[Smitty-48]

They're lucky to have gotten out of that period only down 1-0

If they come out flying they can salvage this game in the second

Still got a bad feeling tho : Holl & Marincin is looking pretty shaky.

Not seen much of Nylander tonight.

Not seen much of Nylander tonight.

None of the Loafs stars are showing up tonight, including Andersen, this is what phoning it in looks like.

Keefe has pulled Andersen in desperation, mercy pull/wake up call.

Goaltending change to try to spark the team.

[Montegriffo]

Yamamoto sinks Anderson.

Nice feed to Spezza by Pierre Engvall

Engvall continues to generate points

7th round pick, 188th overall

What is a delayed penalty?

[Smitty-48]

What is a delayed penalty?

The penalty doesn't start until the penalized team gets the puck back

In the meantime the other team can put an extra man on for a 6-on-5 advantage.

The delay lasts for as long as they can control the puck, so it's extra powerplay time on the "delayed penalty"

[Smitty-48]

Sheldon Keefe calls a time out to ask his lazy entitled prima donna stars to put some effort in.

Doesn't really work, Loafs get a total of three shots on a five on three advantage

Phoning it in.

[Montegriffo]

4-1 down going into the 3rd.
Going to have to be another last period comeback or the Oilers are getting their first win away to the Leafs in 10 years.

[Smitty-48]

Matthews, Marner, Nylander, Tavares, Rielly & Andersen all fail to show up.

The third and fourth lines are playing hard, the star players have taken the night off

I had a feeling this was going to happen, they were due, the media has been fawning over them of late

This is a team that reads its own press releases, they can't help it in the Toronto Fish Bowl.
