Here we go
anyone else fine with maybe letting the habs back within 2 goals for the potential of Matty getting an ENG?
I thought Matheson was an old man why the fuck is he so fast?
Willy standing still that ENTIRE shift
Love the guy but holy fuck
4-1 worst lead in hockey
Great. Now they’ll suck off suzuki and caufield.
Nylander literally stopped skating for 10 seconds on that shift…
Here we go…
Idk about you guys but, Nylander was standing up straight for most of that defensive effort. Maybe he had an extended shift!?
Fucking 4-1 leads😐
you’re up 4-0, just close out the fucking game
letting dogshit teams back into the game is a constant problem with this fucking team
God Nylander looks so lazy sometimes
You’re kidding yourself if you don’t think a Knies-Holmberg-Nylander line wouldn’t get cooked in the playoffs.
ok now I’m nervous
Cole giving me Tim’s points, but why do the Leafs constantly just stop playing when they have big leads
I love Willy but what the actual FUCK was that shift
Can we not fucking do this?
What the fuck was Nylander doing
You just can’t underestimate Caufield’s size
Here we go, let the cum guzzling of cohle caufeld continue
Holmberg man, what were you doing?
I saw that coming once the third attempt comes.
Sportsnet readying up the 15 minute Caufield segment now

# Don’t lose your shit….
WE ARE STILL LEADING
Also shut up Craig nobody asked you
Suzuki and Caufield that’s a bingo. That’s it tonight right? We good?
Benoit chasing a defender behind the net leaving his man open for no reason
Leaf’s typical 3rd period meltdown incoming
Sometimes Holmberg does stupid things
brutal effort from nylander wtf
Yeah that goal can’t happen
Wow that horn is awful and way too fucking long
I couldn’t take my eyes of Willy, just floating around
Two guys following one guy
Get yourself ready for a third period 20 minute absolute fucking seige. When we were down to Tampa we turtled. Watch Montreal go flat out in the third. This baby will be tied and go to OT.
This line struggles defensively. They got hemmed in and two of us followed the guy behind the net. Tough one.
Leafs keep trying after getting a big lead challenge: impossible
Will they poop this lead away? Stay tuned to find out
Oh good now the panel can glaze all over Cole caulfield all intermission
So help me fucking god if we blow this. This is already so frustrating / lock up the fucking game here
Gaaammmmmmmeeee maaanaaagement
Domi you need to shoot that ughhhh
Lol oh no I missed it but it was Caulfield? This sub is gonna have an aneurysm.
Montreal is 0-28-3 when giving up 4 or something like that..
lol, ref just decided not to call that icing?
Mfers can’t chill on a saturday night huh? It’s us, we’re mfers
