Why not us? I believe

One game at a time

A blowout would be real nice here, get the offense going and the crowd alive

 

[fahad203]

Matthews with 5 goals. Book it

 

[1specter]

Matthews and Tavares, it's your turn now.

 

[kevsh]

If they play a full 60 like they did last night, as close to a perfect playoff game (esp. on the road) as I've ever seen from this team, they can push this to 6.

Given this team's recent playoff history though I am still skeptical, plus only scoring 2 a game isn't sustainable. Bad bounces, puck luck and all that. But at least for one game we saw this team's potential. If they do it again tomorrow, I may just have to start believing.

we need to play with the same anger as the florida pa announcer. Last game that was easy, this game they will have to somehow channel that energy. Then win game 6 because you can’t have your final game of the season end with that rendition of the national anthem

 

[Buds17]

That next win at home has been long overdue. The timing is perfect.

This is what I have been envisioning. Start like game 2, but no slacking off and f***ing it up.

I think a trouncing would go a long way in putting the Panthers back on their heels mentally.

There are a lot of people who believe in manifesting things into reality, I am firmly on that train for the time being. Right now, the focus is on manifesting a game 5 win.

 

[the squared circle]

as silly as it sounds, i have always believed in the "one game at a time" theory - just win the next one. Don't think 'we have to win four straight'. Just think we have to win the next game.
Obviously, statistically, easier said than done.

Also, I have been asked to go to tomorrow's game - i politely declined - I have been to one game in each of the first two rounds, and they lost both. As Stevie Wonder would say..."Very superstitious...."

Exactly, not 4 straight. Just win one game 4 times.

 

[ECanuck]

We gave them NOTHING last game. Keep it that way one game at a time.

 

[AvroArrow]

3-1 series

31 teams in NHL history have come back from being down 3-1. This is very doable.

 

[Nineteen67]

Game 4 was the best effort from a Leafs team I’ve seen in years.

Keep that going and they have a chance to win the next game.

 

[SprDaVE]

Leafs have not done nearly good enough on home ice since game 2 of round 1. They have to give the home fans a great game and more than 2 goals.

 

[Rob Brown]

Anyone else going to the game tomorrow? Weather looks amazing, it's going to be buzzing tomorrow afternoon in the lead up to the game.

 

[ChiTownLeafer]

If Florida can come back down 3 -1 against the bruins, with 2 games on the road, the leafs are very much in it also. Doesn't even need to be perfect but show up for the full 60 mins and we can win.

I'll probably be downtown. If things goes well, strip club to celebrate. If things don't go well, strip club to make myself better

 

[Rob Brown]

Wow I'm finally allowed to like posts again. Feels good man.

 

[QJo]

Double super ultra literal must win tomorrow.

 

[Phion Keneuf]

I don’t wanna jinx it, but Barkov is so overrated.

Looks like Tavares out there.

 

[Sypher04]

Whole team was engaged and we played them tight and well in our zone, but it should not be understated how much Woll swallowing up pucks and not giving out huge juicy rebounds helped us

 

[Suntouchable13]

Since the salary cap, the first 0-3 come back happened approx. 5 years after that lockout. Then the next one 4 years later. It’s been 9 years since the last one, I’d say we are overdue

Panthers fans are not happy with him. Outside of game 3 and his lucky goal in game 2 he's been pretty ass.

If anything we've been getting cooked by Lundell's line.
