ECQF: Boston Bruins vs Toronto Maple Leafs (Series Tied 3-3)

[wintersej]

Unfortunately, Tavares/Marner not doing their part in the playoffs is commonplace, so Nylander becomes even more important during this time

It is tough to make a comparison between both teams due to roster construction as you said. Lindholm is likely the most accurate you can get, except he would have to be better (essentially last year's version of Lindholm on this year's Bruins)

Maybe somewhere in between this year and last year. 4th in the Norris is pretty high up there.

That's fair. I didn't realize he finished that high up last year, wow.

Matthew’s gets a pass. Marner had a nice goal but not nearly good enough

I just wanna hear what Dear Sheldon has to say.

Why does Matthews always seem to get the pass? He has scored in 1 game of 4. He scored 69 in the regular season

Signing Tavares to that contract pretty much destroyed any chance the Leafs might have had at being a serious contender. Pretty hilarious in hindsight. And also a great example to be careful what you wish for.

Why does he get a pass? He had one good game and has been terrible In the rest. Also someone tell boss man Hughes to go into hiding with his garbage takes.

Since the pressure was on (when he had 69 and was trying to get 70…and now in the playoffs), he has stopped scoring.

Food poisoning is f***ing awful and it's near impossible to perform in athletics while dealing with it. Same with migraines.

Lost in the fact that the Leafs shit the bed, literally by the sounds of it, is that the Bruins are full marks for being up 3-1.

Won’t stop cheering until the B’s win #4, but I think the fans said “f*** this” tonight. They’re fed up.

Congrats to Boston. Full marks.

Marchand > Matthews

That stupid penalty Nylander took sapped all the momentum Toronto began to generate in the 3rd there. Horrible discipline. Great defensive effort from the Bruins tonight. They're famously bad at game 5's so the series is far from over.

They really blew that window of Prime Tavares - Matthews - Kadri down the middle, with marner nylander & hyman on the wings.

People like this are so performative and lame.

It's time to fire up the Florida vs Boston thread

The leafs are 3-9 at home since the post-covid playoffs started, and have lost their last six straight home playoff games.
