... PK especially, here's a tip, don't have a winger with a torn ACL taking defensive zone faceoffs on the PK against Bergeron.

Yup, still sounds stupid.

Because it was stupid. Babs made a few stupid moves that didn't help the Leafs.

That?s why it isn?t a particularly logical move when a coach employs an injured player, (in this case Hyman ), and with a deep injury in key situations.  This is what Babcock was being criticized for, as if there was/were no other possible alternatives.  Well, we all know how it turned out.  😏☹️🙂
 
Charging penalty?  No.  Clean helmet-less hit.  Yes.  Did the officials see it either way?  Unlikely.  That?s your (playoff) NHL Boston-style.

Looks like Krug was about to go after his perpetrator (#57 Perron) but imperceptibly veered course and aimed straight for Thomas:

If it had been Kadri, he would have been tagged no doubt.

We Leaf fans can all truly relate...

Kadri getting another 4 games for this one.

If he doesn't get the rest of the finals for that hit this league is a farce. Sundqvist doesn't only hit him from behind. He doesn't only catch mostly head. He turns away from the puck to make the hit.
 
Both goalies are just absolutely in their zone. Great hockey. It's a series!
Series tied 1-1.

Let's go Raptors!

Thanks to the Raptors, this is by far the least I have ever cared about a Stanley Cup final.

I forgot the final a few years ago when NJ made it in again somehow, whatever it was I realllly didn't care about that one.  I care about this to the extent that I hope Boston loses.  I may even watch the next couple.  I sure as hell am not gonna watch when they play in Boston.

Disagree. Not saying he hasn't been good but I think Binnington is the only reason the series is tied. Of the 5 goals against, not including the empty net, I think he should have had 3 of them. Rask on the other hand hasn't let in a softie yet. B's D looks vulnerable to the Blues forecheck.
