Through two games, Lorentz has looked like the Leafs best player. Nothing flashy to his game but he's hard on pucks, excellent on the PK and looks like he's giving everything he's got every time he's on the ice. Nice to see him get rewarded with a goal tonight
Man, Third and Fourth lines are creating a lot these past two games. Great stuff! First line is hitting too many posts but it'll start going in eventually and Second line, Domi + Tavares have generated good offence. Once Nylander starts going, this team will be hard to beat, and that's all we wanted
Lorentz is such a well spoken guy. So refreshing to have some real personality in these interviews, instead of the usual hockey answers were so used to. Hildeby was fantastix today to, hes got a bright future
I wouldn’t be surprised if he wouldn’t give his all to become a future assistant coach / head coach for the leafs… he has the personality that every guy respects and the heart for his city, aside of that, listen closely, he understands the game very very well on how to win and how to play the right way.
I swear Lorentz gives the best interviews. So much energy, high positivity, just seems like an incredible guy to be around. So happy about that signing.
@@FrankD23 Leafs fans don't have much playoff success so we get excited about things like that. You know this. For example, I've had to tone down my rhetoric re: Patches because even I was like "Dude chill." That being said, if this guy is just spamming with the same comments, then that's different.
Loved Hildeby saying his parents watched just because he was on the bench first game! Every parent can relate! So happy he got his first NHL game and Wn.
Once hakanpaa is ready, he replaces Timmins id assume, Benoit and hakanpaa on the third pair throwing there weight around, or maybe OEL and Hak on pair 2 and reunite the bang bros (mccabe & benny)
Love Berube. Especially how he chooses not to be the players personal cheerleader. He's reserved with his praise and always points to things that can be better. Didn't make a big deal of Lorentz's and McMann's goals.
Why, when I see Lorentz, I'm like "Why don't I see this energy more?" The guy is behaving like he's a Leafs fan that is living his dream, which is exactly what he's doing. Like he's excited, bright-eyes, laughing, smiling, like he's literally bouncing in that interview. I hope with so much that he keeps this up.
Good game but time to split up pp1 have 2 balanced units that compete, and put Larson on pp1 he can shoot adds different dynamic from the point, Bobby needs to stay in the line up, great game by both goalie s both nights and bottom 9 like the D, also can Marner, Nylander and Mathews snap out of it, let's go boys. GLG!!!!
Yup and OEL is always quicker in the neutral zone with the puck and decisions . Rielly is slow moving the puck through the neutral zone and is sooooo predictable. He can’t QB a PP and has no shot whatsoever
Leafs under Berube look extremely good. They are playing playoff style hockey. Elite PK, elite defensive structure, strong forecheck. The PP tho is abysmal, put everyone on their shooting sides
@chamber32doors You clearly haven't been watching. 95% clean passes, 6 shots on net yesterday, same as Matthews, and has helped Matthews with defense. I get your biasy but atleast pay attention
Not going to lie, it's exciting to see the third and forth lines have this tenacious energy. Go, go, go, energy! Let's hope the top six can catch this vibe. Goaltending is looking really good, and the defence too. Less Rielly on the PP!
Love McMann… hard worker! Lorentz another hard worker! 2 great players! Bottom 6 look great to start the season, let’s hope they can carry it through the season.
I like Burube's equal opportunity offense. We arent gonna be winning a Cup unless they play as a team. That means less goals for our top guys. But more fun and cohesive. Its been proven every playoff season they can beat the Leafs by shutting down our top guys.
No lie I was worried to play HildeBeast against NJ for his 1st regular season game but man he looked poised and in control and with Stolarz were in a good place!
Day by day. Nourishment greatness. Exercise diligent positivity. Foremost treat your life properly as to preserve you(s) results. I see that the organization needs to show you in the class room the statistics day by day about practice, (how you responded and felt) to know if your tired or maintaining proper training. Showing statistics graphs may be boring but for those wanting to excel, they learn from statistics that the team produces. If you don't comprehend, then have a friend explain in a gentlemanly fashion. Let's Go Toronto Maple Leafs!!! Positivity always!! Find the positive even in the negative. Learn you and how you want and choose to react. Looking forward positively to a stellarly grand season.
