GDT: ECQF | GM3 | Boston Bruins @ Toronto Maple Leafs | ESPN

[Czechboy]

Missed the game unforunately.. first thing I did was look to see how many points Matthews, Tavares and Marner had. 1. And no Nylander. Hopefully he's back game 4. I'd keep rolling Swayman personally.

 

[Zegs2sendhelp]

He’s probably referring to Marchand committing a blatant trip and Boston scoring when the puck should have been blown dead. That was the most egregious call/no call.

Lol they were letting bertuzzi get away with all sorts of stuff right before that… good on the refs for letting both guys get there’s

The difference is bertuzzi looks like a clown and Marchand looks like a hero

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Remember everyone, this is acceptable in this series.

Plenty of holding and stick work uncalled on Toronto. Hardly worth crying over.

 

[dhfa]

Ullmark wasn't bad at all in Game 2, the offense didn't show up and the intensity wasn't there.

true but sway has some crazy streak going vs the leafs I would ride the streak

 

[Fatass]

Stop whining Leafs had 5 powerplays.

Yup. Leafs had a lot of opportunities to win the game early with those PPs. Their big boppers didn’t show.

 

[Here I Pageau Again]

Thank you Merchand. Hate playing against him but I have no horses in this race so for the time being love this guy!

He's such a force in the playoffs.

He's annoying, a pest and can actually play hockey. Truly the ideal playoff player.

 

[KCC]

Is this true? Very noteworthy.

He had one good game last game which was probably his most dominant and he’s had how many playoff series? Pathetic. Lol

 

[pld459666]

Leafs looked very disjointed the last 5 minutes and what's with guys going for a swim on the ice for no reason? Reilly and then the other D that was flopping around like a walrus right before Marchand missed the open net.

Then what was Bertuzzi doing holding the puck with Brad bearing down on him.

Tavares penalty was as legit as they come.

They lose the next one, they are done in 5 and Keefe is gone

That last 5 minutes was a clusterf***

As a Leafs fan I gotta commend your hustle. You outshot thet Leafs, out hustled the Leafs, won puck races and absolutely blanked Leafs' PP

I did not see one Bruin not hustle or be willing to take a hit to make a play. Unfortunately can't say the same about some of the Leafs brass

[Sergei Shirokov]

Whether its Lindholm for the obvious hold or McAvoy for the dive I think you gotta even that up.

Tavares was in a tough spot without his stick & wasn't much force on that grab, don't blame him for being upset he wasn't the only one committing an infraction.

Edit: Not why the Leafs lost, but didn't really love that at such a critical moment.

 

[Fatass]

Do the Bruins stay with Swayman?

 

[Divine]

Yup. Leafs had a lot of opportunities to win the game early with those PPs. Their big boppers didn’t show.

Would be nice if the Leafs top PP scorer is ready next game.

God matthews diving is so embarrassing

Remember everyone, this is acceptable in this series.

Not Omar crying again. Guy is constantly pissing his pants

 

[Strangle]

DO the leafs have another gear? That might have been their A game and maybe it's all downhill from here for them.

0/5 on the powerplay isn’t their A game

 

[StrawHatEklund]

I’d say the high stick to Mcavoy in the first directly in front of the ref that he conveniently ignored way more blatant .

One involved a goal that wouldn’t have occurred otherwise. I’ll take that as worse.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Lost in all the complaining about the refs is how bad the Leafs PP and PK have been. If they continue to lose the special teams battle the series is over.

omar tweets are 100% sarcasm right?

 

[TD Charlie]

Would be nice if the Leafs top PP scorer is ready next game.

No it wouldn’t.

 

[I am Canadian]

Both teams played well. If the Leafs don't make life harder for Swayman they will continue to fail

 

[Strangle]

Would be nice if the Leafs top PP scorer is ready next game.

I think you move Marner to pp 2 and shift Robertson into pp1

Another shooter would be nice and Marner is bad right now

 

[pcruz]

Honestly, the organization should just have that GIF playing on a loop all day, all of the pre-game, and during every stoppage.


Just to embarrass the league and its officials.

Leafs going down early a number of times including the game tying PP goal in game 2.

If embellishment is going to be called, the time is past.
