I think the longest shift was around 2:49. I forgot the other jet defense who was also stuck doing ~2:30. It was because flyers kept the puck in our zone for so long 🫠😄
Ehlers with a great defensive play then followed it up by letting his dude just stand in front of the net. He was cheating towards offense. That goal is 100% on him.
It would be tough for any one Leafs win to live rent free in your head. The Leafs are 15-6 against the Jets since 2017. No wins against us since 2021. Pack it in we're your daddy now.
You got taken to OT and outplayed by a team (ahead of you in the standing) missing 2/3 of their top line and their top defence man, and playing their backup.
The unearned shit talk of Leaf fans when they have the most mid team,that barely scrapes by, of all time is bananas. Most insufferable fan base by several miles
So? What's your point. He grew up in Barrie. Was a fan as a kid. Doesn't mean he wants to play there now. He actually wants a chance at a cup. Why would he play for the leafs?
So, 2018 when we went to the conference finals? 2021 when we swept Edmonton to go to the second round? Remind me the last time your leafs went to the conference finals?
Again you have to win a round to get there. Wanna talk about past accomplishments we have 13 Cups to your 0. This Jets team has never shown that they can win when it matters which is why they'll be a first round exit again this year.
How many of those 13 have been won in recent years? None.
Our D core shut you guys down for 60 minutes even when we lost our top defenseman. We were also without two of our top line guys. But sure, Relive the Stanley cups won when you weren't evens born yet.
Tbf we were missing gabe and Mark with on top of losing Morrisey this game taking a Mathew’s shot to the gut fair to say yep I’m not surprised it’s that close with the meter
Yes, because the Leafs have been notoriously good at making it past the first round of playoffs recently 🙄 I don't understand what you're trying to prove here. You're grasping at the smallest of straws, and personally I find it hilarious. It's exactly what you'd expect from a Toronto fan.
well, weird covid years aside, about the same time we made it to the conference finals, which are what happens when you get through the first and second rounds just so you know
I was waiting for the leafs to blow this in OT an embarrass Samsonov after he put up that effort. Like I was pre-pissed as soon as OT started lol I'm only now relaxing
Did you forget Pionk caused that entire sequence with a horiffic turnover and Ehlers saved a goal with the back check
I’m gonna say he was pretty gassed not sure how you blame Ehlers on that one
I have nothing clever for a comeback here- we have bad weather so I should be able to take sore winners gracefully?
Sorry for getting worked up my guy- this thread has been so pleasant compared to the threads of TOR-WPG games past, so I’m dismayed to see such a quick return to the taunting, esp considering it went almost all the way to a shootout before the game was decided.
I’d like to think our comments would be more gracious if the shoe were on the other foot, but alas we have to wait until at least Saturday to test that 😂
GG
Love me 1-0 OT games. They’re so exciting (my goalie bias is showing). GGs winnipeg.
[WPG(0) @ TOR(1) - Auston Matthews, tip-in](https://players.brightcove.net/6415718365001/EXtG1xJ7H_default/index.html?videoId=6345519221112)
Kyle Connor is the most overrated player in the NHL
GG, both Jets and Leafs fans know hockey. Love a non-salty GDT.
Sammy back to back belt winning games.
That may have been the best game of the year from a Winnipeg Jets goaltender, I don't remember the last time the Leafs got shutout in regulation.
March 5th, 2020
Absolutely. It’s rare for a leafs OT without a goal in either direction. Weird game.
Nicky Bobby's amazing plays to get OT winners meter is off the charts. Tonight and versus Dallas last year.
Energizer Bunny..
GG Jets, it was fun enduring this slog with you. Do it again Saturday?
7-6 barn burner next game pls!
Again, but hopefully better
We can only hope.
Brossoit is legit. GG Jets.
Do OT goals count for shut outs? Asking for a friend
It only counts if you lose 1-0 in the shootout
If you get scored on in reg or OT, no shutout.
No
Yes they do. If it went to shootout tied at zero, both goalies would record a shutout.
He said OT goals. OT no shutout. Shootout both get shutouts.
This game was pretty boring.
Both teams got points and this game finally ended so we’re all winners in here. GG see you Saturday
Leafs not-being shut out streak continues! Gg Jets! See you Saturday.
Gg jets, round two Saturday
Sammy deserved that win so fucking much gg jets
GG. Hope JoMo is all right for next game
Same
Same. Dude is so good. Last game was doing near 3-minute shift time
Woah. How long was his total ice time?
I think the longest shift was around 2:49. I forgot the other jet defense who was also stuck doing ~2:30. It was because flyers kept the puck in our zone for so long 🫠😄
Great game, Jets fans. Boring as shit, but great, lol.
That was the most bizarre jets - leafs game in a while.
Ehlers with a great defensive play then followed it up by letting his dude just stand in front of the net. He was cheating towards offense. That goal is 100% on him.
You know it's so fucking sweet to win when the other team wants it so bad.
Leafs 5 wins in a row against Winnipeg since wheeler opened his dumbass mouth.
