Post-Game Talk: Leafs Beat Panthers and Clinch a Playoff Spot 3-2

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Marner was awesome in the third. Stolarz was also clutch.

 

[Strangle]

Panthers falling apart

 

[MK78]

Huge f'n win. Massive. Great win boys

 

[PromisedLand]

Leafs hold on to the lead at the end there..... and 2 points in regulation!

 

[leafsfan5]

Big win, it'll come down to us and TB

 

[Stephen]

That was a tight playoff style win, they can add that to the Kings game to their muscle memory. Panthers missing Barkov and Tkachuk though, that team is going to be a menace.

 

[PanniniClaus]

My hate just grows for the Panthers. Want nothing to do with them in round 1,

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Stolie was solid, 2nd line as well.
Regulation win was key.

 

[1specter]

Good win. Now sweep Florida state next week please.

 

[robertmac43]

If we blew that I would have been so pissed.

 

[Confucius]

Leafs Nation after this one!

marner was great in the third

core 4 led the way with stolarz right behind them

one nitpick for me: AM-MM as a unit on the PK...I don't like it, and it doesn't seem effective. They just give up way too much and get scored on once a game, we need a different look or to reduce their minutes on the PK

we beat a broken florida team, but 2 points is 2 points so whatever

onto the autoloss vs CBJ

Kulikov and Ekbkad too.

One thing's for sure, we will not get any favourable reffing against them

 

[TheDoldrums]

Terrible night, our best defenseman who has had concussion issues was run by a goddamn ref and had to leave the game

 

[MSZ]

Marner showed up in the 3rd. Matthews had a low energy game. A healthy Panthers team would've won this game easily.

 

[DarkKnight]

Huge win, 4 clear of the Panthers. Looks like TB is the bigger threat.

Stolarz was fantastic.

Second line was dominant, all of them. Marner stepped up all over ice when it mattered, good sign.

Domi continues to look noticeable, bodes well.

 

[mikeyz]

Mitch Marner showing up in a big game??? Am I living in an alternate reality???

What's next? @Evilhomer making a correct prediction?

Jenaya on Twitter hating Tavares?

What world am I living in???

 

[Kiwi]

Did what we had to, got the result
Tough game but we did enough when it counted the most

Proud of the boys, this is going to go down to the wire but we've made a great start

Paul Maurice needs to be humbled. Never seen such a fake modest, pretentious, philosophizing, asshole head coach.... He was a complete p***y way back when he coached the Leafs.
