I think the Bruins are going to make this a real physical punishing game and try and run the Leafs through the boards and out of the rink.

Flexing their physicality in this one even if they lose, will have long lasting impact on the remaining series.

This is the game plan I see the Bruins deploying and using intimidation to their advantage because it worked successfully in games #1 & 2. With last change can set the matchups and focus on Leafs players that can do the most damage on the scoreboard.

Matthews-Nylander have to put their money where their mouth is and put some points on the board tonight. Earlier the better to quiet down the Boston crowd.

Kadri needs to keep his cool. The Bruins will 100% be pushing his buttons to get into his head again. Worked like a charm in Game 1. They bait him into bad penalties and we're screwed.

Freddie needs to be solid obviously.

I think Kadri will have a big game to pay his teammates back for his bad suspension...

Freddy Andersen playoff record .. 38 games started .. 20 wins 15 losses 3 no decisions (after being pulled)..
Totals in 38 games = 2.55 GAA & .912 sv%

Break out all the cliches because it's do or die.
20 minutes at a time, come out ahead after 60 and get another 60. Repeat.

Move our feet? Get pucks in deep? Get bodies in front? Play our game? Get pucks in deep? Put pucks on net? Win those battles? Get pucks in deep? Keep it simple? Pay the price?

Not optimistic
Even if they win this one
They waited too long before trying to play playoff hockey
And Komarov will probably play 20 minutes

win or lose, Naz gets the C and bring in a nasty winger like Vander Kane next year

We're gonna give the C to the guy that lost his cool and put his team a man down for 3 games in a playoff series? I'm going to assume you're joking.

I hope Babcock doesn't do something stupid like overplay Plekanec. With Kadri back, I hope we only see like 6 minutes of Plekanec and we double shift Matthews and Kadri to play with Johnsson and Kapanen.

I'm happy with how Plekanec played in games 3 and 4... but let's not kid ourselves... Kadri is significantly better than Plekanec in every aspect.

If we are going to win this series, we need Freddy to play like he did 90% of the year and get out of this funk he's been in for the past month. All players go hot and cold but he has gone cold. Need him to bail us out once in a while.

Could be black armband Sunday.

The Leafs are going to have to play out of their minds.

Deep down I really feel like this series was lost in 1 game.

Barely optimistic right now, but this is my team.
