Thanks a lot, Flamers. You pricks!

Matthews will be playing tonight. The Leafs have really focused on trying to get him to 70. Can't say I am surprised. I bet he gets at least 10 shots on net tonight if he does not score first.

Imagine if he got hurt tonight and didn’t get to 70.

It's a mean nothing game for both teams so I expect zero defence from either team as Matthews guns for 70 goals and Kucherov guns for 100 assists and a commanding point lead.

Lightning gonna troll the Leafs one last time this regulation season?

Both teams on 3 game losing streaks as well, I know I sure as hell wouldn't want to be going into the playoffs with a 4 game losing streak.

All they've been playing for the last 2 weeks is individual stats since their playoff spots have been locked in for awhile.

4 games on tonight. None of them mean a thing.

Tomorrows games only sort out whether Vegas (Probable) are our 3rd place opponent or not.

Season could end now and it wouldn't matter much. Gatre reciepts I guess.

LOL that Detroit got two garbage W's against montreal, needing extra time and late tying goals in both, and still miss playoffs like they fully deserve to. Pittsburgh similar fate of rallying too late, and, well, having guys like Karlson that have no interest whatsover in postseason.

Everybody wants 69....

ps I guess I can wonder why the media is acting as if 70goals is a record breaking feat or something.

Leafs goal is not to get outshot 29-4 like they were in the second period last night.

Let Matthews cook..

Matthew’s gonna take 20 shots tonight

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Matthew’s gonna take 20 shots tonight

He's panting like a dog in heat. He wants it real bad.

 

[Porkleaker]

Matthew’s gonna take 20 shots tonight

And he's still going to wind up choking 69

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Matthews for Selke? Seriously? Even the awards are a sham. How many votes do TO media have compared to the rest of the league?

They'll all shut up when Boston takes them out, again.

Kuch will get a goal and Matthews an assist.

Matthews getting primed for the playoffs. I mean, it is purse shopping season.

 

[McShogun99]

Toronto will pull the goalie to try and get Matthews his 70th goal and then Kucherov will get his 100 assist on the empty net.
