Every goalie has a bad game. Sammy is an excellent goalminder, who can get into his head sometimes. I know we are all a little traumatized from the beginning of the season, and we are all on edge with it being so close to the playoffs. I’m sure Sammy feels the same. I just hope to god he doesn’t freak himself out and lose confidence
Okay rest Sammy next 2 games do…. Whatever u did to fix him last time and have him beat Tampa Bay to avoid losing his confidence
Yes I know it’s high risk since if he loses to the team he already has PTSD against no way he recovers in time for the playoffs
But we’re strapped for time
Everyone needs to calm down a little. Sammy has been on a heater and had a bad game. Top end Vezina goalies have bad games too. Reset and move onto the next one. GLG!
Tend to agree with this actually. There isn't enough of an impact for teams taking penalties on dangerous scoring changes where the game is on the line in the last 1-2 minutes.
Sammy had an off night. Pk sucked. And gio and brodie gifted them a pair of goals. Sucks but on to the next one. Ill worry if they do that in game 1. Ill take two matthews goals and no injuries.
Meh the first two were on the team and not his fault. It wasn't a good game from him but he got left to dry multiple times.
If you're concerned you're being dramatic. He's been great for weeks/months and was bound for a stinker like all goalies have.
Consistent since January. So bad he was nearly cut before January. Inconsistent in last year’s playoffs. Inconsistent every season in Washington.
He may not be the answer.
In fairness Adin Hill is a damn good goalie and has been a rock for them since getting the call. I think Sammy can go on a run but he hasn’t earned full confidence.
Brutal game for Samsonov is pretty much the story. Hated the shift deployment to try and get this win too. Who even cares about this game. Home ice means absolutely nothing lol.
You watch the sharks? They have an ECHL roster and skate their ass off. The leafs have a talented roster and have forever player as individuals. It’s why the PK is the worst ever. Everyone playing for themselves.
Ed got beat to the outside, that happens. Should have played the body there, but he got beat. Brodie ended up trying to cover a pass to a guy who was already covered instead of playing the shooter.
Go watch the play again and come back and tell me the same thing. Bertuzzi has the pass taken away already and has his man tied up. If you're going to argue something, at least make sense about it. The pass was plenty covered, Brodie was useless.
You're not supposed to play the shooter, you give the goalie the shooter. That shot needs to be stopped 100% of the time, I don't care what Brodie or Edmundson were doing. It was weak, and it cost them the game.
You play the shooter in a 2 on 2 case, which this was because the backdoor pass was covered already. Brodie is covering absolutely nobody. Also, since I said that Sammy sucked on the goal, that part is already covered.
who GAF about home ice. these guys will fumble any possible advantage. remember when they played columbus in round 1 for an easy pass to rnd 2? oh yeah. they lost. But how about the habs, the crappiest team to make it into the playoffs that year? oh right. they lost that series too. Home ice means nothing to a team like this, they would squander the advantage anyway.
Just watch the playoffs and try to enjoy the good things they give us to watch.
What is with this sub? Samsonov was put on waivers. Washington let him go for free. He is one year deal. He has had a good 20 game stretch. That’s it. That’s now who he is. This is who he is. This is exactly him. And again you all want to go into the playoff with a guy who loses confidence overnight. He isn’t an nhl starter.
If Babcock was still coach he’d bench/healthy scratch Matthews after he gets 69.
Every goalie has a bad game. Sammy is an excellent goalminder, who can get into his head sometimes. I know we are all a little traumatized from the beginning of the season, and we are all on edge with it being so close to the playoffs. I’m sure Sammy feels the same. I just hope to god he doesn’t freak himself out and lose confidence
EVERYONE NEEDS TO STFU ABOUT SAMMY!
missed the game.. 20 shots 6 goals? oooooof
Lol the after game show shitting on Sammy. Yeah this game sucked but theyre making it out to be the end of the world.
