Record Scratch - Freeze Frame

You're probably wondering how I got here,

The dunking on the Leafs on Twitter is legendary today. Now I understand the dread better.

How to get me to change the channel in one easy step.

I don't think there's anything that annoys me more than those type of setups.

Just goes to show how hockey is the ultimate team game & no other pro sports league has the level of parity as the NHL - albeit cap enforced parity.

Hockey can be easily manipulated by officiating. I believe that is your meaning.

I could not relax every time the Leafs had the puck. They didn't really play that badly, they just couldn't finish when they needed a goal. Something we understand all too well.

Considering that the Leafs have done this several times before, it kinda is about them more than their opponents. The Habs played well, but had the Leafs done their job it wouldn't have mattered how well the Habs played.

Leafs will never get another gift wrapped easy division schedule

Incredible how their X factors all produced

No experience goalie was solid , secondary support pieces produced very well

Nylander and Kerfoot labelled softies had an excellent round

Its all on 16 and 34 , major disappointment

They probably played a total of 30 minutes of good hockey in the last 3 games. No push in the last game.

Yeah. That was really surprising to be honest considering their recent history.

Two things happened that they allowed to happen

1) they thought it was a five game series and that it was in the bag

More importantly

2) whistles get put away even deeper in the pocket in elimination games.
