I was expecting a tough loss and in a sense it was lol
Wes referring the game…on the second half of a back to back…against the defending Cup champs…who also happen to have two key players on the injured reserve.
I was fully expecting a loss and to be frustrated with the officiating.
….who the fuck are ***these*** Leafs?
I think we’re seeing a team that is finally tired of the narrative that they are soft and can’t compete when the other team cranks it up a notch.
They needed to find another gear and Rielly’s suspension was the catalyst. Getting clowned on by Ottawa was the last straw. They poked the bear and now every team is going to pay the price. I hope we can keep this going because we are really not fun to play against these days.
Vegas really looked like they could have used Mark Stone and Jack Eichel.
Depth scoring is awesome! Keep rolling boys
Leafs puffin’ on your dead homies 😮💨
Rest in piss bozos 🤣💯🔥
That 4th line looked so good last night. If Reaves can keep that play up then I see no reason to bump him out of the lineup
I have some fun stats that come via night shift boredom to share. These six players because my personal top 5 goalscorers of all time plus Matthews.
First 8 seasons.

Is Leafs the favorite to win Stanley Cup now? It must be.
