Post-Game Talk: Leafs lose 4-3 OT in game 5

[Ray Mercer]

This was a classic case of karma. There was a lot of Galchenyuk hype the last week but there’s a reason why 4 teams in the last couple of years have given him the boot.

 

[LeafGrief]

Time to put the Leafs in a little box in the back of my brain, not to be touched until Saturday. Not worth spending the next 45 hours furious about this. f***in hell I'm mad right now though.

 

[sxvnert]

Game#7 locked and loaded again.

 

[saffronleaf]

It was the curse of Babcock. He picked Willy to score in OT.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

This storyline is getting really f***ing tiring.

Can 34 and 16 step the f*** up already? Honestly Game 6 is going to be hard to watch. They better not f*** it up

 

[dubey]

Bell Center is gonna be packed for game 6, keep that in mind.

2500 fans. Let’s stick to facts please

2500 P-A-C-K-E-D

Keep that in mind

 

[Mitch Matthews]

When are the 11 million dollar boys planning on showing up?

They won't. They never do

 

[wingman75]

Oh come on, this isn't even close.

This is how it starts man...

The best indicator of the future is the past.

Hope to fckng God I am wrong.

 

[Raym11]

deserved loss. Marner and Matthews need to look alive before they deserve another win on everyone elses back


Not sure how Nylander isnt getting more time, and Kerfoot. Swap Galchenyuk and Hyman see if they can get some life up there and put all the speed with Nylander.

 

[Leaf4Life]

Matthews and Marner no shows... wtf man

 

[Gallagbi]

no it wasn’t the right play, he didn’t have to pinch there. We had numbers back if he just stayed at the blue line. It was unnecessary honestly

Were covered and keep possession. Someone else's mistake doesn't change his correct decision.

Pucks out if he doesn't pinch. Instead he draws down his Fwd, we retain possession and then Gally forces an unnecessary pass

 

[stakesishigh]

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

 

[Azail]

lol. that's honestly how i see it playing out.
note: i'm a pessimist

We are all Leafs fans. Are there optimists among us?

 

[Superstar]

I’ll never understand what Galchenyuk was thinking there. That’s the most brain dead pass I’ve seen in a long time.

That pass should never happen...even if it makes it to Muzzin, he's got no time before being closed in by a Hab.

 

[Cpt Maple Leaf]

The Leafs always find a way to break their fan's heart in the most spectacular way. I've seen 48 years of shit but this tops it all. You know this will be the turning point to losing this series.

This team is cursed and nothing will change it. They always find a way to let us down

This is so true. They are f***ing cursed and that is the fact.

 

[meefer]

Still up 3-2.
3 errors, three goals. That can be improved. Sandin will be gone, perhaps Galch as well, especially if Foligno is feeling better.
Matthews and Marner will not be completely shut down often, I see a bounce back game from 1 or both of them.
Keefe needs to find a way to play Nylander more.
The boys need to support Jack Campbell after this one. It was not on him, and the final goal was a solid and expected goal, well played by Montreal.
Btw, it's great to see Morgan playing so well.

Disappointing outcome after rallying from being down 3-0, but Price was great, we hit a crossbar, we've got the 3 most dangerous players in the series and only one of them is playing to expectations. Bring in Dermott, I'm thinking Nick will be in for Chucky, keep Jack in net and let's close this thing out in game 6.

Go Leafs Go!

 

[saffronleaf]

This is going to game 7. Not looking good.

 

[Kurtz]

A lot of...how shall I put this gently...losers in this thread. You little ladies afraid of 2k Habs fans in game 6?

We got this. Put Dermott back in there, hopefully Foligno can tape himself together for a game, and Leafs in 6.

 

[IPS]

I said after game one that the Leafs would lose this series. After this chokefest and our first line being invisible all series long... it's done as far as I'm concerned.

These players can't handle the pressure and choke every f***ing season. It's the same f***ing shit.

I'd be willing to do an account bet if you're down.

 

[Le Cobra]

see yall on saturday night im too pissed to post about this game FRAK

 

[keonsbitterness]

How the HELL do you let a 2 on 0 happen like that in OT??!!?!??!

Typically a bad turnover.

 

[Cleetus]

There’s no way they win game 6 with their fans in the building. This is going to 7.

all 2500 of them lol

 

[wingman75]

You think they lose this series?

I do

 

[Aashir]

Gally f***ed up one play while creating dozens of others.

This is what sucks, he had a wicked game, but that error is gonna be a giant stain over all of it

 

[egd27]

yup nothing wrong with the pinch, it was Gally's pass that was wrong....

Should I stop work on the statue the Board ordered after last game?
