Emergency recall of Cowan? j/k

 

[ThrowDemTongs]

Hahahaha. I’m actually live-streaming the bassmasters and I drive a Silverado. I’m not Babcock but I think he’d like me. That’s said I ain’t showing him my phone. Nobody wants to see those photos.

That thing better have a babymaxx under the hood!

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

Not having willy for game 1 really sucks. Robertson should play then

 

[Captain Crunch]

What have they done in the season to make you expect anything else? They takes hits but have they ever thrown one?

Matthews has been doing it more this year, and I expect him to play like a man on a mission. Nylander won’t throw a hit, but he has shown that he shows up in the playoffs. Marner is the wildcard, will definitely not be physical, but he has to to find a way to impact the game when needed, not produce empty stats.

Marlies are in Toronto we wouldn’t qualify for that recall.

[ACC1224]

Have the announced the refs yet?

Either Liljegren is in on the gamesmanship or Nylander might actually be injured.

Thanks. Do we like those guys?

I'm guessing the Bruins are still mulling over who they want to ref... will tell the league shortly. (Joking).

 

[RunItBackAgain]

Thanks. Do we like those guys?

They're a good draw for sure based on who else we could've gotten.

I'm assuming they're saving those people for later games.

Thanks. Do we like those guys?

IMO both are solid refs.

 

[Stephen]

Still in a very sour mood after the last 4 games of the season. Maybe starting under a heavy cloud of negativity, injury uncertainty and low expectations is the mood this team needs.

 

[Peasy]

There should be no excuses at this point

 

[MapleLeafs77]

Nylander is actually hurt….cant believe it

 

[Rude Dog]

Leafs have had trouble scoring goals in the past. Do not replace 88 with Gregor who barely played down the stretch.

Jarnkrok is going to be rusty, Reaves is what he is, Domi may still be hurt. Their D can’t provide offence. Keep Robby in.

Leafs in 6. Not sure about tonight

 

[Evilhomer]

I hope whoever to lives at the crazy leafs decorated house on Merton st west of bayview in Toronto Is a member here.

 

[Rude Dog]

If Leafs lose tonight I predict the storyline will be Sammy lower than 905 save percentage, PK still sucking and D having a hard time moving the puck. I like strong back end but do they have too many of the same player? Hopefully it works.

Exactly. Personally, I'm expecting: the Bruins to efficiently blanket us and score a few timely goals via their non-double-digit salary forwards; Leafs PP non-existant; Willy to be out more than one game and remaining Core 3 to fade backwards into the hedge like Homer Simpson.

There, jinxed the Bruins.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I am expecting an L tonight but would be obviously extremely happy to be wrong.

 

[theTTC]

Nylander is actually hurt….cant believe it

And he played the last games. ffs. Can't make this up, nobody would believe it. And aren't there other recent weird "injuries" we aren't being told much about, only that the guys won't play?

Leafs beginning to Leaf - hang onto your hat for more supernatural bizarreness.

 

[Canadian Finn]

They are amazing. I’ve donated a lot of money to those guys over the years. We’re from the same area. Same with Cooper Gallant. Great angler and fished a few tourneys against him. Neat seeing these guys at the top of the sport now.

Yah, Coop's a good kid as well (not really a kid anymore).

I fished the SEBO and Renegade series in my 20s, but quickly burnt out of tournie fishing.

 

[D00bis]

Everything is in the realm for the leafs to lose so I’m expecting a big game from them seems to be the trend this season. LETS GOOOO!

 

[Menzinger]

Either Liljegren is in on the gamesmanship or Nylander might actually be injured.

That is dreadful to hear.....

So not expecting him anywhere near game 1.

Every team should have been given 7 full days between game 82 and game 1 of the playoffs
