Nope but a white kid from Ajax did call me a brownie on xbox live once.

I've heard more racist **** from punjabi people more than white people tbh.

The Leafs are the Knicks of the NBA anyway. 40 years of sold out buildings and mediocre play in the one city that should have had no excuses.

Auston Matthews will get clobbered cleanly within the next 2 years and develop concussion issues and this new Leafs core will max out below this Raptors core. A Conference Finals.

It's the Leafs way.

I grew up in Malton and it's the same there too. Knew more hockey fans than ball fans. Things have probably changed now with the raptors being a perennial playoff team.

Nah man, this is the first time in over a decade that I believe in the future of the team. Trust the shanaplan.

Hard to call it a choke when the Leafs weren't even supposed to make the playoffs coming into this season (they're one of the youngest teams in the NHL). They've just taken the best team in the league to OT in back-to-back games.

Yup but they're right there gotta close out...Caps are bigger chokers then the Raptors

At some point you gotta stop having the mentality we're young and not supposed to be here and have a killer
instinct and get the W

Leafs are like the 2010 OKC Thunder, but with Popovich. They'll obvs lose, bit this will be seen as their arrival and when they become legit.

I hope Leafs win in OT, must suck for fans seeing back to back losses at Jurassic Park

Delusional lol ( I know its sarcasm). This Leafs core already surpassed their Raps counterpart.

The problem with the Leafs now will be that they became too good too quick. They needed more years of pain to truly build up the roster.

They have superstar in Matthews.
A superstar winger in Marner.
A nice scorer in JVR.
A nice player in Nylander.
A nice player in Kadri.
A good goalie.

And mediocre defensive defence men and it will be very hard to get one now. They don't become available outside of the draft very often for anything less than franchise level Cs like what the Oilers gave up for Karlson (Taylor Hall)

Boyle you idiot you can't take stupid penalties like that in the playoffs in OT Why can't Toronto sports teams have high IQ players?

I predict a goal within the next 5 minutes. Either prior to OT number 2 or the start of OT#2.

It's all lining up.
