Yeah, they got the "gift" of a team that just proved their mettle and then some.I remember when I said "Woo we didn't get the Isles. Thank god we only got the Panthers."
Aged like milk. Be careful what you wish for.

Yes...voodoo is the answer.Everyone continue to vote Leafs in 4/5 again and count out Florida please and thank you
Your post is sad. Boston was absolute shit. They must never have gotten over the virus that went theough the room.You are referring to the team that just set the record for most wins in a season? You mean that tired and over the hilll team. Imagine if they didnt set the record what would you call them? This is hilarious no way you just made this argument?
And you realize youre talking about a team that just went the 3 straight finals, and the Leafs were the first Eastern team to beat them in the past 4 seasons.You are referring to the team that just set the record for most wins in a season?

Please don't threaten us with your awesome powers of predicting the future. There is no stronger argument.....rofl.One more season of tanking for the Habs and one more season with Matthews and Nylander for the Leafs....good luck with that.

Boston didnt even have their best player for half the series and when he came back he was still extremely injured.
Youre just sayin ridiculous shit and its actually crazy youre giving that Tampa team no credit after just sweeping you last round.

HFBoards in Boston vs Florida series thread: "The Cats have no chance at all. This is an easy series for the Bruins." ----> Florida beats the Bruins in 7.
The same day Florida defeats the strongest team in the league, HFBoards: "The Cats have no chance against Toronto. This is an easy walk in the park for the Leafs.
Me:
Why is it that every year people don't learn their lesson? Stop finding ways not to give credit to unexpected teams beating juggernauts. If they did, it's because they are good and dangerous.

You do realize that how the fans act on HF makes literally no difference on what happens on the ice right? I could say the Leafs are going to win the next 3 series without losing a game and it doesn’t matter lolI love the hubris being displayed by Leafs fans here. If there is a sport where you don't want to face a low seed that has been on a late-season tear and playing for its life for at least a month it is hockey. This is also not a traditional low seed, but a team with a core that recently won a President's trophy and struggled to adapt to a new coach for a bit before it found its legs. This Panthers team feels more like an LA-Kings-ish low seed than a team like the Kraken or the 2019 Blue Jackets.
I like how many people are quoting me, a Leafs fan, as if I don't know that playoff losses happen.
I am saying, the Panthers are objectively a MUCH worse team than the Bruins and not only that, do not come with the emotional baggage the Bruins would have.
Leafs have been the better team than the Panthers each time they faced, and they faced exclusively end of season when they were playing hot and had Lyon standing on his head.
You going to pretend the Panthers D wasn't swiss cheese and the bruins couldn't execute? Lyon weak glove hand and Bob kicking out rebounds to middle of the ice every time. How many odd man rushes the Panthers giving up trying to push hard?
Bergeron was badly hurt, Marchand has declined, Pasta choked, etc but the Leafs have in their prime stars who are going to eat their backend and goalie alive. Meanwhile, the Leafs have been a top defensive team all year and can handle the Panthers forecheck.
Not to mention Tkachuk is a playoff ghost the longer it goes on. Had a good series but was invisible in game 7. Barkov invisible the whole series. Leafs are the heavy favorites and just because Boston are a bunch of chokers doesn't mean the Leafs will be.
Even John Cooper said he thought the Lightning played better this year in the playoffs than last year, where they went to the Cup Finals.People in this thread seriously showing again they never watched the leafs series. No chance Panthers forecheck harder than Tampa did. Excuses they were cooked and some easy win are laughable, their power on the puck was insane and Leafs barely held on.
Meanwhile Panthers can forecheck heavy but that is also the Leafs game... We can cycle the Panthers out of the building if needed or play the run and gun game. U pick how you want to lose

I've been saying the Panthers were just struggling with Sh% and sv% all year, kept telling people they were better than their record.
This is going to be a very even battle, much like the series vs Tampa. Could come down to goaltending and PK.

Those numbers are league wide ranks out of 32 ^^^
Panthers are number one in the NHL in winning board puck battles. You can make the argument they are the BEST forechecking team in the NHL.
Lol. You’ve never played Bennett and Tkachuk in an elimination series before.

The thing is who in the Florida is going to pay the price the leafs fans will? That guy was as clueless as a sheep who blindly follows the herd. Imagine being a reporter with 0 knowledge.This is so false lol
