Grant is the type of guy I'd totally accidentally on purpose trip if I saw on the street and then accidentally on purpose fall on top of him with my elbow directed right to his mouth.

I hope Recrutes shuts down at the end of the year so he could go back to cleaning toilets.
Its the pettiness. But I bet he is lurking and grinning ear to ear that we are even menchening him.

I wouldn't condemn the Leafs too harshly. This is the first run for these guys and they usually flop in such a situation. Just like we swept the Lightning one year but they came back the next and beat us.

Last year was their first run. Matthews was far better last year against Washington than he has been against Boston.

He's been brutal offensively & defensively. Barely makes an effort to backcheck.

Nylander is invisible, uninvolved & a perimeter player. If he was in Montreal he'd be getting the Chucky treatment.

OTOH Marner has been great these playoffs. Very impressed.

First two game Bruins torch the leafs on the powerplay.

They come back to Toronto to play the Rogers Maple Leafs and the leafs get 1 penalty in 6 periods. lol Not a penalty tonight.

How predictable and obvious is that?

1. Klingberg 22
Tied at 2 with 21: Subban, Josi, Karlsson, Hedman
Tied at 20: Burns, Hamilton, Jones

That's at 5-on-5 if I'm not mistaken, right?

All situation, the leader is Subban with 44 primary points. Hedman has 40, and Doughty has 35. Burns with 42, Carlson 41.

Where did you get the all situation?

Every stat tells you Doughty doesnt belong... freaking ridiculous that Jones and Burns are not there, they both absolutely carried their teams.

Ovy delivers on his guarantee that the series will be tied going back to Washington. Honestly the series should be over. Columbus seems to create nothing on their own. The caps just blew the first 2 games with terrible defensive coverage, bad turnovers and poor goaltending. They played a pretty much perfect game today though.
Guaranteeing we wont swept in the first round. Wow! Joe Nameth Mark Messier legend type stuff !

OV :silly:

More leaf fans than you might think will tell you straight up Marner is or will be the best forward on the team. After this series that will be even more popular.

You dont live around here. They were talking stanley cup. They were bragging about winning 3 of 4 gainst the Bruins (without Mattews for two) Anderson better than Rask. Now that they are getting spanked they dont get to play the baby team just taking its first steps.


Before play offs began.
Mike Babcock....."we think we can beat then and they think they can beat us"
Mike Babcock....." we can play with any team in the league and beat them. We know that. Now we have to go do it"

Leafs play off hockey STINK so far. Pleks and Matthews are tied for goals. :laugh:

Pasternack in his second series ever.....11 pts

Mattews in his second series ever ...1 pt.

Earlier this year fan 590s Bob Macowan : "it is still to be determined who is the better player....MacDavid or Matthews"

Boston has a lot of rookies playing.

Just because this is a Canadiens board does not mean excuses fly for all teams.

The leafs are getting their asses kicked and it looks good on them. :nod:

The problem is some of our fans did this last year against the Rangers

And he plays with two of the best forwards in the league. Context.
so does Krug

So does Letang

So does Nurse.

So does Doughty

So do the other 5 D on Tampa

Getting a little old. Knocking a players stats by attributing his success to playing with great players.

Hedman still had to put up those numbers and he is responsible for them more than anyone else.

Hes missing his yesmen crew, he was generally told he was a fwad around here. Pretty much started with him saying hes draft Mike Mcloed over anyone but Matthews... then Subban got traded and it all went to shits.

He's trying to drive traffic to Recroutons by being unabashedly pro Habs, even while they suck, and going head on against any narrative he feels diminishes the lack of accomplishment of the team. It's all about creating Us vs. Them.

In other words he's about as useful as an inflatable tube man but without the style.

Hes not really smart, hed have a lot more support if he went the other way around, if thats what hes actually going for.
