Korpisalo in net - and he's looking very very sharp.

Good point. Usually I’d be just laughing at Boston cause Columbus can’t score. Looks like they can though...

Leafs in five.

Cbus is like that guy you play in ping pong.. just hits it back every time no matter what.. nothing fancy.. just the same thing shift after shift...

It can be overcome with the talent the Leafs have.. but Leafs could make it harder on themselves than they need to by getting sloppy and no paying attention.

What's that saying? Talent only beats hard work when talent works hard

Not sure he has a neck up on Robertson, Spezza or BigRedDog.

Keefe has to know they’re not going to deviate from the Torts way.


Leafs just play smart, counter punch when the opportunity allows and let their skill take over..

- dozerD10


Leafs better be ready to play as soon as the puck drops. I didn't like effort level by top six for most of the exhibition game.

That guy who can hit the ping pong ball back every time has mad, mad skills. I don't think CBJ has mad, mad skills.

I do think that this play-in is completely, utterly unpredictable. Leafs could be annihilated or they could annihilate. That's what intrigues me (and scares me) so much about this format after a long layoff.

Agreed. Robertson with Kerfoot and Kap seems set as the 3rd line right now

That’s what they need, but they love to pinch and give up the odd man...even when leading . Let’s hope Keefe has them playing smart.

Both Keefe and Dubas said that the focus in practice has been on defense

By the second half Engvall became just a guy out there skating up and down. He doesn’t really bring anything. If Robertson can hold his own responsibly he brings so much more potential upside. The question is around the if.
