Far from over, we won 2 games not 4.
Kadri and Komarov are key members but not like they lost top players. We have a long ways to go to close this out.

Kadri is a top player in so many ways for the Leafs.

It's sad how true this has been game 1 and 2.

Hopefully tonight the Leafs actually show up to play.

Leafs have been pretty good at home this year, but then again, we've had good special teams this year too until this playoff series started...

Hopefully this is an exciting game for both fan bases, although I'm obviously going to hope for an eventual Leafs victory.

Enjoy the game.

Not entirely sure why you think they didn't show up for either game. They are playing well, maybe not up to their potential but they aren't being destroyed. Bruins aren't playing to their potential either. Last 2 Leafs goals are a good example. Both teams took their foot off the gas in 3rd period. Crappie goals allowed on both sides.

I guess I just feel like the Leafs haven't been playing to their full potential, although Boston obviously deserves a lot of credit for the way the games have gone.

Hopefully at home ice and with last change the Leafs can put forth a better effort.

I think we need to get Matthews away from your Bergeron line. Matthews' lines offense is being totally shut down and they're not keeping your boys off the scoreboard either.

Apparently with Kadri out, we're putting our trust in the Habs sleeper agent, Plekanec, (with Marleau and Marner) to nullify your top line. I have no idea how that's going to work out.

I guess we'll see after the game if Babs has lost his mind, or he's a genius. To be fair, he doesn't have many good options for dealing with that line with Kadri out.

Hopefully Andersen bounces back from, uh, the last two games? He hasn't been too great so far, but I know he has it in him to be a solid goalie. Hopefully he is properly dialed in tonight and the players in front of him give him a chance.

I grew up a Wings fan, live in Toronto. As a result, I pretty much watch every Leaf game (I just love watching all the hockey I can get).

With that being said, the Leafs are playing terrible. I agree with the consensus on CBC panel, TSN panel, and SportsNet panel - this is the least engaged and intense the Leafs have played all season. Tough time to do that too in the playoffs. This is how they played when they hit that stretch of only 3 wins in 9 games during the season. They look awful.

Not taking away the way the B’s have played, they look sharp and ‘on point’. They clearly deserve to be 2-0 in the series. I’m sure they have another gear to them for sure, but they have played some good aggressive intense hockey in the first two games.

Good game Bruins fans!

Exciting and close game until that last goal by Marleau. Even after that, Bruins were pressing pretty hard and I'll admit I was a bit worried.

Much better performance from the Leafs. Andersen was on his game and that Plekanec line actually did a good job.

Hopefully game 4 is just as exciting.
