[The Grim Reaper]

They call what PTSD?

Thinking Boston actually has a chance this year.

If the refs keep the game 5 on 5, it favours the Leafs

If you're exchanging penalties, favours TB

Wonder if they're going to let them play in the third or have that first period penalty fest

Tampa has the only 5 on 5 goal this game.

 

[Strangle]

Please what? He jumped into Sergachev from behind and hit him square in the numbers into the boards. I’ve got no horse in this race, but to suggest that was a dive is silly.

It was one of dozens of dives. I didn’t realize Tampa was a diving team, but that’s becoming obvious

no

 

[Tobias Kahun]

yes they do

If Tampa had thrown a hit like that a leaf fan would have started a thread.

 

[PaulD]

Leafs are skating through it all

The unstoppable force are the Maple Leafs ....... compared to the lightening lightweights.

 

[Pink Mist]

Classy

Thanks

Vasilevsky has been saving everything

 

[Kevinsane]

The praise for Nylander on the broadcast is unintentionally hilarious. He plays like he’s in a no contact intramural ball hockey league. Softest player out there.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Yeah this is one of the dumber chirps but it comes out every playoffs. Fans in the stands cheer when good stuff happens for their team, and boo when bad stuff happens (even when it's legitimate)

"OMG look how dumb they are booing that call it was obviously correct" - as if anyone cares.

That's because mainly suits can afford to actually go to a game, not diehard knowledgable fans.

They are the best divers in the NHL

 

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

They are the best divers in the NHL

Relax

Ya, all of us would.

Every single one of us.

 

[Divine]

Ya we are such scum cheering our MVP laying the body.

They took Sergachev out on a stretcher right?

I think they took him out in a coffin. We're now watching the ghost of Sergachev play

 

[FourRings]

Not to the standard set by the refs this game. These hits were allowed all night

I don’t really care about the penalty, or lack thereof. I was responding to the notion that Sergachev dove. It was a bad hit and therefore logical he could’ve been hurt.

 

[Leaf Fans]

Thinking Boston actually has a chance this year.

Their series is tied at two games apiece. Carolina is on the way to a 3-2 lead, but it is not over yet.

 

[HockeyVirus]

The unstoppable force are the Maple Leafs ....... compared to the lightening lightweights.

I mean.. the Leafs certainly haven't been softer than the Lightning this series

 

[robertocarlos]

Vasilevsky has been saving everything

He used his elbow to make a save on Nylander.

 

[Strangle]

Ya we are such scum cheering our MVP laying the body.

They took Sergachev out on a stretcher right?

He will probably miss the rest of the series. He got hurt real bad

 

[TheAngryHank]

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

He get some new under-roos?

 

[ArGarBarGar]

Fans, cheering on a down player?

Never seen it before.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

No idea why people think PK isn't good in this role. Think he's killing it.

 

[Rschmitz]

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

First time you've seen a player skate through a check and fall?

threw one on brodie like two mins later lmao. You've also got the biggest p***y in pro sports maroon tryna goon it up. Tampa's been the dirtier of the two teams ainec.

 

[Leaf Fans]

If Tampa had thrown a hit like that a leaf fan would have started a thread.

If they did the title would be Tampa Bay player lays the body.
