But it kinda does
Marner has points making it seem like he’s played well in playoffs
Reality is he’s one of our main pieces we need to lead in playoffs for success and neither he nor 34 have

Even though point production shows they haven’t been bad so yeah

It’s pretty much why they get paid what they get paid and we have very little cap room to improve
Marner has played well in the playoffs his whole career. he has 41 points in 42 playoff games including 8 in three games this year.

Almost true...

Marner disappears in series winning games. He's 0 goals 3 assists in 9 games were the leafs could have won the series.

Leafs need to win this in 5. Looks like Boston is going to win their series in 5 and the last thing we want is Boston resting while Tampa tries running around every game and cheapshotting our players without penalties or suspensions.

Leafs need to play the best game of their series tomorrow night. If they want to motivate themselves on the basis of "process" they are down 2-1 in the series and need to even up the score on the play quality and dominance factor. Put your best foot forward to start the game and dictate. Don't think about a split going home. Need to grab the 3-1 lead. Lightning keep talking about last year, but the Leafs need to be all business a la Raptors vs Warriors in 2019.

Leafs were fortunate for the quick whistle which resulted in Points and TB 4th goal not counting while the puck was still clearly loose and sitting at Sammy's pads.

Once the whistle blew if was the correct call to overrule the goal, the blowing the whistle was the mistake that cost TB the game. In fact it happened twice in the game only the other TB goal after the whistle was allowed to stand because of the continuation rule.

If this had happen to our Leafs we would be furious we got cheated by the Refs. Refs miss penalty calls all the time in games and certainly Leafs could have had more PP opportunities but Leafs didn't have any actual goals called back. Leafs were very fortunate to come away with a win as Rielly OT goal really should have only tied the game at 4-4, and of course OT wouldn't have even been possible with Leafs losing 4-3 in regulation even with ROR buzzer beating included.
You really are a f**kin joke

And going into this year, he had 33 points in 39 games, not quite as impressive, and well below his regular season production rate.

Look Marner's a great player, and I wouldn't use the word "disappeared" as that's way too strong, but let's not pretend that there weren't a few years there where his production in the playoffs dipped well below his regular season pace. Those years are long gone though and it shouldn't surprise anyone that he's a much better player now than he was several years go.

No need to pretend. All players have adjustments to the playoffs Marner included.

Tampa is lucky for not getting any penalties for repeatedly slashing and poking Sammy after every play. Maybe that is why they got a quick whistle?

Yep this .. If the team has any humility (and they should after all of these first round exits), they would realize that they got outplayed last night and stole one on the road.

Now they have an opportunity to grab ahold of this series and their play to reflect it.

It's like you're not even trying anymore. Your game is off.

At least Interactif has some better material.

I wanna know when a team has ever been able to slash a goalies stick out of their hands like TB has done twice now without a call being made, or doing what Kucherov has done like 2 or 3 times by intentionally poking at the goalie when the play is blown dead or nowhere near the net? I feel like if we tried that we're in the box easily and everybody says it's an obvious penalty.

Tampa is à subsidy team. If they ever get bad calls the entire arena will leave and watch NASCAR and Golf. Joke of a team. Potemkin ville arena and fans.

If the Refs call them fairly they would have a high school arena and wnba level fanbase and make the Ottawa Senators look like the Dallas Cowboys on Super Bowl weekend.

Stamkos is a shame to the GTA

I’m glad Keefe and Dubas(yelling at the fan) have shown some emotion and fight back. Keefe isn’t holding his words back. He’s calling it like he sees it.

So are any Tampa players getting fined or suspended?

What the f*** is this...
If they gave fines or suspensions for all this stuff, there would be no players left to play. I hope you didn’t watch playoffs in the 80’s-early 2000’s, your head would explode watching the stuff that happened back then. The Maroon play was probably suspendable, but we all know that’s not happening
