i need a jersey...
BEN SCRIVENS BABY! He was amazing, enough said. Seriously, he had his second straight shut-out against Florida's Panthers! That has to get him some more recognition. Of course it is a group effort, considering the players did their best to stay clear of the puck's view, so that Scrivens could get a good view on it. And in the last game, one of the player managed to block the puck from going past the goalie line when Scrivens let it slip past him. Scriven's wasn't afraid to communicate with his team-mates, yelling out "Time! Time!", letting his team-mate know he doesn't have to rush, a quality I find is lacking, generally in hockey :\ Scrivens did well, and I hope he continues to do so in the future. As for Reimer, he's still injured, and so is Matt Frattin :( I hope they all recover soon and manage to have more game time.
But one thing that one of the sport's reporters said did give me a different perspective. The Leaf's did seem a little sloppy in the beginning. They seemed to depend a lot on their goal-tender (Scrivens) and that shouldn't be how the team performs. Never the less they demonstrated a stronger team, than last night's game, and scored 3-0. Well all in all I'm proud of them , hope they continue to improve, and work hard. There's another game tomorrow! I just hope the Leaf's won't be too exhausted or sore from today :)
