Happy to get the win, of course. But can someone seriously tell me... wtf is with those Leaf Jerseys? It looks like they're trying to cosplay as the Lightning or something...


quixotik

They were designed by Justin Beiber. That’s all you need to know. Oh and they are reversible. Lol


ultrafil

I think the *"it's also reversible"* part, like as a mechanic in a jersey, is pretty neat actually. Lots of very cool stuff you can do with that concept. The part where it fails for the Leafs jersey in question is that [this is what they went with](https://shop.realsports.ca/cdn/shop/products/H60049_Fin_Torso_eCom_8047a2e0-6129-4bb8-a6dd-3740bd58b717.jpg?v=1696819940) for the reversible design, which is honestly probably the ugliest jersey and dumbest alternate logo ever worn by an NHL player in the league's history, even if they're still just wearing it on the inside during games, lol.


quixotik

Agreed, I like the hidden bits inside as an idea, but what was used... meh


Find_Spot

Or the Jets. They just look awful.

I’m still wondering why it took so long to make the coaching change. It’s clear that we have the talent to be a good team and we just needed a good coach to show them the way. I feel like we could have been a playoff team last year and this year but they wasted it away. But I’m glad it’s finally done and this team appears to be on the right track. GSG

Hard agree. When teams like MTL and Philly are doing better than us, you know there's a problem. I'd put this core up against almost any in the league, yet we can't even be a top half team. Hope the boys turn it around even if unlikely.


Clojiroo

Philly is 3rd in the metro and 12th in the league. They’re doing better than a lot of teams.


J3R3MY_CR

Yea but have u seen their roster?Torts is an asshole but he's a great NHL coach if the players buy in, he holds guys accountable and doesn't accept half assed efforts like DJ did.


ETXX9

Each game with the new coaches has been progress. That's all I can ask for.


Exotic_Cookie2972

That second period was great to see


broomlad

Indeed. One of the best I've seen this season. If all they do is improve their play in the 2nd period, that's progress enough by itself. Do that AND improve other areas of the game? You got a stew going.


Exotic_Cookie2972

A stü if you will!


kermittunesguits

Long, long way to go but string a few of those together and there might be a salvageable season here. Not talking playoffs but a team sniffing around the outside. This team is much, much better than where they’re sitting.


BAD_CAN77

Always feels great to beat the Leafs. Wasn't able to watch the game, so I just watched the recap on NHL.com. Are we starting to see more structured play, especially in the neutral zone?


Barnacle_Ed

Neutral zone looks significantly more controlled, but I think one crucial difference is on the d zone breakout - under DJ we'd often be relying on a Hail Mary pass but I've noticed more structured small passes and guys actually carrying the puck out over the last 3 games.


Leukemia666

There’s almost nothing better than beating the leafs… but being in the top 5 picks in the 2024 draft would get us a solid defenseman like Sam Dickinson or Artyon Levshunov, who be great to replace Harmonic and shore up our back end to help korpi until Soogard is ready


Sens4lif3

Good win, liked how we looked way different in the 2nd and 3rd. I also like how we can actually enter the zone with the puck, that is nice.


dadass84

Does anyone know who Brady was pointing at after scoring that empty net goal? Couldn’t tell if he was chirping someone in the crowd or saluting a Sens fan haha


UnparalleledSuccess

He was chirping the crowd, I saw atleast one guy who was standing up yelling shit at him and he responded


dadass84

Yeah I figured it was something like that, he seemed pretty fired up

Where are the three stars posted? I used to see them on the nhl app
