That would be an incredible series.

It really would - there would be almost literally nothing that it wouldn't have

With tampa and pittsburgh out, thisbis quite the opportunity for the leafs. The onlyvreal obstacle left is washington assuming the leafs get by boston.

Honestly, no other team is unbeatable imo. Especially given that Tampa just had one of the historically best seasons ever and got swept. Literally anything can happen.

Yet you dedicated multiple pages on this thread to them.

I did? Thats the first post ive mentio ed them in. And second, people are naturally going to discuss ongoing games. The leafs werent playing last night. Third, had it not been pittsburgh on the other side, it probably woulnt have gotten much attention at all.

At least your not salty about Tavares any more just some guys opinion in a thread that doesn't matter. Things are looking up for you.

Really good post.

So can we talk Boston?

Last nights games are over and done.

Better team doesn't always win. Case in point; that series.

Better team that had 6 goals all series that lost to the team with more points in the regular season? Better than the team that gave up the least amount of goals all season and continued into the playoffs? Stop being bitter pal they won and deserved that series, they shut down elite offensive players 4 straight [/img]

Pens had their goalie pulled for more mins then they had the lead the entire series. Yeah they outplayed us and it was all Lehner 😂🤣🤣

Nobody is being bitter - just keep in your lane and make sure that you're not the bad winner. The hockey gods are watching.

Did you actually watch Columbus play? They have the talent, speed, physicality, d and goaltending all doing balls out right now. If they play like the did vs Tampa they may come out of the east. Bobrovski is elite when hes dialed in

Tonight is Toronto's most important game in 52 years. This is your chance Leaf fans.

Dude, the Isles played a tremendous series against the Pens. We are aware of that, no need to get sour when one person on this board doesnt see it the same way. Move along and enjoy your victory.

so with the Tavares line pretty much dominating the Bergeron line, what happens if they mix the lines up? is there really much they can do? Leafs get last change, so there really isn't any getting Bergeron away from Tavares.

Watching Columbus the last few games... if they continue to play this way, the rest of the East is in for a very rude awakening.

NYI were outplayed, except where it matters most, in goal.

I can respect Islander fans being happy and excited, but that was about a misleading a 4-game sweep as you are likely to see.

Islanders vs. Carolina/Washington should be really good and Boston/Toronto vs. Columbus should be excellent also.

99% of playoff teams have all of that... (1% is the leafs and physicality )

the Isles would have to play about as good as they possibly can to beat the Pens, even when Pittsburgh is struggling, so what you say is very true.

But again, why is there Isles discussion here. There are far more important things. For one, Boston tonight. Second, the other top team left, WAshington.

I doubt they will mix the lines up tbh. Can't see them separating the best line in hockey. If they do, maybe it'll be during their home games.

Isles were the better team, but they were outplayed for the most part (at least what I saw). Goaltending was the biggest difference between the teams.

No one is being a bad winner but to say the pens were so much better in that series is ridiculous. Let's be honest the isles fans weren't happy jt left but it's worked for him as well as the isles. Personally I much prefer what happened this year than keeping JT it wasn't expected but lou and Trotz have turned this into an actual respectable team. Isles fans dont like leafs fans for trolling us all summer about tavares leaving, now leafs fans dont like the isles for trolling them back after two dominating wins in the regular season. It's become a rivalry and it's great for the players, fans and hockey in general. Also leaf fans calling out isles fans for the rubber snakes thrown and one Jersey and booing is ridiculous as well. Didn't you guys throw like 7 phaneuf jerseys on the ice and didn't you boo debrusk? Should Boston put a spotlight on him next game and cheer so his feelings aren't hurt? Hypocrites but in suppose it's a select few that give the bad name

That best line in hockey is completely ineffective against the Leafs top line right now.
