Canes are playing excellent. I wanted to pick them in my bracket, but didn't have the gumption to do it. I had conversations with some friends in my pool after the games started and picks were submitted and people thought I was crazy to even consider the Canes. I had the caps in 6, but will be rooting for the Canes. Good luck tomorrow night.

Question for you. How outraged were you at Dougie Hamilton for that "play" or lack thereof on Brett Connolly's goal? Holy (frank) I'd be irate.

- RickJames77

I'm currently 0-5.

If the Leafs, Canes and Vegas win, I'll go 0-8.

Obviously I'd be happy to go 0-8...

I don't think I am going to be able to watch tonight. We all know what's coming.

BINGO!

Are you going tonight?

What time does the pre-game start?

- Atomic Wedgie
I am

I'm leaving work at 4 and taking an Uber/Lyft home because I need to pack something and take it to the post office today. Then there's a bar right by there where the pregaming will begin. Then walk over to the game

Nice night to walk home as well...although depending on the results, walking over a bridge might not be the wisest decision (joking).

I said the same thing last night. Part of me doesn't even want to watch the damn game.

But that is impossible... I'll be standing 2 feet away from the bloody TV.

I didn't watch last year. Thank goodness.

Unfortunately, it didn't help, but it allowed me to keep my sanity for 3 hours.

I still have an old portable AM/FM radio somewhere in my laundry room (it's yellow, so you think it's a cool Sony Sports model, but it's really Koss).



Anyhoo, I may dig it out and take the dog for a long walk. Listen to the game on the radio, and turn it off when it all goes to poop.

My kids are still optimistic. My wife and I laugh at their pitiful naivete.

They are still young Leafs fans.

They will learn.

Lucky bastard. Please offer support to any Leafs fans you might encounter on said bridge.

it would be so poetic for leafs to go 4-1 down in 3rd, before tying the game in last 10minutes and then winning in OT.
however, i don't want half of you to die of nerves tonight :D

- MaximusAurelius



It will be like it was in game 5 me thinks.

no scoring till the 3rd period.

Marner has been on the ice for 11 goals against in the series, that seems high (all sit)
7-11 (38% gf)

Nylander has been in the ice for 4 goals for and 1 against (80% gf)

you would think it was the other way around

- senstroll


Uh, who is playing against which lines
Which one kills penalties.

Need more context.

... or are you being humorous with this post?

My son also believes they can win.

He will learn.

The real problem is my wife also believes. When is she going to learn

honestly with all the bad breaks leafs have had in playoffs last years, they should lead 6-0 after first period...

Brood?

Hmmm, I am not picturing a little Wedgie as a Bushkorn, but I could be wrong.

Its ok, the good news is the Raptors are on at the same time as the Leafs, so if its not going so well, just switch over to the Raptors, as they are highly favored and should win tonight

BTW, there's a certain new blogger on this site that gets everyone banned for such ridiculous reasons. Not sure why they have such pull. I have never heard of them before.

I'll probably just switch it off, and play Whitney Houston's "Didn't We Almost Have It All?" on continuous loop on the stereo.
