GDT: Stanley Cup Playoffs - Round 1: Leafs Vs Bolts; May 2nd. 7:30 p.m. EST

[Nylanderthal]

I’m almost numb and devoid of any nerves. These guys blew that for me last year. Walking in with expectations of seeing some intense and hard hockey. No clue how it ends up.
They could run Tampa out the building, they could get swept by Tampa and any outcome inbetween and I wouldn’t bat an eye.
I’m just happy we’re finally here again and ready to watch this unfold with you (mostly) good people

Leafs hoping to roll 3 lines a lot I see
With a dash of 4th line if needed

Here's hoping Leafs take a 3 or 4 goal lead and we see more than a dash of the 4th line.

There’s no way that’s 5000 people in MLS.

what are you talking about? Both won Calder Cups before getting hired into the NHL parent club LOL. Jon Cooper was a lawyer and then came into hockey. Cooper lucked his way into coaching. Keefe actually played in the AHL and NHL.

Different roads to being an NHL coach but if you look, their rise from the AHL to the NHL is very similar.

Cooper was a Notre Dame Hound, the hockey high school that produced Wendel Clark

Time to get hurt again.

I think this Tampa team is hungry for #3 so they can go down in history, and they have the horses, experience and leaders to do it.

 

[The Big Swede13]

Lets go Leafs get it done and set the tone

I've barely posted in GDT's this year, after last years epic collapse.

This is all that matters, and I'd be lying to you if I said I have any optimism.

 

[therealkoho]

Not worried about it at all, this is their year

 

[CelticDruid]

I don't want to see no Leaf player missing a chance to inflict a hit on the TB team. Finish all your checks boys.

Then get lost.

You didn't see the season we had then. Leafs got this.

It is behind about 20 seconds.

 

[Apotheosis]

It's time for Matthews to turn in to playoff Malkin and Marner to turn in to playoff Kane.

 

[HockeyVirus]

Lightning are all like wooo and Leafs are silent and serious, single file out.

Hope that means they are focused and not scared

 

[DarkKnight]

Home ice baby!

Have felt like throwing up for the last 30 minutes.

....then I heard our awful intro music, and it made me chuckle.

 

[TMLeafer]

Let's see how many times past years references come up for the Leafs.
