That's untrue. Check games 1, 3 and 5. It's right there. You can go back on the links from the blog.

I see so many similar traits from last year late into a series.

Inability to kill a penalty.

Inability to win a draw

Gardiner being Gardiner.

Only one line in the top 2 able to score

Unable to play against the forecheck/cycle.

Great early on in a series but not in a game where they could advance.

I hope I'm wrong I truly do. But I fear I'm not.

Honestly, I tried the same blind optimism you, Roger and Burn have for 15 odd years and it never ever worked for me. I'm hoping it works for you

Oh lord, if you think this series is similar to last years than (frank).

I don’t know what to say. The Leafs were outplayed last year in games 5,6. They did not deserve to bring that to 7 games.

In fact, I can’t remember which game but either 5 or 6 was one of the most lopsided games where a playoff team has won in the last few decades.

Like I said.

The Leafs have given us all the reasons to be positive about them winning this series.

Just like how the Caps have given us all the reason to believe they will win. How St Louis gave us all the reason they were going to win.

Is it being a homer? No. It’s using logic instead of negativity.

I think you gotta meet him half way
There are reasons to still be optimistic this time around, I agree. But in all honestly, game 7s scare most Leafs fans, and rightfully so. It's gonna be really tough to come out on top.

Worst lead in hockey. Leafs get the next goal Bruins get sphincteritis.

It’s incredible. All the soft plays aside I at least expect him to put an effort in when the puck is there.

He did a great job of taking the body and getting the puck about 10 secs before that play

Biggest homer on here

Hopefully the Leafs remember what they did in Game 5 but forget what they did in the 1st and 2nd period tonight.

Can that be done?

So logic now means blind optimism.

I didn't know Websters made that change but good to know.

- JohnFergusonJr

They’ve been the better team and are up 3-2 in the series.

Go back to math class if you can’t figure this one out.

Like I listed out. I see the same issues. If you don't then what are you watching?

You're so homertastic towards the Leafs it's impossible to talk any issues over with you. Just the same as Roger and Burn

Unless something giant changes, that won't be true much longer.

More insults.

Rinse, repeat.
