Laffs got one back by sheer compete level, Boston looked off but the laffs took it to them OK!!!! Quick, shut down this thread!!! I've seen it all!!!!! I can die a happy man. Whew!!!!!!

LostAnotherOne Posted April 20, 2018 Report Posted April 20, 2018 I love my leafs but winning 2 of 3 games in Boston especially the slaughtering they gave them games 1 and 2 is a hard hill to climb.

dintymoore Posted April 20, 2018 Report Posted April 20, 2018 The better team won. Chara is a beast. The Leaf defense still sucks, and they'll never win a series until it's addressed.

Hes slow but his reach lets him get away with that missing step. If not for that span he would be done..
moxie Posted April 20, 2018 Report Posted April 20, 2018 Dont think hes the man for the job. Besides, does Lou even know where he is ?

I really thought the Leafs were the better team until those 2 on 1 goals were scored. Rask was the difference. As a Leaf fan it's not about winning the cup now. It's about incremental improvement. I'd like to see them win in Boston with Kadri. Drop Moore....and keep Plec on the top line.
BillM Posted April 20, 2018 Report Posted April 20, 2018 Can't blame all this on the D. Where are the superstars? Matthews? Nylander? How many points have those guys put on the board? lol

Both Torontos for coughing it up and Bostons Team Defence for closing down the neutral zone and collapsing like well built, gritty playoff team should. . And the kids stopped hitting last night. Ya aint gonna make or find room if the opposition isnt afraid to stand there.
AKRISONER Posted April 20, 2018 Report Posted April 20, 2018 leafs played the better game and rask stole it...just like good goalies do sometimes. Kudos to him, he put up a hell of a performance. Leafs needed a game like that in game 1-2 of this series. Take it away and learn. I hope this is all a learning experience for AM...dude was invisible last night with bergeron out. Hes gotta elevate his game and learn how to do it.
Acountdeleted Posted April 20, 2018 Report Posted April 20, 2018 Just sucks, the series back in 2014 against the Bruins was entertaining, the series last year against Washington was entertaining. I've been finding this series more frustrating then anything. Last 2 games have been watchable but it won't be going to 7. I love the leafs but realistically this ends in 5.
moxie Posted April 20, 2018 Report Posted April 20, 2018 (edited) Isnt this year 2 of a projected 5 year rebuild ? What did you "leaf nation" Numpties expect? Take a 420 break and chill out. Or not. Edited April 20, 2018 by moxie
