GDT: GDT: ECSF: (A1) Toronto Maple Leafs vs (A3) Florida Panthers - GAME 1 - 8 PM EST IN TORONTO

[Raging Bull]

Losing to a non call truly would suck

Feel bad for panthers fans

Poor Panthers fans.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Elliott I love Leafs Friedman going on about Bennett. Pffft get lost u tool.

He is just explaining Stolarz being taken out after the game and wondered if the DoPS will have a look at the Bennet head shot.

 

[Auston Marlander]

No quit in this Panthers team. They lost this one, but Toronto had better come with their best game, every game. Hopefully they don't, haha.

It's the playoffs, bringing your best every game is what all teams need to do if they want to win a series

Florida is going to win it on clichés is it

 

[Catscountry40]

Panthers started slow, Bob had a bad game, we got hosed on a couple calls and the Leafs hardly won at home.

And Eklblad returns.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

Leafs having no response to Bennett was disappointing

 

[Transplanted Caper]

The only thing that matters is the final score. Go Leafs.

 

[Crazy Monkey]

I would be shocked if Matthews doesn't need wrist surgery after the season. His shot velocity is down 20MPH from last season.

He is 100% off and injured but that was a wide open net from just outside the blue line.

But has it been confirmed it was concussion protocol?

He could just say it was bad sushi so that he can play.

No team with any decency should let a player with an active concussion play, especially a goalie

Like the non call elbow to Stolarz's head?

Somehow, I don't feel bad.

That long? Matthews last year?

 

[MikeS24]

I'm pulling for the Panthers but honestly happy to see the Leafs close out the win now, it seems like comebacks are the norm now, and those tickets in Toronto must be insanely expensive

Do the people by the glass just go to the game straight after work? Or hang out downtown then go?

Or do these guys actually put on suits and go lol

 

[TheKrebsCycle]

I was wrong. Bennett took our starting Goalie instead

Didn’t look to be a super damaging blow but wasn’t looking to good on the bench

 

[GrumpyKoala]

Are you not entertained?!?

 

[I Hate Blake Coleman]

Matthews has been injured all year. If that doesn't show it nothing does.

This is ALWAYS the excuse. What's it this time, his shoulder? His wrist? Put the bastard on LTIR.

 

[MoreMogilny]

Leafs having no response to Bennett was disappointing

More disappointing that the refs allowed that to happen. This is exactly what he does and the league doesn’t bother

 

[Auston Marlander]

There’s no path for him to return for game 2.

How so? If he is cleared he is cleared.

it's the Matthews effect on fan fashion

 

[The don godfather]

Big question will leafs have any bodies left if they somehow miraculously win in the next series.? That's why I have canes going through.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Ekblad back game 2 will help Florida for sure .They will wear Leafs down just watch and see.

[/QUOTE]
They might. Florida is a good team.

 

[Leafsfan74]

Panthers can't bully the Leafs anymore, but they can sure injure a goalie.

Here are the heaviest teams in the NHL this year. So hit away, it wont achieve as intended.

 

[Brookbank]

Matthew Knies is getting an offer sheet

 

[Korpse]

But has it been confirmed it was concussion protocol?

He could just say it was bad sushi so that he can play.

It probably will never be publicly announced as a concussion. Teams and the league are extremely hesitant to divulge that information. Only way I see it being called a concussion publicly is if Toronto feels to has to pressure the league for a suspension. Make no mistake though it’s a concussion and behind the scenes it’s being treated as such.

 

[Auston Marlander]

oh god.. do you actually believe stolarz is better than bobrovski?

In this game..over this season...yes he has been.

In the 1st round they had identical stats.

 

[Rhaegar Targaryen]

More disappointing that the refs allowed that to happen. This is exactly what he does and the league doesn’t bother

Not denying that. But no one even gives him a face wash the rest of the game

Yeah Matthew's last year got Lindsay finalist + seller finalist + rocket

Marner is probably top 10 this year for srlke when the release the voting
