I smell first round exit again
Great insights. I definitely think Toronto's got the upper hand this year.
Of course Elliotte is saying this team is better, he’s always been a rider.
Why is Jake Muzzin name on the out list he's still with the team isn't he I think they meant to put Rasmus Sandin
We gone beat Tampa
Don’t be fooled the leafs won’t get to game 7. They’ll be out before that.
the Leafs improve every year and somehow keep losing
it's hard to bet for them this year but I can see the argument
No way this team is as good as last year at this point. Maybe they win a round finally though, who knows.
The Leafs as a team don't play well defensively, especially in their own end. A little bit of pressure and they don't know how to positive themselves to help themselves out, instead, they puck watch and puck pursue and all too often it ends up in a high-quality scoring chance when they leave an opponent wide open in front of their net or somewhere else. Just look at the last game against Detroit, terrible decision-making in their own end and they let numerous Detroit players get behind them in the neutral zone which is one of the worse mistakes any defenseman can make yet it happens all the time because their defense doesn't care all that much about defensive positioning, instead they just want to race up the ice with the puck.
What a stupid playoff format
Tampa in 6.
It won't go 7 games this year. Tampa in 4.
Imagine Leafs break the curse and somehow meet Oilers in the SCF, that would be the most electric series ever, with an insane atmosphere
Last year, this team was better