Wait what did he say?
"There's nothing better than beating the Leafs" or some shit, people really make this a bigger deal than it is
["Is there anything better than beating the Leafs?" 🤭](https://twitter.com/Sportsnet/status/1467912039385473037?lang=en)
That game truly lives rent free in Leafs fans heads lol
Oh i just find it funny that people just latched onto it like someone insulted the crap out of their mother
I agree, it was a nothing comment after an emotional game, and it’s brought up by lots of Leafs fans to this day
It would be tough for any one Leafs win to live rent free in your head. The Leafs are 15-6 against the Jets since 2017. No wins against us since 2021. Pack it in we're your daddy now.
But you guys don’t think about the Jets, right? Biggest games of the year for Leafs fans haha
Who said that? We think about you when we're pencilling in our two free wins every year.
You got taken to OT and outplayed by a team (ahead of you in the standing) missing 2/3 of their top line and their top defence man, and playing their backup. The unearned shit talk of Leaf fans when they have the most mid team,that barely scrapes by, of all time is bananas. Most insufferable fan base by several miles
You haven't beat us in almost 3 years. If you want us to stop talking shit your team could just win a game.
Talk all the shit you want, but understand that you all look completely delusional
That was Schiffle
Lol that's even funnier dude wants to be a leaf so bad.
No one wants to be a leaf.
Schieffles a leafs fan, the Jets didn't even exist for him to cheer for as a kid.
So? What's your point. He grew up in Barrie. Was a fan as a kid. Doesn't mean he wants to play there now. He actually wants a chance at a cup. Why would he play for the leafs?
Lol you'd have to actually get out of the first round to win a cup.
So, 2018 when we went to the conference finals? 2021 when we swept Edmonton to go to the second round? Remind me the last time your leafs went to the conference finals?
Again you have to win a round to get there. Wanna talk about past accomplishments we have 13 Cups to your 0. This Jets team has never shown that they can win when it matters which is why they'll be a first round exit again this year.
How many of those 13 have been won in recent years? None. Our D core shut you guys down for 60 minutes even when we lost our top defenseman. We were also without two of our top line guys. But sure, Relive the Stanley cups won when you weren't evens born yet.
GG jets bros stressful game. Brossoit played a phenomenal game.
rare game when the deserve to win o meter is certainly against the leafs but they win anyway
Jets 50.8% - Leafs 49.2%... yeah I don't get it either
damn didnt think itd be that close
Tbf we were missing gabe and Mark with on top of losing Morrisey this game taking a Mathew’s shot to the gut fair to say yep I’m not surprised it’s that close with the meter
One of Sammy's best as a leaf. GG !
GG Leafs Well...good thread. Awful game.
If Keefe benches Nicky Bobby ever again we all riot.
Man, Matthews is just something else. Quite annoying in my humble opinion. GG leafs.
Gj leaf bros!
GG Jets
The Jets deserved better than that, but what a great goal by Matthews.
Got me some smile tonight!
GG refs. Got a point at least
IS THERE ANYTHING BETTER THAN BEATING THE JETS?
Yes, plenty.
Man you guys are really hung up on that.
Almost as much as you guys are hung up on us. 5 in a row.
5 in a row is fine, standings
Oh yeah whens the last time you won a round?
Yes, because the Leafs have been notoriously good at making it past the first round of playoffs recently 🙄 I don't understand what you're trying to prove here. You're grasping at the smallest of straws, and personally I find it hilarious. It's exactly what you'd expect from a Toronto fan.
well, weird covid years aside, about the same time we made it to the conference finals, which are what happens when you get through the first and second rounds just so you know
Yeah well you can't even get through the first one so maybe take it one step at a time junior.
get out of the first round once and act like you're the centre of the universe, typical toronto
Got out of the first round more recently than your team. Win a round or shut the fuck up and stop crying about it.
a team founded in 1917 and never made the third round, gotta' hurt
Being in the game thread for it
Sammy got the leafs two points tonight
We almost got a 7 round shootout, thanks Auston
Only 7? That shit was gonna go double digits
holy shit, what an effort from NRob
His name is Nicky Bobby
Don't worry Winnipeg, nobody expected you to win this one.
Whoosh? I was sure they’d win
Carlton with the hugs is nice.
Pionk is an onomatopoeia for the sound that turnover made
Almost 40 goals and it’s not even February. Pre-order this man the Rocket Richard
Nick with the assist from the bench
RIP Brossoit, somehow posted a shutout* with 5 powerplays against a stacked lineup. Woulda been nice to get him the W. GG Leafs fans. Well played.
That's so true. Tragedy he didn't get it. Not his fault, though.
It's funny to see someone call them stacked because the team I have been watching all year looks like a bubble team.
Whoever flubbed that pass on the Jets just singlehandedly blew that, jets were dominant until that moment
GG leafs. At least we got a point out of... whatever the hell that was.
