This game scares the crap out of me.
We need to do to them what they did to us in Game 1: outwork them off the opening face-off, score an early to stun and shut up the Tampa fans, and make them chase us the remainder of the game.
If we let them dictate play and bring it to us, we are screwed......... fast.

Hedman being back is a lift for Tampa but I doubt the guy is near 100%.

He was at morning skate before game 2 as well. Exact same video. He will be a game time decision unless I missed something?
edit: Looks like he is doing line rushes with his usual partner and working in his usual PP spot. Bring it to him early and hard!

True.
To be honest, he hadn’t been great this year. If he has a groin pull that he is playing through, could be a detriment to his team.
But Tampa is thin on defense. They have no choice. And really miss McDonaugh

Nothing missed yet. I'm just thinking as we get deeper in the higher chance he forces himself into the lineup.

No guarantee he plays. Why would they risk it at this point, goes in the corner with Acciari or Schenn steps up on him it’s over. Won’t last a period.

Even at 50% he is still an impact player..
Leafs exposed TB without Hedman and Cernak.
Tampa having home ice and last change adds to the Leafs challenge.

He was out for the morning skate before game 2. No confirmation he is in as far as I know but it wouldn't shock me.

The last game was good, but we already knew the Leafs can respond after a loss. What I really want to see is if they can win twice in a row, against a desperate Tampa team playing at home. That's what they need to do if they want to eventually win this series

It really doesn't. If anything last change should help as it'll prevent Keefe from doing dumb shit and over thinking things. Just go out and play.

Thought you guys were doing a sign up sheet for GDT's?

The way they played in game 1 is what scares me. Where was the vibe then?

They need to take runs at Hedman every chance they get, just absolutely wear him down.

Soooo anyone else notice the Leafs are following the Oilers Win/Loss record in the playoffs? Lose the first game at home, win the second game at home? Oil lost their first game on the road? If we lose tonight I'm gonna lose my s#it.
Both teams had 50 wins in the regular season.
One team had 111 points the other had 109.
Is there some sort of Quantum entanglement between the Oil and the Leafs?

Not sure if I want our players to forget as well, maybe remembering is better, who knows. It's baffling that two teams this good can take turns playing so poorly, just like last year. I'm nervous as hell, that's all I know. 7+ hours to go ...
