A lot of defensive woes can be fixed with Cernak replacing Raddysh. Eyssimont instead of Jeannot gives us a massive speed boost.
You can close the game out with:
Killorn-Bellemare-Cirelli
Hedman-Cernak
Coop needs to get Bellemare in on the faceoffs in the defensive zone draws, he's 63% in this series. Hagel doesn't need to be out there in the final minutes and you get 2 centers incase one gets kicked.

The real big cat showed up. Every game I'm posting the rap intro for big cat. Esy is our big playoff acquisition and black ace. Let that ball of hate and energy play. 2-0 with him flying around out there.

I love how Hedman is like “bro wake up and massage my back you fool” to the trainer.
Avs fan here in peace. Great win and love the confidence amd battle in this team.
I'm believe you guys are going to win it all.
Perhaps I may drop by and join you for the rest if the playoffs.
Vasi is back let's keep it rolling.

Hedman looked like he was not well all game - he was moving slow and it looked like it took a lot of effort.

Nice comments! Especially “It’s happened, it’s over, we’re still alive.”
I’m so happy Eyssy’s back! I love him!

we've out played the Leafs. We look better than last year. IDK what you are saying

Yeah agreed, as a team we've played better in this series than against Leafs last year, so when Vasi found himself again there is still hope!
We're all huge Vasy fans, that goes without saying, but listening to the coverage today you would think he had a 50 save, shutout masterpiece last night. He played very well and made some big saves at key times. Every goalie who plays in the NHL can do that on occasion and Vasy's record of doing it is unmatched in this era so I'm not saying he shouldn't be praised for his performance, but enough with hyperbole. He played a good game. That's what he get's paid very handsomely to do and it's about time he did because we are in the predicament we're in largely on his shoulders.

I like to look at opposing teams' newspapers every now and then; the Toronto Star had reader comments about last nights game. Almost every commenter spoke of inevitable doom for the fallen leafs. And it's NOT a reverse psych thing. Being that these are actual newspaper readers and not just tictokkers, it shows what the mature, experienced fans think and how they see history repeating itself.
No complaints about particular plays or "blown calls" or really anything specific. Their doom is gathering, and, lets face it, last night's game was a kick in the balls for those fans that are 0fer a million in clinching games.

Did you see Dubas grab his stuff after the game and the look on his face ? I am in in Nova Scotia and watched on Sportsnet so perhaps you may not have.
Point is the pressure is gonna mount on these guys and outside of O'Reilly they will wilt.
Win the next one at home and keep playing your game the way you are and you will win this series I believe
I feel a little bad, because later I saw another close up, slow motion replay of this and it does look like the curved part of the blade could have hit his throat or chin as Knies hunched over foward and Cole's stick comes up under his arm - I think that's why Knies reacted that way. But regardless, the stick didn't come up above the shoulder, so as I understand it, technically that's not a highsticking penalty.

Was thinking exactly the same - Belly used to be the FO guy for the Avs in money time.
The big guns have more weight here when an EN goal is in play

"If the Leafs lose this series they will have beaten themselves."
If the Lightning lose this series, they most certainly will have beat themselves with just atrocious goaltending and D. Leafs have been outplayed for all but, what, Gm2 and ~20minutes the rest of the series?

Florida needs to drag Boston to 7 and win, we must drag this to 7 and win, the true battle my brothers and sisters lies across Alligator Alley. This is the whey.

I don't have the time to listen to that clip, but please tell me it was Kypreos or the douchebag producer saying it. Justin Bourne has, at least in the past, been a voice of reason and I'd hate it if he's become a hot take artist talking Leafs-driven platitudes because that's what sells.

It was the host, not the producer. I don't know who any of them are besides Kypreos.
