I remember a time when you were never going to talk to me again. I obviously made one of your lists.

Am I the only one that thinks Toronto can still win their series?

Maybe you guys can do better research on this than me. But I could not find a single CHL defenseman that put up the points Bouchard did in his draft eligible year.

Maybe, but I wouldn't put money on it.

A friend of mine is a leaf fan and he was female doging on the weekend and it sounded just like I did way back in 2011. Funny how that Bruins experience leaves a bitter taste.

lol true. Difference for me of course is that the Bruin team from 2011 had no business being on the same ice surface as that dominant 2011 Canuck squad. This current Leafs team can sure score during the regular season but they are not built for the playoffs yet. If they had a pair of Dmen that could deal with the Bergeron line they could make s series out of it.

Some see it, many leaf fans don't.

No matter how many times people refer to the term "second season" (or whatever they call it) you just don't get it until your dominant regular season team faces reality in the playoffs.

Many of them pointed to the season-series and said that the Bruins didn't have the fire power to keep up, even if the score is 6-5 leafs.

Reality sucks.

Who didnt see the gifts to the Leafs coming tonight?

The refs missed it... no kidding. Whats funny is everyone can see they were not even looking but they come up with a penalty? That's not how it works. They need to see a penalty not assume. Assume they did... free goal.

Oh here we go. Things even out they are saying because of the missed offside. What? The Leafs missed that offside challenge,,,, a call did not go against them. It's up to the bench to challenge those microscopic offsides that happen multiple times per game.

That was a Leafs screw up and it's burned Babacock a number of times in the last 2 seasons. He doesnt stall long enough like other coaches. Fine in the regular season but in the playoffs, giving your guys upstairs long enough to give you a heads up is common sense and may save your series.

He's not physical enough right now for me liking.
Bouchards first 15 goals of 17-18.

If you go to the 5 mark. You see Dobson do something that you don't see in any of the 15 goals that Bouchard scored. Whether Dobson scored on it or not.

Bouchard doesn't "deke" around a defender in the ozone.

All of Bouchard's goals were straight shots from the point, one timers or back door tap ins. I don't see him create any lanes in any of his goals.

I meant recent, but I did not even think to check Ellis. Makes me like Bouchard even more tbh.
