Hello, fellow hfboards user. I feel like I can label you as the most famous general of the Leafs army. Could he and did he? Like is this what you were sold on? Did you really expect to wonder with baited breath during like year ten whether Kid Kyle could do it? I mean maybe that rookie goalie goes Dryden. Happens all the time, right? :laugh:
Bit lost in the sauce last night?
 
Want the Leafs to play the Bruins in the 1st round just so they can finally get over that hump. They seem a lot less dangerous without Rask and Chara. Swayman looks beatable in a series. No doubt a tough series but think we take it.
We should have taken the last 2, and probably would have if Kadri had a brain
 
Calling him dirty for the hit he gave Hall too.

Lyubushkin could have drove him hard through the numbers. It was borderline. Did not deserve the response, and Pastrnak's was worse. That was right in the numbers and he had more than enough time to let up.

EDIT: Nevermind, that was a clean hit by Lyubushkin. Clearly drove him in the side after Hall was turning around.
Yeah, Lyubushkin couldn't let Hall get by, but didn't completely destroy him even if he could. Hall put himself in the bad position with his spin. Lyubushkin didn't follow trough that hit at all, because it could have been really bad for Hall. Price for that was sucker punch to the head. Preventing concussion and busted shoulder from Hall to getting concussed.
 
Holy the main boards are f***ing insufferable. 90% of people saying boosh deserves a suspension more than hall. There's 0 point ever trying to discuss the leafs there's because everyone just has a raging hater boner and refuse to have a logical unbiased discussion about something. They're like a bunch of 13 year olds.

Lol I remember back in 2020 when the season suddenly ended and Matthews missed the rocket by one goal, if you said Matthews is a better goal scorer than pasta you were an idiot and a troll. Look how that has played out. Pasta hasn't even been close to sniffing another rocket while Matthews continues to lead the league in goal scoring.

Funny thing is if you watch the relay, Hall did a shoulder check, saw Boosh coming and then started to turn away to try and avoid being hit.

He intentionally put himself in that position knowing he had a defender coming towards him.
 
Im not leafs or bruins fan, just curious, why all the f bombs?

Deeply seated insecurities and pain from playing Boston in many first round playoffs and losing "Maple Leafs" style - blowing 4-1 leads in third periods in a spectacular fashion, blowing series leads, blowing elimination games (for us and them).

Edit: Also, Bruins play pretty dirty.

Again, I'll definitely take the win. It was an excellent effort, against a team that is really stingy defensively.

But I maintain that I'll believe the Leafs can handle the Bruins in a playoff series, when they actually get by them. As we've learned in recent years, the more talented team (which I believe we are) can be neutralized pretty effectively in a playoff series. Style of play + whistles being swallowed, can be pretty powerful.

More penalties get called in the playoffs than regular season.

More infractions are committed, and more infractions are missed, but on average there are more penalties called per game.

Pastrnak is the third wheel of his line. He’s a good player but it’s been shown consistently that he does not drive the play on his line it’s Bergeron and Marchand.

To explain the massive difference between Matthews and Pastrnak:

Even if Matthews goes on a 109 game streak (to equal the number of games Pastrnak has played) where he doesn’t score a single goal, he would still have more goals than Pastrnak has right now.

How? Bruins player was holding his stick, that should have been clear cut penalty for Boston.


I’m beginning to get strong conspiracy vibes about Bruins and the refs. Only half joking. Yes I’m complaining. I was watching that play and was amazed they called Holl. Clear holding the stick penalty to the Bruin. Caused him to fall putting him in a vulnerable position then took a shot off the noggin. A lawyer would have a hayday with that.

It's the same thing on any discussion board. Read the comment section on the tsn or sports net Facebook page

They keep saying it was a dirty crosscheck by Boosh......their lack of comprehension as to what a crosscheck is boggles my mind.

Bunch of fake tough guys who act like a sucker punch is no biggie
 
McAvoy running around all night when the game was out of hand, really sneaky head shot on Gio at the end of the game. Would love to see someone lay him out..

Bruins fans awfully smug for losing to a team playing its third string goalie and 4 defensemen.
.. but that is a Bruins fan, not very bright. Denial is a common character trait in that fan base. For them sportsmanship is a just the name of a boat in the Baaaaaastan Haaaaaaaarrrrbar..

They are use to the ref calling everything in their favor and nothing against them, when the rare chance a ref has the stones to call a PIM on a Bruin their fans lose their mind. They are a bunch of entitle little whiny beoytches ... Marchand attacks Tavares, cross checking him 3 times, once after the whistle and then mouths off to the ref and their fans lose their shit when RatBoy gets a misconduct... kinda shows their lack of basic understanding of the game.

Hall sucker punches Lyush from behind, takes him out of the game and all Hall gets is a 2 min? How is attacking a player from their blind side and injuring them not a match and a game... oh that's right different rules for Bruins. Hall should get at least a game suspension for that cowardly intent to injure.

The play where Holl was injured, that is sneaky as F, the Bruin had Holls stick tied up then took out his feet, its a subtle sneaky dirty play but I have no doubt that Bruin had intent to knock Holl down, then the other Bruin drills a puck at Holls head... WTF?

Coincidence the Bruins took out our top two right handed d-men? Knowing how dirty that team is .. makes you think.

The B in their logo stands for whiney Beoytch....

but that is a Bruin, sneaky, dirty, reckless, cheater, the ref's have zero interest in losing their jobs, if you call an honest game Jacobs will make sure you are gone.

I remember not so long ago when he use to hide behind Chara, I bet if you grabbed him he'd turtle... dude is a coward...
