JOHN TAVARES IS A MAPLE LEAF
does he just score all his goals 5v5? because his totals are not very high

Anderson isn't playing top line minutes or anything and Gallagher has been hurt

yeah i can see that with Anderson being at about 16 minutes a game
what does Gallagher being hurt have to do with his goal production?
Pavel Buchnevich
Drury and Laviolette Must Go
Coach should play them more and hope Gallagher's ready to go at full speed come playoff time because nobody else on the roster scores much at all.
Voted TOR in 7. Either way I'm looking forward to it even though it's not 100% sure. I've never seen Montreal against Toronto in the playoffs. Should be a good one. Plus, it may reignite the rivalry a little, which has been bland for a while. Looking forward to hating Matthews, Marner and co.

Now compare assists
Should be fun. Or are we just going to pretend like the Leafs duo isn’t playmakers?

Marner has 1 less point than Anderson and Toffoli combined...

Well I think if you took every team in the league their top 3 or 4 guys are going to be the go to guys on offense.

Gallagher scores almost all his goals at 5 on 5 I think he may have 1 PPG this year, if that.

He'll never be a 40 - 50 goal guy but he is very productive in the minutes he gets.
You think they're going to outscore Matthews/Marner/Tavares? It's fair enough that you've pointed out you've got some guys who can score some goals. But who on the Habs is going to outscore their counterpart on the Leafs?

I said overly optimisic ones. I've read a few comments that predict a win. I'm ok with hopeful yet tentative. I am a long time leaf fan after all and I've spent decades planning the parade every year.I love Leafs fans man every Habs fan itt is basically saying Leafs in 4 or 5 but that's just not enough for you guys
That said, I couldnt imagine a worse thing than being knocked out by the habs and I bet hab fans feel the same about the leafs. I'm pretty confident that the leafs are a better team. I have no control whether they choke or not. No one will say the habs choked if they lose.
A hab fan relishing a playoff battle with the leafs in the first round with an expectation of victory seems a bit sadomasachistic.

Well, that's all that Hab fans have to desperately cling to, isn't it? Reality will sting, as will losing to the hated Toronto Maple Leafs.

No desperation on my part, just gleeful expectation.
It's awesome seeing and hearing more and more Leafs fans getting nervous at the thought of facing off against the Habs. Oh what horror it would be to get eliminated by the lowly Habs! Nothing to lose for the Habs, everything to lose for the Leafs. Gonna be such a fun series whatever the outcome (well maybe not so much for Leaf fans if the choke is on). This rivalry has been dead for too long. Time to re-ignite it!

I never said that tbf. I do think it's possible over a small sample size of 7 or less games that they could, however unlikely.
