Ok but when Buntings ready, he’ll play.

Right on! Good win for your boys tonight.

Clifford (even though that was not bright at all) should still be in lineup of not suspended or after it ends anyways.

This was a solid lineup all the way through tonight. Keep it until it fails.

Except Bunting will be back so one of 4th line drops.

Oh ya 100% agreed. I think at that point Keefe will feel out the ‘shenanigans’ and make a Blackwell vs Clifford decision. Clearly Blackwell is a better player but on 4th line minutes Clifford may be necessary with the amount of ‘meat’ they have over on Tbay

It’s awesome for you guys that in my opinion last year and prior - I would immediately point to scratching Engvall maybe - he’s definitely earned his place at the table

That would be complete bs if Rielly get suspended https://twitter.com/searc...src=typeahead_click&f=top

I have a really hard time believing the Refs would let them fight, and then Rielly gets suspended for throwing a punch.

That would be DOPS levels of stupid

You aren’t drinking enough koolaid if you didn’t think you were watching a different Matthews and Marner this year.

It would be par for the course and consistent for the NHL. Jon Cooper sent out Perry and Maroon and told them to take out a star player and they did.

I must have missed Muzzin and Brodie getting obliterated as Tampa targeted them, bizarre because if I waited I'd see plan and simple. Thought it would be obvious considering how done Muzzin is, I must be a fool.

Anyone have any playoff stats since 2016/17? I don’t think leafs have won game 1 in any of those series.

It's almost like this team has been good all season and just continued it into the playoffs...

Matthews and Marner look like they belong in this moment

That’s good news he’s back soon - what’s the expectation?

Also awesome that you guys have Kerfoot that’s why he’s so valuable. He fills in on any line and at centre or on the wing. So valuable come this time of year….and PK and can play PP. Love those types of players.

They were trying to get that under wraps, not let it get out of hand. Didn't go so well for the zebras, but I don't think they'll be any suspensions out of that. They would've called some game misconducts out of that.

Cliffy is probably going to miss a game or two.

Yes, I have no idea why people always seem anxious to trade Kerfoot.
He isn't a superstar, but he's worth his salary.

I think game 2 or 3 he likely steps back in. I don't know who comes out. Clifford or Simmonds? Kerfoot to play wing on bottom line?

He's referencing Dozzer.
