Post-Game Talk: AHHHHHHH!!!! Leafs win 2-0 Game 6

[Squiffy]

I said two games.

 

[Madap]

Okay don’t lie. You all have hope again.

They earned themselves a chance to change the narrative on Sunday. Do it this time. Send these cats the f*** home.

 

[Delete1]

It’s been said all year that this team “is different.” They sure didn’t look it in Game 5 but they answered the call in Game 6.

Now what would truly support that claim is not only the first Game 7 win for this franchise in 21 years, but the first trip to the Conference Finals in 23 years.

Sunday will be an era defining moment.

It really won't be "era-defining". It's just another step in a what was always going to be the outcome this season. The leafs will win on Sunday because they are the better team, with the better coach, and the better goalie. For all of those same reasons, they will beat Carolina in the conference final.

Benoit had a sick game.

Big hits, carrying the puck, big on the PK.

He's had some really good games this playoffs.

He’s been awesome

 

[wingman75]

Like I mean. I'm happy. But whyyyyy another game 7

It's what comes after 6...

Here, this should help.

GET TO THE CHOPPAH!!!!

 

[Oilking83]

All shutouts too!

Matthew’s and Marner don’t need 3-4 point games to win game 7. If they play exactly like they did tonight and commit to shutting down the panthers they got a real good chance of winning game 7. Fingers crossed for Oil vs Leafs finals boys

 

[Squiffy]

Auston Matthews heard all my criticisms and ignored them completely

Oh he had a game didn’t he?

Does every single one of your posts need to be some sort of prediction?

If Wes McCauley is officiating game 7 I will hang myself

Reffing can’t get much more one-sided as it was tonight.

This should be Matthews baseline, absolutely. He’s capable, whether he channels it consistently or not is up to him.

Yep. This isn’t a triumph, this is the bar. Keep going.

 

[Rare Jewel]

Humble? Humility is for losers. It's for respect in the handshake line. It's everything that was wrong with the previous iteration of this management and coaching staff.

Arrogance wins. It always has. In every aspect of life. Society likes to pretend it doesn't, but there are no humble winners.

Right...

Well, that's good for them; however, for a poster on a message board who supports a fantastically underachieving team, maybe rein it in a bit?

But I get it's probably like a gambling high trying to get these right.

 

[GlitchMarner]

Great to see Mathews get a goal. This is what they needed from him.

Hopefully this goal gives him confidence and he can get another one (or two) on Sunday.


Good bounce back game from Marner tonight after that shit Game Five he had.

Nylander didn't do much in this one. He was the best forward in Game Five but not much of a factor tonight. Hopefully he breaks his goal drought on Sunday.

I've got bad news for you.

Well it comes down to one game. We all knew this was going to be a long series
The pressure is on the Panthers, not the Leafs

I disagree game 7 in Toronto. There’s a ton of pressure on the leafs based on there history.

Oh well that's great news to hear after this win...didn't look that bad. wonder what happened to him

 

[ClarkSittler]

Huge win. I'm ready to be hurt again.

I'm not, let's turn over a new Leaf and win one of these suckers!

 

[fahad203]

I can complain about a lot of players
Benoit and Tanevs aren't few of them

Benoit is just the best contract in the league

 

[mikeyz]

Okay don’t lie. You all have hope again.

I actually don't. I'm not doing this again. My heart can't take it. LOL. Until they actually do it, I'm not getting my hopes up with them ever again

Don't challenge the universe like that.
