Spoiler alert:

You ain't getting past the Leafs without Stamkos.. Your team is sinking and Vasi has been pretty poopty lately. Leafs have more fwd depth and better goaltending (as of late)..

i kind of dislike the tampa bay lightning.
a win in playoff series will not like a 'real win' (like vs boston/montreal/ottawa/philadelphia/pittsburg/nyr or any other team which have some significance) and when you lose, it's even worse

I came here to talk about the series because I think it would be a great one. I see you guys don't want to do that so I will leave your board. If they do end up playing, I can't wait - fun high pace hockey.

Ah, they're just messing with you man.

No one is actually crazy enough to think Polak is better than Hedman, well, I hope not.

Honestly, I'd rather the Leafs face the Bruins, than Tampa. We seem to have a proper strategy to beat the Bruins (in the regular season lately at least), but I agree with your assessment of Tampa and Toronto.

Your blueline is better than ours currently, goaltending could be even if Vasilevskiy finds his mojo (I hear he's been struggling lately), and it's arguable who has a better forward group. It would be a good series, but I would definitely be worried we'd get beat.

So by this logic if the Lightning win its even better for me since it was against the Leafs?

I think he might actually be saying he doesn't feel a rivalry towards Tampa, so it's not as sweet to win a series against your team as it would be someone like Boston/Montreal/Ottawa/Philly, etc.

Which is true. I don't hate Tampa, so while I'd be happy if we won a series against you guys, it'd probably be more meaningful to win a series against Boston due to history and rivalry, etc.

Whaa... we have Stamkos the Leafs supposed lord and savoir who spurned the Leafs and the tire company reps to stay in Tampa. If that doesn't create a rivalry I don't know what does...

I get it, I think these two teams might create a rivalry over the next few years.

If that was the case we'd be a rival to every team.. minus VGK, unless the Wild Bill dude doesn't want to sign here..

Tampa is in Buffalo category.
Just not very important or impressive.

Actually - at least I enjoy seeing Buffalo fail every year.
Can't even say that of Tampa - pure indifference.
So basically Tampa is even less relevant than Buffalo

Ha ha. We've got Matthews and co. It takes the sting out of another star not signing with us.

If we hated every team with a star player that was rumored to be coming to the Leafs and then didn't, we'd be angry at just about every other team in the league.
