Leafs = Least penalized team in the NHL.
Boston = 2nd Most penalized team in the NHL.

Don't worry about the Boston PP. Boston better concentrate on stopping the Leafs PP.

well they can't score if they are busy chasing Marner down in their own zone.

Don't hold your breath on the leaf machine, it all looks good and everyone wants to believe the bruins have nothing to lose while the leafs have ton to lose by not performing properly!

the leafs will have to kill of 3-5 penalties every game.

i like our 2nd and 3rd lines over theirs, but i just don't see it making up the difference if boston is averaging +2 ppg/game.

flames max is 2nd round, just like the leafs.

leafs won't get past tampa if they do find a way past the bruins.

flames won't beat any 2nd round opponent with a semi-retired goalie and an ahl lifer coming off a fluke career year.

Lightning and Capitals rematch in final four is most probable outcome barring weird injuries or other circumstances. I know it's important the Capitals have a different coach, but I don't see the results being too different: they have nearly the same group they had last year, and this group is probably the toughest team to play against in the playoffs.

The exact same level of meh as Boston's. It's identical.

Call me crazy, but I like TBL, BOS, CAR and NYI to make the 2nd round with BOS coming out of the east

Tavares is 46th among forwards in Time on Ice..Matthews is 64th...rielly is 29th for defenseman.

Babcock needs to lean on his bread and butter to win that series... But knowing Babcock, connor brown and kadri will likely have more time on ice then JT and AM.

Boston in 7 - unless the refs actually call the games properly, if so then I'll take the Leafs in 7.

Well in fairness, Leafs are 31st past 2 years in PP opportunities. But I am sure like last year we'll hear the absurb "Refs help Leafs" narrative with each call against Boston.
