Stanley Cup Playoffs - Round 1 - Gm 5. Bolts @ Leafs; 7:30 pm EST | ESPN2, Sportsnet, CBC, TVA Sports

[LeHab]

Campbell with another big one. He’s held the Leafs in.

Was not the sharpest early but has since allowed Leafs to hang in there.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

McDonnaugh with a great block.

And we traded him away for a used towel… holy crap what a rip off. Esp considering he helped to beat us in the finals last year

 

[snowkiddin]

Yeah, I am still not saying they are biased, but they should have called it immediately.

Agreed, the dive should’ve been called. But dives are rarely ever called in the NHL (playoffs or regular season)

 

[robertocarlos]

AM should shoot better. Did his stick break?

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

"The other team's getting all the calls."
"My team finally got a call but it wasn't fast enough."

 

[JimmyApples]

Leafs have 5 power plays and 8 shots

 

[snowkiddin]

Dang what a nice play by Blackwell there

 

[Leaf Fans]

Agreed, the dive should’ve been called. But dives are rarely ever called in the NHL (playoffs or regular season)

Nah, we didn't deserve a 2 man advantage. Calling the trip is enough.

 

[PhysicalGraffiti]

I didn't think I could hate NHL officiating more than I do with their constant breaking up of every fight.

Then this series happened...

 

[PaulD]

Hey what's going on????.......almost 2 minutes going by without a penalty call ???

 

[Divine]

Leafs are turning it on

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Game got exciting

 

[wonton15]

Leafs finally woke up

 

[Frosty415]

All Leafs this period

 

[zeke]

Hey we're playing hockey again.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Paul could have drawn a couple penalties there

 

[Mikeshane]

Tampa Bay got the machine gun fire turnovers going.

 

[Strangle]

When they let these teams play, there’s some really good hockey that results.

Great back and forth

 

[PoutineSp00nZ]

Leags have been buzzing since the powerplay goal.

Making a game of it

 

[VivaLasVegas]

Agreed, the dive should’ve been called. But dives are rarely ever called in the NHL (playoffs or regular season)

Yeah, I don't think I've personally seen a dive called in real time all year.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

TB is so bipolar.

 

[JadedLeaf]

TB is so bipolar.

Both of these teams are. Making the series extra bipolar

 

[snowkiddin]

Yeah, I don't think I've personally seen a dive called in real time all year.

What I don’t get is when they do call diving they almost always take the other guy for tripping/interference too …

 

[Mickey Marner]

The game is much more exciting when the players, not the refs, are the stars of the show. Imagine that

 

[Leaf Fans]

He's worth every penny

Yeah, but you have to admit that he hasn't looked goot in these playoff, but he can still be difference maker.
