drumnj 459 Report post Posted May 22, 2013 I know this isn't the right section, but no one bothers to look in the Griffins sub-forum. Hopefully it can stay here for a bit. Griffins close out the series against the Marlies with a 3 goal come from behind in the 3rd period. Within 5 minutes Griffins get goals from 3 different players winning the game 4-3. Tatar notched himself 2 more this game, bringing his playoff total to 8 and 11 points overall in 11 games. Griffins have been pretty impressive so far these playoffs. Should be some good experience for those that will be up with the Wings next season. As we have found young players really grow during playoffs when everything is on the line. 4 evilmrt, Hockeymom1960, hooon and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GMRwings1983 8,789 Report post Posted May 22, 2013 I remember someone saying that if they're eliminated from the playoffs, that means Tatar can somehow return to the NHL. Not sure if that's correct. I wish them luck, but at the same time, would rather have Tatar back than wish them luck. He'd make us even better. Tatar needs to be a Red Wing. Fixed.

Travis 576 Report post Posted May 22, 2013 Just posted in the sub forum about this. Great win for these guys. They've played well all season and thrived under Blashill. I hope I can make it to one of the WCF games because they're playing great hockey right now. Closing out a tough Toronto team (that, as an aside, features Komisarek and Tim Connolly) in their house could not have been an easy task, let alone to do so in the fashion they did. They closed out the last round with a statement game and appear to have done the same here. Hopefully the Barons are over-rested, it'd be great for the Griffins to get a jump on them right away.

Jimmy's stickwork still blows...lol I remember someone saying that if they're eliminated from the playoffs, that means Tatar can somehow return to the NHL. Not sure if that's correct. I wish them luck, but at the same time, would rather have Tatar back than wish them luck. He'd make us even better. Fixed. I don't think it matters, didn't Lashoff go back and forth to GR during the playoffs already? I think it's more about keeping Tatar in a spot where he can lead the entire team through the AHL playoffs. Its not just about him, he's allowing the entire team to have a deep playoff run, furthering development. 2 Hockeymom1960 and T.Low reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T.Low 1,011 Report post Posted May 22, 2013 (edited) Yep. I watched the 3rd period. Like father, like son; the Marlies game up three goals in less than six minutes to lose this one. From Leafs HFBoards: Originally Posted by Mess Sadly Marlies were leading 3-1 midway through the 3rd and then gave up 3 goals in the last 10 minutes including 2 goals in less than 30 seconds apart to lose 4-3. So Marlies season paralleled the Leafs in its finish. I want to die again. This team This farm team This whole organization top to bottom I don't, I can't. Ouch, man. There's more good news found within the Donner Party than in Leafs Nation. Edited May 22, 2013 by T.Low Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Z Winged Dangler 2,082 Report post Posted May 22, 2013 Yup. Bertuzzi and Samuelsson need to pack. And Cleary and White. Time to bring up the overripe kiddos. Tatar is NHL ready and then some, just like our boy Goose who's been a blessing on our 3rd line when he's a top 6 player. Griffins signed Anathasiou to an ATO also...hope he gets in the lineup That dude's stupid fast going by the draft videos we saw. If he can get his hands to catch up to his feet he could be a lot like a Bure/Gaborik type. Maybe not as good, but one can hope. Good news to hear he signed with GR. I'll be watching his development with great interest. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
