7 ON THE ICE?!?!

It's been happening a lot this year in the playoffs. Remember the terrible postseason officiating in 2019? That's what it reminds me of. Sent from my SM-S367VL using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk

The Canadiens were competitive in Game 1, but the Golden Knights had an extra jump to their game. Sent from my SM-S367VL using Blueshirts Brotherhood mobile app powered by Tapatalk

It feels like we lack that extra gear that can make teams great.

Fleury is a beast in the playoffs! But remember the last time he faced the Canadiens in the playoffs?

Simply put, the better team won.

The Islanders played with hunger in this series, and the Bruins just kept making stupid mistakes, like turning the puck over.

Games are usually like that when you play a neutral-zone trap style of hockey. The better team won this series. I expect to hear a lot of excuses from the Bruins and their fans (injuries, Rask, Officials).

It will be a competitive series, but Tampa will pull out the series in six.

Looking good, Nils.

"Hello darkness, my old friend."

Sid got called today.

Even though this was last year, this is even more applicable now for the Maple Leafs' collapse against Montreal (but with their "Captain" injured).

Sundin was a talent for Toronto, yet the closest they got to the Cup with him was 2002 when they lost to the Hurricanes in 6 in the Eastern Conference Finals. And they had stellar goaltending at that time: Potvin, CuJo, and Belfour.

Just take a look at all the crap that occurred in the Ballard era after 1967, and their best season since '67 was when they came close to making the Stanley Cup Final in 1993 with Gilmour and Clark with Pat Burns as their coach, and it took a high-stick non-call and a devasting Game 7 loss against Gretzky and the Kings. Now, with all of the talent they have, where is the heart for the Maple Leafs? They just crumbled under the adversity and the pressure of the Ballard Curse. 1993 was the best year for that franchise after 1967.

Coaching and discipline have been the differences for the Islanders. I had no idea what we were doing by hiring a college coach that would get his ass handed to him in the qualifying round to Carolina.

You always need a line like the CCM line, something we do not have.

Make it 54 years! Blow Leafs Blow! [video=youtube;25j6s-ZY3mY]

Something has it in me that Toronto will be like the 2011 Vancouver Canucks and lay an egg in Game 7 on home ice.

Bruins fed off of the raucous Boston crowd.

Yes. The Maple Leafs have been owned by a year: 1967.
