Series Thread: First Round - Toronto Maple Leafs vs. Tampa Bay Lightning

[naslundfan19]

Fine, I’ll do it. But I’m still picking Tampa in 7. I need to see them win a series before I pick the Leafs.

Corey Perry will send (fill in blank) to the hospital this series.

Leafs in 5 - Bolts are trash right now

/then the Leafs lay an egg against the Panthers in round 2

Just gonna say despite TB having a lot of issues down the stretch they still have three very high scoring players, decent enough depth scoring, a solid third line, Hedman + Vassy, and to boot Sergachev found an offensive touch this year.

Last year TB won without Point for most of the series too. Toronto’s only significant injury was Bunting and he managed to play (although not great).

Matching up line for line I’m still just not seeing where the Leafs have the advantage in a 7 game head to head.

Knies looked good in his few games last week. Lafferty hasn’t in his two months here. And yet…



Keep galaxy braining it, Keefe.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

My god this is stupid.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Keefe’s also probably scratching Liljegren. Because that worked SO WELL last season when they put Boosh in to be tough vs. TB. So well.
