Ginette Reno posted:I mean they turned that game into a 2-1 coin flip. If every game is gonna be that grindy that might be able to bullshit out a few wins. Hard to see them stringing together four that way though Really? I thought they absolutely wilted when the canes took the lead and never came back into it I know it's only game one but that's gonna be a drat tough match-up for'em I think, unless someone like Anders Lee decides to play like he's 5 years younger

they've been pulling this same stupid move for years now come the playoffs "that means it's time to be more physical" and suddenly they're chasing hits and physicality instead of just playing the game

Swayman is a goddamned joy to watch as a neutral observer I just love a goalie when they've got that unflappable swagger like "I'm just gonna stand here take your best shot"

even if they weren't gifting the bruins power play after power play, the defense and goaltending is just not good enough

The same thing keeps happening even after you changed the GM and shuffled some bodies either you fire the coach or you get rid of one of the big boys what's it gonna, you reckon

Nairbo posted:Tavares sucks lol that may be true but I think the result was a team effort tonight that is an entirely different team from what I saw of the regular season Leafs and that comes entirely down to coaching/in the room jitters kinda stuff and they're not kids anymore... they need to shake that poo poo off (and fire Keefe immediately)

I will say to say something nice for the Avs, I completely thought that Lehkonen contract was gonna be a huge overpay for a bottom-6 forward but he seems to have been worth the money, maybe even underpaid as things go

Koopa Kid posted:This is basically the losing scenario for the Leafs in this series, outchance Boston early but don’t build a cushion because of goaltending, then Samsonov gives up something easy and the team freaks out He let in a softie but the defense also completely abandoned him so it's not entirely his fault

Koopa Kid posted:Games ebb and flow, but if you’re playing better than the other team for the majority of the game you need more than a goal from it. Boston was always going to have some fight and the Leafs aren’t built to win 1-0 I still think you can see where they're going wrong in this one simple image  One team is playing physical hockey and the other team is just playing physical and kinda forgot that the goal is to score goals and not just bodycheck

Koopa Kid posted:I know you’re being cute but there’s no actual argument watching that game and looking at the chance count that the Leafs gave up on scoring chances because they were focused on being physical I am absolutely suggesting that every post-season they abandon the style of play that makes them successful in the regular season for the sake of chasing some vision of what they consider playoff hockey to be one game it's an aberration but years in a row you can tell it's just a thing that the room believes and it's never going to work for this team no matter how many Bertuzzis or Reaveses they add

I'm very annoyed at the caps pulling off their incredible end of season push only to end up looking like a particularly large juniors team against the rangers and almost certainly ending up swept
