After watching the oilers last night it seems they have it out for canadian teams, clear high stick, it only took 5 mins to see it over and over, he touched it. Nhl will get their 7 games for the money. That's all it really is is for the $$$$$$. No canadian team will see a cup this year or any time soon.

@dtsb GREAT content/analysis - in a way i’ll be bummed when tsn gives you a segment bc less time to spend on these but i’ll be happy for you!
LOL the picture of Vasilevskiy that shows up at the end of your video... he looks like a serial killer from a horror movie.
Really happy to see you got a new hat lol great content as always!

It’s a player issued Flip Side hat. I don’t think they sell them at retail? I could be wrong. Got it at the Sports Card Expo Real Sports booth yesterday

Vasi probably will be in rock form tonight, but hopefully Leaf’s can overwhelm him
For those who dont think Matthews is dealing with that hand or wrist injury nagging him is crazy. Hes a totally different player/ His shot has really suffered. and you dont see him taking those slapshot one timers he used to take on the pp. After this playoffs i bet it comes out hes dealing with something that may even require surgury.
Cernak hasn’t skated at all since gm1 until you see him at least in some morning skates I cant see him returning for 3 or 4. I can’t imagine they’re just hiding him somewhere and it’ll just be “Ta Da!!! Cernak in tonight”. But who knows this is Cooper we’re talking about lol
The amount of calls per egregious infraction go down in the playoffs. That is more the problem than the total amount called.
I wouldnt be the least bit surprized to see lilgren or even gusty come in and replace Holl. Thats the reason why Dubas made the move for all these extra defencemen,.. to use them. Keefe will want to throw as many looks at the lightning to thwart the lightnings ability to make adjustments to slow them down. If i had to guess.... Hedman is in tonight. and a 60% Hedman is still way better then not having him in and moving other guys up
We just need to play well, you can blame the refs all you like and it is warranted because some calls are rough haha but the Toronto still needs to show up and if they play how well they did in game 2 their going to be tough to beat.
Yea just wait till Headman plays 30 mins tonight
If nies keeps smacking his stick he makes a great decoy turning the defensmans heads.
It doesn't matter to me whether Matthews scores or not. Every second he is on the ice is a danger to his opponents and the extra attention he draws helps every teammate he shares the ice with.
go leafs go !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everyone complained about the 3 game suspension when the dirty hit is making one of tampas better dmen be out minimum 2 games. Leafs playing great but you add headman and that a lone is a major difference leads definetly should be looking at that

Hedman hasnt played well all year. Not sure a big slow guy like him would make much difference
Big game tonight. I think the team who wins tonight takes the series

Why? What if the team who wins tonight loses the next game. Then it’s even and a 2 out of 3. Why would the game 3 winner have an advantage in games 5, 6, or 7?

@BurtTurbo It's Toronto, Sports biggest choke artists. Let me redo my post. If Tampa loses, they still win the series. If the Leafs lose, they will lose the series. Year after year, the LEAFS are the better team, but still lose.. Remember Columbus and Montreal. Then you're up on Boston, and they score 4 goals to beat you. Last year, you should have beat Tampa, but you didn't. Why. Every time Toronto dominates a game, they usually lay an egg after. Somehow, your team will find a way to lose. They can't handle the media/fan pressure. Until Toronto proves me wrong and actually wins a series 2004 was a long long long long time ago. Good luck.
Is Hedmans injury serious or something if they give it time will heal 100 percent?

@DownTownSports98 maybe his back is bothering plus his knee, which I've seen people speculating on. If he's missing playoff Games for it it's definitely not minor I'd assume. Back tightness or a back injury would make sence though

He had no one but himself to be pissed at.
So truth be told the Leafs need to stay out of the dam box stop getting sucked in to bad penalties that usually end up burning them.
Leave it to leafs fans get blown out in game 1 and game 2 the lightnings best defensive defenseman. They aren’t going to feed the “lightning lunch”
