Too bad it's not in Tampa so Matthews can tea bag the Bolts logo at center ice after we beat them tonight.

 

[BallardEra]

Need the first goal tonight. Change the narrative.

 

[Stolie the Goalie]

Didn't watch Game 7 last year and I'm not going to watch this one either but I hope they win.

 

[Rob Brown]

Didn't watch Game 7 last year and I'm not going to watch this one either but I hope they win.

Maybe you should watch then?

GLG

 

[TheGreatOne11]

Short, simple, concise. I like it.

Just get that W.

Can't be passive tonight

I say we trade our Leaf baby for the pens baby before the game, we need to come out with THIS level of passion

 

[authentic]

Didn't watch Game 7 last year and I'm not going to watch this one either but I hope they win.

Please watch. How could you rid yourself of the opportunity to witness an epic win against the defending champions and our first time advancing past the first round since 2004 (which was also our last game 7 on home ice). Promise me now, and prove it during game time with a couple comments on what's happening.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Harken back to Carolina in 2019 taking out the then reigning SC champs in round 1 in a game 7. Leafs can be that team. They are still young, hungry, and possibly poised to do some special things.

 

[Leafs87]

I want to be excited but the nervousness has taken over. Hopefully the boys don’t feel the same way

 

[leafsfan5]

Last time we won a round I was in diapers. I'm beginning my Masters in the fall

Please, please, please get this done. Please. I'm so f***ing sick of losing

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Reverse song vibes for tonight. Although this should be our teams anthem if they blow it tonight.

 

[wingman75]

Woke up with positive vibes.

The boys know exactly what each one of them has to do. They also know, they are the better team.

Time to put up or shut up once and for all!! GO LEAFS GO

 

[Palio]

The Leafs must come out ready to play from the moment the puck drops. They’ve spotted Tampa the lead far too many times. Come out strong and keep the crowd in it from the start. The home crowd has been fantastic. Keep that advantage

 

[Torontonian]

God just win please for the love of god.. and hopefully a non stressful way to win would be even better.

Hate to be so negative, but we all have far too much experience with the lows of game 7's (or game 5), and after the way they let us down after game 6, I can only see myself not looking forward to the Doom and Gloom tonight. Don't know what time it'll be, will they show up like they did in game 4 where it was all over in 10 minutes or will they show up like they did in game 1 or will it go right to the end like games 5 and 6.

Will they have another series-deciding, 3rd period no-show (already have 4 straight). Will they choke up a huge 3rd period lead again. Will the game be decided on a phantom call (like in game 6) or an intentionally-missed call on the other side as in many years past including 2013 (and of course Gretzky on Gilmour in 93). Sorry but that's our experience for too long and although I've been a die-hard fan since 78, I forgot how to feel otherwise after game 7.

.Bruh the mindset has to be different.

There are only 2 possible outcomes.

1) Win and advance
2) Lose and season ends


Playing nervous hoping things fall into place is playing loser hockey and playing to lose. Might as well play absolutely FEARLESS hockey. If you lose then you lose at least you give yourselves a chance to advance. Playing nervous gives you what? NOTHING!

Just go out there execute and play fearless hockey. Come what may.

 

[Westlander]

I’m not decided but I may get up at 1am for this one and watch it live instead of tomorrow. They have what it takes this time, everyone just needs to execute. That, and the hockey gods owe us FFS!

 

[napoleon in rags]

Leafs now paying only $76 on $100... dropped from $80 on $100. What do the bookies know...?

I agree, I’m just saying they’re shown nervousness in these kinda games historically

I have been a die-hard fan since I was ~5 years old. So 26 years, less than you. I am seriously debating not watching tonight, even though in my opinion this has been the best series that we have played in the last 26 years I have been watching.

Like you, the history is too great to ignore. The sad thing is, until the clock hits 0 and the Leafs win, my brain will think "Leafs gonna blow it". And if we do win, the win will barely move me out of the stressed, anxiety, negative expectation headspace lol. So why put my body through this.

If they play nervous then it just goes on to show they have learned absolutely nothing. There is nothing to be gained playing nervous. Like you said, playing nervous in game 7s have gotten them nothing but a 1st round exits.

Its gotta change. Mindset has gotta change. Just go out and f***ing kill these cheaters who need to cheat either with the cap or have to bendover for the refs so refs can help them.

F all of that. Leafs have gotta go out there and pounce on these bitches from the puck drop. Period!

Maybe you should put Tampa's crest where the Florida crest is and say that you wanna see that tonight.
