Leafs might have to trade Matthews. I doubt he agrees to an extension this off-season. Can't let him leave for nothing.

I can see him signing with Vegas.

yikes, tough one. Bob in net looks great. This Florida team is no normal 8th seed team. Not when Bobsky is playing net like that.

Can he tend the net? :lol:

Any chance these guys come back from being down 0-3? Is it basically impossible like how it is in basketball?

unless injuries befell Bobrovsky and their entire goaltending and defensive regiment, highly doubt it.

i mean if there was a team talented enough to do it, it would be the Leafs but they have shown 0 ability to do anything special or show any urgency.

I would not be surprised if TB won against the Panthers if they had gotten past the Leafs tbh.

No sustained offensive zone pressure. The finesse 4 with ZERO goals this series. Fire Dubas.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

I mean.. Florida just won 6 straight games against the Bruins and Leafs combined...

But then again they are the hottest team in the playoffs right now and playing with house money. Leafs on the other hand have the softest, most mentally weak core of players in the past decade. My bet is on a blowout in game 4 on the way to an easy sweep for Florida. Based on what i saw tonight, these Leafs looked like they already had 1 foot on the Golf Course anyway. They took their round 1 championship and called it a season.
