Let’s face it, we were all worried the Leafs would outshoot the Ducks 80-2 and still lose 1-0 in a shootout or something. Instead, [the Leafs curb stomped Randy Carlyle’s Ducks 6-1](https://www.pensionplanpuppets.com/toronto-maple-leafs-game-recap-maple-leafs-highlights-jake-muzzin-first-leafs-goal-andreas-johnsson/). Gibson was pulled after letting in 5+ goals for the third straight game, and it seems like he was none to happy about it. > John Gibson went straight down the tunnel after getting pulled and still hasn't returned to the Ducks bench about 10 minutes later. > > — Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) [February 5, 2019](https://twitter.com/reporterchris/status/1092610885829513216?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref=pensionplanpuppets.com) They’ve been on a horrific losing slump of late, and when the one good thing they’ve had going for them (John Gibson) is starting to do poorly and be pissed off. They’ve gone from pretty solidly in a playoff spot to 3rd last in the conference (albeit three points out of the final wild card spot). That’s a bad recipe for staying employed. Thanks Jake Muzzin! He had himself a game. He took out Perry with a big hit, which will always warm the fires of my vengeful heart. He had three points, he scored a powerplay goal after drawing a penalty and it led to this masterpiece. > Randy was rather upset after that Muzzin goal.
