Post-Game Talk: LEAFS ADVANCE TO 2nd ROUND BABY!!!!

[A1LeafNation]

Kypreos has to put the negative spin on it because he had his brain smashed in one too many times.

 

[Confucius]

The good thing is we can play much better, hopefully we get hot and go on a roll.

 

[GardinerTheForward]

No lie I had a feeling like Tavares has the puck with some space he must be thinking up something slick right now and boom!

Ghosts of the game secen goal that should have been. God gave us a raincheck

 

[TakeTheBody]

Outstanding. Reilly with two black eyes reminds me of #93. The commitment of the team blocking shots, all-in. Enjoy tonight fellas. Get ready for the next round. GO LEAFS GO!!!!

 

[Guided by Veseys]

At least Keefe sat HOLL.

I'll give him that hahaha

I love you Blanche Blanche

For about two years ago I thought your avatar was of a Dominican drag queen and I was surprised by your atypical attitudes towards Dubas and political subjects given your avatar representation. About two weeks ago I zoomed in on your avatar and realized it was hot chick.

I love you Blanche Blanche

Series MVP:

It's tempting to go with 34 - he was big when it mattered - or Sammy, but the numbers weren't totally there.

It's gotta be Mo - he was the best skater period on either team for all six games.

Unsung Hero Award:

Noel Motherf***ing Acciari got a few goals, laid the body down hard and always gave 110. Bring this junkyard dawg back and do it as soon as the last whistle stops.

HM to Kucherov's coke dealer who I dunno must have been arrested or something - because that guy was nowhere to be seen. Stamkos has two cups but is historically unclutch but got them on the board when it mattered.

Missing in Action Award:

It's hard to be salty with this win and his numbers are there but just where the f*** was Willy? Best boy the last two years was a distant 6th-7th, he needs to crack down against whoever comes next.

No Holl, ever again, ever. I mean f***ing ever...I don't care how good a guy he is and how much the bys love him, this is a business and players go all the time. This is a 2-1 regulation loss with him playing.

Saltiest Fanbase Award:

-150 Edmonton +130 Vancouver.

The Opposition:

Seen Stamkos? Yeah for like a minute.

Kucherov - no good.

Vasi was extremely elite in games 5 and six but it wouldn't have come to that if he wasn't such a tire fire in 2-3-4.

I laughed when Kucherov went into the boards last game, because he's a slimy, stealth-dirty player, all-world skill or not - but not when Point took his ride in; honest, hardworking, fundamentally solid Canadian boy.

Hedman was their best D but that's expected but was only the best D in game three - Mo ate his lunch.

Sergachev even looks like a moron.

Hagel is a female sexual organ.

Tanner Jeannot...if Tampa didn't have two Cups already that's not just fireable but blacklistable.

Tampa's depth guys - Cirelli, Raddish, Killorn and Colton - were great throughout the series. Cirelli is signed but I'd love me some Alex Killorn on a fair deal and you know they're gonna keep Colton (I would).

Boston has looked human and Florida has the depth of a puddle - bring it on!

Acciari played well.

I’ll have to watch the OT again but I think He blocked the shot to get it out of their end in OT and don’t think it ever went back in, and I don’t know if Tampa had puck possession after that.

 

[Superstar]

Woot, Justin Holl the OT hero! Way to go, Keefe!

 

[Steven1562]

OMG we did it boys!!!! 19 long years man. We deserved this. A Nikolai borschevsky moment.

 

[The Best Leafs Everr]

I love you refs, for helping Leafs win for the first time.

 

[seventieslord]

Schenn: "Hey buddy good series."

Maroon: "You too Schenner"

Schenn: "You know I love you."

Maroon: "I love you too. You know it was all an act right?"

Schenn: "Of course bro"

 

[stickty111]

I'm probably more relieved then happy. The team and the fans deserve it. We haven't reached our final goal though.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

 

[Obo]

Main boards are going to be saying that Leaf fans are celebrating like they just won the Cup.

What nobody under the age of 20 will remember is that Leaf fans have always gone crazy after every series win, even back when it was a fairly regular occurrence.

Anyone recall Mike Foligno's "I'm going to Yonge Street"?

 

[Gabriel426]

We are 1-0 without Holl in the line up. Keep it rolling please. Don't let your wives fool you anymore Keefe and Dubas.

I don't miss Holl at all.

[seventieslord]

Finally got the money off our backs too. Leafs are winning the cup!

The monkey too I hope!

 

[MattySnipes]

WE DID IT FINALLY BABY

FEELS GREAT MAN!

What a game!

 

[Funk21]

We are 1-0 without Holl in the line up. Keep it rolling please. Don't let your wives fool you anymore Keefe and Dubas.

I hope that we never see Holl touch the ice again. Who was on the ice when the overtime goal was scored? That’s right Liljegren!! Knies what a beauty!!

 

[PromisedLand]

Yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaasssssssss!!!! Matthew Knies is lucky charm. He was on the ice for ALL overtime goals. And we finally have a GOALIE!

Knies made that goal happen. He was one on two near the boards and came up with the puck for JT to skate on.

Good thing Schenn didn't play the pass as he backed off it confused the F outta Tampa

 

[Bellefour20]

Since the Habs won game 5, I have been negative about this team, unimpressed until they won a round, not believing they had it in them. Tonight, instead of being negative and nervous, I was upbeat and positive the whole game. When people were down on Tavares, I said he would not only score, but he would end the series. And here we are. This is uncharted water and these guys are at the helm of their own destiny. Let's GOOOO!

 

[danron1376]

now time to make it 10 straight for series clinching games edit (extending to next season and beyond)

 

[ruaware41]

here’s my wild karma theory: we may not have looked good all game but karma is real. The commentators said that Maroon mocked Giordano basically saying a veteran player was taking a dive in reference to his hit on him last game. That’s such a classless pathetic thing to say and I’m glad he gets to home and think about his words.

 

[egd27]

Man this Knies kid is the real.deal. I couldn't be more impressed. I see a blooming Gary Roberts in four or five years.

Yea, I gotta eat some crow on this one. Knies has contributed more than I thought he would just coming from the NCAA.

 

[slozo]

ngl after the first few shots and it was obvious that Samsonov was dialed in, I felt pretty good about the odds. I still of course assumed the worse, but deep down, I could feel it. Amazing work by JT there at the end, he was mostly invisible all game but that last sequence is all that matters.

Honestly,
We've all been through . . . . a LOT.

It has been a hundred mile marathon of taking guff for remaining a loyal and loving fan.
By god son, wait til you see what we can do now, eh?

Anything is possible now.
ANY
THING

 

[Trapper]

I want Florida to win but I'm not scared of Boston

On one hand there is always revenge on beating Boston but at the same time just winning the next round is priority.
