Don’t forget the highlight of the game — Marner got upset!

I like how everyone is indifferent.

 

[Schooner Guy]

During Game 2, many posters in this thread were counting Marchand out. It was surreal to see.

I just took a quick visit to the Leafs forum to read the most recent pages. Figs fans are pissed!

So who was Nylander mouthing off? I think that needs to be unpacked.

Nylander was mouthing off to Marner and then Marner threw his gloves on the ground on a tantrum not long after (or before?).

Anyway, we should all thank Nylander for allowing use to see how much of man-baby Marner was regardless of the other of things.

I didn't have food poisoning but I've had severe bronchitis for about three weeks.

In Matthews' defense I had gastro 2 weeks ago and I thought I was going to die. I literally shit so much I lost consciousness right off the toilet. Not even joking. Worst part is this is the 2nd time this happened in the last year. Two kids in daycare.

I can relate, the first few years of young kids at daycare is literally a shit show. They bring so many viruses home that everybody gets sick. The worst by far is gastro....Thank god it doesn't normally last much longer than 48 hours. My kids are 7 and 10 now, so it doesn't happen as often anymore, but they still bring viruses home from time to time.

Even with knowing how bad it is, I'm still laughing at the thought of Matthews sitting on the toilet shitting his life out in the playoffs

I got food poisoning in January, gastro in early march and again last week. Having experienced all that, there is no way I can’t see an athlete playing

Jesus, poor you.

 

[yianik]

Food poisoning ? Had it, can't believe Matthews was on the ice.

As much as being a Habs fan has been disappointing the last 30 years overall, OMG the Leafs. One 1st round win in almost a decade , and now looking at another 1st round exit ? Wow.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

That's not a very smart hockey person, or they work for the Leafs. There's no way I do that trade if I'm Utah.

 

[WeThreeKings]

It's so funny that we have two separate incidents of Marner crying in different play-off runs and now we have him throwing his gloves like a petulant child.

Mental midget.

Some players clearly don't have the compete level for the playoffs. Another one who might get eliminated tonight: Max Pacioretty.

Not a bad idea, though Keller isn't a better 200 foot guy than Marner, and Leafs wouldn't know if he's got the heart for the playoffs.

Reading Leafs Nation this morning is so hilarious and entertaining- I know Montreal has a ways to go but the Habs will be better built for the playoffs when they get there.

You are looking for love in all the wrong places…

“A very smart hockey person”!!

… who is completely unaware of things like NMC and salary cap. lol

 

[Miller Time]

Gotta wonder when Shanahan will face the music...

 

[Ozmodiar]

That’s just total salary.
Almost 5M cap difference.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Gotta wonder when Shanahan will face the music...

It has to be this year. Cant see him lasting. Keefe will also be gone.

The NMCs on their players are a real problem.

 

[Essenege]

It’s so satisfying to see the Leafs pissing away their contention window.

KH is absolutely right to prioritize the backend on this rebuild.

When we’re talking Stanley cup playoffs..

Defence > Offense
Elite forwards > forward depth (but ideally both)

Leafs have depth and elite talent at the forward position but they have neither at the D position.

The worst feeling in the world is doing laundry at 3 am while both kids are puking and you have that realization that it'll be you puking in about a week.

Tavares has another year. Marner has an NMC. I think they’re stuck for another season.

It's actually 1 first round win in 2 decades if they lose again this year.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

So we’re all enjoying Leafs Nation complete nuclear meltdown, right?

 

[Andy]

Jesus, poor you.

It’s been a brutal 4 months man.

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

It’s been a brutal 4 months man.

I’ve been sick for three weeks with a horrible cough. But I’d take it over what you and Waffledave have had to endure.

Matthew’s is taking far too much abuse on this.
