Willy?  He was clutch against Tampa last year.  He and Rielly got them through that round.

 

 

Actually Boston has a pretty brutal recent history of epic chokes and collapses in the playoffs.  They typically only beat teams who choke harder (eg. us, the Leafs). 

If you ignore 2011, their history since 1972 has been pretty much heartbreaks and epic chokes and collapses.

I've seen a few posters mentioning how quiet the Leafs fans are- but I can't blame the fans.

How many times would we watch the team make the play offs, then get bounced, time after time; before Rogers Arena does the same?

[Gurn]

Also - a big nod of recognition to Brad Marchand.

That little rat is a damn good hockey player. HOF, first ballot guy.

Success is relative 

 

Go back a year or two and most folks would be content just making the dance

Joe Bowen is just a treat to listen to on radio on 590 Sportsnet.

 

I may not like the Leafs, but Joe Bowen is awesome. I wish the video and the audio would sync.

Nice pass (to the wrong team) Reaves. 
Did he actually blow snow on that? Keefe has to sit that guy. What a friggin’ chicken sh*t play.

He might be the worst player to suit up for a game this season…and he’s been suiting up consistently on a playoff team

Joe Bowen: 1-0 Bean Counters LOL

 

Edmonton: Zach Hyman has 5 goals in the playoffs. Don't you love the salary cap?

 

Hahahhaha.

He’s supposed to be tough. Yet he blew snow there because he didn’t want to take a hit to make a play. He shouldn’t get another shift.

Only because Klingberg is on IR.

[Barnstorm]

I’d like to see Marchand tuned up once and for all. What a little prick he is.

[Alflives]

Nylander on IR waving to his many fans:

And he's too smart to get nuked into the boards.

More good news for Toronto.

Matthews, Marner, Nylander, and Tavares will be taking over 52% of the teams salary cap next season.

Bawston continues to kill the Laffs in th special teams battle. 

[Believe In Blue]

lol, Laffs look cooked. 
 

 

Bleh, I just hate that it had to be Marshrat.

So weird seeing Cam Neely with a beard.

Petey did the same thing. Should he be benched too?

Comparing Petey (a top five centre in the league) with Reaves.

There’s hope for Pettersson.

Reaves, not so much.

After getting called out by Joe Bowen, the radio play by play guy, for not making enough noise last game, Laff fans tried so hard to cheer in the first period. 
 

Now that Queefs are down by 2, their fans are back on mute. Worst in game experience in the league. The suits in the stands must think that they’re in church. 
 

The real fans are outside cheering their asses off.

Are we getting like that here too? The seats are so expensive only the corporate types, who aren’t really fans, can afford the cost? Very sad how the Canadian clubs have to support the US market.
