Game 1 7:11 PM - Toronto Maple Leafs @ Boston Bruins | NBCSN, NESN, CBC, SN (4K), TVAS. Part II

Don't know how anyone can blame the score on Rask. He's been pretty solid and the Bruins D has been sluggish since about the 10 minute mark in the 1st period.

He made the last 2 or the game is over.

I would encourage my fellow leafs fans to stay classy and realize this is only 2 periods of what is likely a 7 game series.

Leafs are their own worst enemy. They will find a way to loose this game. And yes, you are allowed to quote this message when it happens.

 

[Trocity]

I admire the sacks of Toronto fans. Seriously, you guys love your team. You guys have suffered nightmare playoff defeats to the Bruins via choking away leads in game 7 and you are up by 2 in Game 1 and you are just laying into Boston fans LOL love it.

 

[MoreMogilny]

Rielly has been the best defenseman this game by far

Easily. Great zone exits and poise with the puck.

 

[northeastern]

Not to celebrate early but I think some people will eat crow. I still think this series is going to 7 games but it won't be a cake walk like a lot said.

Anyone saying it was a cake walk (either way) is an idiot. These teams are made for long series...

Also never celebrate too early haha ;-)

LMAOO

 

[Morbo]

Toronto capitalized on Boston's huge mistakes, but I wouldn't count on that pattern to continue.

which one?

What the hell is going on with Friedman's hair?

The SN hair stylist must f***ing hate him, lol. His hair is always a disaster.

This forum massively underestimated the Leafs tbf.

 

[Coach Parker]

Never count a win for a Leafs team going into the third period in Boston. Never. This was always going to go to seven games but tonight is the chance for the Leafs to exercise the demons moving forward for the series or to double the narrative and have the doubt in their heads compounded.

Dear Boston fans,

Quit copying and pasting from our pathetic game thread last night.

Love,
Lightning fans

P.S. - Yeah, it does piss you off, doesn't it?

 

[Lshap]

Can you please make this thread live as well?

done. thanks

ruthless

 

[DANTHEMAN1967]

Chara is so slow, looks like the Leafs speed is just too much for the old man.

 

[Coach Parker]

So far the refs have called this game pretty fairly. Without the refs aiding boston like last year, they lose this series.

Last year the better team won fair and square. Leafs choked and that is a thing of the past. No need to bring up last year unless you want to remind everyone of the choke.

 

[Mikeshane]

What are you doing Debrusk?! Very awkward trying to receive that pass and then he goes and slams himself into the boards for no reason.

Go big or go home

 

[mm11]

the guys from Toronto look like the greatest show on earth

 

[SanDogBrewin]

“Odd-man rushes
1st 15:40 - Johnsson beats McAvoy
1st 3:29 - Tavares on bad change
1st 0:05 Marleau around Acciari
2nd 17:13 Marner SH DeBrusk bobble
2nd 1:35 Nylander on bad Grz pinch
2nd 0:37 Tavares beats Krug
2nd 0:01 Kapnanen beats McAvoy”

But some are blaming Rask. Leafs simply out skating the Bruins.

Most people had Boston in 4 or 5 where did 7 come from?

was taking about the games in boston. If memory serves me correct games 1 and 2 were jokes when it came to the refs.

Easily. Great zone exits and poise with the puck.

Yeah he’s a solid #3 maybe #2 defenseman
