It was a terrific game tonight. One that seemed to shock the hell out of the Bruins by the looks of some of their faces tonight. It was a beautiful thing to watch! Good structure, good form, sticking to game plan, being disciplined, and being there when the chances came!
Which questions were vanilla? I'm sure most dressing rooms ask pretty much the same stuff. How would you improve on it? Other than muzzling Mark Masters and Steve Simmons?
Im happy we won but we have to quit letting teams get a quick response 10, 12, 1:00, whatever that lack of a follow up shift is concerning and the lack of killer instinct and Woll had a hard time tracking pucks hopefully he rebounds
I don't think Woll has much to rebound from. The stats show a different story to the eye test in my opinion. He had tough, messy stuff to deal with tonight and repeatedly got shelled by the Bruins' best shooters. He still made the big saves where it counts and he's gotten very good at leaving the crease where necessary to cover and prevent broken plays from getting out of hand. He definitely had trouble tracking but he's been consistently good at it prior so I don't have any worries there, I think it was just the weird angles and screening. The team seems almost determined to prevent him from having clean games though. It's like they want him to be tested. Normally it's in the third but this game it was a problem throughout, leaving the Bruins' best players more than enough room to snipe.
@gormros I've wondered the same with Berube and this roster. He seems willing to let them struggle instead of deploying other options. To me it seems like he's only concerned with keeping a playoff spot. If sacrificing some points and a presidents trophy means forcing them to grow in key moments, I'm all here for it.
@@alltheworldsastage. yes there wasn't much of a team to work with but Binnington definitely did all the heavy lifting when he took over and put them in a playoff spot and then did everything to win them games to, now he earned a big contract and he's mid idk how he made Team Canada if I'm being honest Thompson is better but I heard their is a rift between him and Hill apparently though
I love Kniesy's modesty: "I was just trying to get it on net." Planned or not, his second goal was a highlight reel goal that I hope is on many top 10 lists after the year is done.
When the puck dropped and Austin used his size to smack that puck free , that aggressiveness is what they need , man up big man it’s time to play tuffer hockey , if you do you will win the cup this year
I’m so happy to see Auston playing again. Watching him skate and handle that puck is thrilling. Knies was amazing! And Mitchy was doing his Mitchy things as always! Love my Leafs 💙💙💙
The Leafs now have their mojo against Boston! I can see the Leafs winning a playoff series against the Bruins, this Spring. Florida is now the Leafs next challenge.
I'm looking forward to it. It's always great when the Habs and the Leafs are playing close tight games. It's always more exciting and fun to watch the two oldest teams go back and forth.
Give Knies another year or two, just needs to trust his ability size more ! Good hands can be that power forward they need . Wonder what he would be like at center ? If that was not a belt worthy night then scrap the belt!
Knies isn’t leaving Toronto was the only team to give him the chance to be signed. The rest of the league passed on him because of his injury. There won’t be arbitration Knies will sign & stay In Toronto for a long while.
So dumb Tavares isn't on team Canada, I got my tickets for 4 nations but feel really sad about players like Marchand going over Tavares. Listening to Jon Cooper talking about being comfortable with lightening players is also really disheartening. I don't care about the coach being comfortable. If I want to see the lightning play then I would go do that.... 16th place in the league and they're sending 3 players... What a joke.
Heard at the end Berube saying, 'get him to a point where he's fully healthy,' Hearing that I don't think they should play him against philly tomorrow. If they've proven that they can win without him why make him play a back to back against one of the bottom teams in the east. I don't want to see him re-aggravate his injury and sit out a while again.
the Bruins scoring so fast after the Leafs put one in the net was unnerving but the Leafs did fight back ..good to see ...great game and nite for the Leafs ...
That’s one nasty habit that keeps showings its ugly head this year. But we can be confident they’re a little different this year because the Leafs of old would lose games like this
MLSE should reinvent the hockey interview . Where is the energy? Why not do something new and entertaining for the viewers ? All we get is barely audible repetative corporate questions. If we are lucky we get the magician guy from the last vid.😂😂
Sucks? I don’t think so, they’re still a good team, when the reach Sens, Sabres and Canadians level, then I’ll say they suck, I’m still not comfortable playing them in any rounds in the playoffs, psychologically they have something over the leafs.
@@wolftrainservicesltd6418 well if you have all these years of experience. You would know that the bigger they are the harder the fall. Thats why injuries are way up in the NHL. ..Go try falling to the ground a few times and see how you feel.
Not good enough. First round exit. Where was Marner? We need to trade for a good two-way ref who can actual use his mic properly to announce penalties. Blah blah blah.
MATTHEWS / MARNER ....... ZERO goals .... 5 on 5 ... with first-assist to each other .... since the NASHVILLE GAME !! that was December 4 th !!! they basically have better chemistry ..... with anybody / EVERYBODY else, besides each other !!!