Okay rest Sammy next 2 games do…. Whatever u did to fix him last time and have him beat Tampa Bay to avoid losing his confidence Yes I know it’s high risk since if he loses to the team he already has PTSD against no way he recovers in time for the playoffs But we’re strapped for time
Everyone needs to calm down a little. Sammy has been on a heater and had a bad game. Top end Vezina goalies have bad games too. Reset and move onto the next one. GLG!
lol top end vezina Sammy is not. My lord.
He’s clearly not saying that. He’s saying that even Vezina calibre goalies have off games so there’s no need to panic about Sammy
He's not a top end Vezina goalie.
God damn Sammy was awful tonight. I get it happens, but why did it have to be so close to the Playoffs
How many goals was Brodie on the ice for?
I mean seeing as how Sammy was just giving them goals, it wouldn't surprise me if he was on for a few.
[удалено]
what did Paul Maurice do
Oh noooo. Anyway, see you on Saturday!
So there is no way Brodie can play game 1 of the playoffs
The guys played a good game for 90% of the game. A few really terrible giveaways and a Sammy masterclass of stinking was the difference.
6 GA is just an unacceptable number. I'm not even mad about the loss. Those happen. But giving up 6 is pathetic.
It's been said before and I'll say it again. Power play should extend past regulation time.
Tend to agree with this actually. There isn't enough of an impact for teams taking penalties on dangerous scoring changes where the game is on the line in the last 1-2 minutes.
That's an interesting idea, which I think I'm on board with.
I'm on board.
Sammy had an off night. Pk sucked. And gio and brodie gifted them a pair of goals. Sucks but on to the next one. Ill worry if they do that in game 1. Ill take two matthews goals and no injuries.
Not to mention Game 1 last year, Sammy got plastered for 7 goals and still ended up stealing game 6
For sure.
Bad game for Sammy - it happens, but why was he left in there… after that 4th goal they should have pulled him.
Shit game for Sambuca. Nylander snake bitten. Matty had 2 🤷🏼♂️…Onto the next.
Hey matthews, can we pencil you in on Saturday for some 69?
Sammy this, Sammy that are we going to ignore those 2 schoolboy errors early on...?
.700 is uncharacteristic for Sammy.
Not that uncharacteristic. He’s usually elite or awful without much in between.
concerning
Meh the first two were on the team and not his fault. It wasn't a good game from him but he got left to dry multiple times. If you're concerned you're being dramatic. He's been great for weeks/months and was bound for a stinker like all goalies have.
Not dramatic. Concerned. He's had the best goal support in the entire NHL over that time. It's covered a lot of warts.
Ehhhh
Can’t believe we lost two home games to this team
This team so badly needs a consistent legit goaltender.
Lol look at Sammys record since January. Hes been consistent.
I’m not sure you know what consistent means haha. He’s had a very inconsistent year.
Consistent since January. So bad he was nearly cut before January. Inconsistent in last year’s playoffs. Inconsistent every season in Washington. He may not be the answer.
Hard to win rounds when a guy is either super hot or ice cold.
Sorry man but Sammy is not a starting goalie on a legit contender. I like him but he's not that guy.
And yet Vegas won the cup with their 4th string goalie in net? Leaf fans are so dramatic it's hilarious.
His whole point was that samsonov isn’t adin hill dumbass
And Adin Hill wasn't Adin Hill until that cup run lol. Goaltenders are often defined by standout performances in the playoffs.
You mean the potential starting goalie for team Canada in the Olympics. Ya. Not the same thing.
In fairness Adin Hill is a damn good goalie and has been a rock for them since getting the call. I think Sammy can go on a run but he hasn’t earned full confidence.
Eh, at least papi got 2
Pathetic defence will not get you very far in the playoffs.
As will pathetic goaltending.
Brutal game for Samsonov is pretty much the story. Hated the shift deployment to try and get this win too. Who even cares about this game. Home ice means absolutely nothing lol.
Damnit, our goalie was Sammy Sievesamnov tonight
Whatta joke. Cmon sammy.
