Twitter reacts to dry Maple Leafs, Hurricanes game

The Carolina Hurricanes slowly crawled past the Toronto Maple Leafs 1-0 in an uneventful overtime contest Thursday.

The game resembled nap time at a preschool rather than an electric display of fast-paced athleticism, and many in attendance and watching at home made it clear how they felt about the rather unremarkable display.

I've seen a lot of Leafs games in my day but zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

More tweets from me than scoring chances in this game. #Leafs 0, #Canes 0. Sorry if I'm overdoing it.

I truly need something to happen. #Leafs 0, #Canes 0. 9:45 to go in third period. Anything really. Anything.

The Maple Leafs have now dropped six of their last seven games, while the Hurricanes moved to within three points of the final wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference with their fifth win in seven games.
