Not playing.According to NESN crew, no Matthews for warmup
Heh Jack offHoping the Bruins send Jack off with a dominating series clinching win.
He deserves it and we all deserve one more iconic Leaf eulogy.
Totally agree. How are you gonna go steal another player’s nickname? Especially one know for being clutch in the postseason.Does the nickname Papi make anyone else want to punch someone, or that just me?
FWIW, Bergeron was injured in game #82 vs Montreal-This only makes sense if you're arguing they got injured in Game 82. No one has said that's the case. A lot of speculation to unnecessarily hate on players playing 82 Games.
I feel so bad for Matthews
You don’t get to be an athlete of his stature without a huge will to compete. I’m sure this is eating him up inside.Matthew’s not playing?
Is this just cover for his bad play? Cover for a first round exit? Cover for failure?
Or Pasta who hurt his shoulder in game 1 vs FLA. Or the fact that the Bruins beat Florida 3 times, TOR and TB beat them a combined 1 time. No passes for us so screw everyone else. But shit happens. No one cried over Bergeron, Krejci and Ullmark for Boston last year.
Disagree. I’m all for calculated risks when the time is right. Chasing a 70th goal with the Bruins waiting on the other side just feels shortsighted to me
His little tummy hurt?It's remarkable that Matthews leads the Leafs in both goals and assists (and that he's not even going to play tonight)

If you watched the Bruins last 2 games, you would have seen that they were "playing" and not playing. Going through the motions just trying to avoid injury, unlike last season. They learned their lesson
Quiet old man ModoIsn't Toronto's record actually better without Matthews than with him? Or close to it?
Wouldn't pen the obit just yet.
