Auston Matthews and John Tavares both say an intermission speech from Jason Spezza inspired the Leafs comeback.

The vet intangible affect.

He seemed to have done the same with campbell

Man, I want this guy to win a cup in Toronto so bad and hit his 1000 points as a leaf! He is likely my favourite leaf and if that's true, that's exactly why I like him on the team. Can hold his own on the ice in his role and is a legit vet for the room.

He was in the finals in what 2007? He must be telling these guys that opportunity doesn't knock as frequently as they may think.

Dress Simmons and Clifford

Cooper: "we're not making them earn it, we're kinda just giving it to them".

Lololol. Okaaaay. 🤣

Keefe likely believes that's the same thing for the Tampa wins. Leafs just handed them the games really.

Would be fun to start Game 6 on the right foot. Hopefully, the Bolts are playing loose, desperate hockey.

Would also be fun if the Leafs can show that they can dominate on the road.

Have they been in a series like this in the past two years? It feels as if they had little competition each year and won series in 5 or 6 pretty handedly.

I don't care how you phrase it, it was a great play

They were missing that drive in the first, but I saw Tavares specifically really forcing plays to the middle which I respected. He forced dirty areas scambles and that',s playoff hockey and he brought it. Even if he didn't score, he was dangerous all game to me. Big props for stepping up.

Pretty sure Islanders took them to 7 games last year and won game 7 1-0. That's about as tight as it gets

Alright Thursday night. Time to break this stupid streak about Tampa not losing back to back games.

Exactly what I was thinking.

Last time I got a PM, Weirdoh was asking for Richard pics..

…on a lighter note:

So, after the Matthews goal - I hear a ruckus out back. My neighbour (33 or so) outside by fire in a Tucker jersey having some pops. Just him. By himself with a tv pulled to his glass back sliding door so he can enjoy.
He’s holding his beer in one hand and whipping around a towel in the other yelling. Other neighbour obviously not a hockey guy yells at him to shut the -bleep- up.

The best response you could pull out in that moment, he quotes that bowler by yelling:

Who do you think you are, I ammmm!!!

Amazing night! Happy for you guys!

Ignorant comment.

I’m sorry folks!

I honest to god wasn’t aware of the protocol or the a crummy thing to do or not. I wouldn’t have posted a PM thing in this main area.

My bad for sure eh! I’m a bit out of touch. This is literally the only online thing I ever write or comment on. And it’s only been fairly recent at that.

Sorry about that!

PM the mods, best place to go about it. I caught it, if that was from yesterday pretty good odds I was the one referenced and I can 100% guarantee I have never PM'd him ever. Tough enough to read his drivel on the boards let alone deal with it in my inbox too. 🤮

It's all good dude, no worries!

I've been on this site forever but not a consistent poster and don't always know what's best decorum or protocol, either.

I have the oilers in one of my brackets. I mean, I felt McDavid had to get at least ONE series win.

The silver lining to the bracket being busted if it happens is I can laugh at Edmonton
