Nylander woke up after my post
Hopefully this will galvanize him to be the Viking he is in the rest of the series

Tavares misses on another chance. Guess I was wrong. Game over.
(Expletives here) Bobrovsky.
Leafs their own worst enemy after taking the 2-0 lead. The goalposts were their second worst enemy.
Now they have to go on the road. Luckily they are 3-0 on the road, we will see if they can continue that trend. This isn't insurmountable unless they let Bobo continue to beat them. Rangers won the first two on the road from Tampa in the semis last year and lost, so it can be done.
Disappointed tonight with the result and some of the lazy giveaways, but overall a very good effort. Effort won't win a series alone, though. Need some of those 4 posts to go in next game.

Overall we've been the better team, they have Bobrovsky. That is all.

Time for 11-7 and hopefully Knies is ok. Having 2 days off is a good thing.

That's why I said 11-7 lol. Gio is looking old and I'd rather have Gus' offence when we need a push.Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate said:

Not so sure about going 11-7 but would be in favour of bringing Gustafsson into the fold and booting Gio to the press box. Gustafsson would give PP a differnet look and Gio had been struggling to move the puck all playoffs with the up tempo pace of play and should not be on the ice as a lone PP dman anyway, it is just too much of a liability counting on him vs speedy Pk forwards.

Reality is, it's always going to be tricky to go on a deep playoff run when you're sort of sifting through the discount bins for your goaltending. The last few years the Leafs have been particularly unlucky in that they've run into goalies destined for the HHOF in the first round. This year they finally managed to clear that hurdle but, realistically, if consensus around the league was that Samsonov is the kind of goalie the Leafs need him to be, they wouldn't have been able to sign him for what they signed him for.
There's still time for him to prove that wrong and this series could easily flip if the Leafs top lines start producing but they've made things very tough on themselves now.

You're right, Samsonov has had flashes of brilliance, but like Freddie he's prone to letting one in and so far he's let one in in each game.
