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

[Matt24]

If so, has it worked for them in the past?

Just because it’s worked doesn’t make it any less cringe.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Tampa goons out there acting like assholes right to the end. No contest tonight

Hardly goonery if we are being honest. Minor scrums and talk.

I am shocked Tampa did so little over all. They could have easily charged around seeking hits and injury.

 

[BayStBullies]

I'll be more classy than Tampa fans and those from Canadian markets/golf courses obsessed with the Leafs. Good game, it's a series.

 

[Hank Plank]

No one died so we have that going for us.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Good game! Game three in Tampa should be great!

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

For a 4th liner, Maroon has scored some in those cup wins.

True. They didn't need him to win but he did convert a few.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Tampa looks absolutely beside themselves tonight.

Maroon crosschecking the back of someone's head into the ice is more than a minor scrum.

 

[SI90]

Total domination by the leafs from start to finish

 

[TopG]

lots of mad people on the internet tonight

 

[kwichang]

Good game all!

 

[Skolman]

Just because it’s worked doesn’t make it any less cringe.

Would you rather be "cringe" and win Stanley Cups, or be a whiny Leafs fan and not win a cup since 67?

He smacked the stick right out of the defenders hands.

Thats a slash.

Slashing with the front of his stick going against the grain? Looked like he was pushing the stick out of the way and the defender let it go.

Usually slashes aren't even called unless the stick breaks, let alone a forward push with the toe of the stick

 

[pcruz]

He smacked the stick right out of the defenders hands.

Thats a slash.

Sounds eerily familiar


I think that guy wearing 10 in white may have done that a few times to the goalie in blue.
Is that some sort of infraction?
I wasn't sure.

 

[snowkiddin]

Tampa split on the road so I’m sure they’re happy, probably not so giddy about this game though lol

All the pressure is on Toronto

 

[Pablo El Perro]

True. They didn't need him to win but he did convert a few.

Didn't need it, but he's helped win a series or two, at least one against the Panthers.

 

[AvroArrow]

Pure domination, damn Tampa looked bad out there. Tampa looks like they're in some serious trouble with the injuries piling up.

Also never in my life have I seen players whine and cry that much in the penalty box because fans are bullying them what the f*** are Perry and Maroon doing, absolute clowns lmao

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

Hedman is going in Game 3 even if he is only at 50%. No chance he misses another game.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Slashing with the front of his stick? Looked like he was pushing the stick out of the way and the defender let it go.

Usually slashes aren't even called unless the stick breaks, let alone a toe pick with the stick

Them not being called usually doesnt change that it was a slash.

90% of hooks and interferences dont get called too.

 

[Nikki Potnick]

And marron had as much to do with that as the Stick Boy.

Good one? Scored a Game 7 OT goal, but sure, stick boy or whatever.

 

[Edgelord]

ok this was a good win but WTF are we going to see in game 3? should be a close game right? no way every game is a blow out 1 way or the other

 

[All Mod Cons]

Tampa split on the road so I’m sure they’re happy, probably not so giddy about this game though lol

All the pressure is on Toronto

Pressure is all on Tampa. They've got home ice advantage. Leafs are huge underdogs now.

There may be a Nobel Prize in this for you…way to go Sire…..

 

[AvroArrow]

Waiting for the inevitable Jon Cooper cry baby post game interview "We let them win" or some bullshit like this again

 

[34]

Tampa looks discombobulated.
