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

[Tobias Kahun]

Well the refs determined it wasn't this game.

However, at the end of the game they didn't want the Leafs to run up the score so I get it.

If the game is tied and not 5on3, that doesnt get called.

Still doesn't mean its not a penalty/slash.

 

[Nostradumbass]

Congrats Toronto, you managed to overcome the extremely biased Toronto-hating refs this game.

 

[Pablo El Perro]

Holy man. Another game of awful calls in favour of Tampa. Both Knies penalties were an absolute sham. McCabe on Perry was also a complete joke.

Somebody needs to say something.

Saying something doesn't accomplish anything. Tampa, traditionally, gets calls. Just got to kill them like the Leafs did tonight.

 

[All Mod Cons]

Ridiculous take. Leafs are the better team and Tampa dealing with a bunch of injuries to top players.

Oh yeah. Leafs definitely better than the Cup finalists the last 3 years and twice winners. Wtf?

 

[Erik Alfredsson]

Meh. It's just the way the game goes. Obviously don't want to see an injury. You do want me to repeat myself. Haha.

Is this supposed to be me? HA! GOOD ONE! I actually have a tremendous respect for the game, would NEVER wish injury on a player!

And now you've made me repeat it FOR A THIRD TIME!!!!

 

[FrozenJagrt]

It's almost like this series consists of two really good teams playing a best-of-7 and one game doesn't tell the whole story either way.

It wasn't Wes McCauley or Chris Lee, the other officials are all fine.

 

[pcruz]

I don't know what you watch, but knocking the stick out of someone's hand is pretty much an automatic call..

Are you sure?

SN just showed Kucherov come out from behind the goal line, slash Samsonov's stick down out of his hands and skate away.

Maybe the NHL should hire you to teach the refs what is an automatic penalty then.

 

[AcerComputer]

TB fans thought they were gonna win 7-4 after being down 4-1. Hilarious!

You're trying way too hard, calm down man.

Ok. This is getting a bit weird now.

They probably should.

 

[pcruz]

At least Kutcherov didn't kick anyone.

Don't give him ideas.

He nearly got Marner last time, just hit him with the top of the boot.

Maybe he gets the foot bent enough to show the blades next time.

 

[FinnLightning26]

Until the next time you lose.

 

[AvroArrow]

So when is Jeannot coming back?

Heard it was over for the Leafs when Jeannot comes and bullies them

Somehow the softest team in the league that doesn't hit anyone and are all p***yes, is physically dominating Tampa and injuring all their players.

 

[LivingRentFree]

You’re not wrong, but like. Where does it end? They are literally allowed to get away with murder. But McCabe gets called for getting rid of Perry after he snows the goalie?

It’s legitimately embarrassing for the league.

 

[AvroArrow]

Until the next time you lose.

just take the L and move on, right that's what you guys preached ? It's embarrassing.

 

[Ezekial]

[Divine]

I genuinely cannot believe Toronto paid less for RoR at 25% cap hit than Tampa did for Jeannot

 

[HomelessPepper]

F***
You
Tampa
*clap*
*clap*
*clap clap clap*

 

[All Mod Cons]

Isn't Toronto technically the favorite?

Not in my opinion. Tampa is a dynasty in my books. And the Leafs haven't won a playoff series in ages. I see no reason the Leafs should be favourites.

 

[authentic]

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

If this was the Leafs players instead could you imagine the outrage? Instead it's a bunch of unclassy Leafs fans.

Big friggin babies

Pray for Corey Perry, nobody should be bullied like this

It doesn't end, imo. The Red Wings got away with it for years, veteran plays. Of course, a Wings fan would say otherwise, and I expect a Bolts fan would too. Teams just need to realize those calls aren't going their way and play through it.
