Man, the Red Sox are having a pretty bad start to the season. The Jays are beating them right now and actually getting hits, and the Jays might be the worst team ever.

Game 2: Good Lord, why am I revisiting this?

7-3 Bruins. Pastrnak with 6 points.

Bruins with 4 in the 1st. The rest was just killing time until the flights left for Toronto.

Leafs PP: 1/4

Bruins PP: 2/4

Bruins outhit Leafs: 34-28

If James Tanner is reading this, the Leafs outshot the Bruins 33-28. That's a really meaningful statistic!

I will take the better player every time.

You stick to fan-girling over Debrusk

- lumlums

But you’re saying Nylander is the better player, based on what? His 7 goals this year? He’s not the better player of the two. I promise you he’ll frustrate the (frank) out of Leafs fans in the playoffs, and we’re all going to wish we had DeBrusk.

Game 3: Leafs win 4-2. It's looking good, fellas!!!!

Close game - Leafs didn't ice it until the 16:25 mark of the 3rd.

Leafs PP: 1/1

Bruins PP: 0/1

Leafs outhit them 38-26 (by the way, this is perhaps the worst "advanced stat" that is collected - every arena gives the home team an advantage).

Game 2, we started off well, but every time Boston took a shot on net, it was a goal.
I can't see Andersen doing that again.

I don’t hate any of those guys, they all compete hard for their teams.

I don’t like Connor Brown. Andrew Shaw is a goof. Jake Dotchin maybe..

Its going to be fun when Nylander regresses.

He’s going to start scoring on his own net?

Last year, we had to rely on Plekanec to shut down the Bergeron line.

Does anything else really need to be said?

Plekanec was the most effective centremen for the Leafs last playoffs at shutting down the Bergeron line.

Yeah, so let's bring up an overstated top heavy argument (last year, as you admit, that was more true) and forget about and or not mention every problem the Leafs have had since December

You saying the Leafs are going to roll the Bruins is just as dumb as the Leafs fans who think they have no shot.

I think Boston takes it in game 7 again ...
