Florida Panthers beat Toronto Maple leafs 4-1, advance to ECF

[Advanced stats]

The window, however open or closed it actually was is probably finally closed for this core. You need to blow it up.

The Matthews/Marner days are done. They can't get it done.

Woll put on a great show and the team couldn't get it done.

Losers when it matters and no shows when it counts.

They'll run it back with a new coach and minor changes. It's a great team, just needs some consistent effort.

Told ya so, Toronto fans

 

[Turin]

Well they won a game in the 2nd round. Baby steps.

 

[Satans Hockey]

I didn't care who won this but missed call on the ot goal there with Gudas clear as day holding the Leafs players stick...

He's all yours, and then you don't

What an awful series from Matthews.

say stuff like this. Anyway I'm out.

Still working on the spring cleaning while summer is quickly approaching.

Should the NHL have the Panthers and Leafs redo their series in case it was a big fluke?
No disrespect to the Panthers, I'm a firm believer that Florida beating them in 5 is a huge fluke and robs the Leafs of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I've spent the entire regular season watching the Leafs play great hockey it's just not fair.
If the Leafs lose again I will face that the Panthers deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the Leafs and the NHL.

Its called 'running into a hot goalie'. Tough luck.

Tavares is a shitty captain, and perpetual loser.

Every game of this series was tied 2-2 at some point. Says a lot about who had the killer instinct

Too bad, so sad

New year, same results

Does Toronto need another 1st OA pick to win a second round?

 

[Blueline Bomber]

The Leafs’ core four officially ends their playoff run with fewer second round points (8) than Jordan Martinook (10)

They have no heart and aren't playoff performers.

 

[Sheppy]

No one can tell me, not one single human being can tell me that Auston Matthews is a top 5 player in this league.

 

[Theodore450]

Matthews cements his legacy. Marner continues to disappoint

I doubt they missed it.

I blame it on the exchange rate between US and Canadian dollars or something.

 

[Mr Sakich]

I am at the cabin so I did not watch the game. Can someone update me on the really important part of the game - how did Toronto look in the handshake line?

 

[barkovcanfinnish]

Good series Leaf fans. I know it doesn’t help but every game was extremely close.

[Yatzhee]

It really is shocking at just how invisible the Toronto big guns were this series. Mathews definitely is not worth the money, and I posted the day Tavares signed that contract would be regretted.

 

[Frank Drebin]

Tavares is a shitty captain, and perpetual loser.

He's the best they have I think.

Not really trying to pile on leaf fans tonight, but I think there are issues with that teams DNA

 

[Bowski]

Auston should get a new lucky purse for next season.
Might just luck out and passenger his way into the ECF with the right one.

Honestly Florida was just the far superior team
In the series…. Idk if Toronto slept on them
Or we’re on a high after making the 2nd round and forgot they still had to play the 2nd round, but they didn’t really play well at all across the board
