GDT: Game 5 | Leafs @ Bruins | COME BACK BEGINS - WAKE UP EDITION | Tuesday, Apr. 30 7 p.m. EST | Leafs trail series 1-3

[horner]

yet another core comes in and fails. how many eras of failure. the gilmour era, sundin era, kessel era, matthews era. endless failure. at least i wasn't around for the many failing cores that preceded the aforementioned ones.

Gilmour gave every ounce of his body and more to win

 

[rumman]

Matthews prob has mono

Shouldn’t have kissed Timmins……..

Gilmour gave every ounce of his body and more to win

They don’t make em like that anymore……..

 

[57 Years No Cup]

"don't ask me what I think of you
I might not give the answer that you want me to........"

 

[Burnie97]

f*** sakes

 

[rumman]

The pain must be maximized, it's simply the way of things.

I can ake the pain, but I’m not delusional……..

 

[Leaf4Life]

Gilmour gave every ounce of his body and more to win

If every leaf played with half the heart Gilmour did, we'd probably have multiple cup wins at this point.

 

[Craig Button]

Gilmour gave every ounce of his body and more to win

Yeah he was good for 2 post seasons.

Then only scored 1 goal in 3 post season.

 

[BTP]

we're winning.

 

[SprDaVE]

If every leaf played with half the heart Gilmour did, we'd probably have multiple cup wins at this point.

As many as Gilmour in Toronto probably.

 

[Buds17]

I think undeniably true that Leaf fans crave wins more than the players do.

Look at us. We're animals. We will fight and cuss each other out and we're doing it for free. In fact, we pay exorbitant subscription costs to participate.

These guys have put on an embarrassing performance and some really pitiful effort levels. They believe themselves victims.

The players who have the right may not ever waive their no trade/no move clause. I assuredly will never waive mine!

 

[Clark4Ever]

Take it for what its worth just heard matthews is getting shut down by doctors bexause he’s been pissing blood

Jesus. If that's true, f*** the game. I hope he's going to be alright.

 

[Metroid]

I used to see those bus shelter ads that said if you piss blood you're f***ed (not in those words) but like call the doc ASAP.

Dude needs to walk out with a Cannibal Corpse shirt if true (ya I know he doesn't like good music)

 

[RunItBackAgain]

The players who have the right may not ever waive their no trade/no move clause. I assuredly will never waive mine!

Maybe but it makes a lot of sense for Marner to take a sign and trade because he likely wont be able to demand 12+ million at age 34 for that 8th year he can't get in UFA.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

if Matthews has anything short of a career threatening injury, he’s officially a total loser in my books.

Sitting out because you got the shits or because you have a leg injury in a career defining game, f*** that.

 

[ToneDog]

The players who have the right may not ever waive their no trade/no move clause. I assuredly will never waive mine!

So you prefer to stay where you are not wanted and sacrifice an 8th year. Luckily Mitch and his camp will want every penny, so he'll waive to the benefit of his wallet.

 

[Raging Bull]

I pissed blood at work every day for like 3 months with a stone stuck in my ureter. Now I wasn't playing hockey, but still......lol

 

[Buds17]

Maybe but it makes a lot of sense for Marner to take a sign and trade because he likely wont be able to demand 12+ million at age 34 for that 8th year he can't get in UFA.

Fair enough. I was merely suggesting that I am (we're?) not going anywhere due to being a fan of the team. Players who can potentially be traded away might not have the same level of investment in the team (which seems fair on some level).

 

[HockeyVirus]

People with this take make me roll my eyes. Obviously he is playing with those things ffs.

 

[HolyCrap]

Sitting out because you got the shits or because you have a leg injury in a career defining game, f*** that.

Or if the team or doctors kept him from playing yet he wanted too. Just another option.

 

[Torontonian]

Looks like it's going to have to be a "gutsy" performance to win.

 

[HockeyVirus]

You guys see this shit?

 

[SprDaVE]

Boston is already up 1-0

 

[Buds17]

So you prefer to stay where you are not wanted and sacrifice an 8th year. Luckily Mitch and his camp will want every penny, so he'll waive to the benefit of his wallet.

I was simply making a joke about being a fan of the team and players not necessarily having that same kind of freedom.

 

[BallardEra]

CJ just confirmed Matthews was not on the team bus . He’s officially out tonight

I saw this coming from Sunday:

Post in thread 'Toronto @ Boston -- game 5.'
Pre-Game Talk: - Toronto @ Boston -- game 5.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

No clue why people are worried about no Matthews.

We have Marner.