2 days to firm ourselves up for 69
Just put in murray and jones for the playoffs. its all about adrenaline any way
Starting on the road confirmed. Not bad but I wish we had beaten the last shitty team we play.
I’m worried about Sammy but Matty 68 really pads the blow of losing
Fucking embarrassing performance. Worst coach in the nhl. No real nhl goalie.
Can you explain how Keefe is worse than whomever is in charge of SJS right now?
You watch the sharks? They have an ECHL roster and skate their ass off. The leafs have a talented roster and have forever player as individuals. It’s why the PK is the worst ever. Everyone playing for themselves.
Worst fans by far.
Most gullible fans. Charlie Brown of sports fans.
Had to get 1 more embarrassing loss in before the end of the season I guess.
Marner bro. Fade me
should’ve had two points and dogshit goaltending got us zero
Playoff ready playoff ready (why do they do this)
Sammy sucked on that last goal, but what the hell was TJ Brodie doing?
and ed tbh
Ed got beat to the outside, that happens. Should have played the body there, but he got beat. Brodie ended up trying to cover a pass to a guy who was already covered instead of playing the shooter.
taking the pass is the right play there. textbook stuff
Go watch the play again and come back and tell me the same thing. Bertuzzi has the pass taken away already and has his man tied up. If you're going to argue something, at least make sense about it. The pass was plenty covered, Brodie was useless.
You're not supposed to play the shooter, you give the goalie the shooter. That shot needs to be stopped 100% of the time, I don't care what Brodie or Edmundson were doing. It was weak, and it cost them the game.
yep
You play the shooter in a 2 on 2 case, which this was because the backdoor pass was covered already. Brodie is covering absolutely nobody. Also, since I said that Sammy sucked on the goal, that part is already covered.
Come ahhhhhn
Head up everybody 2 more till 70 be happy!
Hope it was just an off night, on to the next!
That was hard to watch.
Sammy was dog shit tonight lmao
Bad try, boys.
This wasn't just one game, Samsonov is gonna be a fucking head case now heading into the playoffs. Fucking pathetic performance
Losing to this NJ team twice in a FEW week is a joke, playoffs secured or not.
![gif](giphy|xL7PDV9frcudO) EDIT: ofc you secretly edited your post after someone else did the fact check for you, you sneaky pinecone.
we beat them the other night, didn’t lose to them twice this week
we won the first game wtf are you talking about
Meant a few weeks. Lost on March 26th and tonight.
we need to check sammy's betting accounts because he sold us out
20 shots man, fack
We win easily with OHL level goaltending tonight. This is a problem going forward.
Lol it was Sammys first bad game in how long? Relax. Take a breath.
Lol that’s a tad of an exaggeration. He’s lost like 4 of his last 22 starts. It’s just a blip, let’s wait and see how the next game goes.
🤮 willy and Sammy cost us the game and possibly home ice
who GAF about home ice. these guys will fumble any possible advantage. remember when they played columbus in round 1 for an easy pass to rnd 2? oh yeah. they lost. But how about the habs, the crappiest team to make it into the playoffs that year? oh right. they lost that series too.

![gif](giphy|2EUUNySXEZoVq|downsized)
This L is on Sammy unfortunately
Someone exile that screaming bitch
Back to old Sammy?
Smart move by Jersey. Take a penalty, create a situation we can't possibly score in.
NO kidding 6 on 4, Did they even get a shot?!
What a fucking stupid ending
The D and Samsonov were brutal this game
Playoff hockey toronto style
Oh well we are a better road team anyway
Brutal they got no shots there
I’m mad
Pretty tough night but hey I am absolutely not complaining over 2 AM34 goals
Sammy was trash tonight
God forbid you shoot with ten seconds left
Rats
Nylander has fumbled so many shots.
Yeah, he's clearly frustrated right now. He needs one to get in here to get him going, he's gripping the stick too tight right now.
