Brien Gav, thank you so much for hitting that subscribe and lighting the blue lamp. Let’s go. Uh Ryan, there’s 1:28 left in the game, but if you’re asking about actual time, it’s 10:16, 10:16 Eastern time here in Toronto on a very cold day and I think we’re getting some snow overnight tonight. All right, so the buzzer is gone for the end of the timeout. Let’s see how they’re going to do. Welcome in everybody. If you are just joining us, thanks for tuning in. Hope you’ll join us for some future games as well. I hope you’re enjoying our style of coverage. Make sure you hit that subscribe. It’s free. And if you’re watching on the TV, hi. Come back and join us again. Here we go. 128 off the draw. Toronto off the boards. It Oh, it’s blocked. Tampa keeps it in. Another opportunity and this is going to be bounced all the way down the ice. Another icing call. It goes to 117 now. 117. So Lton still on the ice. Of course, can’t change with all these icings. It’s a long minute, that’s for sure. Off the draw, it’s another scramble. Lton does a good job. Stetcher blows the tire, goes down in the corner. Stcher get up. Lton ripping it around the boards and this comes out. It’s not far enough for icing. Tampa in their own zone. Going to back it up. Here’s the pass. Cooer hammers this one into the zone. Get back in the net. Hilde came out. Missed it. Last minute to play. Here’s a long shot deflection. It goes behind Hildabby. He’s down. Scramble and he’s got it. Holy canoli. How did that not go in? Oh man. I think it’s Stetcher again sliding in to make the save. They went off the post. Off the post behind Hildebe and Stcher came in and stacked the pads behind him and says, “I’m not letting that one go in.” Stcher came in with a slide better than Isaiah Ker Falefa in the World Series. Came in to make a great play. He said up. I’m putting my feet against this post. It is not going anywhere, David. What’s going on? Welcome in. 50.3 seconds to go. Here’s Tvaris to take the draw. He’s going to win this. Toronto puts it off the glass. This is going to be down for an icing call. Tampa Bay stopped skating. They were watching. They realize somebody has to skate back and go get it. Oh, Jonathan with the freeze. Thanks, Jonathan. Oh, the slime. The slime. Here we go. Tavarus again. Let’s go. Thanks, Books. Scramble off the draw. Ny there in front. Look out. Oh my goodness. It came right past. Big poke check goes to the corner. Matthews is in there to Tavvaris. They’re tying it up. 33 seconds though. It doesn’t get out. Radish keeps this one in. Now it’s knocked down. Tavvaris gets drilled. The puck is rolling. Rolling. N is racing, but he can’t get there. Tampa keeps this one out. Tavvaris got absolutely posterized at the blue line with a hit. 13 seconds to go. this one in. Hildde grabs it. He’s going to rip it around the glass. Toronto tying it up. 5 seconds to go. Four. It comes out and they score with 6 seconds to go in the empty net. It’s an empty net goal. And I believe this is Austin Matthews who’s going to get credit. Matthews gets the goal. Tavvaris gets absolutely hammered. Hands up in the face of Tavvaris. He goes down. Radish stepped up on him, but they battle hard and Austin Matthews is going to get credit for this goal. He just trying to get it out and down the ice. He does. And with 6 seconds left, Matthews gets the empty netter. So if you had Matthews as an anytime goal scorer, congratulations. The puck is going to drop. The game is over and the Leafs shut out the Tampa Bay Lightning. Two nothing. An absolutely stellar game by Hillbe. He was You talk about a monster. He was a monster indeed. Excellent game for Hill to be. Let’s go down your stats before we say good night. Total shots 2924 in favor of Tampa Bay. Toronto went 10 in the first, eight in the second, six in the third. Tampa went 15 in the first, five in the second, nine in the third. Toronto ends up 54.5% in the faceoff circle. No power play goals. Toronto goes 0 for two. Tampa goes 0 for one. Uh 20 hits for the Maple Leafs, 16 hits for Tampa Bay. 14 block shots for Toronto, nine for the Lightning. 10 giveaways Toronto, 18 for Tampa Bay. 10 giveaways for Toronto is a much much better number. They had four in the first, five in the second, which means only one here in the third period. Thank you so much for hitting that subscribe, Caitlyn. Welcome to the community. welcome to the channel. Thank you for hitting that sub up for us. Um, an excellent, excellent job. Your two goal scorers, of course, Austin Matthews here for his 12th of the year. And Morgan Riley, his fifth from Eastston Cowan and John Tvaris. It was a big win. They needed this win um because it gives them an extra couple of points. Now, obviously, there’s some other games going on, but within the division, that two points is going to move Toronto to 32. So, they’re going to skip ahead of Florida Panthers. They are just behind the Detroit Red Wings in the Montreal Canadians who have 33 points apiece. So, it is neck and neck in neck and neck in the Atlantic division. It is so super super close, but holy smokes, what a game it was. And that’s just how this season is shaping up. It is absolutely bonkers right now. Uh I want to thank all the moderators for everything you do. Looks like Dennis Hildde is going to come out and be the number one star tonight. Is that Hillbe is going to be the number one star? Good on him. He absolutely deserves it. I assume Riley was another star and I guess Austin Matthews was star number three. We’ll have to see. I didn’t see who the third star was, but Hill to be and Riley definitely won two and we’ll see who that number third star was. Um, this was amazing. And yeah, it could be Mark. It could be his first NHL shutout. We’d have to confirm that, but I would I’d be willing to put money that you are correct there. The guy who had the parlay that got ruined with 6 seconds left. Oh, my secret identity. I didn’t even think of that. That is that is brutal. But thank you, mods. Thank you for everything you do. We appreciate you so much. To all of our channel members, thank you kindly u for supporting us with um membership. It makes a big difference for us. Um Teresa, thank you so much for becoming a member today.

This is a Samuel B12 experience on the SB12 sports network tech. He did come up big. He was huge. And okay, so here are the three stars. Hill to be was star number one. Riley number two. And Jansen, Yonas Jansen, the other goalender, the goalender for Tampa Bay, star number three. I agree with that wholeheartedly. Have an amazing night. Take care. Happy Tuesday. We’ll see you tomorrow, Raptors. Knicks. Peace. I’m out of here. Go Leafs. Go. [Music]
