This is the best Leafs team I have seen in my lifetime.

To put up a performance like this without Muzzin, Nylander, and Kase says it all. The depth is insane and they are incredibly hard to stop when they're on.

This team has everything to go deep especially if Campbell is firing on all cylinders.
 
Love Tampa fans though. They're one of the few boards where I read that if the Leafs are playing well, they acknowledge it with no backhanded compliments. One guy even said that "the Leafs are playing like how we should be playing".

Side note, Campbell playing that calm against a divisional opponent is huge IMO. I think the Giordano signing as well as Lyub actually being a net front clearing presence is huge for him.
Refreshing... Why are people on other teams such trolls. Give credit where credit is due, despite your teams fortune. You wait, we play the almighty Panthers tomorrow back to back road games when they are rested and if we lose the main boards will say same old leafs and panthers are better.

Same you know what, different day...

Beat them tomorrow boys... let's get first!

Oilers fans are so bitter it's not even funny

Something is really wrong in their water
They are a loser fanbase. It is more important for them to have everyone collectively fellate McDrai and win individual trophies than it is to actually win the cup

I can understand nucks fan hating in Toronto at least. They have a nice city. But jets and oilers fans are a special kind of stupid trolling Toronto and the city.
 
We really did draft two future hall of famers in consecutive years. Matthews and Marner are so special.

Also nice to hear Keefe praise Engvall in his comments, said he was our best player early. Him being scratched feels like a long time ago now.

I've said it earlier but I'll say it again, Engvall is making me eat some serious crow. He's essential on the third line and the PK. Love me some Giraffe.
 
I never thought I would see a better goal scorer than Ovechkin in my life, but here we are...
The coolest thing about Matthews is that he’s not a one trick pony.

Greasy goals - Check
Laser wristers - Yup
Dekes - You Bet
Wrap around - Uh huh
One time clapper - All day
Power Play - Si
Empty Netters - Ya, a couple.
Curl n Drag - Best in the game
Quick release - Yes sir
 
Feels good man.
Didn't get to watch much at all, busy with the boy; but I was on top of this game, listening on radio, keeping track of c=score when I could, watching last 6 minutes . . . impressive REG SEASON win. (highlighted for a reason and it doesn't need to get repeated).

Matched up excellently tonight - main takeaway was:
- Campbell is BACK baby!
- Matthews and Marner are kings with keys to the city
- Leafs are deep.
 
Great win. Campbell made some big saves when needed but we played really well. What can you say about Matthews and Marner?
Abruzzese had a good improvement game. Also Lilly can't come out. That pair is too good to break up. One thing that gives me confidence he won't is he played a regular PK role today, while I think Lyb's only PK shift was near the end of the game and that might have to with Gio in the box.

What a game.

Campbell made some big saves, probably got lucky with a few chances but he was good.