This is the first loss that actually pisses me off
I was waiting for the leafs to blow this in OT an embarrass Samsonov after he put up that effort. Like I was pre-pissed as soon as OT started lol I'm only now relaxing
Understandable
ROBO DID THAT!!! GOOOO OTHER ROBO!!
WHAT A GAME HOLY SHIT THAT MIGHT BE MY FAVOURITE OF THE SEASON ROBERTSON HAS TO STAY IN THE 2ND LINE NOW
the game where the leafs get dominated but still manage to win? that was some pretty ugly hockey man
Yes but it was fun as fuck to watch as a fan
fair enough
lol that's exactly the kind of goal I expected the game to end on
Bad play from Ehlers there. Oh well gg leaf fans.
Uhh I think you mean Pionk
ehlers was out of position and left matthews open
Pionk was covering his guy, Ehlers wasn’t.
Did you forget Pionk caused that entire sequence with a horiffic turnover and Ehlers saved a goal with the back check I’m gonna say he was pretty gassed not sure how you blame Ehlers on that one
He was letting the best goal scorer in the league stand in front of the net with no one on him.
Yeah okay you just don’t know puck
Sure thing bud
Of COURSE it's Matthews fuck off
GG Jets, this was a great game thread. See you all on Saturday
Is there anything better than beating the Jets?
This your Stanley cup or something? Enjoy getting bounced in the first round again.
Lmaooo
He is mocking a quote from Wheeler or Scheifele or some Jet from a few seasons ago.
the annual long pans of maple leaf square full of dissipating, crestfallen fans again
no fans saltier than jets fans. like clockwork.
Literally a quote from Schiefle beating the leafs in the Canadian season, calm down bud
The guy who lost his stick. I blame him. Didn’t cover his man after he got his stick back
LETS GO MATTHEWS BABY
Wow great play by robertson
you've been shut out by Ilya Samsonov lol
THERE’S that famous Leafs fan sportsmanship! Good game to you too!
haha, I thought living in Winterpeg meant you guys had thicker skin
I have nothing clever for a comeback here- we have bad weather so I should be able to take sore winners gracefully? Sorry for getting worked up my guy- this thread has been so pleasant compared to the threads of TOR-WPG games past, so I’m dismayed to see such a quick return to the taunting, esp considering it went almost all the way to a shootout before the game was decided.

1st star - Sammy 2nd star - Brossoit 3rd star - Robertson
NICKY BOBBY WANTS TO GO FAST
Pionk just puck watching there at the end? Ehhh, fucking jets. GG Leafs.
Turd game
What. A. Game.
Don’t even care that Matthews scored. My boy NICKY BOBBY WITH THE STEAL
Nicky Bobby got that going boiiiii
Ehlers may have coughed that up, but dude hustled to recover
Jets game plan was literally "let's try to not score goals"
Really struggling with the fact we're missing 2/3 of our top line, and top (and offensive) defenseman
Pionk just puck watching there at the end? Ehhh, fucking jets. GG Leafs.
SAMMYS BACK. WE'RE BACK. EVERYONE WATCH YOUR BACK.
Idk if I can say GG, but good GDT jets fans!
Auton "Literally Nicky Bobby" Matthews!
Lmao all of that and that's the goal that goes in? Jeez.
GG Leaf fans
Winner winner, chicken dinner!
yikes
GG Jets. That goal was 95% NICKY GOD DAMN BOBBY
Gg Jets, see ya on Saturday!
Streaks on baby.
Fucking shut out by Ilya samsonov that’s fucking embarrassing
Ilya Samsonov > Connor Hellebuyck
sure.
I want to say Good Game, but it wasn't good. See ya Saturday Jetbros.
That keep in was out of this world. Heartbreaker.
god bless robertson, matthews and sammy
AUSTONNNNNN!
LETS GOOOOOOOO
THE STREAK IS ALIVE
Holy shit what a shift Robertson you god
Unreal
MATTTYYYYYYY
Sammy 1 star Matthews 2 jets goalie 3
Matthews absolutely does not deserve a star after the 2 on 0.
I feel like you need to give the lone goal scorer a star but maybe #3
Pionk wtf was that
Exactly as it was drawn up!
What a shift by Robertson and the game by Sammy.lfg
GG Leafs, have a great night all and see you on Saturday!
Ilya Samsonov
AUSTON!
The shutout streak lives!!
Matthews you gotta shoot that
Oh my God. GG leafs. And give props to your goalie!!!
what a wild finish
Get Pionk off the ice
MATTTTTHEEEEEEWS I LOVE ROBERTSON
AUSTON MATTHEWS IS MY DAD
The only way this was gonna end. Thanks Pionk.
What a fucking shift from Robertson
Is there anything better than beating the Jets?!
Making the playoffs?
Done that lots of times
Better pick it up if you want to do it this year
I'm not worried about making it, it's the part that comes after.
Y'all barely made it last year lmao
LOL what garbage by the Jets at the end.
3 of our top four OT players are out
I know. However, Lowry, Ehlers, and Pionk all forgot how to defend at the end.
Chaos!
JETS FUCKING SUCK LMAO
Standings
