Kudos to Cassidy. He out-coached Babcock again.
Now he has Pastrnak firing on all cylinders as well. I still say that Columbus is going to beat Boston in rd 2 though. Will be a much more competitive series than the leafs were.
Not sure why you are praising Cassidy. Both of Pasta’s goal came off his regular linemates...

Great. So now the only thing you have to do is to find a logical connection between Marchand and Chara scoring, and the fact that Pastrnak wasn't on the ice. I'm curious how are you gonna do it.Yes but also Marchand scored the tap in and Chara scored the gwg when Heinen was on the ice and not Pasta
I'm confused. Haven't it worked after Pastrnak was REUNITED with Bergeron and Marchand? So where's the genius in that?
Yeah, the Leafs get zero zone time against Boston.
Boston in 6. Series is done. Game 5 & 6 will be blow outs.
David Pastrnak and Heinen switch worked very nicely yesterday
I think it confused Babcock/Leafs just enough
produced goals for the 1st line (Heinen in the mix for both goals) and Pasta had 2 goals (though it was thanks to Marchand mainly)
Any other lineup shuffling (not the same as regular season or after game 2-4) that has made a difference for your team or opponent?
Will they shuffle their lines? Apparently some Leaf fans/media is upset Nylander is stuck on the third line
If I am Cassidy, I am looking to exploit Nylander who has moved over from the wing to #3C. Bergeron, Krejci, Coyle take your pick. This is the obvious miss match with Kadri taking himself out of the series that the Bruins can take advantage of.
That's what I meant. He's been put back with his line mates and only then he scored.Nope
Its been mainly Marchand Bergeron Pasta for three years now
Nylander always seems to be the best fwd statistically except when it comes to real production.Except that Nylander was the Leafs best forward last night. He dominated his competition at center. Not his fault Marleau can't handle a pass anymore and Brown can't hit an open net.
