What’s everyone hoping for when it comes to the Dallas and Calgary game?

I’m kinda torn but I guess I’m rooting for Calgary since they’re a Canadian team (even tho I still hate Edmonton lol)
- Dozzer

Calgary as I have them in my brackets

He predicted Tampa in 6, said he hoped he was wrong tho
- Dozzer

I don’t believe it. I think he would rather be right.

Right in the picks he did type that.

I’m just being honest, not defending him

Same here but I was wondering what my desire is without considering that… it’s still Calgary

You really don’t like it when the leafs win, do you?
- shack67

Wtf in thatt post suggest that?
Vasy hasnt been great at all. Leafs should have won by now.

I just looked it over and in Tampa’s last 11 games (April) his stats weren’t a whole lot better

.306 GAA and .904 SV%

And TB still won more than half the games

Glad you are all going to be wrong

So vasy has yet to win them a game is the point.
We've been lucky, hopefully he keeps his subpar play up.

Hopefully, we'll see.
Either way, no big deal.

The leafs are still a dominant offensive team so even if he does play great he’s still likely to scored on.

Shutting the leafs out only happened once this season for instance.

Yes it is!

I understand that in a pool you can put your thoughts first.

But being a fan means you want them to win badly.

He doesn't even have to shut them out, could be just let in one goal.
But fortunately that hasnt occurred.

Want them to win sure, but if they don't, meh what can you do.
I have no expectations of the team, not that heavily invested.
Get over that first round hump, its all i would care about. Everything else would be gravy.

Well after that ringing endorsement I retract my previous statement.

- Fakepartofme

His year long GAA was 2.49 this year which means the top scoring teams will likely get at least 2 or 3 and he only has the main amount of 1 goal games against against the non playoff teams.

I hate to say this to you but a true fan wants them to win badly, shrugging it off if they don’t means you like the team but don’t love them like a pure fan does

He will love them, once Willy is gone.

I don’t remember him being hyper critical of the PPG player only making 7 million

No. You dont decide what a true fan is.
You wanna be a homer or overly invested, great, all the power to you and anyone else. Its all good and can be fun.
After decades of failure, im at a show me stage with this team. Show me youre different and get past the first round.
Shrugging it off if they dont win doesnt make anyone any less of a fan. Maybe a little more in control of their emotions, but not any less of a fan.
I wanna see a cup just like anyone else, i want my kids to see a cup but if it never occurs its nowhere near the end of the world or anything devastating. The results of pro sport teams is very low on my important things in life scale.
But it doesnt make me or anyone else any less of a fan.

Uh? Seems like a foolish comment.
Im not one of the willie haters. Ive defended him to them though

Good try.
Better luck next time.

After Toronto's oft-deserved rep as a flat home crowd during the regular season, it's so cool to see what a great 7th man they are in the playoffs. Just blowing the whole joint up.
