ECSF - Game 1 - Toronto Maple Leafs vs Florida Panthers - 7pm EST, ESPN

[Leonardo87]

Florida looking very good after taking a couple of penalties earlier. What a save by Samsonov.

 

[mkatcherin00]

D is completely optional on Torontos part. FLA could have 5 goals

 

[dechire]

Florida looks so f***ing good

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

Panthers are impressing me
They are flying

 

[Frenchy]

Samsanov kept the Leafs in the game

 

[zeykshade]

TOR looks like they are hungover.

First Round Parade Hangover.

 

[kendoman]

Cats looking pretty insane

 

[IceManCat]

The Panthers are POSSESSEDDDDD

 

[Channelcat]

This is gonna get ugly, isn't it

 

[JadedLeaf]

Wake the f*** up

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

Flames would like Tkachuk and Bennett back.

Huberdeau-Bennett-Tkachuk would be a hell of a line for the Flames.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

They're calling Toronto for a penalty. Somebody won a bet.

 

[BB79]

It's still just 1 to 0 in period one of game one. Apparently, they didn't get the memo that the Bs have a bad history against the Cats in the loffs.

I always thought it was just because Luongo, but yeah, historically we suck against Florida

 

[Matt24]

Just like the Bruins, the Leafs have no answer for the Bennett line.

 

[StickShift]

It doesn’t seem like many fans were discounting the Panthers at all—but Florida is definitely showing just how dangerous they are.

 

[izzy]

this is complete dominance by florida in the 2nd half of this period

 

[Theodore450]

Tkachuk wasn’t being humble when he said they beat the best team and now they get to play the 2nd best team

 

[mkatcherin00]

Complete domination by FLA geez

 

[5 14 6 1]

Super exciting period as a third party. Great hockey to watch!

 

[BB88]

Leafs too fast

 

[thethirdhockeyman91]

Panthers are winning the cup if they keep this up.

 

[bossram]

Cats are shutting down the transition too

Uhhh.....no. The Leafs probably have more controlled entries and pure rush chances this period than any game against TB.

Matthews had literally one tracked controlled entry in G6. He has a partial breakaway on the first shift of this game.

 

[robertocarlos]

Watch out for that long pass by the Leafs.

 

[Powinkle]

Samsanov has been much more impactful than I expected him to be so far this playoffs.

 

[fsanford]

Now seeing why the Panthers took down Boston, they are relentless
