Well as things take shape for the playoffs looks like leafs are in tough .. watching that Bruins / Lightning game the other day shows you what powerhouse teams look like..

Tampa did to Boston what Boston did to Toronto

Turned a 4-2 defecit with less than 10 minutes to go into a 5-4 win in regulation ..

The most exciting part for me now is the last game of the season .. hoping we can put the last nail in the Montreal coffin

it has often been said that my two favorite teams are Toronto , and whoever is playing Montreal

Except the Leafs almost certainly will be resting Anderson and probably a few other key players vs Montreal.
Yes the Leafs will have a very tough first round with Boston, the team we have the most trouble with.
It is a bit of a joke that they did not build up defence. We will need Freddy to play like Hasek did in order to get past the first 2 rounds.
Go Leafs Go!
Iceman: I am with you on the dislike of the Habs and particularly Habs fans are really annoying especially ones that live in Toronto

I haven't had much interest in watching the Leafs on TV for the past few weeks.... They seem to be stuck and slumping badly.

I can usually tell the score as my daughter is screaming at the TV.

I'll tune in again at playoffs.

If the habs needed two points to get into the playoffs on the last game and we are tied with them with 2?minutes left. Id love go see Babcock pull our goalie 😉

You guys have it so tough.

Just watch Buffalo.

Yes, they're losing right now 2-0 at home to that powerhouse Red Wings team

If not for that 10-game win streak earlier this year, they'd be worse than last year, which I thought would be impossible.

At least the Leafs play, not just stand around......somebody takes the puck off Tavares and he goes ape$#!t and scores four.

Eichel wishes he could be Matthews. Or Marner. Or......

So......thank god for baseball. And F1.

Go Leafs Go!

This happened a few years ago exactly but they only needed one point and the Leafs didn't pull the goalie, went to ot and they got in...Leafs were not and could have been spoilers to our rival...I was very mad!

do you remember when we played Devils on a Saturday afternoon and Scott Clemenson was back up goalie to Brodeur and they played him and it went to shootout, we lost and did not make the playoffs? I watched it in Bahamas and was not pleased.
We made sure that would not happen again as we signed Clemenson the next year!

I believe the Leafs need one point over the next 5 games to clinch.
