There isn't a glass house large enough to contain this post.

There are a lot of posters from every fanbase that are wrong sometimes. It was clearly a penalty that was missed - the main difference to me is that he wasn't bleeding. The linesman went over to ROR and probably asked him what happened and then told him to leave the ice, he probably said 'I was high-sticked', and so they decided to discuss it. It's not some grand conspiracy lol.
Actually shocking to me that people ripped Leafs fans for complaining about refs last round (same when Oilers fans for example had an issue last round), and after one game of the second round that the Leafs lost, we now have all these Leaf hating white knights advocating acting as though the refs are biased towards the Leafs. I'm quite confident if I looked back at Jimmy's posts you'd find some of him telling Leafs fans to stop whining about the refs, losers blame the refs etc.

Radio was talking about this idiot. He's a Habs fan who hates the Leafs and thinks he's doing some sick burn by buying tickets to leafs playoff home games not involving his team and jerseys for other teams he doesn't cheer for?
Thanks for pumping more money into Scotiabank Arena then the average Leafs fan ever will lol

Everyone does it, I’ve been guilty myself. Feel sometimes the refs are out to get my team. Lol. It’s the nature of the game.

For sure, difference is you have neutral, non-Panthers fans in here whining about the refs in a game their team didn't even play in, in a game that the team they want to lose ended up losing. It's sad lol.

They controlled the game 5v5 which made it happen, thankfully majority of the game is still played that way. Just need to limit the breakdowns and hope that the refs keep the penalty ratio down.

It’s on the game sheet lol.
You’ve done it, so that’s weird. Everyone does it at some point.
Yeah I hear ya. When other fan bases attack other fan bases for whining that is when it becomes an issue. It’s just toxic.
Folks should just focus on the game. Heck if we all came together as one and demanded better reffing the league would do something….ok maybe not, but it was worth a try lol
Anyway getting off topic here. I don’t care who wins just want to continue to see good fun hockey . Not sure if Bob can keep it up but if he can think this will be a long series. Toronto is dangerous and even a goalie close to his best will let some goals in, I think Toronto needs to try and contain them left them way open last game.
Also, what’s up with the two days off? Boooo.

Agreed on all accounts.
The two days off is a bit lame, especially because there's another two days off between game 3 and 4.

Its just another way for haters to hate. Whenever the fanbase they dont like criticizes the refs its "Whining," and when it goes the other way they are the first to complain.

Keep laying the body on him, we were able to wear Hedman down by finishing checks. Tkachuk is obviously much younger with less wear and tear but just keep taking the body to him every chance we get.
Can people learn what the word fair means?
Fair is not what NHL officials usually call, that is them equaling calls.
Fair is if the NHL called penalties as they should be called regardless of who has more penalties, what the score is, who took it, who it was on... it will never be fair.

Yeah, I think the implication here is that there were some obvious calls missed that could have benefited the Panthers. For instance, the really obvious goaltender interference shortly before the high sticking call at the end of the game.

Hold up, now Leafs fans are complaining about their only penalty the whole game?! What an entitled bunch
And the Leafs don’t embellish high sticks? Matthew Knies, anyone?
Sure, get the call right. But the problem is the refs always call things in the Leafs favour. Ref looking right at Brodie who high sticks Hagel - nothing. No ref sees O’Rielly get high sticked, and they watch the jumbotron to see it and then call it. Do you not see a double standard here?
Panthers had to go through Boston and that reffing disaster, they’re used to kicking ass at 5v5. I have no doubt they’ll come out of this series to play the winner of Carolina - NJD, whether the refs try and stop them or not.
When did I complain? You’re complaining. Wtf is going on with you, man?
I’m a leaf fan, I know you’re wrong lol. If there’s a double standard I didn’t see it last night. Not much these refs can do to go back in time. Although trust me, I wish they would.
So the Leafs could have won game 6 last year and who knows, maybe gone to the final like Tampa did
Exactly, that’s what fair means. Panthers committed more infractions and they got more penalties. This is what everyone wants and deserves.
Maurice and panthers fans are upset because they though “oh we have 3 penalties now, refs aren’t allowed to call anything else on us!” And that wasn’t the case

Do you mind rephrasing this so it makes sense?
People don't want fair calls, they want even calls, there is a difference and I was pointing it out, not complaining like the ones yelling for "fair" calls.
If the NHL made fair calls, Edmonton would be on the powerplay every time McDavid stepped on the ice and I wouldn't even be mad about it, get faster defenders if the guys you have can't keep up.
Game management is the most frustrating thing to watch, call it by the book.

Not worried about the Laughs. Usually my butthole is clenched and i feel every game is a loss waiting to happen as a cats fan
Not on Tuesday. After forging our game in the fires of Hell (boston), the leafs dont feel threatening at all. They just dont have the fortitude. Theyre not a bad team, its just the Panthers are something different right now.
I feel bad for Laughs fans. They have no idea whats coming

We’ll see, man. We’ll see
Honest question; why was the high stick on O'Reilly reviewable, but the high stick late in Game 6 against Tampa was not?
Panthers are going to come in hot tonight, but if the Leafs can weather the initial barrage it's our game and series for the taking.
The Leafs have two levels, one for when they're feeling the heat and one for when they feel in control. When they feel in control, they try to be too cute and don't work hard enough in the corners. When they think they're in trouble, you see what this team is capable of. Goaltending will factor of course, but this series is still Leafs in six.
