[Nogatco Rd]

The glove throw moment changed the series. From there the leafs have been the superior team

Marner Glove Throw > Trouba Helmet Throw

LOL that was halfway though game 4. Yeah the Leafs played better than the Bruins in game 5. Fairly small sample size.

This is something you should probably save for when the series is decided to determine.

Just wait until Marchand throws his jock strap. It’s over for the rest of the league

May as well, he doesn't need one. Plays like he has no balls with all the turtling and diving.

 

[Just Rude]

I've fully resigned myself to the fact the B's are going to take us out again. Been that way since after Saturday night. The fall isn't as hard if you're ready for it.

But holy f***, if the Leafs win tomorrow, I'll be camping out here for the two-day meltdown leading up to Game 7.

 

[Ratsreign]

So for anyone who will be making any low-hanging fruit type of jokes about Matthews’ illness....go with, gas station SUSHI. Then it’ll be ok.
Now if it’s the Leafs Robertson you’re talking about, it might be better to use the taco pic, while avoiding any reference to sushi

Let me guess...Marchand snuck into your home during the night, ate your freshly baked apple pie, then wiped his butt on your curtains...It's happened to all of us (only for me it was pecan pie ).

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

That poster clearly never had a bad fish taco .....they are deadly i don't think Matthews being mexican saves him from those ones

 

[quat]

No, he's American, born in Arizona. He's no more a Mexican than I am an Irishman

Give us your gold!

 

[kevsh]

Wow buddy Marchand owns you.

No, he really does turtle and dive.

No doubt Marchand is a great player, legend at antagonizing & playing mind games with foes, and he's had the Leafs number this year too. But that whole segment with Holmsberg was embarrassing, not only another Marchand Specialty Dive but topped off by being manhandled by a linesman and then turtling. To a linesman.

Hilarious stuff and hey, the Bruins have owned the Leafs forever and they'll still probably win this series, so at least let us have our moment of well-deserved ridiculing the B's star. (And when I say 'let us have', I'm not really asking, just being polite).

 

[quat]

I would like to apologize on behalf of Leafs fans that are level-headed, and note that some of us realize a single win itself a) is not a comeback and b) we are still losing in the series, 3-2.

I hope the next 1 or 2 games are, at the very least, entertaining. The hockey thus far has been a little on the mediocre side and likely will not be adequate against Florida.

As a side note, f*** Sheldon Keefe.

On a unrelated note, your avatar has made my day!

the level of marchand trolling know no ends, he played half ass last night just to make sure he could go back to toronto and finish them in their own building.

Yeah, I'm mentally prepared for another Boston defeat, but for some reason I feel like Leafs are going to blow Boston out Game 6, chase Swayman etc.

Probably a very hot take.

Someone doesn't have a clue.

[Pizza!Pizza!]

I do not care for the leafs and I hope they lose.

Marchand is the greasiest, most unethical player in the league, Most suspensions, if they tracked dives, it'd be most dives as well.

Injuries and not playing Woll from game 1 is gonna be the nail in the coffin for the leafs

People talk about Mathews and Nylander missing time, most people don't know leafs are also missing a 15-goal scorer from their lineup with speed and physicality, who was a huge in the leafs top 6 for chemistry purposes. He could've been a huge difference maker in a series like this

Just not meant to be for the leafs as usual

Why do Leafs fans act like they are the only team dealing with injuries?

There’s not a single team that’s healthy and winning despite injuries is what separates the good teams and elite teams

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

No more than Cryers fans do

Cryers? How old are you?
Grow up

Missing Justin Brazeau and Derek Forbort is not the same as missing Auston Mathews, Nylander and Bobby Mcmann

Some people are acting like they weren't one shot away from elimination. It's probably a good idea to keep some humility and level headless. Good job!

No more than Cryers fans do

what's a cryer? I don't see that team in the NHL.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

team loses- Blow it up, this team is garbage, coach is a dum ass!
team wins- this is the best hockey team ever assembled, we will never lose again!

repeat this after every win and loss

This is true for just about every fanbase.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Leafs fought off elimination the old fashioned way - tough physical hockey.

Good on them to make things interesting...Team seems to play a different style without AM34...Maybe he's still under the weather

lol that was probably the least physical game of the series. Folks always make me laugh
