Agreed when you take out some good things the Leafs did in the game the Leafs look worse.



They've been through the pressure ringer many times at this point is what I am saying, and they absolutely have done that.
Toronto could very well win this series against Florida. A 2-0 series deficit isn't insurmountable.

But when you say that they have been through the pressure ringer, then you must also admit that they have failed much more often than they have succeeded when faced with pressure.

Before finally winning against Tampa Bay in game 6, they had lost something like 10 games in a row where they had a chance to win a series.

They have had a very poor game 7 win-loss record too.

They can beat Florida this series. No doubt about that. But they haven't reacted well to pressure in the past.
 
Yes. When you take out the unevenly called penalties and the fact that Florida was defending a lead a good portion of both games the games were both close as reflected by the score.

Weren't you making fun of Leaf fans for using refs as an excuse?

"Been through the pressure ringer"


Games played: 8
Won: 4
Lost: 4

Yes, so battle tested. New dynasty. Lmao

lol more like 6 straight first round exits, being told they will never win and can't do it. over coming adversity time and time again, finding ways to win. They have done that with the pressure on them. Hell last series game 6 was probably the peak of pressure on the Leafs as a team

‘Overcoming adversity time and time again’.
‘Finding ways to win’.

Wait. Are we talking about the same team?
 
Anyways, not spending all afternoon arguing with haters who will vanish as soon as the Leafs are winning. If someone watched those 2 games and thinks this series is close to over I don't respect their scouting ability.

Leafs are winning tonight and going back to TO tied most likely. They will win the series. GLG

Lmao. Time and time again, what, losing? Agreed.

You're fooling nobody. The biggest fraudulent core of mental midgets is the core consisting of Marner, Tavares, Matthews, Nylander and Reilly. Until they win an ECF and/or Cup, that perception won't change. Fact.

In other words

"They aren't buying my bullshit win-o-meter, time to leave"

Hopefully for you this prediction ages better than your Toronto in four games one.
For the record, I think Toronto can still win this series. But it’s on the star players to wake up and start performing like they are capable of. Not relying on lame excuses like elite goaltending or bad luck. It’s past time for this group and excuses.

I was about to say I don't think there was much pressure on them when Matthews and Marner were 19 and 20 years old. The pressure really began in the Montreal series but you're right the most pressure they've faced was this season and they responded well.

Again, I will say that they can still beat Florida this series.

But if we look at past history, they haven't been "overcoming adversity time and time again, finding ways to win.".

In fact, they have mostly found ways to lose.

This year can still be different.

But the past is unmistakable.

Forreal. If there's a team that bundles adversity with winning, it's the leafs and when they do it, they're on the losing end. They're incredibly creative on how they lose.

Talking about this season. People think I am trying to say they've won before this year? No you guys just don't follow the Leafs aside from seeing when they lose. After all the team they had been through, the terrible start and then losing their top 4 D to injury as the media and fans want blood, coming back and clawing their way back, finding ways to win all season despite tons of adversity in every position.

Finding a way to tune out the noise and win the series in high pressure games., I am saying tonight is nothing this group isn't used to.

But, they aren't.

1 series win in 19 years across multiple cores, many of which the current one lost, is not "finding a way to tune out the noise."
 
Being completely serious - I legit think the Leafs will win today.

Am I being ironic, or angling for a jinx? Who’s to say?
 
I remember Tampa vastly outplaying Toronto, yet still losing in a convincingly unclutch fashion.

Rinse and repeat. Leafs now in the Tampa seat.

Toronto will win tonight. They will bring their A+ game and I don't think Bobrovsky can continue playing at such a high level.
