Pre-Game Talk: It's official: Leafs vs Bruins [Game 1 on Wed]

[cup67]

as a canucks fan this is an intensely difficult moral quandry, but I will be cheering for you guys.

B's aren't a quick team. If Kadri doesn't get killed he's gonna skate rings around Chara and the rest of those slugs.

we cheer you guys vs the SHARKS

**** I still can't believe the Bruins just lost to Ottawa....seriously wtf

I really wanted to see the leafs vs habs play

There's always rounds 2 and 3. A Round 3 matchup after going through Boston and Pittsburgh would be insane

Some of you guys are so pathetic.

How about you wait and see how Game 1 goes before you start being so negative?

Most of you (including me) didn't even expect the Leafs to make the playoffs.

There are ALWAYS upsets in the playoffs

 

[The Winter Soldier]

As the only poster to vote for the B's in the 1st rd, I'm happy.

Kessel's going to have it rough with the jeering from the Bruins fans but lucky for him, he's gotten accustomed to it over the past three years or so. Home ice advantage will be huge in this series, hopefully the Leafs have some momentum on their side before it moves back to the ACC.

 

[sampollock]

Love it. Fight it out and rough it up. Goon hockey

Someone tell me the damn schedule, I need to book off work

I really hope they play Tuesday Thursday Saturday and not Wednesday Friday Sunday

 

[Garbs]

Lupul will have to be the difference.

They're too good at containing Kessel.

Man I'm so depressed.

 

[LeeIs]

Leafs in 6.

Let's go LEAFS!!!

Going to be a tough matchup. I hope we face the non-scoring (2 goal per game) version of the Bruins.

Trivia: Boston has never been eliminated in less than 7 games in past 5 years, and the team that beat them never went on to win the Stanley Cup in that time span.

 

[RhyZa]

Pick Seguin and Rask up if you're in a pool.

We'll get even less shots than usual vs the Bruins. Cycle to death, no puck moving defenseman, and physicality nullifying Kess. Going to be a short series.

 

[LeafsandSharksfan]

BURN THE Bs!

 

[TheBigThree]

The worst part is that 1st game is thursday

 

[Canadian Game]

I sure hope the Leafs don't enter this series with mentality of many of the posts in this thread. I'm excited for the series! The Leafs will give Boston a good run for their money.

 

[Thrillingbroom]

Leafs in 3.

 

[BayStBullies]

Get ready smokey; we're going to burn your damn boats!

 

[BertCorbeau]

Positive outlook: the B's have been worn down by their loaded back end schedule, and don't look like the same team at the beginning of the season

.. If, IF the Leafs can beat them in a series, you gotta think it would give Toronto the confidence that they can beat anyone and maybe they can make a run...

Exactly! People were counting out this team as soon as the announcement that the lockout was over. Give the Leafs a chance, for crying out loud.

Almost positive they won't make the B's play Tuesday since they played tonight.

I'd bet on starting Thursday.

 

[Kbs]

Here we go! Can't wait.

One positive of facing the Bruins is that the Leafs have managed to show up for every game against them this year.

 

[TheLeastOfTheBunch]

Hoping for the best. MTL would've been perfect though

It just means that we're due for all of the above!

 

[leafstilldeath*]

BRUINS you POS couldnt get it done. Stupid morons.

Bruins give your heart to God Almighty because your ass belongs to TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS

BURN THE BOATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

 

[Wilma]

Exactly who I wanted to play. Exorcise those demons.
