Thanks. Seems like I make that mistake a lot.

Let's see what they have. Hopefully the team brings more than they did against Tampa.

They can win. They can certainly pull this off. But have to actually do it. Go and play their best game of the season.

If they can get out to a quick start, the Pens who are locked in might just go back to sleep and let this one play out. But the longer they stay in it, the tighter our boys will get (based on the Tampa game).

Really hoping the intensity is better at least for this one.

There's always the hope that the Pens can somehow come into Toronto and look past the Leafs to their series with Columbus. That's the best hope. Rather than if they sit players it is about mindset. If they are just distracted the Leafs might be able to get a jump on them and they might not be able to straighten it out after that point.

The Metro is now 100% locked up - there's 5+ points separating each of the top 4 teams from the next, with just 2 games left. Fingers crossed that the Pens rest their stars.

It was a bad loss tonight, the Leafs better come out flying on Saturday and win. We have everything to play for, while it's a completely meaningless game for the Pens, hopefully we can take it.

 

[ARoggy94]

3-0 Buds.

 

[Le Cobra]

They won't win. More likely they beat Columbus imho

 

[The Best Leafs Ever]

I think we just blew up our chance today. I think NYI or TPB will clinch with 94 points. We have the toughest task to go with.

 

[Nooodles]

I dont think the Pens would like to enter the playoffs with losses. They will play their game without any pressure.

Speaking of pressure, we saw yesterday how our team was dealing with it.

I have no expectations this time.

 

[nonikhanna]

Do you think Pens would like to have a team like Tampa in the playoffs or a team like Toronto? We aren't even a serious contender for the cup, while Tampa could go deep.

 

[Knies iT]

Sid will be out and they're resting Murray. Leafs control their own fate.

 

[Cor]

Just Win

 

[taurine330]

Last 3 games that I've watched we have lost. I dunno if I dare to watch.

 

[Cor]

I haven't won my jersey since our last win either

 

[taurine330]

Last night I was first wearing my Matthews Centennial classic jersey and then Marner 2015 jersey. Didn't help.

 

[Not My Tempo]

I mean, the Pens can't stand the Islanders, so losing to us actually helps them right?

Ouch tough game

 

[OneTrueStick]

Sid will be out and they're resting Murray. Leafs control their own fate.

and then Flower will have the best game of his career and make like 50 saves, because of course this will happen to us...

 

[Loosie]

Get out to a good start and play our game and we'll be just fine. Win and you're in that's all.
