Toronto Maple Leafs VS. Florida Panthers Playoff Series Preview: Tkachuk, Special Teams & More!
Спорт
In this video, I go over the Maple Leafs winning their first-round matchup against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Then set up their series in Round two against the Florida Panthers. I break it all down using advanced stats, contextual information and quotes.

DTS - Better words were never spoken. U nailed it bro. GO LEAFS GO!
Talent wise leafs got the edge. It comes down to who got the most heart. If leafs play like they did in half their games they can pack their bags already, you dont get lucky like that all the time..
Hat off!
Hey man I’ve been watching since 2020 and even ended up buying a flames jersey off you but I just thought you should know you’re doing something no one else is for the leafs and thank you for that keep it up!!
I forgot about the DOME lol love it!!!
Gonna be a good series . Good luck panther fans. Go leafs !
great video
Point was totally banged up and the fact that he came back, oh yeah. Hockey players, super tough! Great content and I’ve subscribed. Staunch Leafs fan expat in Tokyo!
I don't remember the Rielly draft / Schenn trade the same way as you describe it. Schenn had a great start with the Leafs, but things had soured for him in Toronto. Expectations exceeded the player they had drafted. The Leafs handling of him was also not helpful in developing skills and managing his confidence. People were not surprised to see him traded for an elite winger in James Van Riemsdyk (#2 overall) who also had the Flyers go sour on him. Schenn's turned into a really useful defence partner and he's playing like he's really excited to get another chance with the Leafs.
Incisive, personable analysis. Great choice of stats and graphs. Subscribed!
Great Breakdown! Thank you!
Go Leafs go!!!
Hey Stephen...hope you are doing well....i just missed your live broadcast but did get to see it....gotta say the new look cleaned ya up real nice.....but i thought all future videos would be done without the hat...LOL
The hockey gods have turned over a new leaf
I’m looking for ROR to really step up, as well as Nylander. Go leafs go!
Great preview! Everybody has an opinion but few back it up with stats and facts - ya got some wisdom there young man! Subscribed.
at least this years playoffs we see new teams, new matchups and wide open to who can win it all
Leafs fan in Edmonton here still in shock about Tampa but really looking forward to mr.turtle coming to Toronto 😎 mariner and mr.ktcgucj played hockey for London knights going to be great series
I could listen to Elliot Friedman but this is better .
Panthers just proved they are a handful to try and close out Leafs need to be detailed but with good goaltending and goal support I like their chances
Bruh what’s the deal we need a video 😭
Steven you mentioned my favorite goalie Eddie Balfour
Im a leaf fan and they got outplayed ecery game but game 2 .. lucky to be advancing
eyebrows next raise funds pick a number and go for it
Where is the new video

When Morgan was drafted, i too went to bed thinking he would be paired with Luke.
Panthers are a hard-working team, definitely won't be easy....interesting about Knies ...great job all around

Toronto in 5, the bruins would have been swept by the leafs, if they had a team that didnt choke
I just watched a video by Uptown Stephanie Green and she disagrees with everything you say.
Sooooo DTSB, what Im hearing you say is they are going through all the correct Mo-Schenns? HAHA. Feel free to use that if you want. Im proud of it LOL.

Yeah... I wanna know the regular season record leafs vs panthers.... I feel like we beat them twice as much as we lost to them (could be so wrong though).. this is gunna be leafs in 5 imho Edit: from a quick look ... seems like Leafs have 3 wins and panthers 1 for this entire season against one another. (4 games total) And this was prior to our additions to the Team... 👀

Ummm... although you had 3 wins out of the 4 games... three of those games went to overtime... you don't play 3 vs 3 in the playoffs... don't think you dominated the panthers, it'll comeback to bite you... ask the Bruins

@Spencer Knight fair assessment, however as mentioned. Those games were prior too adding our new additions to the team which made a 100x difference. But I agree, you can't assume something such as this cause florida could pull a 4-0 sweep. 🤷🏼♂️ Hoping otherwise though!

Hey Kojack!
I guess Florida isn't allowing Leaf fans to attend the game. How else are they going to fill that arena. Lol
So basically, dont play bunting against Florida, theyre a dangerous PP team
SoFlo is in the house. Leafs i hope you a ready for your ice to melt at your arena because we are bringing the Weather and Panthers. Go Panthers
i bleed leaf nation and hate boston but i wouldnt say they fell apart. its took overtime in the 7th game

For a team who lost 17 games out of 82 only to lose 4 out of 7 it's kind of falling apart. They went from losing less than 20% of their games to lose 60%.
Bruins in 6…. 😂
That does NOT mean they can Beat Panthers ! The Panthers beat the best team in the NHL this year, 4 games ! That means the Leafs should have a VERY difficult time beating them ! Do NOT count the Panthers out ! Sure I am a Leafs fan ! But NEVER count a team out untill it is over ! DML.
do you remember leaf fans running schenn out of town? ya........ disgusting. Sandin is the new schenn. you see his numbers?
Panthers on paper have better players. But Leafs have better coaching.

Leafs on paper have better players but will they have the heart and determination of the panthers? Will be a great series.
If they win round 2, shave your eyebrows, bet. GLG
Knies played well but made some rookie mistakes; moves that work in college won't work in the NHL. Leafs didn't look enthusiastic at all in games 1, 5 & 6. Luck wins games too, and, this year, the Leafs had some of it ... good, not bad. If they play like this in round 2, we've got another 7 game series.

History will repeat. The Leafs last won a Cup in 1967. Know why? A six team league meant ease of opponents. Since then has Toronto been in the Finals? (fingers drumming..) Rename them The Toronto 67's in honor of the Centennial year. They CAN NOT win unless its a 6 team league. Facts dont lie.

Truly an idiot take. You simply don't know what will happen & neither does anyone else, that's why they actually play the games. The regular season is about being good enough to qualify for the post-season. When the playoffs begin, there is generally a total reset, which is why Tampa, Boston, Colorado, LA, Minnesota & NYR are all out. All good teams, with the defending Cup champions & the history making Bruins upset by teams considered to be of lesser talent.
Go Leafs go!!!
