GDT: ECSF: (A1) Toronto Maple Leafs vs (A3) Florida Panthers - GAME 2 - 7 PM EST IN TORONTO (Mod warning, Post #70)

[Matt24]

Feel pretty confident whoever wins this game wins the series. Leafs, playoff disappointment or not, are just hard to beat 4 out of 5 times.

 

[McFlash97]

Leafs might be for real. Panthers look lost. They're done. Unless they win both at home.

 

[DopeyFish]

Playing Hold On by Triumph as the 2nd closes and then Lay It On The Line commercial comes on not long after.....Haha how sick are prople gonna be of Rick Emmitt and Triumph by the time the playoffs end ?

you can never get sick of rick emmett

 

[Summer Rose]

I wonder what they're going to change the rules to in this intermission?

Yes.

 

[Strangle]

Desperate to get the Leafs to advance but Bennett gets away with taking our goalie out for the series, checks out

And Tavares had a clear run at Bob if he wanted it behind the net to end the period and he pulled up.

Leafs have way too much class to try to take out another player. They want to win because they’re better players, not like Marchand said “to get a bigger advantage”

 

[Leaf Fans]

That's written in pencil right??

Since it is only game 2 of round two, it is very likely.

 

[Mike C]

Its possible, he always shows zero emotion when Domi does something good.

He's as concussed one human being can be. Does he even know who he is??

 

[stats1]

It only took 9 years and a bad ass like Berube to get the Leafs to play physically

 

[BHD]

I think John Forslund says it best, THAT'S HOCKEY BABY

“Max Domi from downtown.”

 

[BB79]

Are you watching? What reverse jinx this shit is over. Domi chucking pucks on net top cheese.

It's over dude. Congrats.

I'm not a Toronto fan lol but look how the first round played out. Nothing is over yet.

Well my borther in law would agree....Think he has a lot of his stuff on vinyl....

 

[Leaf Fans]

The pride parade is planned for June 29th in Toronto….

Oh, yeah, that would be a set date.

 

[North Cole]

This ref pair should be done from the playoffs. Clown car.

 

[ProjectPanthers]

Leafs have a horseshoe up their ass. It was bound to happen one year. It's over.

 

[Clint Eastwood]

Panthers seem to be playing pretty well doing what they usually do but they're getting burnt by the rush . . . a lot.

 

[LeafAttack]

I hope the Leafs try to draw as many penalties as they can to put more pressure on the bonehead refs.

 

[behemolari]

Can't lie this Leafs team looks legit.

they are good with transitions and thats all, it has worked surprisingly good so far

 

[Ghost of Murph]

Berube's effect on this team has been amazing. The compete level and def IQ are the best I've seen in the Matthews era.

 

[Atrusai]

The Leafs are trying to do something different this year. Make it all the way to game 7 of the finals and then blow it. Losing in the 1st and 2nd round isn't enough suffering for us.

Yes.

Wow, are you the famous Summer Rose from all the likes?

 

[Isaac Nootin]

Refs just set the standard. Better not call anything short of attempted murder in the 3rd.

 

[Ratsreign]

I already don't remember which game it was by now but this year one of the games on TNT went black for a little bit, then they cut over to the Sportsnet version for most of the rest of the period. The audio mixing was so much better. Wasn't exactly excited to get the TNT version back.

Used to be one of the highlights of the first round was the US network just piping in the Canadian feed.

 

[behemolari]

Panthers seem to be playing pretty well doing what they usually do but they're getting burnt by the rush . . . a lot.

they are way too relentless

 

[Mike C]

I don't know what Holmberg has done to the Panthers, but man they don't seem to like him.

He needs to stay on his feet a bit more as although he should have drawn a penalty or 2, he's gone down so easily that it completely negated the penalty call.

He keeps playing like this and he may be a healthy scratch next game

 

[Summer Rose]

This ref pair should be done from the playoffs. Clown car.

I'm not sure how scheduling works within a playoff round, but they do trim down the officials after each round of the playoffs (after initially naming 22 referees and 22 linesmen to start the playoffs). These guys better be cut after this round.

 

[T REX]

Going down 0-2 would be the end of the Panthers
