It's the best thing - we're playing them even. Now this is why we pay the Core Fore: to make that crucial bit of difference. The stage is set. One of them must conjure up a flash of magic to spark the win.

If this doesn't happen, after eight years, blow it the f*** up.

Starting to be a believer in big D... no matter the outcome of this game, seeing the blocked shots, crease clearing and heavy hits being laid out every shift by the Leafs defense has been great. Edmundson laid out Pastrnak, Benoit laid out Marchand. Remember in the Dubas era we rarely had anyone willing to finish a hit and nobody cleared the crease.

I'm just so thankful there wasn't a screw job by the refs awarding the Bruins a PP. They could have given Knies one on that clean stick lift after hunchback Debrusk dove in the corner

All I could ask for is a fairly officiated game, although there's still 40 min for the screw job to come out

Lucky to come out of that period 0-0. We played alright but have played better the past two games. Need to get back to that level of play.

Come on, you HAD to have known they'd come out harder in this game. Now they're in the same boat we are; lose and go home. But we weathered it and they didn't get a ton of good looks. The only thing that makes me nervous right now is Sammy. He looked good in Game 3 until he gave up the 1-1 stinker too.

Bertz to me has been the worse forward. Yes he goes to the net but he can't make a pass it seems

That 4th line again has been good
 
Everytime Domi tries to pass to Bertuzzi, he's hanging to the side of the net short side instead of infront, or on his ass. The line does well to gain the zone but rarely ever pull off a play to create an actual good chance.

If things keep going this way, it might be time to audible up the lines.

That’s what she said

But for real it’s a huge advantage

This is most stressed I've felt in a long time.

I went for a long walk, today, and when I interacted with people along the way, I asked, "Are you gonna watch the Leaf game, tonight". Everyone, to a person, said yes - and most were pumped.

Give us one more top pairing capable guy to replace what Brodie used to bring and I think we might be on to something here.
