Oh look. St. Louis allowed 7 goals. That team defense sure paid off.

Bingo's Canes stellar defense allowed 5 third period goals as Matthews and Marner beat them like a rented mule.

Without a doubt. All the gifs combined with Bob coming to Dopps defence on the last page. I mean, I'm not Batman or anything, but it looks that way to me.

They're a top notch group of puck moving defensemen, they're not exactly stalwarts in their own end though.

Man, Keefe has been incredible. The detractors will claim this style of play isn’t well-suited for the playoffs, and this level of winning isn’t sustainable in such a high-octane offensive structure, blah, blah, blah. These are the same people who criticized Babcock for stifling his star players with a defensive-minded strategy.

No point shoving a square peg into a round hole, as they say. The Leafs have the most highly-skilled collection of offensive talent in the league, so playing any other style of hockey would make no sense.

On that note, good LORD are Matthews, Marner, JT and Nylander fun to watch. Marner’s vision and creativity with the puck is like nothing I’ve ever seen. He’ll push for the Art Ross trophy next season if he’s healthy

And the flaming dumpster fire of a team in Montreal....I mean, wow. Icing on the cake. What a time to be a Torontonian!

I hope they full on tank and get Lafreniere. Perfect spot for the young star.
Would help make the rivalry fun again.

They're a good team, that game was one of my favorites this year. Svechnikov is a beauty, skill, speed can hit and a little dirty.

People seem to do it when the leafs have a bad game. "Cant win like that! Tear it down! Trade the core!"

Point is, we shouldn't base anything off one or even ten games. 60+ is where I think something can be defined.

Wide open? I think it's pretty clear that is what this team hangs their hat on. You know, wide open playoff hockey

I hope they tank and finish with 11th pick not a possible superstar.

I can pick any team that is a contender and they will have given up 6+ goals in a game sometime throughout the year.

Weren't we in a 8 games losing streak a month ago?

This makes no sense.

I just like seeing the odds of drafting Lafrenière rise.

He's gonna be great. Really hope a Western Conference team gets him.

Unlikely to happen though - Montreal cursed with a very good goalie and Habs would have a hard time (with their fanbase and optics) of doing what the Sabres did to try to get McDavid. Member when Murray demoted or traded any goalie in the Sabres system that had a save percentage above .550? Then took it up the hoop at the draft?
