Beauty GDT Ali, I can't wait, I have been waiting all year for this, don't let me down boys.

 

[La Masse]

Hopefully the refs dont call more penalties on the Leafs like they have all year lol

 

[rent free]

the leafs and bruins are both 34-34-1 all time against each other in the playoffs. its gonna be the 70th playoff meeting

 

[Loosie]

If it's the 67th playoff appearance, they cannot be 34-34 against each other because that would mean they have played 68 games already.

so let's use 5.5 games as the length of an average series. This means that out of the 67 playoff appearances by the Leafs they have played Boston 12 times.

That is 67 playoff appearances by the Leafs, not 67 playoff game aagisnt the Bruins.

In the 67 playoff appearances by the Leafs they have played 68 GAMES against Boston.


Edit: I see this has been addressed.

Bruins are unbeaten against the Leafs this year when Matthews was on the roster.
Matthews is on the roster tonight.
Bruins will win.

Got it.....I misinterpreted the original post.

So 67 = Last Cup

34-34 = 2 X AM34

87% of people know that you can make up anything you want with numbers.

Bruins have won 100% of the series against the Leafs when losing by 3 goals with under 10min to play in a game 7.

Yes, a game when you guys were rested on a home stretch when we were on our 3rd game in 4 days is DEFINITELY a good representation. But we have to forget the rest of the games in the past 2 seasons because.. well those facts just don't fit our narrative

 

[NyQuil]

It's a video that's only for Boston fans and those types of biased videos shouldn't be in the OP posts of main board GDTs so happy it was excluded

Hell even the 2nd last media link shouldn't be in it

Obviously nitpicking but they're supposed to be not biased for 1 team, even though I expect you just brought your own GDT over from the Bruins board to here without having that intention

Wow, I can tell you haven’t seen a lot of playoff GDTs.

 

[DanM]

No Romanuk. It's a victory for Leafs fans before the series even starts.

So true!

 

[VanIsle]

Bruins are 1-0 with Chara and Matthews in the line up, Matthews held pointless.
I am like FOX news, bending the truth to be correct.

60% of the time, it works everytime.

I for one am super excited, and if my team does lose, I will continue to live my life and everything will still be alright, this big old world will keep spinning round.

Not my fault if the Leafs have zero win against the Bruins with Matthews in the lineup this year.

Some user should change his name to can'twinwithmatthews...

 

[Brock Radunske]

Leafs fans, dont argue with B's fans when they inevitably complain about the refs. It honestly just degrades the thread.
Simply reply to each of those posts with the "Embellishment City" vids and I think it will stop.

They definitely have. I am just glad that the Bruins season did not end with the Cup or it would be a tougher pill to swallow.

Bruins ended up losing in Game 6 to Chicago when they were within a couple minutes of forcing a Game 7. What happened next made our loss easier to forget.

2 U's 2 K's 2 goals past Tuukka Rask in 17 seconds.

 

[DanM]

Great videos!

So Boston

The home teams GDT is always used.......

the leafs and bruins have played 14 playoff series against eachother

 

[The Winter Soldier]

This is big loss. Nash has been terrific for the Bruins this year.

[VanIsle]

Pulled this off NHL.com.
Tuukka Rask vs. Frederik Andersen

Rask low stick side, and Anderson also low stick side.

Well it isn;t made up, Matthews IS 4-1 against the bruins in his career. Just like Freddie is 10-1 and the Leafs are 7-1 in the last 2 years.

Having already won the Cup in 2011, knowing Bergy wouldn't have played game 7 with his ponctured lung and the fact that the Bruins eliminated the Leafs in the ultimate comeback/choke fashion made it much easier to stomach that SCF game 6 loss.

In 7 games or less, we'll see if the Leafs are able to win their first playoffs series since 03-04 or if again, they won't...

 

[WillTheThrill]

The last time the Maple Leafs played a playoff game in Boston

What a call by Jack Edwards. I got shivers and I'm a Leafs fan. Looking back, that was the best thing that could've happened! Time for revenge!

Leafs will take game one 3-1.

Wow. I guess they have a valid excuse if they lose tonight.

It would be very impressive if the Bruins somehow won this game despite missing Riley Nash. Big loss for the Bruins.
