Max Domi has played his way into finally getting a real contract, imo. None of this 2 year, 1 year BS.

First noticeable game and in one without playoff intensity? Need a larger sample size.

 

[Barnum]

Dominant period for the leafs. Marner looked like regular season Marner that period. Keep it going. Boston is crumbling under the pressure of blowing game 5

Agree Leafs are playing well but yet it is 1-1.

 

[North Cole]

Lmao 0.500?

 

[TheNumber4]

It was a deflection iff a skate!!!

And Benoit threw it up without looking cause he was pressured hard. And it hit Maroons skate because he was also pressuring hard. Don’t know why I have to explain this, forechecks are designed to cause turnovers and did exactly that on that play.

For now

Pasta for 100 point player seems no better on the ice than a 25-point player

 

[Barnum]

For now

Exactly.
You have more patience than I do.

If you come into the first intermission with .500 goaltending and the game is tied, that's a great period.

Can't imagine there's many games where a goalie has a .500 save percentage playing for an entire period and the team isn't down.

 

[KnightofBoston]

Bruins played like a bunch a trash cans

Then again, if the roles were reversed, I’d be extremely nervous watching my team dominate like that yet the score is tied 1-1 off 2 shots against.

 

[Chips]

1 goal, 3 assists through 4.333 games.

Fair enough, though 4 games being a small sample size isn’t the same as ppg over a larger streak you know what I mean? I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets another short deal, or maybe a team does the new super long, super cheap thing we’ve seen with depth the last couple years


I really haven’t felt him much this series, it’s been uneven to say the least

 

[sampollock]

Ruin should have expected that the last would come out with a bit urgency

 

[Michel Beauchamp]

Is Tavares going to lead his team to victory tonight?

He had a bad series against Florida but he's PPG in postseason in his career.

That’s the thing a period is a period, and you’d rather be the stellar defensive team plying that bad than the normally offensive team trying to weather the storm

Leafs were bound to play some good hockey at some point, hopefully the Bruins wake up but they could probably sleep walk and still win

 

[HockeyVirus]

Marner looks good. He doesn't want to be traded this summer.

Upping his trade value and potential future contract with his new team

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Buccigross is such a bozo. I don’t care where all these dudes played in college.

Depends what he's after. You can see the contracts the Wings were passing out to Mid-Tier Players the last couple offseasons to get a feel for what he could command if he's not too picky.

 

[StrawHatEklund]

Fluke? Nah Bostons forecheck and Benoits inability to handle that forecheck created that chance.

Forechecking doesn’t automatically create a deflected puck that lands perfectly for your teammate unmarked in front of goal. So, yes, fluke. Or does forechecking lead to a perfected deflected pass unmarked to your teammate most of the time?

Forechecks are designed to cause turnovers. It doesn’t do it everytime, but if it does that’s a feather in the cap for the forechecking team.

 

[Hank Plank]

Did Treliving really say the answers are in the room?

 

[HockeyVirus]

Bruins dive fest is getting old

 

[Mickey Marner]

Lazy penalty

 

[ACLEVERNAME]

Slewfoot. 2 games

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Dumb play by Nylander.
Took away a good chance too.
