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

[mattola]

Should we start the Leafs vs Oilers Stanley Cup finals thread now?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

These guys are gonna start gooning it soon.

Killorn's a fucking loser. Thanks for the man advantage to open the second.

He's one of those pretenders Jason Gregor was talking about the other day.

Woof - That's a soft call on Muzzin.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

No call on Vassy playing it outside the trap eh?

Cool.

No soup for you, Tampa!!

Guess the Leafs and Bolts are just going to kick the shit out of each other for seven games. Cool!

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

1) this Campbell for the long haul please.

2) Holl was fine. Boosh isn’t. Get Lilly back in there there’s no need for this.

3) Never put Wayne or Clifford in again.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

TB had 5 penalties tonight, 2 of them were for puck over the glass. Ignore this, refs.

I would not be surprised to see Boosh sit next game. Lilly can get the puck out of his zone; Boosh can't.

I doubt Simmonds or Clifford see any more time; Tampa really are paper tigers in the toughness dept.

Gee, shocked <sarcasm> he is whining about his team taking penalties. Maybe he should look at his roster.

And if you take away the delay of games the penalties were even.

Didn't think that Lyusushkin was awful tonight but FUCK RUSSIA and Slava Ukraini. Feeling like I am starting to have a problem with the Leafs and the NHL thinking that those bastards are ok in this league. We should boot their asses out, won't miss much. The Great 88 is an admitted BIG Putin fan and should be ejected from our society, I love his game and have always thought he was a top notch player but FUCK him.

I have him at 1,001 lol

As an aside, it always drives me crazy when people use the Stanley Cup argument when determining how good a NHL player's career is. Pat Maroon has three Stanley Cup rings and he wouldn't make the top 1000 of players who have played in the NHL.

I remember that one poster who thought Kunitz was a HOF’er because he had four cups.

I'm going to go ahead and assume that poster was over at the old ESPN site?

Unrelated to anything, but I just realized I've known some of you guys as posters now for about 20 years...holy fark!

Yep. Don’t know what is says about any of us, but these are some of the longest “relationships” of my adult life

Funny but it was here. I can’t remember his name though, if I get motivated I will try and find it.