I keep saying the same. Not sure why they ignore the fact it’s time to separate the two. Last couple seasons I’ve said this. Just put them together during certain key moments.
Mathew Knies will never forget this game. I hope someone got the 3rd goal puck. ...Welcome back Auston Mathews, amazing line.
Marner went straight for it when he got the hatty.
Obviously
@sceptical2 Oh good, I was to busy doing back flips after Knies 3rd goal. I missed it.
Always love beating the Bruins. Let’s keep it going tomorrow!
Always love Boston beating the Leafs in the playoffs.
@@johndemerse9172that won’t happen this year. Bruins will be golfing before the leafs
@@GFY_FS Sure thing LOL Same thing every year.
@@johndemerse9172Boston sucks can’t even beat the islanders.
@@red3here Leafs suck, cannot beat Boston in a playoff series.
Mitch is unreal
He really is. Can’t stand the marner disrespect
He’s pretty real when hitting season starts
@@aarongn8083playoffs
@c_telking4433 let me guess, you're talking playoffs lol

Good structure, good form, sticking to game plan, being disciplined, and being there when the chances came!
Great effort boys. With Kniesy.
Mathew Knies is under rated, I have liked this player from the start! My sons will verify this!
Graig berube is such a smart motivator with all players. Soo happy he's our coach. 😊
Nothinsweeter than beatin Boston❤🎉😊😂Congrats on a great effort BY ALL!
1:26 “a four by six” like a true Canadian 😂😂
I’m not surprised Marner wanted to give Knies the empty net, he can be too generous sometimes but shooting it was 100% the right choice.
Knies was absolutely dominant-netting a hat trick, tallying 5 points, and finishing with a +6. Total game-changer.
I just wish one day the media would stop asking the most bland vanilla questions
Which questions were vanilla? I'm sure most dressing rooms ask pretty much the same stuff. How would you improve on it? Other than muzzling Mark Masters and Steve Simmons?
What a Knies Hat Trick goal 🎩🎩🎩 🚨🚨🚨
As long as the Leafs beat Bruins, everything is fine.
The top line was brilliant tonight. Matthews actually looked like himself. Hopefully, the worst is behind him. 🤞
Yeah, even in the interview he looks and sounds better.
Not to me.
What a game boys
Wooot well done boys ...GO LEAFS GO. #IBELEAF. ##LEAFSFOREVER
Well Knies is even better than I thought and I already knew he was good,

Berube barely had a team in St Louis and won a cup. Imagine now what he will do with this leafs team.
Ya took 3 potential gwg’s away from him

One of the beat writers sounds alot like Joseph Woll interviewing his own teammates
Way to go boys. Auston will give you a boost. Nice team game. LFG!
Thoroughly enjoyed the game, i thought it was the best game of the year. Knies was electric!
Well done ! Love defeating the Bruins on a Saturday night .
all of Knies’s goals have been beautiful since he’s got into the league lol
When the puck dropped and Austin used his size to smack that puck free , that aggressiveness is what they need , man up big man it’s time to play tuffer hockey , if you do you will win the cup this year
I’m so happy to see Auston playing again.
Watching him skate and handle that puck is thrilling.

