[ER89]

Mitch is lucky we won tonight. f***ing no show with his dumbass cross crease passes to the shins was on full show tonight.

Woll needs to check in stolarz been dogshit for three straight games

 

[sxvnert]

Patches: 1 goal, 1 assist, 7 hits

 

[HockeyVirus]

This is our f***ing year. f*** everyone who doubts this team. Going to send Florida packing the same way we did with Tampa.

 

[Daisy Jane]

Tender battle. We are huge underdogs that way

[LeafEgo]

Willy was big this game but a little disengaged games 3-5.

Disengaged in game 4? lol

Looking forward to seeing him engaged.

 

[Stephen]

Think it was still Stolarz even though he was leaking a little bit.

Leafs are going to be in deep vs Florida, but also think Tampa turned out to be a lot weaker than we had thought going down the stretch.

 

[sxvnert]

Even steven.

This is probably the best team we face on route to a cup. No series is easy but if they win this they can win the ECF

No doubt. Florida is a nightmare, but they do have weaknesses. Hopefully Berube can come up with a good game plan to attack those weaknesses. Let's not concede the series to Florida just yet. Let's see what happens. We better strap in for a wild ride, I think.

 

[AvroArrow]

Tkachuk is playing injured
Barkov likely is somewhat injured

That's their top 2 guys. If there was ever a time we were going to beat the Panthers, it's this year.

My only concern is Bennett and Marchand running wild trying to injure guys. Lay the body on those little f***ers early and fully expecting Knies to make Bennett his bitch this series. No chance he forgot about that dirty hit, or as Panthers fans like to say "tangled up" that concussed him.

Take it to these guys early and punish them, finish every check and keep laying the body on them. They're playing banged up, make life miserable for them.

If this Leafs team ramps up to beat Florida and stays healthy in the process the sky is the limit. That’s a big test. I think we just go in like a major underdog and just chip away one game at a time.

I would guess they won’t go into the series like in 2023.

 

[Action Jackson]

M. Tkatchuk is playing injured apparently.

Ekblad will be suspended also for game 1

Look at the reaction of the bench and team vs 2023. 2023 round 1 was our cup. This team is focused

 

[Anthrax442]

We will get smoked

 

[Maple Leaf]

We will get smoked

Leafs can win this ez

 

[sxvnert]

Hoping for a 6-7 game series but the Panthers are f***in killers.

I think the best team is Vegas, and the Leafs will play them in the Cup final, as I have said all along.

I dont know which Leafs team you have been watching the past 30 years, but nothing is "EZ" about them

 

[Jojalu]

I voted Benoit because even though the Leafs were good in gamea 1-3 and the core was scoring, it takes that extra guy to step up. He did both game 2 and 3 and if he didn't, who knowa what happens.

Core 4 stat wise all had good series.

Nylander 3g 5 a
Marner 1g 7a
Matthews 2g 4a
Tavares 3g 2a.

Really can't ask for more. Except I will. Do it again against Fla

 

[HolyCrap]

It happens. I leak a bit now that I’m older.

If that happens Leafs winning the cup
