I want the Leafs to obviously go into the playoffs with a winning mindset, but my main concern is that we don't lose anyone else to injury the rest of the way in these relatively meaningless games.

This 1000% ^^^

I literally could care less about these games, I just want the team healthy.

Yup, there’s no way any of our big guys should play the last game of the season against the Jets lol.

If we could ice the Marlies I would, no interest in the Jets taking runs at our big guys for the perceived “dirty” atrocities we did against them

Anyone excited to see Caufield's first NHL goal? :sarcasm:

On one hand, I want to see him do well because it’s kinda like an FU to all the GMs that passed on him because of his size.

On the other, when was the last time Habs fans didn’t overhype a prospect? KK, Suzuki, Poehling, Mete, and I can go on. They really aren’t a good at drafting and developing high end talent.

If they can win the next few that should pretty much get them close to clinching the division. The more points the better so the rest of the playoffs they can be a higher seed.

Of course you want to avoid injury but you can still play well and win, and be smart.

I don't care too much how the Leafs did against anyone in the regular season in the end in terms of matchups. I'd rather them play the 4th seed, then whoever wins round 2 so be it.

I don't think it's a good idea to wish for a certain opponent. Leafs just need to be ready for every single team. That's what top teams do.

You want to win a cup you have to beat some of the best teams. If you play harder teams earlier on it only gets you more prepared for the next team.
 
Caufield will score tonight thats a given. Keep it at that lol.

We clinch tonight with the help of the Sens

Sums it up well. Lock up the division with a few wins in the next week.

Really this is what we want to see in our final games:

- No injuries
- Solid 5 on 5 play at both ends
- Strong goaltending
- Improved PP
- Steady PK

Keep this team confident and rolling into the playoffs. Doesn't matter who we play, we'll hate them all the same in the end.

We really need to get the PP straightened out before the playoffs. It's so much harder to score in the playoffs, it can end up being our downfall if we can't start to convert or at the very least gain some momentum.

Hard to control injuries.
I'd say watch suspensions though
