According to Lebrun there is an idea being floated around that would see the Leafs play at least some of their playoff games in Buffalo.

This would require the Canadian government loosen restrictions on the 14 day qurantine currently in place.

Be weird for them to win the cup they are going to win this year in Buffalo.

March 25th If I'm not mistaken

Would be tough for Leafs fans to get to them with the Canadian covid rule though no?

Wouldn't put it past you guys to rent a hotel in Buffalo for like a month straight to enjoy the run though if it came to that.

I hope that by late May/early June the borders will be opened. If anything, the US will be safer by that point given their rate of vaccination.

If they play in Buffalo, why does Canada have to loosen restrictions. They would just need to show up.

talk about putting the cart before the horse. Leafs are ripe to get upset in the first round of the playoffs as per usual. Canadian division is making leaf media overconfident to say the least

Lebrun also reported that the Jets would play in Minnesota if they won the division, and that all the other playoffs teams would be matched with an American NHL city in case they win the Canadian division and need to play against an American team. This isn't some overconfident move by the Leafs, it is the NHL planning in case American teams are not allowed to travel into Canada during the playoffs.
