BELIEVE ME, i live right in Leaf Nation, nothing finer than seeing them lose in a series against a team like MTL  that shouldnt even be in the playoffs.

People will say one is wasting their time rooting for someone to lose, as it just gets you wrapped up in negativity. I'd argue it's exceptionally logical: you reverse the 1/32 odds. It's often a much more gratifying way to watch sports IMO

That pos Kadre should be getting another 1st rd suspension. Likely won’t.

Still hate him from his laff days

I’d say McDavid is the most skilled player, but for best player I also consider the intangibles of leadership and determination. For a playoff series I’d rank Crosby, Patrick Kane, and MacKinnon at the top.

I don’t think there’s anything telling us McDavid isn’t a good leader and just because he isn’t as thick as MacKinnon means he’s not as determined? He’s the best player. Period.

[Buffalonill]

Its shocking that Mcdavid can't step it up in the playoffs 

Hopefully  they get  Swept and we can get Mcdavid for jack +

 

 The dream is still alive

Lots of good hockey on the menu

Who woulda thunk, Bogosian possibly going for a second cup in two years. Unreal.

Well his contribution to both clubs are just ever so slightly more than the peanuts vendor at the arena, so that horseshoe up his ass is ever present.

He's the Rob Johnson of the NHL

I actually kind of enjoy Kadri’s game when he isn’t crossing the line. He doesn’t play an overall dirty game I don’t think he just makes big, dangerous mistakes which are unacceptable but if he could eliminate those few he’d be a guy I want on my team today.

John Tavares just got knocked the ***** out in a bad bad way. Scary knee to the head. Leaving on a stretcher.

Glad he raised his arm and gave a thumbs up

[Claude Balls]

Scary stuff, tried to get to his knees.

 

[Claude Balls]

Really Foligno??? That was pathetic. That was such an unintentional hit by Perry. Scumbag move by the Leafs. And I'm all for fighting, but that was ridiculous.

Stupid commentary. Try harder Alberto. If that’s the scariest stuff he’s ever seen in hockey, he must be very young or just started watching the sport. 

[NE Branch]

I'm a big fan of on-ice justice, but that was embarrassing to the sport.  Damn, I just wanted to see a good game and you get this crap.

[Zamboni]

Yes!!!!!

[Hoss]

Yes!!!!!

What is this in response to?

Hopefully the Habs goal

Happened so fast

[Hoss]

It was fun when we thought Tampa/Florida would be a good series.

[Zamboni]

C’mon MTL kill this off

[Huckleberry]

Perry actually tried to avoid this, was scary when he tried to get up first time and his head tilts back.   he was so out of it I doubt he comes back in this series.