And Mitchy was doing his Mitchy things as always!
Love my Leafs 💙💙💙
Mathew’s looked great tonight
McCabe solid paired with Tanev formible!
In Berube, we trust.
That's a good game .
Berube seems to know how to get the best out if his players.
The Leafs now have their mojo against Boston! I can see the Leafs winning a playoff series against the Bruins, this Spring. Florida is now the Leafs next challenge.
I must visit Arizona.
Wow.
What an Act say what a Team
Mitch is that Gray Hair?
Knies is a Tank
Love these Leafs
I thought knies was nathews when he scores. I was like oh that's not mattews
Excellent hockey
“He’s become a great 200ft player”…..
No waaay he’s that tall, I’m callin’ bullshit.
😂😂😂
Look out for the Habs! They are starting to get a vibe and may be a threat for the next 40 games. They may be in the playoffs!
Put McCabe on the PP, sit Rielly!
I'm looking forward to it. It's always great when the Habs and the Leafs are playing close tight games. It's always more exciting and fun to watch the two oldest teams go back and forth.
The habs suck
Who cares about Montreal
@tiogoala7654 what does that have to do with the comment😂
Whats with Count Dracula interviewing Mitch?
😂
Knies-a-Knies performance by Kniesy
The 2 goaltenders allowed the same amount of goals. Interesting.
Austin Mathews speaking well in front of a large media presence.
Morgan should be what McCabe is but defensivly more harder
It’s time to get ready for tomorrow. Go leafs go.
Matty Kniesss
I wonder of Mitch acrually aimed for Knies stick on that Empty Net 🤔 😂.
Anyone notice the thumb nail on buddy holding the phone, jesus
Give Knies another year or two, just needs to trust his ability size more ! Good hands can be that power forward they need . Wonder what he would be like at center ?
If that was not a belt worthy night then scrap the belt!
3:20 Short circuit Mitch. I'm Johnny 5
stop allowing that guy by the side of the net to remain open. better defensive awareness is needed. they need to be WATCHING for that!
From cub to wolf 🐾 Knies
Sign knies right now ! Before he asks for more
Might go to arbitration
He is an RFA. He is forced to stay unless another team gives him a ridiculous offer
Knies isn’t leaving Toronto was the only team to give him the chance to be signed. The rest of the league passed on him because of his injury. There won’t be arbitration Knies will sign & stay In Toronto for a long while.

Good game tonite except for getting scored on right after getting a lead.
Jesus buddy, cut your thumb nail what are you doing.
Just gross I noticed right away when he was asking the question. Barf
Parade incoming 😅
When can we drop Reilly? It’s time to go.
Joe woll
Matty knies future captain baby
3:18 😂😂😂
Go leafs go
Media doesn’t know how to ask ? To make the guys feel loose so much stupid silly questions

Good win! Hate them Bruins.
Boston really sucks now haha, arent the team they once were.
Same goes for the leafs, except we changed for the better. Glad to see it.
Sucks? I don’t think so, they’re still a good team, when the reach Sens, Sabres and Canadians level, then I’ll say they suck, I’m still not comfortable playing them in any rounds in the playoffs, psychologically they have something over the leafs.
People will say anything to discredit the first place leafs
@@ivirflawless9829 not discrediting the leafs, im just saying that boston has really fallen off.
McCabes nose is so bent 🤣🤣

Trade Rielly already while you can if you can
Still need to trade mathews.
Lmao you’re definitely not a leafs fan, nice try Habitant soup. I wouldn’t trade Matthews for the whole Canadians team. 😂
Learn something about hockey LOL
Stop with the Trudeau canabis rots the mind.
I've been a leafs fan since 1966. I don't like mathews now to much injury time. It's a business trade him now while there's still value.
