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

[nucks88]

Matthews should get 5 games for trying to be tough

And 10 for that moustache……

 

[LeHab]

Refs or not this has been an entertaining game so far. Will Leafs come out hungry in the 3rd?

 

[Pink Mist]

Classy

It's the playoffs. There's no place for class in the playoffs

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Carolina is going to be a tough team to beat this year. I think they'll be more difficult than anything out West.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Missed penalty on Matthews and fans cheering while a player is down, very classy

If that were true it wouldn't be classy. Thankfully it is not true.

 

[JKG33]

Miss the 90s masks haha

Yup. I loved the days of Belfour and Cujo, who kept the same mask just updated it every time they changed teams.

I think Quick was one of the last ones to keep the same design, and even he's on the daveart shit now

Idk the Avs have looked scary all year long

 

[Rschmitz]

Not a penalty. Refs letting those hits go all game. Plus he dived. Magically back out next shift

Every time a Lightning player falls on the ice it's apparently a dive. LOL

 

[nbwingsfan]

Both goaltenders bailing each team out.

Happy to see Nylander looks dangerous out there. Leafs might have a chance to pull this off if he keeps that up since the first line has been relatively quiet

 

[TheDoldrums]

only Leafs fans would cheer their superstar throwing a big hit. Every other fanbase would hold a respectful candlelight vigil until the player returned to action

 

[JadedLeaf]

Leafs trying to do too much the last few shifts. Over passing.

They've had a tendency to do that at times during the season. Their pp suffers because of it.

Second period was far better than the first. First was very disjointed and didn’t flow.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

They'll collapse in Avs fashion before the finals.

They are good for sure, but so is Boston.

If the shoe fits... Y'all go down awful easy is all I am saying

 

[Theodore450]

Best part of the game has been the announcer saying this games series changed because “ Tavares has made his presence known”

 

[robertocarlos]

I watched it again. AM should have been given 2 minutes for boarding.

 

[Rschmitz]

Noted

I kinda liked the Gerry Cheevers era, with the stiches!

 

[The Grim Reaper]

They call that PTSD ;-)

Well every time the big tough lightning hit the ice they act like they’ve been shot

 

[Frosty415]

Definitely looked like a textbook boarding, oh well the refs will always miss a few

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Steve Dangle, take ten steps back. You’re way to close to the camera.

Oh, and go away…

 

[Pierre Larouche]

They'll collapse in Avs fashion before the finals.

Not this year.

 

[authentic]

I mean, that was a bad hit.

Tampa has two hits from behind in this game worse than that one
