I see nothing out of the Leafs showing game 7 is likely, they’ll have to change that soon. 

You're probably right, but I've seen stranger things.  It's not over till the...  How am I allowed to say this these days... rather large woman sings.

Yes, clearly. You're welcome. No, you may not, coconuts don't wear rings. 

Perhaps he could kiss your coconuts instead

What is the narrative from Hog Town execs, who control sports media in Canada, if the Leafs keep getting bitch slapped and go out in four?

Nah, brah.  Not my cup of tea.  Besides, I wouldn't want to be his first.  Save that for someone special.

So whoever wins game 1 is destined to win and not see a Game 7.  Got it.  Thank you, all well knowing (although stats argue otherwise) highness.  I kneel to you.  I am not worthy.  May I kiss your ring???

It's a bad sign when you let in 4 goals on 20 shots. Toronto is getting very little offensive pressure, and seems weak defensively.

That's going to need one heck of adjustment if they want to split the series.

Can't argue that.  Fair point.

Marner needs to get going. Too perimeter. Like he’s scared.

They're going to need 6 NHL defencemen and an NHL goalie.  Currently, they have none of the above.

Edit: I hate auto-correct sometimes, and my new phone doesn't seem to be as smart as my old one as far as that goes.

Can't tune in this game. Are leafs just unlucky or Boston continue to be their kryptonite?

[canuck73_3]

Oh here comes the Nylander excuses 

[24K]

I may have overestimated the Leafs.

Hard to believe the penalties are 4-1 for the Leafs against a goon squad.  Interesting.  

 

The Bruins have the playoff experience to know its a different game once the puck drops. They've learned how to use discipline as a weapon against idiot teams like the Leafs.  Of course their captain leads the way to know when to exact retribution.

Spoken like a true prodigy.  Didn't see it from that angle.  Good observation.

Not unlucky, just intimidated and have AHL trash on their blueline and between the pipes.  Any actual NHL quality team would be steamrolling the Leafs.

Leafs radio blaming Samsonov. 

[Hugh_Jasoule]

Hopefully the Laughs at least get a goal or 2.  Last they need is to get shutout to destroy confidence and boost up confidence for Swayman who is already playing beast mode. Again, only reason is for 7 games to wear down whichever of these chud teams win.