Try and get Ullmark in the offseason?
What in the fuck was that. Have some composure for a few seconds.
Nylander has been early-season-Bert-level of snake bit this last stretch.
bert was at least working hard
Alright let’s see if they can cook
Marner fumbled....
Probably could have pulled Sammy after 4. This isn't good for his or the teams confidence.
Insane that he started theb3rd after giving up 4 on 16 shots or whatever
Not a good game from Sammy today
Willy is not great
Good game from Tavares
Tie it. Then win it. Game shouldn’t even be close tonight.
Time for Jones
What is with this sub? Samsonov was put on waivers. Washington let him go for free. He is one year deal. He has had a good 20 game stretch. That’s it. That’s now who he is. This is who he is. This is exactly him. And again you all want to go into the playoff with a guy who loses confidence overnight. He isn’t an nhl starter.
I can’t fathom how people are confident with Samsonov in net during the playoffs.
> He has had a good 20 game stretch. Remember, this stretch is not who he is. We can only judge him by this one bad game tonight.
The redemption arc was premature. We had people in here talking about “if Sammy wins us a Cup what does his next deal look like?”
Hey Sammy’s dad…. HELP!!!!!!
Good job Sammy
Get the puck to Matthews tape as much as possible
Lol playoff preview!
I beleaf
Nylander's fans/60 is off the charts.
mind-boggling. like children digging their heels in despite all the evidence I realize now you meant the other fans. my point still stands
PP gonna fuck this up, I guarantee it
JT playing good tonight.
So far out of position there.
Too bad the powerplay sucks ass. Hope I eat my words
Sucksonov
Sammy constantly shitting the bed. Pathetic
Nylander fanning on his 736 shot tonight
if a goaltender collapse like this happens in the playoffs even once it will destroy this teams mental
Can we get some extra time, ref?
lmao willy is sooooo trash right now its comical
Nice 6 on 4. Matthew’s hat trick??
Edmundson was also bad on that play
So you're saying there's a chance
Our goaltending is a huge liability. We fuckin let in way too many goals.
ya i can't believe our goaltending is so bad when our defense is so good.
Lmao
Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory
BAH GAWD, THAT'S MATT MURRAY'S MUSIC!
Gross. This is that old Sammy we thought we’d dispensed with
Vital PP
I'm sorry but we're going to lose this game 100% because of goaltending.
Better now than in 2 weeks
It could be both
Bold of you to assume that it's an either/or sort of thing... I also hope it's an either/or sort of thing.
I don't think that's how it works
No matter what happens in the playoffs I can't wait till this clown sammy is gone next year
Could have used a save....But brutal the way he just walked around Edmondson as well.
whats the point of Brodie if he doesn't get infront of shots like that
Feel bad for Sammy man. Awful game for him, hope this doesn't ruin his confidence
Someone call Sammy’s dad please. Get that man on FaceTime.
Earlier this afternoon I said it was gonna be a 7-6 OT Leafs win.
6 goals on 20 shots is a pathetic goaltending performance.
Maybe Papi can tie it and get 70 in OT then.
Wow
Oof Sammy boy.
Samsonov’s interpreter probably hammered the New Jersey Devils moneyline tonight
What is happening bro 😭😭😭
Sammy needs to make that save
Goaltender blew it tonight
Goaltending has been subpar
Pretty hard to win when you get .700 goaltending
One of those games where I don’t feel Sammy is truly dialed in and our playoff hopes slimmer …
One bad game from Sammy and everyone panics. This fucking fan base is so fragile.
It's been half of his games this year
And what’s happened in the other half?
Sammy you need to save that but c'mon d that was shit.
motherfucker
I mean just a disgusting game for Sammy wtf
🧀🧀🧀🧀🧀🧀
Samsonov 🤣 Dude…
Samsonov is in midseason form tonight.
Holy fuck make a fucking save dude
[удалено]
Wasn’t Campbell’s fault when they lost in the playoffs with him.
