XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX....the Leafs are in the playoffs!!!!!
Rejoice buddy !! Like I said "more probable than not" ,, the odds were on their side, that they would make it
The only thing left for the Leafs, to cap this successful year is Matthews to win the ROY and Babcock to win the COY
The Leafs are 40-26 with 249 GF ,, 3rd in the league and 15 OTL ,, first in the league .... had this team had a better defence and
Had the golie played better (Anderson 14 OT) The team could have turned 5-7 of those OTL into wins, they could have finished
47-26 ... atop of the division
With an adjustments at defense and if Anderson improves over this summer ,, this team is well on its way to better days
Awesome game last night! Go Leafs Go!
Gardiner was 5mins from being ran out of town lmao. Big mac filled that empty spot the leafs have been looking for all season. They can rest some players now lol. Ottawa is beat up T.O. can knock them off on their way to stanleys cup with their dynasty.
Remember what the media did to Reimer when Boston beat them?...............that would have been nothing to what they`d had done to Gardiner. Stevie Wonder sees the ice better than this kid game after game after game. And he led them with a +25....goes to show you something on the dependability of stats as your sole rating point. Buy/trade for something dependable on the back end and we do indeed have the makings of a hockey team....nice change.Quote:

According to the official NHL site, it will be the battle of Ontario in the first round, Leafs are 3rd in the Atlantic.
Yea Costa they are third in the Atlantic for now because they have played one less game, but they need a point today if they want to play Ottawa in the first round, if they fail to get the point today they will play the Caps in the first roundQuote:

Goaltending wins playoffs....will be interesting to see if one of the pylons will step up and steal a series.
leafs caps, Thursday at 7 gonna be interesting to say the least. who's got more pressure on them.
