Hoping for a stress free game 2 repeat.

At the beginning of this series I thought that each game would come down to a race to 3 goals and the team that got there first would control the game and come away with the win, based on the strengths and weaknesses of both teams.

However after the last 2 games with both teams blowing 3-0 leads I'm not so sure there will be a stress free game regardless of the score unless its a blowout.

Series final games never seem to be stress free for Leaf fans.

I'm from the Great White North, right, like up above the States
The big land mass that the rest of the world hates
Well, we're like, above that, f***in' north I guess
The big patch of trees where everybody's bored to death
We're just chillin' up here, sippin' syrup, playin' hockey
Before we learn to walk, we can crosscheck properly
Just rockin' plaid jackets, chainsaws we operate 'em right
f***in' eh right we do bud, we cut our weight in firewood
Every twenty minutes or so - smoke break!
And if the Leafs make the playoffs, I'll f***in' jump in the lake
f***in' buddy comes over to my place the other night
And he's like "wanna go out for a rip?"
And I was like "f***in' right!" (yeah)
So we hop in the truck and hit the mud and I was like
"Ooh f*** yeah bud"

I won't be watching. My heart can't take it anymore. I thought I was going to have a stroke or heart attack during Game 3. I didn't watch Game 4 and that turned out OK, so my personal blackout will continue. I'll watch the game afterwards if the Leafs win. It's a matter of personal survival. Good luck all.

I may be on delay for this one too, we'll see if I can stick to it

My expectations are low and non-existent. So I'll enjoy this one way or another.

My expectation is overtime. I had speculated the Leafs shooters are loading up for a big game because CBJ keeps slipping into trading chances rather than trying to suffocate but its a 1 game series now. I think the Jackets will come out hard early trying to set the tone. Hopefully Freddy brings his big boy pants.

I had accepted the leafs fate when Jenner made it 3-0. I wasn’t even in the room for the 3-1 goal. I came back, and they have sucked me right back in. Surely we Leaf fans have been suffering for long enough to not lose after a comeback like that??

Go leafs go!!

Remember Game 7 vs. STL oh so many years ago after Cujo had an incredible first 6 games for them?

Definitely hoping for a replay of that Game 7 tonight

If, after the 2nd period, the Leafs are leading, and I don't care by how many goals, if I'm Keefe I walk into the room, ask the boys to settle down and tell them, 'I have confidence in you' and then walk out.
We've been waiting to see them take the next step towards maturing as a team. Now is the time. It's up to them.

I don’t understand stuff like this. You won’t watch and possibly deprive yourself of incredible moments because of the pain when they lose? Why even bother watching sports if you only watch wins after the fact?
