GDT: 2/26/18 - 7:30PM EDT - Toronto vs Tampa Bay

Just saying what? That you could have beat us if you added Matthews and us adding Palat, McDonagh, Miller, and Kuch? We ended the game with 9 forwards. I wish to play these turds in the playoffs...we beat them in 4.

Leafs/Bolts have traded wins this season. Tampa is 2-1. Leafs 1-1-1. Tampa scored a total of 8 goals. Leafs 7. You're favoured to win, no doubt, but the Leafs wont play push over.

I look forward to a healthy matchup if we somehow meet in the playoffs. If you wanna be considered the best, you gotta beat the best teams right!

Killorn over Erne not even close until proven otherwise, Killorn actually hits the scoreboard. Erne wins you a shift or two, Killorn can win you games. Don't care how good Erne is at protecting the puck if he doesn't get involved in the play like Killorn can.

Erne played like this last year too for the first couple games he got called up then fizzled out. Guy needs to start making offensive plays, he can take the puck deep and protect it but then makes "safe" plays and just chips it, not sure if he's scared to make an offensive turnover and get benched or what. 0 assists in 36 NHL games, 5 goals doesn't make up for that.

And I don't even like Killorn.

Erne has a fantastic game last night and he is capable of doing that. His problem is being able to maintain that level for any period of time, he will disappear for weeks on end and then play an excellent game where you think ???? Maybe he’s got it going ??? He is a depth guy like Conacher and Paquette and is not on Killorns level and I agree I’m not a fan of Killorns.

I believe we comfortably beat the leafs in a series but let's stay classy, like yzergod would.

Someone should make avatars for everyone with a theme of “WWYD” for that period of time after the regular season.

Plekanec played like he was a double-agent last night, sent in by Montreal to sabotage the Leafs. There are whispers of Montreal having a deal ready for him to come back next summer.

Oh boy, all-time smack. Worst fanbase ever.

Tomas Plekanec . . . skates out to center . . . his pass for Pacoiretty . . . knocked down

So he is capable of emotion...

Every time I start to get down on Johnson, someone reminds me of a playoff moment. It's no wonder he's endeared himself to management and the coaching staff. Only a couple of guys have come up bigger in the playoffs (Kuch, Hedman) in this era of the Lightning. I'm now not so sure Yzerman's gonna try to move him this off-season, as pretty much all of us (myself included) have assumed throughout the year.

I was thankful they didn't allow anyone to go after TJ in the trade wars. He's money in the playoffs.

 

[Steazy Doo]

TJ was our offense that postseason. Man was he good.

The Jedi council will disapprove of this....

He was the Detroit series - Kucherov picked it up a bit as the postseason wore on, and Hedman was just a god night in, night out.
