The outcome was in doubt in the hearts of part-time supporters.

I can’t wait for the trolls to come out and simultaneously argue that: a) the Leafs are too soft to be successful in the playoffs; and b) ten penalties to six is undeniable proof that the refs favour the Leafs.

Hey - what the. Frank is going on with Jacob Wirth’s?

Is the reopening plan dead?
- Atomic Wedgie

I have no idea.

I hope it’s reopened.

I've liked Nylander this entire time.

Aaron and I will be around to issue quick Justice if needed.

Leaf starting goalie gives up 4 goals on 8 shots and gets pulled.

Back up comes in and plays well.

Get penalty shot and not score.

Get game tying goal off where head and win in overtime.

I don’t see that being how Keefe drew up the game plan but they got the win.

Outgoalied and still won.

Gotta love it.

GO LEAFS GO!

Nice comeback…

Even for you that’s a bit cynical

Willie with a nice set of gears. First to 4th in a flash.

Watchkng Matthews tread lightly in the post game interview when asked about the officiating. Lol

At the very least, it appears the Bruins and cats are toughning us up for the play-offs.

You mean hold two thoughts in their heads at the same time? You’re sweet, Wedgie

Starting a comeback in HBSL

So apparently Provorov refused to wear the Flyers’ pride warmup jersey tonight.

Not here to squash anything in particular. Let's just be mindful of the jokes and comments that comes with the Provorov territory.

it's just an 82 game warm up until Toronto-Tampa again in the first round

I think outsiders are just skeptical you guys can beat Tampa more than anything else

but yeah, if you can get over the hump, Toronto can then beat anyone

I thought Feces Ferguson (FF) was banned

Yes, I was trying to sound unbiased I forgot they changed that rule.


Why is that a penalty on Gudas? He hit him too hard? Charging, my ass

Refs need to be demoted.
- Ratsreign

It should have been 5 and a game. Railed him right into the post after he turtled when challenged after he low-bridged Engvall. Dirty coward POS

That might be a bit reactionary. It was charging - he took more than 3 steps to deliver that hit and did not let up, which is basically the very definition of charging. The fact that the NHL doesn't call it consistently is the NHL's own fault.

I'd even forgive him for not fighting ZAR - he shouldn't have had to. It was a clean hit. The hip may have hit the thigh, but it didn't get low enough to clip the knees. I don't like hip checks for the obvious risks they pose, but until the NHL smartens up and decides they are illegal due to the inherent risks, what are you going to do?

Gudas isn't smart, and aside from being physical and enjoying nasty play, isn't a particularly good defenseman. I mean . . . in the playoffs when nothing is called, he's probably an asset, but in the pursuit of the playoffs, he's probably a liability on a fringe team.
