Whoever wins in just glad we have this series again. Boston/Toronto has never once disappointed and both the games and the fights on HF boards are top tier entertainment

 

[BB79]

funny I am feeling a Pasta hat trick

I'm feeling Samsonov returning to Sievesonov form, Marchand slew foots Matthews causing HFboards servers to melt into a pile of goo, 5-2 B's

If his season is anything to go by, he is more likely to score than not

With this hairline, I bet he strikes out a lot too.

In a game 1? Yeah, you can tell both fan bases have been there before. You can even confirm it by looking outside the board. Sure, there were some silly post, but no one actually thought the series was over. Besides, as per usual, most of the nonsense posts were not by Leafs or Bruins fans same as after game 2.

Pretty much every Leafs and Bruins fan said 6 or 7 games. It's holding true to form so far. I'll be disappointed if we don't get 7 nights of entertainment out of this one. Whoever wins gets both bragging rights and the right to have their faces caved in by the Panthers in the next round

Perhaps, but I am not just handing Florida a victory against Tampa or any other team.

5-4 Bruins

 

[SenzZen]

Good luck, mods!

No one is, I just don't see anyone beating them this year again if Bob goes into God mode again, which it looks like he might. If Tkachuk gets going on top of that, look out

Be interesting to see if Bruins can bounce back. They certainly looked out of it last game, and I don't even think they were as dominant in Game 1 as the scoreline suggested.

I'll predict Leafs win 3-1

We all knew the Leafs would respond. Question is do they keep it going or do the Bruins respond and go back to game 1 form

Negative. He nearly had as many 2 goal games as he had goalless games this year. He's about as automatic as it comes

Depending on how Sam Bennet is, could be true.

Panthers/Lightning has been the best series so far, followed by this one, although that may be more out of nostalgia.

I didn't.

I've seen this Leafs team crumble so much against inferior teams, that I wasn't expecting anything from them against this Bruins squad.

Keefe took care of the ref whining earlier. Second straight game too.

Taking notes from Cooper’s essay on “gaming the refs thru media”

I think they’ll need to be better than game 1 form to win game 3 tbh

You missed the joke, but that’s okay.

I'm quite good at doing that

I’m alone with the toddler tonight. Bedtime is puck drop. Wish me luck that it’s a 30 minute affair instead of a 90 minute one.

Thinking we see Auston held off the board tonight.

Pull a me. Put the toddler in the crib, put the AirPods in and ignore everything. It works. Trust me.

Same. But not in a Timmy's.
