2nd Rnd '25 Playoffs: Leafs vs Panthers - Flo-Rida them onto the ECF - LFG!

I have one of the auction catalogs.
When the Forum closed I ordered a red seat the next day. But to my recollection there was no auctioning off of artifacts. There was a section of the penalty box that ended up in the basement of what is now La Cage Aux Sports at the Bell Centre (what was called Ovation! when the Molson Centre first opened) but other than that I have no idea what happened to anything else that was in there. It's certainly all long gone now.
 
If I’m not mistaken…

Stolarz gave up 5 goals once all season + playoffs.

Panthers scored 5 or more goals in the 3 of 6 games after Stolarz got hurt.
In two of those games we only scored one goal. Stolarz might have helped but unless he was posting a shutout we were losing those games

I only have a piece of the boards and a small square of a seat. Someone messaged me that there were about 200 green seats out back of the gardens waiting for the garbage truck to get them. I wish that I was downtown that day
 
I suspect that even if the Leafs had scored in overtime in game 3, they would have lost in game 7

If they win game 3, they very, very likely win the series. There's a huge difference when an experienced team like the Panthers is on their heels, or smell blood. After coming back and winning game 3, they smelled blood.

We all saw that blood well before the playoffs even began. Gameplay during the regular season was less than fortifying. All the shortcomings were visible to all of us. But being an optimistic bunch we hoped, and prayed, they'd get it all together for the playoffs. Nope.

You underestimate this team’s choking capabilities.

I mean, fuck, they only just barely avoided going from three up on the Sens to playing in a game seven they surely would have puked all over themselves in by getting thoroughly outplayed in game six but somehow managing to hang on and win.

If we had taken the Panthers best punch in game 3 and still managed to win, the chances that the Panthers rolled over and died would go up massively. Of course it's not beyond this groups ability to choke away, but a way higher chance of the Panthers never getting the ground under their feet and just rolling over.
