you also said the oilers would lose to the stars, would get spanked by panthers and many other takes
results are winning a cup; ask him he'll tell you himself nothing else matters. sure was dragging them around to 1 even strength point head to head versus Barkov
Really, it’s not like he was up against Ben Ben Chiarot or Pierre Luc Dubois. That’s why he’s not the highest paid player in the league.
why are we talking about ben chiarot or dubois? i was discussing game 6 and 7 houdini acts. maybe they'd just score in game 7 they'd have won. Not so easy when Bob isnt Silovs and Barkov is literally your shadow.
He up and disappeared. Had he faced either PLD or Chiarot it would be understandable, but not Florida.
No i expect McDavid to get the job done because he is apparently the greatest ever. If that was Crosby in Game 7 in that situation he doesnt get out muscled in the slot after putting Bob on his ass.
not that I necessarily agree with the initial comment and am just playing devil's advocate but ive time and time read that when youre down 3-0 or 3-1 there's no pressure and that's why the leafs always come back but then never close out game 7.
You think he’s the greatest ever? Have you not see Mitchy, Willy and Ragged Doll play in the playoffs?
this my friend is called a strawman; I havent once discussed a leaf player not sure why you're bringing them up?
He said it was cup or bust so the team busted but you cannot deny he pulled his weight.
Yet you defend Willie and shit on Matthew Tkachuk who was crap in the SCF. Make up your mind.
of course he did but in a legacy defining moment you cant go 0-0 30% on the FO dot and get 2 shots on goal. That can't happen.
I havent discussed a leaf player at all here in this conversation. Willies a loser because the leafs dont win...
Agreed I expected him to dominate last night but I think the Panthers knew life would be hell if they blew a 3-0 lead and lost in 7. They were not losing last night.
I think it's absolutely fair to ask whether the best player in the world was effective enough in the biggest game of his career. For better or worse, that's what comes with being the best - you don't become Jordan or Bryant without performing in the biggest moments.
Didn't Wayne and Sid lost their first Cup Finals.
I think thats fair and McD did whimp on a very good chance late in the game.
I won't be surprised if he has a pretty ordinary regular season in terms of numbers. Hard to imagine he could possibly care much about regular season numbers at this point.
My team lost to boston in game 7
You also dont become Bryant or Lebron or a Sidney Crosby without a Ron Artest/Pau Gasol or Ray Allen/Kyrie Irving or Maxime Talbot/MAF to bail you out when you choke in the pivotal game/moments like Kobe in 2010 game 7, lebron game 6 vs spurs pre Ray Allen 3, and Crosby all of 2009 finals vs DRW
I think he’s the T word pretending to be a Leaf fanboy.
my hf leafs conspiracy theory is he is an alt account for someone who’s username begins with D…
