[Le Cobra]

Campbell 14-2-1 now, great to see him get another solid win.

Fourth line put on a show. Campbell was sharp and Matthews is just amazing.

I Wasnt even born yet Jeff.

 

[On-the-Fly]

Thats a good win. Campbell played well. The right guys scored. The PP put one back. Held on to a 4-1 lead.

But you know what? Im glad they have a few left against these guys on a tight schedule. Im bloody sick of not hating that goddamn beautiful gift to sports uniform those bastards wear.

Leafs are looking good in the Folligno era and we still have Hyman coming back.

 

[HolyCrap]

Who would of thought before this season the Leafs would clinch a playoff spot before the mighty Habs? Incredible.

 

[Griffin76]

Another GWG for Matthews

Cruise to a win and their jesus literally looks like a 12 year old out there. Good night.

This is going to be the Leaf's first round match-up in the playoffs too.



I like their chances.

Feels good.

Team is rolling now.

 

[saffronleaf]

Feels great clinching a playoff spot against the Habs.

- Campbell was excellent

- Matthews & Nylander highlight reel goals

- Impressive play by the 4th line

- Spezza ties Richard

- Would like to see more of a physical response to the Habs, though Sandin brought some of that

- 2nd line was quiet until the 3rd period

- Not our best game but that's ok

[I Believe]

Is it too early for the car flags or nah?

 

[wingman75]

Fantastic 3rd period. Did not give up much, very few turnovers and capitalized on a mistake from the other team.

Job 1 complete - playoff spot clinched.

 

[MattySnipes]

Leafs improve to 31-13-5 on the season.

That's a franchise record for wins and points (67) at the 49-game mark.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Have to save that for tomorrow night.

Every win baby
Every win !

 

[The Beyonder]

Now lets put a "y" on that next.

 

[DirkStraun]

Great game, feels amazing clinching a playoff spot against the Habs. At the same time we make it a little more nerve wracking that they get it. Habs suck and Go Leafs Go

 

[Leafsfan74]

Ship it.

Campbell once again outmatches the opponents goalie. Nice to see this happening on a regular basis.

Leafs had a balanced attack, and didn't attempt anything cute once they had the lead. Up and out, not trying to force things and play into the Habs hands, you don't get extra points for style. Safe, smart, opportunist playoff-style hockey.

A warning though, the Habs are entirely different with Gallagher in the game. From both a psychological and confidence standpoint. Ditto for Carey, even as he had a tough year. He has a history of doing well in big games. So, I know they don't need to be told to not underestimate them or take ANY team lightly after the regular season winds down.
