im ready for stutzlop

That guy is either a diver or too soft for the NHL. I think it’s a little bit of both where he’s so timid he falls to avoid getting hurt. If Mathew’s and Marner can’t beat him they should consider a different career.

50/50 series, this is going 7

Ottawa looks great going into the playoffs and so do the Leafs. It’s going to be close, I STILL dont trust this core, so hoping they finally pull it off.

The Leafs stir the drink around here. Without us, HF would probably shut down.

Anyone come up with a playoff avatar theme/design?

Something with nostalgic vibes back to the heyday of the early 2000's would be cool

My prediction is if the Leafs can get past the sens, and swerve the Panthers in the 2nd round (Tampa wins), they will go to the Stanley Cup finals.

Agreed. That would be great.

 

[Brown Dog]

This is hockey. And playoff hockey at that. It's going to be close and come down to bounces, special teams, and goaltending. Probably at least one or two OTs. Gotta win those.

Yeah round two is the mountain to climb, Bolts or Cats imo. If they get over that hill they're in good shape, the finals can be anything, one team may be more banged up than the other. Some scary teams in the West though.

I need Domi to fight Brady multiple times this series. Brady is so undisciplined, we need someone, preferably Max Domi or Max Pacioretty to challenge him by laying the body and get him to drop the gloves or take his normal dumb penalties

 

[MCR74]

The playoff board twits are so focused on past playoff failures. This isn't the same team or the same coach. If the Leafs figure it out, it won't be a cakewalk for Ottawa. "But Tkachuk!". Who cares? He can be pushed off his game. When Brady is rattled, the Sens don't do shit. I can see Knies and Domi giving him a hard time.

 

[All Mod Cons]

I really hope the games are officiated fairly. The Sens lead the league in powerplays by a wide margin.

They just finished the regular season with 9 powerplays today. It takes the Leafs about a month to get that.

Gostisbehere got an abuse of officials penalty after the game for calling the refs out.

How do you even get 9 PPs in a game? I thought they just stop calling anything if you are lucky enough to get to 3.

No chance Ottawa gets it to 7 games. This is not a 50/50 series. It will be lopsided.

The Leafs are going to the Cup final no matter who they play in the East.

Domi really shouldn't fight brady unless he does something stupid

You gan agitate players without fighting. McCabe Benoit and tanev are physical at the back. We need our forwards to keep forecheckijg

Just put your glove in his face after every Wristle and make him lose his mind

This. I'm tired of being the team on the defensive when it comes to trolling. We should be the trolls! Reverse everything for these playoffs. Bizarro World. Uno Reverse. Freaky Friday. Opposite George!!

Domi is not scared of him, but it’s a bit of a mismatch. They don’t want Domi against their top line too often. Knies, on the other hand, has to be the one to keep him in check.

The Leafs have earned their reputation, especially Matthews and Marner, and until they prove differently that’s where the focus is. All signs point to it being different, but until we see how they react to being punched in the mouth, you have to at least consider the past 8 years.

You are either a genius, troll or a fool.

My advise is if you are so confident, bet on it large and cash in, instead of posting it on this board.
