IMO, Bunting cheap shot on Cernak was the difference.
In more than one way:
- Cernak being out for us
- Keefe being forced to play Knies, who ended up playing amazing this series

That's hockey baby

Cernak must have had really bad concussion symptoms to be held out the whole series.

He was a bigger loss than other fan vases realize. Those choked away leads in Game 3 and 4 might not happen with him in the line up. He plays those shut down minutes and actually clears bodies out of the crease.

Totally agree. That dirty hit by Bunting likely won the Leafs the series

This stuff isn't new for us but pretty crazy to have that kind of injury list only in Round 1. Hope everyone rests up this summer and gets their body right for next year. Window is still wide open.

You could tell Point wasn't 100% after what happened with Rielly. I thought Hedman looked fantastic this series and looked like prime Hedman at times.

Kind of suprised Vasy didn't have something small going in the way he was playing, but it was all mental issues with him it seems. Psyched himself out like he did last year in round 1.

Hip impingement sounds serious and permanent. Is there a surgical solution or can you expect full recovery with a long rest and late start to the season?

Not surprised Point had another injury after that dirty ass play by Rielly. And leafs fans called him diver. Hopefully Tkachuk goes insane on some of the leafs

They have a lot of disgusting posters on the main boards. Anyone who saw that play live knew he wasn't faking it.
