Game 2 - The Comeback Story - Leafs vs Lightning 7pm EST - SN, ESPN, CBC, TVAS, BSUN

[Daximus]

Yeah screw Leaf fans for cheering for their team in the playoffs

No one said they can't cheer but they sure do let 1 game go to their heads way to often. Looooooooots of hockey left in this series.

 

[Strangle]

This Leafs core is stepping up once again. What playoff beasts they are. Tampa has no answer for them.

The only way the Leafs lose this series will be if they beat themselves … again

So it’s very possible. But as I said already, this Leaf team should be blowing the doors off of Tampa.

They’re the better team everywhere but in goal

 

[PensandCaps]

But McCabe pushing Perry is roughing.

More like hitting him in the face. They should call that all day.

 

[Leaf Fans]

At least he didn't give your 2nd best defenseman a flying elbow and a concussion.

Yeah, that is a good thing.

 

[AcerComputer]

At least he didn't give your 2nd best defenseman a flying elbow and a concussion.

His elbow was tucked. No need to embellish. TB are getting away with a ton of penalties.

You must have missed everyone calling the series over in tuesdays game day thread

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

I find Bucci to be terrible at pbp. Anyone else think so?

He's a grossly incompetent clown.

 

[Just Rude]

All it took was the other team to lose their top pair. Relax Leafs fans, if Tampa was healthy this would be going a lot differently.

Hedman gave up three goals on the first six shots? Aren’t excuses for losers?

 

[PeE eL DuBoiS]

Its the Maple Leafs it wouldn't shock me to see them lose 7-5 still.

We can and we might

 

[Vasilevskiy]

More like hitting him in the face. They should call that all day.

Gonna get flamed for saying that

 

[Mikeaveli]

Up 3-0 and still complaining about the refs lol

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Best period I've seen from the Leafs in the playoffs in awhile

 

[EmptyNetAssassin]

His elbow was tucked. No need to embellish. TB are getting away with a ton of penalties.

Lol so are the leafs. It's playoff hockey

 

[RMF5630]

Stamkos cross check. Refs looks at it but knows the score is 3-0 so he’s blind.

Yeah. You got it bad. You really need to stop seeing everything as a "victim". It is not healthy.

Look at the positives, Bunting and Co was successful and the Bolts lost their blue line. So you will walk easily to a win. You should feel good. Not constantly think everyone is out to get you. All is good in Toronto tonight. Hockey, Labatts, not just need some girls in sweaters. Be positive.

 

[Maple Leaf]

They cannot compete without zebras help

 

[paul9kariya]

never one to really jump on reffing, but the leafs are getting hit with some pretty lame calls and some brutal non-calls, and that maroon hit on holl is a good example. holy.

 

[HarrisonFord]

This game is not going well

Depends who you ask

 

[Matt24]

The Leafs fans need to stop whining about the refs and the Lightning fans need to stop acting like their team isn’t going to stir the pot at the end of this game if it’s ending in a blowout. Call it like it is.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Don't cry when you your players happily entered goon city.

The only way to compete against cheap shot artists like the Lightning is to retaliate.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Best period I've seen from the Leafs in the playoffs in awhile

Game 1 last year they were much better than this.

 

[Kranix]

Best period any team has ever played.

 

[HockeyVirus]

No one said they can't cheer but they sure do let 1 game go to their heads way to often. Looooooooots of hockey left in this series.

What if I told you Leaf fans hope isn't based on that period or game but the past 82

 

[Skolman]

His elbow was tucked. No need to embellish. TB are getting away with a ton of penalties.

Do you guys ever stop crying about the refs?

My god

 

[dukeofjive]

Is it the day drinking or just kids posting, cause damn these threads are a gold mine for insecurity.

 

[hockeyisgud]

Lol I just had to double check I wasn't on the Leafs board with all the Leafs fans that just showed up.

I'm a total Leafs hater but I still picked them in 6. Tbf I'm also a Tampa hater.

Every fanbase does this there's just more of them so it's more noticable
