Bruins @ Leafs - Apr. 23rd, 7:00pm - CBC, Fan 590

I sincerely hope the Leafs have an answer to the way Boston steamrolled them in the third period of the last game.  Sure, part of it was probably because of all the penalties, but this needs to be addressed by Babcock and the coaching staff.  The Leafs are extremely fortunate to have taken this series to six games.  Boston hit the post twice last game and Andersen stood on his head.

The opening of the first period is going to be extremely interesting to watch.  It will probably set the tone for the entire game.  I'm really hoping the Leafs can hem Boston in their zone for awhile.  That's when they're playing at their best.

The Leafs have hit the post on some occasions as well, Dermott and Kapanen.  I think that stuff evens itself out.  Hopefully they stay off the penalty radar.

Big black cloud hanging over this game, for sure, so honestly I just hope they find a way to pull this one out.  Today is going to hurt for a while for me...too close to my family's home.

Go Leafs Go, nonetheless.

Yeah it's really tragic news.  The suspect looks deranged.  My thoughts go out to all involved.  The cop that took him down is an absolute hero.  I hope they have some kind of special award or recognition for him.

I hope you really are the oracle.

Plekanec starting with Mitch and Marleau.

I just woke up and heard the bad news. I was walking all around there yesterday...

 

[CarltonTheBear]

So refs still aren't calling interference apparently.

I honestly think they are trying to fix the series. They probably bet money on it.

 

[herman]

Well that?s a tough penalty to ignore.
Well earned by the Kadri line.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

JVR playing both PP units again. 

I'll have to invoice Babs for that one.

 

[herman]

Zaitsev looking surprisingly good tonight.

 

[herman]

What a retrieval by Brown at the end of his shift.

 

[ZBBM]

Zaitsev looking surprisingly good tonight.

He's been much better starting Game 3.

 

[x.jr.benchwarmer]

Zaitsev looking surprisingly good tonight.

I was just thinking that.

He actuallly has been reading the play better.

I was afraid to say it until after it cleared our zone

6/10 on Pasta?s dives

What the hell was on the back of Polak's neck? NHLers aren't starting that cupping crap, I hope?

Nylander was cupped earlier in the series.
