Series Talk: Leafs vs Bruins - 'ah shit here we go again' edition -- Full schedule post #933

[DarkKnight]

Why haven’t the dates been announced yet, the whole east is dialed in?

Pastrnak just shoots and scores at will against the Leafs it feels like. Every shot goes in and he's always left alone for his one timer. Another that just seems to score against the Leafs is Zacha for some reason, but maybe I'm not remembering right.

Perhaps our coach will have noticed that and will employ one of his super strategies to neutralize Pastrnak.

Boston is going to easily win the series, the Leafs simply can’t outscore the questionable goaltending and pathetic defensive ability of the team, and that’s expecting that 34, 16, 88, 91 actually produce some offence which they seem to have the inability of doing in the playoffs……….

The sad part is that they are actually built to outscore questionable goaltending and defence. With all that money upfront, which leads to very little for the rest of the roster. My hope is that dumb dumb behind the bench actually keeps Marner and Matthews apart so it’s not so easy to shut the Leafs offence down.

If he hasn't noticed that the PP has gone cold since he forced Rielly back on it, I doubt he notices something like that

Nah, the only thing our coach can do is just resort to playing Mitch and Auston 25+ minutes each and hope for the best. He has no clue

Maybe someone can get a note into one of his fortune cookies ?

Good players find a way to get open and score. Especially on the PP. It's not really that simple.

Bruins in 3

 

[Welsh Maple Leaf]

We're going to win this one - I was informed that the previous GM was the issue, so I expect a different result.

 

[leafsfan5]

the defensive pairs will be really interesting

I'm hoping we don't play Boosh, he will get eaten alive

Can we ban all leaf posters that are already guaranteeing a bruins win for when the leafs make the 2nd round? Lol
I get being cautious, but some of ya have more loser mentality than what you claim the leaf players have lol. No need to be so insecure.

Being a fan isn't to give up before the games even happen, even if it'll be a tough one. (And I don't give a shit about the past).
Go leafs go.

All about the Good vibes.
Let's f***in' do it!


I'm half joking about the banning, stop crying about it. Good fun. Good vibes. Keep it gooood!

We're 3rd in hits (2nd in hits per game) and 7th in majors. Surely results will be better now that we're big and mean.

When you win 1 series in 7 years, you don't exactly inspire confidence.

Not sure the most appropriate reply to this:

Are we still looking at a Saturday start for our series?

To be fair, there's a very big difference between what someone wants to happen, and what they think will happen.

In defense of the pessimist in me, he's got a lot more evidence than the optimist in me....

The West is not. Though sounds like we'll be starting Saturday night.

 

[TorMapleJays]

It’s just that the second period reminded us of the second round last year and it was a bitter taste.

Who cares that the Florida Panthers have 1110 PIM compared to the 855 PIM Toronto has.

PS Boston only has like 710.

 

[All Mod Cons]

We're going to win this one - I was informed that the previous GM was the issue, so I expect a different result.

And if we do win, will you finally give up?

 

[Canadian Finn]

Ya I don't care about the past .

the best kind of leaf fan right here.

 

[Leaf Fans]

we aren't winning this series.

I think they should play the games anyway just in case you are not from the future.

We're going to win this one - I was informed that the previous GM was the issue, so I expect a different result.

Who informed you of that, and do they have any credibility?

 

[bax]

They need to make sure they don't let cross ice one timers to Pasta go through, and if they do, they better block it.

Its always the same play on the powerplay for Boston, behind the goal line to Marchand for a cross ice one timer to Pasta.

This is where I'm hoping guys like Lyubushkin and Edmundson really step up and show why they were picked up.
