    I can hear the Leafs gagging all the way out here on the West Coast.

    In spectacular fashion
    Two power play goals
    The second on a 5-on-3
    Toronto challenged for goalie interference
    It wasn’t
    Then Marner sends a clearing pass over the boards
    But Spezza scores to make it 2-1 and Brodie ties it with a deflection off Petry’s skate
    Going to OT

    Kotkaniemi wins it
    We have a Game 7 and Leafs fans are shitting bricks, especially since Toronto dominated OT

    Another gift-wrapped OT winner off a Leafs' turnover in their own zone.

    Has there been any explanation why Vegas changed goalies?

    Speculation seems to be to rest Flower.

    Guessing that didn't work out as planned.

    Oh, I'm sure he's well rested.
    He'll also be down 0-1 and better not have a bad game.

    Perplexing move.

    I get rescinding a double minor if a stick doesn’t make contact, but they can’t turn it into a major for a blow to the head as the principal point of contact?


    Edit: I’ll come down in a few minutes and be more reasonable soon and hear reason. Before people start doing their thing to a reactionary post.

    Not sure what to think in Vegas.

    On one hand, Marc-Andre Fleury is clearly having the kind of season that will finally earn him a Vezina Trophy and he has played at a No. 1 goalie level.

    On the other hand, if there is a goaltender out there who you're not terribly concerned about overriding or overreacting, it's Fleury. Additionally, Robin Lehner is not exactly chopped liver.
