Why did so many of you WANT this match up

I wanted this matchup because if the Bruins can’t be the ones to kill the Leafs’ dreams this year, the Sens are the next best thing.

The series currently stands at 3-2 in favor of Toronto, with Game 6 in Ottawa coming up. The Maple Leafs looked as dejected as I’ve ever seen at the end of Game 5, and if the Sens can win Game 6, I’ll say Game 7 will be a tossup.

All the pressure is on the Leafs. It won’t be easy, but as long as you get quality play from Ullmark, these are two winnable games.

I wanted this match up because Toronto was never the threat of the Atlantic division. Even if they beat us it’s always been Florida/Tampa to make it to the conference finals. We did sweep the leafs in the regular season, I know that doesn’t mean much but this is still prob the best match up to give the team experience.

Other than game 1 where the refs dictated the outcome, this series could easily been 4-1 Ottawa. We hit a lot of crossbars and missed a lot of chances. The boys are learning what it takes to be in the playoffs, they learning how to hit and grind down a team. Just hope it carries into next season and they get even a little bit better.
