GDT: Around the NHL - Playoff Edition

[Big Friggin Dummy]

For as much (deserved) shit Matthews gets, and Marner, Nylander went from carrying the Leafs in the first round to a complete ghost the last 9 periods of this series.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Never wanna hear Lundell’s name in the same sentence as Kotkaniemi from you again @JackFr

Dude is a beast

 

[Turin]

Anyways, I can't believe Dubas would do this

 

[Pancakes]

I think there's zero chance Marner wants to be back after this. He's the first marched to the gallows every year, and this one will be no different.

I do find it funny when Leafs fans keep pumping Nylanders tires as though he hasn't also been a loser

Marner will lock, they’ll pay Knies too much. Tavares stays. They’ll misuse the cap savings on Marner with an overpaid FA. Rielly won’t get any better, Stolarz will come back to Earth.

Treliving will continue their descent into Calgary 2.0 (great core players but still mid).

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Yeah, I dunno. We'll get a whole lot of "we believe in this core" etc, etc, but that Leafs team genuinely needs blown up. For everybody's sake, imo.

I certainly haven't seen anything from Boston Pizza guy to assume he'll handle what's coming particularly well

Yeah, I just said above that he's been abysmal, a total ghost, for the last three games of this series and unless he pulls some heroics, this'll be four. Completely disappeared.

 

[Al Smith]

Not quite as bad as the Pens' demolishing of the North Stars in the last game of 1991 SCF, but there's still 10 minutes left for Toronto to continue this embarrassment.

 

[GilbertSeinfeld]

TNT busy showing penalties not being called and missed the Reinhart goal.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I'd post the "throw in the damn towel" gif but this shit's hilarious. If Edmonton's gonna be on a heater, maximum suffering for the Leafs is the best I can hope for.

I just can't believe they never disappoint. For the league I mean, not their fans. They are consistently entertaining in the way they lose every year

 

[GilbertSeinfeld]

Toronto FINALLY wins a game in Florida and play like this in game seven after playing like this is game five.

Insane. But then again, Florida is just better. They have a gear Toronto hasn't been able to reach for a few years now and they can do it with a lot more intensity.

 

[ThosePuckingPenguins]

Kyle Dubas was the problem with the Leafs though. FOH.

 

[canadianguy77]

Beating a dead dog at this point.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Yeah, I dunno how you handle this summer. Marner's gone, Tavares should be gone, Matthews' morale has to be like near rock-bottom, Nylander looks like he checked out entirely after game 3.

 

[ORRFForever]

Watching the Leafs game, as a Canadian, how did you get Sid and we got Matthews? It's NOT fair/right.

You knew it was coming. They’re like our team before we got horny and bonino and Cullen. Too many soft guys.

Even in the Bylsma years Pens didn't get blown out in elimination games. Usually lost like 3-1 or 4-2 or something. Leafs ALWAYS make it embarassing

 

[SomeDude]

I like how Toronto's arena music guy is apparently a 14 year old girl in 2002. Blasting Linkin Park to drown out the feelings.

 

[GilbertSeinfeld]

Toronto was literally about to be up 3-0, found a way to to lose that game, and in OT, only to lose in seven.

I seriously can't stop smiling.

Edmonton Canada's only hope again.

Gross….

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Lol
