A very heartfelt and touching video, thanks to the author for this!🥺
Leafs take Game One 4-3.
These bots are gross
This Boston team is not as good as last years team. (The one that lost in the first round) RELAX LEAFS IN 5.
oh the hope, how it runs so deep
Colorado vs Winnipeg ⚡️💯. Dallas vs Vegas. ⚡️⚡️💯
I have a feeling, Leafs in 6
Go Boston Go!
Toronto will choke as always
While I am a Leaf fan , you can’t discount Boston, they are not as good as they were…But they have heart and still gritty .They are still a very serious team. Leafs in 7 , but thats only and only if the core finds their balls and finally play a playoff way,If not well then I feel its time to change this roster to one that will actually step up when they need to…not only when they want to , Big difference
Brilliant video
First shift game one, you start Bert, Domi, Reaves up front with Edmondson and Bush on the point. Hit and crash the net hard, set the tone right off the bat. Second shift is Mcmann Matthew's and Nylander with McCabe and Benoit. Then you settle into normal lines
Leafs gone in 4 this year. They love to golf and don't hate to lose.
Matts is a 7.62 Dud !
I think he is afraid of getting hurt !
Every yr, he disappears in the playoffs !
Take a look at the stats .
How many goals has Matts scored in the playoffs in the past 3-4 yr. 14:35
NOT MUCH !
Mike.
Upgrade that AHL defense and come back next year
Vulnerable? obviously Bruins have had a tough time all season of getting the puck out of their own zone! Turnovers will be the Bruins demise.
I think leaf tending is the glaring issue I feel it’s gonna be the reason they lose
The Bruins are in the Maple Leafs heads! Plain and simple! It’s up to the Leafs to get over it! If not, get the golf clubs ready!
Ya the bruins lean on teams as a team to wear teams down. It’s a team game. It’s not a we have nothing beyond 4 guys game. The leafs are relying on the 4 guys to produce everything.
Finally, a solid TML/BOS breakdown. If Boston takes it, it's due to goaltending. Boston has solid tending vs Leafs big time. Good Luck boys!
Bruins lost on purpose at the end of the season just to face the leafs in round one. I say Bruins in 5 only because the leafs haven't proved themselves in the playoffs and never will without defense and goaltending.
Leafs lose in 5, leafs fire Keefe, buyout Tavares. Leafs go to the final next year BOOK IT. NOT going to win with pajama boy and dough boy
JD Bunkis calls professional hockey people twice his age, "brother." Here's a dude who looks and talks like he's in his parents' basement, and he calls them, "brother." On top of that, he's so long-winded, self-absorbed, and unbearable.
As a Leaf fan, judging by the last games and the season inconsistency, provided that one of the goalies does not play incredibly well and the guys who failed in the post-seasons have an outstanding play-off, I cannot see us progressing deep. The Leafs would have to play in a way, I have not seen them playing yet.
The Leafs are going to get out coached, and Boston wins the first round.
