ECQF GAME 7 - 8:14 PM - Toronto Maple Leafs (3) @ BOSTON BRUINS (3) - I assure you Woll is injured

[Skolman]

Bruins look terrible

 

[Aoko]

Good god this game is intense and I have no stake in it, can't imagine how Leafs and Bruins fans feel.

The best way to enjoy Game 7s. Being completely unbiased.

Being able to respect both teams play without crying about how the officiating is. Truly peak hockey.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

just dont call ne thing.... let them kill each other... at least its fair... you call a stick on stick play a penalty... then a trip on a break away is nothing.

No one know what a penalty is or isn't... no one wants to watch this garbage officiating on both ends.

I totally agree with the bolded part.

The standard for a penalty in the second period has been ridiculously different compared to the first.

And Bruins fans still complain

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Isn't there a rule where if you get puck first and skate second it's not deemed a penalty? I could be wrong

Used to be. Not the rule anymore.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

To draw a penalty shot that is a better scoring opportunity than a contested, rushed breakaway?

Nonsense

 

[Frenchy]

Why the hell would you dive on a breakaway?

if you dive on a breakaway , does it become a swimaway ?

Ok i'll show myself out --->

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

stop with the cute tip passes and f***ing shoot

 

[Matt24]

I’m still stunned by the non-call on the Knies break. How do you miss that?

 

[Pablo El Perro]

I'd call Jarnkrok a darn solid 3rd line Swiss Army knife. And Holmberg looks like he's maybe cut from the same cloth and doing nice things as an inexperienced player.


But yeah. The Leafs blueline is clearly a bit of a mess.

It's just weird that their forward group somehow doesn't feel at all deep either. Even when they've got some solid bottom-6 players like that, and more.

On a good team, imo, they're both versatile 4th liners. Can they play up on a third or second line, sure. But you want somebody more effective for that role.

 

[Fraser28]

Good god this game is intense and I have no stake in it, can't imagine how Leafs and Bruins fans feel.

You think so? I find it pretty meh so far.

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

The NHL spent all it's scoring in the 'historic' regular season. Nothing left for the Playoffs unfortunately

 

[mm11]

Leafs playing solid D. The game is right there for them. Bruins choking it away.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Why the hell would you dive on a breakaway?

Bad decision, I agree.

You're no summer rose that's for sure

 

[shaner8989]

Rigged. One of the worst reffed game ever here

 

[Strangle]

I’m still stunned by the non-call on the Knies break. How do you miss that?

I’m flabbergasted as well

This reffing makes zero sense, great job NHL

 

[Ghost of Murph]

Just shoot into traffic and hope for a pinball goal.

 

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

Good god this game is intense and I have no stake in it, can't imagine how Leafs and Bruins fans feel.

It's fun to watch when I have no skin in the game because I'm not an anxious mess .

That being said, is there a way both these teams can lose? this game 7 has been kind of a mess so far

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Yeah. Those usually have entirely different inherent bias in them.

It's mostly just puzzles with some vocab that most of us working people aren't exposed to.

 

[Lshap]

To draw a penalty shot that is a better scoring opportunity than a contested, rushed breakaway?

The stick went under his skate and he went down. 100% tripping and in almost any other case a penalty shot. It's an egregiously bad call.

 

[John Mandalorian]

Has any team ever blown a 3-1 series lead in back to back years? My friend just asked me that and I'm drawing a blank.

No. Was mentioned at the beginning of the ESPN broadcast.

 

[Craig Button]

Did even touch the puck