We are quick but because the natural repetition has been worked, is why the guys aren't letting them fly at spot moments. Need to Believe in yourself, because your teammates do, they all want what's the best for you and the transition of that is confidence.
Heldebeast is the real deal and will only get better. The PP will be worked out as I’m sure they will go over video and work on executing. Love the PK and Lane Lamberts enthusiasm on the bench, think the buds will have a top 5 PK this season with all the bodies they can throw out there. The best thing about that game was the contribution from the bottom 6. If Berube can throw those players out and who are a threat to score and defensively responsible every time they’re on the ice, that’s what we need when teams try and shut down the top 6. All four lines rolling. Going to be fun to watch this season!
I love the changes Tree has made this season from the Bench Boss down. Chief is an incredible coach. Watched Keefe's new conference too, Although I like him as a person, his coaching style became stale in TO. You know he wanted to win this game badly but the proof is in the pudding. Nylander seems frustrated but he's got to learn to be tougher. I feel hopeful as a longtime Leaf fan for the first time in a long time. Now let's crush Pittsburg!
Similar performance to Game 1 except the Leafs had more dangerous scoring chances tonight. PP still struggles. Line 4 is still awesome. Great Leafs goaltending. Knies, OEL, Tavares, and Pacioretty looked excellent!
Outside of our tendies (who BOTH look like absolute studs) anx our new defensemen (Tanev 100% as adrevised, EKL also looking great), Lorentz Patches, McMann, and Knies seem to be the forwards showing up to play. John got the gun out, but none of the other big 4 have shown up yet sad to say.
“Awesome to see” , “our line played fast“ , “big body good stick“ , “have fun, play my game“ , “the beast?“ , “that was pretty cool” , “you only play your first game once“ , “bang one in … it’s a lot of fun“ , “consistent part is the hardest part“ , “.we have extra guys..“ , “…three penalties, it’s non-negotiationable….“
Game 2: congrats to the Hildebeast 🎉. Leafs stole 4 cookies from a jumpy bunch of jet lagged kids. A few guys connect (Robertson and Holmberg, Domi will find anyone’s stick but the receiver has to be smart with it, 4th line looks like fun the rest is a bunch of individuals for now. Hope the Leafs will become a TEAM and start to gel more / really help each-other out.
Four days rest from a short trip probably not jet lagged. Leafs on Back to Back. First time goalie between the pipes. Call it even. Nobody stole anything here.
The top line was another disappointment tonight. Like Berube said, they’re playing too cute at times, and trying to pass it to the net rather than just shooting. It’s so frustrating to watch. The zone entries were less than AHL level too.
@mayhem2906 Honestly, Matthews and Marner looked decent in game 1 and not as good tonight. The PP top line looked awful but 2nd line looked a little better. Tavares has been his regular self. Nylander has been the worst player in both games. 2 total shots (1 each game), several giveaways, bad penalty, and threw a temper tantrum when called. I do believe the refs missed alot and called others that normally doesn't get called but that's a regular thing against this team. The bottom 6 have looked the best, especially Lorentz and Robertson. Goaltending has been good though
@@jeffreycairns767 mean like i agree matthew’s, marner and nylander have exactly started the way i thought they would but hey it’s an 82 game season, still lots of gamesleft
@mayhem2906 That's true, but your comment was based off of the past 2 games. I do expect things to turn around soon for the 3 and hopefully when it does the bottom 6 won't start slacking. I'm happy with the goaltending. Although I didn't expect Woll to be out so soon, I've been saying for awhile that I expect Stolarz to be #1. Unfortunately, we won't see much of Hildeby soon, as Murray is #3 once he's brought back up
Congrats to Hildeby on his first NHL win. It's a very short body of work so far but I have more hope in him than a guy who's undependable because he's always injured.
magic mitch could easily be the highest goal scorer every year while he is clearly very very creative but PLEASE MITCH SHOOT THE F>>>> PUCK when you AGAIN have a clear shot !!!!
@andrewdockrill ? I'm not at all making a joke. I'm pumped!!! That was a pretty great game and it's great to see we have some great goaltending, notably, out of 3 of our 4 goalies. Line 3 and 4 on fire too. That's how you win the cup! Edit: that's not a knock on Murray, just haven't seen him play this season
Through two games, Lorentz has looked like the Leafs best player. Nothing flashy to his game but he's hard on pucks, excellent on the PK and looks like he's giving everything he's got every time he's on the ice. Nice to see him get rewarded with a goal tonight

