Leafs are the better team so not out of it.

Yes, I hope they are done, but the reaction out of Toronto seems rather extreme. Let's wait another game. The Samsonov criticism out of Toronto is also unwarranted I think. He gave up a softie, but was well good enough for the Leafs to win. He was outstanding after the Panthers went ahead 3-2, and kept his team in the game till they found their footing in the third. Overall, I have been impressed with him in the playoffs.

Let in 2 bad goals
 
Fact is, he's been good enough in a position that I thought was a real weakness for them. That said, I hope he falls to pieces in the next one.

KK does well when his team is dominating the other. But doesn't seem to produce in tight games.

KK is a guy who scores when it's not that important. If you're down by 4 goals he can make it 3 goals. If you're up by 2, he can put you up by 3 or 4. But he isn't the go-to guy when you're tied or behind by a goal.

It's like the Nordiques back in the 80's. Goulet would score 50 meaningless goals a year while every important goal was scored by either Peter Stastny or Dale Hunter.

A more healthy ‘Canes team would be heavy Cup favorites. They play the right way.

Yup - they lack finishing it’s showed vs Isles even though it hasn’t vs a defensively challenged NJD team. Svechnikov & Pacioretty would’ve made a huge difference
