OK, now I have to do it. I’ve not done it for years, but the ’67 Jersey is coming out of the closet. Going to the Akwesasne Casino and Resort for the long weekend. The Jersey’s going with me and I’ll watch the game at the Sports Bar at the resort on Sunday night. Hoping for the almost impossible result. Let’s see if that does the trick. Anyone else going to do something out of the ordinary to get some Blue & White Karma building?
By the way, a great, unexpected effort by the boys tonight. I expected it to be close, but see the usual happen. A late goal and lose either in overtime or in the last minute. We get to cheer one more time. At least it’s at home.
If you asked before the series would you take a game 7, most of us would have said yes. What an opportunity this is.
Time for Tavares, Nylander or another top-six forward to win a game. Or…*gasp* a bottom-six player score a goal.
Or a defenseman. Rielly? Wake up time.
Somebody new has to step up in Game 7.
Woll already stole a game, can’t expect him to pitch another SO.
I feel that our unseen hero might be Laughton. He’s been around the puck and has played doggedly throughout the playoffs. He hasn’t been rewarded, so the hockey Gods may grant the opportunity to do the unthinkable and dispatch Florida in game 7.
Yes, I’d take game 7 having Home Ice, if looking at it at the start of the series. Florida are the Champions and you know that they’ll come out on fire, in Game 7. If we are tied after 1, there’s a distinct possibility that we can take this series. I’m guessing that Florida is hiding a lot of injuries to key players too. Barkov seems to be a little banged up and some of their bottom 6 seem a bit beat up too.

Jarnkrok or OEL.
Spirit of Salming.
I’m not missing the Buzz. Haven’t gone there in 4 days. This is now home for Leafs Nation. Time to get out the word.

I would have said no because this Leafs team absolutely sucks in Game 7s.
In front of that dead crowd at home, even worse. The crowd was a disgrace in Game 5 and that was way before the game became a debacle.
Time to bring the blue Karma on Sunday. I wonder if all of those people who burned their jersey’s are having second thoughts?
People should still be angry that the games 1, 2, and 6 effort disappeared for 3 games.
How does that happen?
Anyway, GLG until it kills me.
Not enough credit is being given to Marner for the Game 6 victory.
Great defensive play to take the puck away, great spinning pass to Matthews, top notch primary assist to finally get the monkey off Matthews’ back. Also had a great pass to Knies early in the game that he couldn’t bury.
Perfect on the PK too. On the ice in the closing minutes, constantly clearing the zone without icing the puck or taking a penalty.
In a tight elimination game.
They will hate on him twice as hard for the mistakes and give him half the credit for the successes, calling him a greedy bitch who doesn’t help win big games. Except when he does, then all you hear is crickets.
Bullshit.
No matter how Game 7 goes, pay the man. Continue being patient, even though it’s taking way longer than anybody wanted or expected. Don’t risk watching him win Cups in another city like we’ve seen so many (lesser) former Leafs do before.
You know I still love you
You knew I’d never change
And it’s been five long years and I love you
Just the sameDid I actually read that JT needed to do more when it comes to GWG ms – after being the guy who prior to this year was the only one to get this team to the 2nd round?
And then the fans were terrible in game 5? The fans who paid 400 bucks minimum per seat to watch the Leafs absolute not show up at all?
And then Marner doesn’t get enough love and because he got an assist on a pedestrian pass where Matthews buried the game winner after 9 years of choking in late series games Marner should get paid basically whatever he wants?
All from the same person?
JFC those are some super hot takes there…..🙄

Does Tavares have a GWG this series? Any points in the elimination games? You want to bitch about Marner in elimination games (1 GWG in the series and primary assist on GWG in an elimination game) while Tavares is doing less offensively and is a liability defensively (11 EVGA in 12GP, worst among all Leafs forwards)? Will the NHL award the Leafs the series victory vs. Florida because Tavares scored against Tampa Bay 2 years ago?
Fans were absolutely horrible in Game 5 from the start. They spent a lot of money to be there? Great. Now they have 400 more reasons to be louder and stop pretending they’re watching an opera. Give your team an advantage. Watch a Jets or Oilers game for a lesson if you need one.
Marner made a fantastic play to get Matthews the puck and played great defense. You’re just too much of a hater to realize it. Matthews had ZERO goals beyond the 1st round until tonight. He’s getting 13+ AAV. But that’s perfectly fine? Wonder how he scores his one goal with nobody to steal the puck and pass it to him anymore? Wonder how he holds the lead without Marner’s PK / defensive abilities?
Reality hurts you. It hurts your arguments even more.

If you asked before the series would you take a game 7, most of us would have said yes. What an opportunity this isNo, game 7 isnt good enough with this team.
Its deep in round 3 or 4 or its just anorher wasted year.
Im tired of the excuses and fans being happy with this team simply showing up for certain games. Its been 9 years, time to win several rounds. Enough with the 1st/2nd round participation ribbons. Beat a good team, every year its “tampas too good, bostons too good, Florida is too good”. Time for the leafs to be too good
