I wonder if Giordano will ever draw back into the lineup or if he's played his last hockey game. I feel for the guy doing a team-friendly win-a-ring deal and choosing the leafs but I don't know enough about other orgs to know if he'd be higher on any other "competitor"'s depth chart

I saw someone tweet that the Leafiest thing to do would be to win without Matthews and then lose the series when he comes back, which seems accurate

We can thread the needle perfectly with "Leafs best Boston without Matthews and promptly get swept by Florida when he returns".

There was only one way that Toronto was going to win game 5, and that was it - allow fewer than 2 goals. The Maple Leafs are going to have to do that again on Thursday.

He'd probably be a passenger no matter what. If you can't make the Leafs starting 6 you're not making it anywhere else that's even a pretender. Also not sure how unexpected his dad's passing was earlier in the year, but it could have been a Toronto or nothing situation if being close by was a priority.

I feel for Gio and Brodie because life’s been giving them a rough go lately and they don’t even really have playing to turn to anymore, but you never get to time your swan song and neither has anything left in the tank

sooo anyone else tuning in to see what Rick Bowness says in the post-series interview?

Exact same thing as happened last year.. won game 1 and then got steamrolled. He's too old to deal with this bullshit.

I'm am flabbergasted by Bowness' decision to revert back to the same lines they lost 3 games in a row with in the 3rd period. They played well in the first 2 periods. They put up 19 shots in the second period! Apart from some bad pionk plays they could have had the lead. And Bowness saw that and decided to go back to the lines that gave up 40 plus shots a game for the 3rd period. What the gently caress.

They had a terrible power play and penalty kill all year. Fix that poo poo at some point. That is fully on the coaches, when the team can defend and score well at 5v5

Both teams eliminated lost 6-3, and lost the series 4-1. Both teams that survived elimination won 2-1 and brought the series to 3-2.

Obviously Demko being out is what will really limit the Canucks run, but failing to get Petey a winger who can score is a close second. He’s clearly not his best, but opponents can just defend him (which top of his game Petey could still score) because there just is no other finish to defend against. Hoglander is there for scrappy goals and puck retrievals, but he’s not creating much himself. Mikayev might as well be Loui at this point, he’s just a complete non factor and couldn’t hit a barn door.

Other three lines and D pairs are all doing their job, but Peteys line is a complete black hole.

Also yeah I don’t know why that wasn’t worth a challenge, it wasn’t like the Preds PP was schredding them (other than that play)