Great game by Hildeby! He has a bright future ahead of him. Enjoy your first win in the NHL. You deserve it!
I dunno how the heck we ended up with Lorentz but damn glad we did! What a great dude and player!
Great games from Hildeby, Lorentz, and McMann.
OEL and Tanev was nice and steady. They deserve credit too.
@@hottuna2006this team has a chance to be really good. If they stay healthy they are extremely deep at defence and forward and hopefully goalie too

Solid bounce back win. Good job boys
They would have won last night had it not been for Montembault going superhero mode.
Steven Lorentz seems like the type of guy who would smile getting socks for Christmas 😅 so cheery. I'm almost jealous.
Great comment haha. The dude has great energy. Infectious
@Lawrence-vi7qk exactly ! The type of stuff you need to gel the boys together! Helps he's a solid player too.

He’s fantastic with the media. Beauty.

Yeah McCabe and OEL don’t look good together
Big D and even bigger Goalies
Hildebeast already speaks better English than half of Toronto.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 FACTS 😂
Hahahahahaha that is so true 😂😂
I bet he uses a toilet as well!
Love Berube. Especially how he chooses not to be the players personal cheerleader. He's reserved with his praise and always points to things that can be better. Didn't make a big deal of Lorentz's and McMann's goals.
Agreed. But he also won't throw his guys under the bus and will defend them to the media.
McMann needs to play every game
He might be a better fit on line 1 vs Knies. But gotta give it time and not do the perpetual line juggling like Keefe
God Dennis Hildeby is such a gem man ❤
9:27 How refreshing to listen to this player. Seems very happy to be A Leaf.
Good job JT nice goal tonight
JT is a goof… why interview him? Mathews is the capitane

Nice back hand goal Lorentz good job tonight
Love McMann… hard worker! Lorentz another hard worker! 2 great players! Bottom 6 look great to start the season, let’s hope they can carry it through the season.
Lorentz is the type of player who we will need in the playoffs. He’s the guy we have been missing for the past couple years.
GIVE LORENTZ AN EXTENSION NOW!!!!!!!!!! IM WAITING BRADDDDDDD
I dont think hes eligible to be signed to an extension until January or so.
Give him the Miles Wood or 2BC deal 1.5x8
May want to wait more then 2 games
Two games played is not the time to talk about that.
Matthews is Captain but JT was the first guy out to speak to media and Matthews never even spoke..lol
He spoke yesterday
They stripped him from his captaincy.. Kind of humiliating
Hildabeast
Nice job, BTM 6. Love it.
John's interviews are WAY more relaxed and fluid now. Wonder if the C felt like too much pressure?

Hildabeast still learning English. God I wish these reporters would back off. More pressure talking then playing
...he's swedish. i can assure you his english is perfectly fine and he fully understands it.
I wish you would stop giving him that nickname until he actually proves himself
Woot..
Go Leafs Go 🎉

None too surprising. The big money ain't the big heart.
Nice goal by the real captain
Is anyone thinking more along the lines of Stolarz/Hildeby vs Woll/Stolarz?
Yes lol
THE BEAST IS LOOSE
So do we now refer to Stolarz and Hildeby as the Twin Towers?
Sheldon glad to see you off the leafs bench this year finally don’t have to listen to you anymore
Solid road game, boys. Just gotta stay disciplined and limit those careless penalties and get the PP going. Home opener this Saturday. GLG!
Get used to that.. the leafs love Take unnecessary stupid penalties.

Matthews could of had 3 goals by now with hitting posts. The lineup is good for Sat, just change the PP because it stinks after two games.
Funny to see Keefe losing his cool, from behind another bench! lol
Marner has got to start stepping it up or this will be it.
It was it years ago. This is the game he plays man, he's been in the show for A DECADE. He is not ever going to play up to his potential.
removing the C from this man was a mistake.
