The Lightning spoiled the Maple Leafs’ plans to wrap up the series Thursday night by picking up the 4-2 win on the road. Andrei Vasilevskiy came up huge with a 29-performance to keep the Maple Leafs in check. Mikey Essyimont was the unsung hero, scoring the game-winning goal on an odd-angle shot in the 2nd period. Adam recaps the exhilarating win, as well as the chances of a full fledge comeback.

Ill pretend to be shocked that you dont credit the refs for this win, but when they correctly dont give reilly a major penalty for watching point fall into the boards: "the refs stole this game from us" Jesus Christ man
Just wanna say from a leaf's fan you guys deserved this win and coming into this game I just knew we were gonna lose but it is what it is 🤷
process over results. the lightning looked like the better team in 4 of the 5 games so far. they have to be favored to win the series now unless keefe can adjust (unlikely given his love for holl)
Garbage game, the rats had the refs.
Honestly getting the feeling now that the leafs are in serious trouble. The team knows they blew two games they should've won, and aren't messing around anymore. If Vasy stays even somewhat north of .900, we're winning the series.
I said it last time: If the Lightning win G5, they are going to win the series.
Leafs are in trouble. They missed their chance.
Cernak he's coming back. if I were you I would look at the Maple Leafs post game interviews and see them shrugged their shoulders and have a very defeatist tone and attitude.
This series is special teams. No cap.
It's two top tier teams, in a stupid dvisional based structure to create rivalries, that results in these level of team competing in the first round.
At the end of this series, regardless of who wins, it will be the team that scored more pp goals that will come out on top.
Leafs have bunting back they should use him to remove kucherov from the series
Idk what it is but everytime jeannot plays we lose😅 we better keep him out. Play mikey he brings a lot of good to the team. Lets get game 6 and 7, vasy is locked in so we got a chance
Also we should've never lost game 4 and 5 just gotta close games out. So we basically gave them 2 games but now all team is dialed in so im confident this group will show us why they cant be count out😊
As a Bolts fan I am going to say we need to take it one period at a time. And yes l see this game as the team finally getting on the same page. Let’s Go Bolts!!!!!
when we get ahead I’m tired of this protect the lead type of play literally bury them
As a objective Leaf fan the Bolts are a better playoff team no doubt. The Leafs are also being out coached
TB needs Cernak
As a Leafs fan I envy the fans of the Lighting! They play like MEN unlike the steaming pile of WOKE garbage we have in Toronto!! GO LIGHTING!! beat the living SHIT out of these sissy's
The Lightning prove their point like last year and won the Series. I believe the Lightning will prove their Point again when number 21 scores lol
Huge lightning fan here fan of all Tampa sports would love to be a part of your podcast sometime. Really like the non bias outlook
How do you feel about Lalondes statements about Vas? 🤔
So Vassy carry’s the team got it. Maybe they should go 18 million over the cap again then they can win.
I'm on here because I can't find the vasilevskiy save of the series The shrug save I want to try to find a topographical View and see how close to the red line it was I never showed it even on Bally's, PS Tampa really better stick to five on five I'm interested to see how game 6 picks up physically because game 5 seemed like I don't know how to put into words but very careful and yet very cautious and very All or Nothing at the same time it's a trip like I said I don't know how to put it into words thanks for the video man
