ECQF GAME 1 8:14 PM ET - TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS (A3) @ BOSTON BRUINS - CBC, TBS, TruTV, TVAS, NESN (New England)

[T REX]

Boston back on their heels

Not really

 

[Gnova]

Well.... Leafs just scored.... Still loads of time in game and plenty of series left. Believe this comes down to Leafs being able to break Boston goaltenders and getting over mental block/hump.

And here I thought it was about scoring more goals than the other team....

 

[BB79]

Turtle mode almost never works

Except for Vegas

 

[Summer Rose]

low bar

I'm a firm believer that momentum can carry over between games in a series. Their goal should be to win this period and try to carry that momentum over into game two.

 

[Canucks LB]

McAvoy with a couple apples tonight but not playing like a top Dman out there

Really, I think he’s been great.
He made one bad play honestly

 

[King Woodballs]

I love hear craig Simpson beside himself lol

 

[Despote]

Leafs have the most top heavy structure in the league and their 4th line has scored their only goal.

Pretty typical playoff Leafs.

 

[snowkiddin]

Craig Simpson in absolute shambles

 

[hatterson]

The penalty calls so far haven't been bad. But that one was atrocious.

 

[BlueSeal]

Late to the game and thread. Why'd the B's pull their goalie?

 

[Chainshot]

McCabe channeling his bad side.

 

[Score08]

Turtle mode almost never works

Not to worry the leads just shot off their other foot

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Late to the game and thread. Why'd the B's pull their goalie?

Delayed call on a weak ass penalty

 

[Grasshopperking]

Huge hit

Immediately changed the momentum

 

[All Mod Cons]

Holy f*** refs. Stop with the penalties every minute

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

Late to the game and thread. Why'd the B's pull their goalie?

Flexing on the leafs

 

[sampollock]

I love hear craig Simpson beside himself lol

He just wants to start screaming because that's what he gets paid for let's talk about nostrils

 

[eviohh26]

Weird that the ref closest watched that hit and called nothing. Guy at blueline calls it. Kinda lame.

 

[ShippinUpToBoston]

I find Pastrnak has been probably the worst player for Boston tonight so far

If he’s not scoring he’s a liability. I wish they’d trade him while his value is still sky high.

 

[VivaLasVegas]

Except for Vegas

Only because we practice it every game ..... all game .... even when behind.

 

[brentashton]

I love hear craig Simpson beside himself lol

Do you mean in love with himself?

 

[Svencouver]

Late to the game and thread. Why'd the B's pull their goalie?

they feel bad

 

[End of Line]

Same old leafs

The curse of Ballard is alive and well

 

[TMLeafer]

Leafs cannot play physically without taking penalties

Not with calls like these, no.

 

[sampollock]

Wonder if number 34 will play on the penalty kill
