The series is 3-2 with their best player playing bad. Why would this not be used for showing the series is winnable. Boston isn't playing well, we're just not being clutch. 2 games left to change that.
You're discussing this with someone who admittedly doesn't watch the games and just whines over what they imagine is happening.
I'm as much a non-believer in this group as anyone on this board. I was so fully prepared to watch last night's funeral of the core 4 & the Shanaplan that I even wore black underwear.
Again...cute but doesn't disprove anything I've said
Because unlike this core, I hate f****** losing
Then lose your marbles when they lose - trust me, they'll give you plenty of opportunity to do that.
The only thing I disagree with is the idea that Boston isn't playing well. That implies that they have something more, but the reality is that this is what they are. I think the idea that they can somehow flip a switch and start to dominate games isn't correct. They have also now lost two of their best defensemen in Carlo and Peeke. Their chance to win this series was last night.
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL that's awesome!
The reality is we are going to have plenty of opportunities to break those things down moving forward, but at least for the moment, enjoy the buzz that comes with a really strong playoff performance that you can actually be proud of - we haven't had too many of them over the last 8 years, so when they do come up, enjoy them.
I don't want the leafs to be alive. I don't want any reason or excuse to let theis core and staff come back next year.
Good advice. Winning a Cup is so damn hard, some teams are competitive forever and still never get there like San Jose. It's just not a guarantee, you need so many things to go right and it's an absolute grind. We will probably never win one, so may as well enjoy the highs in between where possible.
Agreed.
Eh i wouldn't say that. His last three have been pretty bleh
I get it; I'm pretty much right there with you.
If we pull off a miracle comeback against Boston and then get squashed by Florida, I honestly don't think the long term outlook will change.
Samsonov is probably going to be free.I play goalie for a soccer league on Thursdays and I think they're going to need to find someone else this week
I'm sure they can find someone else to allow 5 goals for the night
That’s the thing. I don’t think the outlook will change even if they beat Bruins and go toe to toe with Panthers till the very end, if our tops guys still underperform.
