Hainsey with another pass up the middle to a Bruin.

He's overplayed and outa gas.

He's been bad for a while now, ever since the pace of the game has gotten faster, seems to be his downfall consistently over the years.

If Hainsey is supposed to be your defensive anchor, your team probably doesn't have a great defense.

Between that and goaltending (which is hard to project into the playoffs), that's been our biggest problem so far.

I think some Leaf fans, or media members thought our defense was passable but these last few games have showed us, clearly not. Some select players on our team have terrible neutral zone play too.

I'm not absolving the d-men. They were atrocious. At least 4 goals directly resulting from their incompetence.

If Rask doesn't make big saves, you could say the same about the Bruins. When the Leafs were storming back after scoring back the 2nd goal, he shut down the door and made some tough saves.

I don't see many goals tonight that I went "Man... no chance there".

Matthews, Marner, Hyman and Kapanen are the only forwards who have seemed to show up.

Not resting him down the stretch was stupid.
