First fan of the new Franchise! congrats !

EDIT:
I think Norwegian will get a lot of Skandinavian hockey fans on their cheap cross-atlantic flights; always said it would be a good idea for Las Vegas to focus on the European fans, playing some games late in the evening Friday and Saturday (so that these are early hour games in Europe)

As an outsider, watching the Leafs speed on the forecheck has been impressive. The Caps D haven't been able to handle the Leafs speed very well.

The series still has a long way to go (relatively speaking), so a lot can still happen. But, I gotta believe that Leafs fans have to be thrilled at what has evolved with the team considering its still not a finished product.

As for Radulov, didn't he along with Kovalchuk leave the ice at the World Championships a couple of years ago rather than stick around for the Canadian national anthem after Russia lost? And, they did so despite Ovie encouraging them to stay.

I think the Leafs are better without Polak
Zeitsev was shaky last night.

Leafs are fun to watch (winning a couple games does that)

Go Leafs!

Watching them battle instead of turtle is fun to watch. If it wasn't for the makeup of this team, I would have turned the game off after 10 minutes.

Here it is:




Glad to see the Bruins cheapshot BS caught up to them on this one. If you do this 100x a game your bound to get at least one.

Just saw a different angle. Ryan does get Nash a bit too but apparently Methot was called for the same earlier?

- markmark
He was called for it earlier after punching Schaller twice, who did nothing and took it and they called him for a matching roughing penalty. So to say they called him on that is a stretch, seeing as they gave Schaller a penalty for being a punching bag

Methot and other senator players also did it 3 other times with no retaliation and no calls and then they call that?

It was truly awful.

I was all for letting them play and letting that stuff go, but if you're going to do that then let it go the whole game. especially in OT

I see RJ wasn't happy about the loss last night...





Also, go watch the Bruce Cassidy talking to Edwards and the other commentator after the game. Edwards sits quietly the whole time and at the very end just complains about the penalty. (Which, granted, I haven't seen)

I was waiting for that push back by wsh last night ant it came in the first 10 mins of the game.

Leafs were able to fight back and not rollover which I think is key for the series going forward.

And the pk was great last night.

You did not want to be around Atomic Wedgie after 10 minutes last night.

Anyone want to talk about how Martin needs to be benched for his stupidity?

Franking miracle they didn't score 5 on 3.

If they score, the game is over.

The series is over.

The rebuild is over.

Might as well move the franchise to Quebec City.

Just posted the below over in the B's blog. No surprise it was that twat Peel blowing the game.

"This was the EXACT problem with that (frank)er in the TORvWAS game 2. Called EVERYTHING in the first, then all of the sudden nothing was a penalty and then out of nowhere makes a soft call. Peel should be left off of all remaining games for the playoffs."

Also, you didn't deny trying to steal sticks so I'll assume that was you.

I finally watched a game at Real Sports.

Holy frank, what a great place to watch the game, although they put on franking house music in the intermisson, instead of letting us listen to Coach's Corner.

And the menu is franking horrendous.

Oh poop...they're onto me

I repelled down from the 300s

He's an absolute joke. But let's not pretend like Torontonians have never thrown anything on the ice/field

There's stupid fans in every fan base.

What are the good points?

If they play crap music and don't have good eats you might as well sit on the couch in front of a 60 inch with as much beer as you need in the fridge

Honestly.... house music, as awful as it is, might have been a nice reprieve from listening to Cherry talk about +/- .

(I did agree with Cherry talking poop about Kuznetsov though)

You think so?

Habs are considered favorites vs NY imo.

They'd be favorites vs the Sens or Boston as well... especially considering the success they had over both teams this season.

Am I wrong to think so?

- Scabeh


Considering the up and down season the Habs have had I wouldn't consider them a favorite in any regard. Not saying they are considered the lesser team, but favorite?

They lack scoring punch. If they meet Pittsburgh you really think the Habs beat them?

Was hilarious, I saw a brain fart pass to nowhere from a d-man wearing what I thought was 51, and I was like poop, Gardiner's reverting back to his old self.....then I noticed it was 52 making the pass. Breathed a huge sigh of relief. Also made me realize what's different about Jake this year since for a second I couldn't differentiate between him and Marincin, Gardiner looks bigger. Maybe he filled out his 6'2 frame?

From Wedgie's and your comments, I deduct that
