Universe has a sick sense of humor.



Players agree with me. Coaches, too.

You are so cryptic and confusing. The Universe always wins.

 

[Blowfish]

Do it for Jacky!

Joking about migraines is never funny. Worst pain I have ever experienced.

I must be missing something. Multiple times I’ve seen other fellow migraine sufferers making this statement about joking about it. I dunno, maybe I’m just not as sensitive as some of y’all but I’ve seen nothing that resembles joking about the seriousness of them. Just as above. A pony tail too tight can sometimes escalate one, for me anyways. Helmet too tight is a legit question.

 

[Dennis Bonvie]

Hope Monty and team learned anything from last year debacle. When your at home to close it out you close it out! Give them nothing! No mercy kobra kai style! Let's go!

If Swayman starts, then it's all on the players. Not Monty.

 

[GoBs]

Zacha's win percentage on faceoffs in the series is 48.3%.

Coyle's win percentage on faceoffs in the series is 48.2%.

Charlie has been pretty bad when shorthanded, 35.3%. However, those are probably all against Matthews or Taveras. They are very good.

Sorry I was referring to game 4, but I believe they all had trouble except for Coyle later in the game.

While it seems like we have the Leafs on the ropes, bleeding, our boys better not take their foot off the gas tonight. Leafs can pile goals up quickly. Step on their throats and don't let up.

 

[Alicat]

Way too much cockiness in this thread.

 

[Kate08]

The hockey I've seen so far this series makes me think they close it out tonight.

The historical inability to do anything the easy way, coupled with my native Bostonian negativity and pessimism makes me think it will still be a long series.

I hate sports.

 

[Hockeyville USA]

Anyone else look at Sheldon Keefe with that Leafs group and get flashbacks of Tony Granato with those stacked Avalanche teams back in the day? Just woefully underprepared and unqualified to coach teams trying to win every year.

 

[Ludwig Fell Down]

We'll let it slide this time but don't let it happen again.

A friendly warning- don't ever misspell #4's name. Like, ever. That calls for a flogging then being tarred & feathered & driven off the board in disgrace.

Beliveau is a tough name to spell.

Way too much cockiness in this thread.

exactly...some seem to have short memories.

Sorry, what was that?

 

[Sheppy]

I want this to end tonight, and end in brutal fashion.

I can't handle another collapse.

 

[EverettMike]

No way the Bruins players or coaches are making plans to play Florida if they are that would make them idiots,are video judges watching footage of Florida Tampa series,I’m sure they are but that better be about all.

No, they aren't. I talked to Coyle last night. Already bought his parents airline tickets to Florida.

 

[smithformeragent]

In all seriousness, can’t f*** around and let Florida gain additional rest days while you continue to play it out and risk injury.

The order in Round 2 is tall to begin with.

Do your job and end this series on home ice tonight.

 

[Dizzay]

Someone make sure Monty's kids aren't in the building tonight messing around with the lines before game time.

Curious if Matthews takes the morning skate........if he doesn't, you have to figure he'll either be out or pretty rusty in the 1st period after not skating since the 2nd period on Saturday.

 

[Ladyfan]

Sorry, what was that?

What was what??? After last year's playoffs us fans should be cautiously optimistic...not overconfident.

I want the Bs to win tonight, but until I see the hugs and handshakes on the ice I will be nervous.

 

[Fenian24]

Way too much cockiness in this thread.

Think people would have learned after last year, or the two times with the Leafs, or the 2010 playoff with Philly or....you get the point. Finish them tonight.

I think some are expecting the Leafs to just roll over and play dead ,be nice but I doubt it ,Bruins are going to have to bring it tonight.

I'd love for the Bruins to put the doubt in them right away. Go up right away and watch them implode.

 

[Ladyfan]

I am so stressed.

 

[Ned Bouhalassa]

This game is going to be extremely poorly reffed

ABC and the scheduling, there's going to be a heavy lean for Refs to favor the leafs and try to give them a chance to push this to a game 7. I think they'll swallow their whistles in the event of a game 6, but they're going to give them that favor tomorrow night


Bruins needs to move fast and bear down on pucks, draw offensive zone penalties if you can but always be the first on pucks and move your feet, way less likely to be penalized yourself if you do so. Don't make it easy for the refs


Over under penalties the refs are going to call on Bruins? I say 5 and I take the over

Have you seen the Lafs’ PP?

 

[Otherworld]

Time to step on some necks!!!
