Leafs' historic vulnerability to Nick Cousins might be the difference his series.

Personally I think the Leafs should not simply throw the puck away and then sort of glide listslessly around waiting for the Panthers to gain the zone effortlessly.

Is John Tavares supposed to be like, all star good? I feel like every time I’ve seen him in the last month he gets the puck in hand he sucks and every time he gets like a chance to tap in or rebound for someone else he’s decent.

He's Dave Andreychuk with better vision.

Are you new to this?

Anyway sweet gneiss Knies goal but I can't let go of Liljegren falling on his rear end after standing perfectly still with nobody around him. How.

Leafs with a sizeable lead on style points and hitz. Time to cash those in.

Rielly-Schenn looked like garbage the minute they were put together but Keefe stuck with them until they started playing well (luckily the start of the playoffs)

McCabe-Brodie also struggled from the get go and they're still bad.

Truly a land of contrasts.

Jarvis beat Graves out behind the woodshed but was nice enough to bury him afterwards.

Aho probably got tripped when the Canes were busy throwing godawful shots from the point but oh well. Good period.

luke schenn was the missing piece

Dubas finally hit on the most inexplicably successful deadline acquisition of a talentless lumbering behemoth defenseman yet.

Anyway this is exactly the hot start to the game everyone expected, Keefe's speech must have been fire.

It was a brilliant post and I take no responsibility for Tavares and Giordano checking out on the play.

Broadcast spent a lot of time blaming Lilly when Tavares had the passer until he inexplicably blew a tire behind his net

But that was Giordano's side?

Anyway yeah real cool that Bennett just got to chokeslam Knies with the puck nowhere near because the refs weren't watching.

You could argue that Nylander got hooked. But personally I feel like skaters should skate and not flail around uselessly.

That was the Panthers 4th line, I don't think they can just store him in one of those nuclear waste bunkers.

Follow through exemptions are supposed to be for shooting motions and refs regularly and arbitrarily choose whether defenders clearing it from their own end qualify or not.

how did you end up a Canes/Leaf fan anyway? backup team after years of disappointment? live in NC? masochist?

I was young and naive and impressed by rookie Erik Cole against the Leafs (who were good enough that I didn't need a backup team). I'll never let that happen again.

T-Bone posted:

It was a soft crosscheck, no doubt, but also I've seen it called and not called, especially on the lower back. I'm going full homer tonight here though, boys need a dub. gently caress the Canes, ruining hockey, etc (and I've got an $800 payout if they win the Cup but still gently caress em).

I mean I definitely think they should call every crosscheck but I can't imagine such a future coming to pass.

Why was Fred still in the net?

Oh I see Pesce had like the third unfortunate halfassed defensive tip leading to a goal against.

Is it good to score in your first shot on goal?

Two would have been better than the ping. Be more like Lafferty, Auston.

Also have a strong feeling that Holl/Gustafsson have at least one hilarious play in them each.

Mitch should probably stop playing so stupid (also whoever he passed it to who just threw the puck away to the Panther at the point under no pressure).
