I think everyone is pretty much agreed that if Leafs give the same effort and attention to detail of Game 2 they move on.

I think all of us are worried we may not get that. And then all bets are off ...it's white knuckle time.

Probably a fair answer to an oversimplified question...!

Also. That was accomplished months ago

Any fanbase will back & support a team that busts its ass. CBJ may not be a pretty team but they get a ton of respect.

Agree but why can this team not do that every game or at least a semblance of it

Yes work their asses off exactly 👍

Did you think my Canucks do that? Just curious thx

I wasn't commenting on whether or not they work hard. I was commenting on your sentence that you don't want to say anything negative but.

I just got a chuckle.

I don't really watch your Canucks

then greeted Trump last month with a four-foot replica of Mount Rushmore that included his face."

That’s so (frank)ed up.

The best thing that could happen is 1-0 OT win & Freddie stands on his head. Why cuz it should wake up the Leafs for real & get down to biz & play a complete game if any hope for a deep run. Not sure it would wake them up though cuz the signs aren’t there to play that way so they better learn fast & JT should grow a pair & be a leader on & off the ice. High time they define themselves as contenders or make changes has to happen.

I think part of the problem is the team does not believe they will succeed. They expect to fail. That is why I am hoping a comeback of that magnitude affects them mentally.

We should know about 10 minutes into the game.

More of a roach than a Beatle...

You all know the team is soft as butter but with big firepower. It’s not so much more grit is needed but more character to be added. An example would be Roussel or someone like him.

I hearya I just wasn’t coming in here to be a Brucey lol

On the Canucks they play a great brand of hockey but similar warts like your Leafs other than they don’t give up & play every game for 60mins.

Perseverance. The Leafs are so frustrating because there is so much talent it's unbelievable -- but examples of realizing that full potential have been frustratingly rare. Game 2 and those last 4 mins of Game 4 are manifestations of what is tantalizingly possible every game.

A douche on another team I get it but a douche on a fans team is loved. Would you want Tom Wilson?

So a big tease eh? Lol

Yeah, take it further in a greek veggie direction, I hear you.

Speaking of food I made a salad last night, grapefruit, avocado, red onion on a bed of Boston lettuce with a lemon/orange/dijon/garlic/olive oil dressing...unbelievable. My gf said along with the pesto salmon I made it was the best meal she ever had. That salad is reverse Leafy.

Tom Wilson is an enigma.

He's a piece of poop but he's also a great hockey player. Roussell is only one of those. (I've hated the way that punk has gone about his bullpoop since Dallas, so this isn't an anti Vancouver thing )

Don't worry you're a lobotomy away from becoming a Brucey

As coach Wilson would say-

“Let’s Go”

Johnson makes a good point that I forgot. Werenski injury was a boon for the Leafs comeback.
