What is your playoff routine?...Any superstitions? Any Leaf rituals ? ....

Let us all know if you have any Leaf playoff routines , superstitions, rituals or anything else that you do before and or during and or after watching our LEAFS rumble through each game and series to the final destination?

I always put out a Stanley Cup full scale replica out on a table with table cloth and white gloves while watching .
Also I used to put pyramids for pyramid power out everywhere when Red Kelly coached

I also play the song “ The Maple Leaf Forever “ before every game !

And of course sipping and smiling with some crown poured gently over some crackling ice .

Let us all know yours

“ If you cant beat them in the alley, you can’t beat them on the ice “
Major Smythe

Gooooo bearded LEAFS Goo !

- don’t be cocky
- game or series isn’t done until fat lady sings
- stay calm (if possible)
- avoid alcohol, especially in or after playoff OT)

Besides that no other routine as such because fir me to follow a routine or superstition Leafs have gotta win a round or two so I know it works

Let’s all think back to what we were doing with 10mins left in game 7 and not do that.

 

[Bluelines]

I don't shave my back or legs.

 

[ErnieLeafs]

Not superstitious now that I don't play serious sports anymore, but during the playoffs, i'll make the same pre-game meal I used to eat, when we play at home.

 

[Mess]

I cry tears of joy when they win and tears of disappointment when they lose.

I literally do the opposite of all these things.

 

[Stephen]

I often like to go full anti social, basically sit on the edge of my coffee table with my eyes peeled to the screen, laptop to my side in case things go wrong.

 

[Once]

I wear a Leafs hat/jersey/sweater most of the day before a big game (if I don't have to work)

 

[PromisedLand]

I literally do the opposite of all these things.

I have learned from experience

 

[Pookie]

I don't shave my back or legs.

Just your front and upper torso?

Sort of a ying yang thing?

 

[Pookie]

I used to put up a custom flag I made out of a Brad Smith jersey that I had as a kid. I’d keep it on a specific channel at volume level 17 for Wendel Clark.

Now? I don’t believe in superstitions any more ... like my flag.... or religion.

 

[Bluelines]

Just your front and upper torso?

Sort of a ying yang thing?

I also braid my chest hair...

 

[Blanche Blanche]

1. I will wear a leafs hat or have it out in plain view if having my hair done

2. I will purposely have my date/gf come over around the last 10 minutes of the game so i dont get too stressed out dying over every second.

3. #2 started when Bautista bat flipped and the next few minutes my date knocks on my door

4. I have a moment of silent reflection and prayer for the team, and hope the gods bless the team

Home Games I put on my blue jersey with blue babsocks and away games i wear the white jersey with white babsocks.

 

[Judas Tavares]

I don't wear any leaf related stuff during the playoffs cause it will jinx them.

 

[GodEmperor]

Pray to the Based God
Hunt Bears

 

[LeafSteel]

No changing the channel when they are winning, and if the other team scores 2 consecutive goals, the channel must be changed and then put right back to the game.

 

[Liminality]

I wear my babsocks.

 

[IamruKusleaf]

All regular season long I sit or lay on the couch in various positions , but in the playoffs I always stand up with my LEAF gear on head to toe and bring out a life sized Stanley Cup replica and sit that next to the tv .
No one in the house communicats with me start to finish ha ha

not even ruKus calls it and I therefore can’t sees it !
Goooo Fucalicious LEAFS Gooo!

 

[lifelonghockeyfan]

There have been so few playoff appearance lately, it is difficult to say anything is a "ritual". Although it may be time to start one.

 

[Babcocks Marner]

When I was a kid, my Dad would decorate the TV room (Cross between a living room and a man cave) with Leaf jerseys and we had a huge flag, that was when we were good.
Since then, I had 3 kids, and only 1 can even remember Boston.
Now that playoffs will be a thing again, maybe it's time to start something fresh

 

[Babcocks Marner]

I don't shave my back or legs.

Leafs make the finals and Bluelines be like
