Gallant asking the Ref, "How's your Ferrari?"

 

[zman77]

They were supposed to win the Stanley Cup!

Hyman is a key player for the Leafs.
He can a 'heavy game.'
He's got skill too.

Although I'm totally on board with the emoji lineup gag, it seems weird to use *one* emoji and everybody else's last name.

Especially considering how incredibly average their goat is.

 

[Canes]

Nordstrom scores to open up the scoring in game 7.

Bad goal by Andersen

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Yeah, bad goal by Andersen at a bad time.

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

Yeah, bad goal by Andersen at a bad time.

Hopefully he has a few more in him

 

[Canes]

Hopefully he has a few more in him

Leaves fans will blame Matthews for it somehow

Just kidding, they'll eventually turn on Andersen too

Tavares will get shit on too

And Johansson scores to make it 2-0 right as I submit this...

 

[Canes]

Toronna fans have gone from shitting on all over Gardiner the last time they got eliminated to pumping his tires again this season back to shitting all over him again.

I feel bad for the players. Even though it's mostly their fault for their failures, Toronna must be an absolute hellhole to play in.

Maybe should have invested that Tavares money into defense or something idk

You gotta remember teams will be bending over backwards to give them their young top pairing D signed to bargain long term deals for their spare parts.

Nylander is an elite 1C...I mean, uhhh, 3C-ish?

 

[HisIceness]

Not sure why Gardiner dropped pass behind his own net to a Bruin

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

McAvoy with a big oops on that one. Rask bailed him out.

 

[Canes]

Not sure why Gardiner dropped pass behind his own net to a Bruin

Bruins are apparently his kryptonite

 

[Canes]

JT gets one back. He's off the shit list for at least one season.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

For how bad the Canes ice has been, the puck sure seems to be bouncing over a lot of sticks the first 5 min. of the 2nd in Boston.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Great save by Andersen on that Marchand shot.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Leafs absolutely dominating play now,but can't get one by Rask. Great pace to this game.

 

[My Special Purpose]

It seems like eons ago that Columbus beat Tampa Bay. I just saw a story about them and it took a minute to register that they were still in the playoffs.

I always found "bad ice" to be one of the worst, lamest excuses...especially for some of the most skilled teams. Half these guys grew up playing either street hockey, on frozen lakes, or backwater ice rinks where the ice was far from perfect. Plus, BOTH teams play on the same ice. It's not like you "get used" to playing on it and are better as a result, otherwise shouldn't you be 10x better on good ice?

I would steer you over to the Caps boards where the "ice in PNC is the worst shit ever" and "wait until we get back to DC and that perfect sheet". It's like Joe Paterno use to say, "...it's raining on both sides of the field."

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Andersen lets in two goals he really should have stopped. Looks like that might be the difference in this game as well.
