For Borje - The Toronto Maple Leafs 2023 Stanley Cup Champions Thread

[Wayward DP]

I'm curled up in the fetal position right now. What else do you have on me?

I suspect my time is coming too... eeeek.

Truthfully, zen kinda went out the window when the Bolts scored like 2 seconds in on Tuesday. This year was all about preserving mental sanity til the playoffs for me. I’ll ride the roller coaster like all you other schmucks now.

I've already built a Knies statue after 1 playoff game and I'm a game away from planning a parade or blowing up the entire roster. Nice to have you by my side.

funny enough, I was totally detached in game one. just didn't really give a fuck.

but game two, different story. when we had the 3-1 lead and Tampa was almost generating some pressure, felt it in the stress muscles

We have created an environment where sitting on the fence is the only safe play. But that's hard to do for me during playoffs. None of what I say during playoff season can be used against me in any hindsight related post at a later date. Everything before that is fair game.

I believe that's called a "minor heart attack"

Fuck it, let your nuts hang. Form an opinion and ride it until the wheels fall off, drink from public water fountains, base jump. Take risks.

does Eyssimont count? he would have been a healthy scratch if he could have played.

i'll count him.

I should add in Bunting (3) as a missing player, too.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Only two more suspended games till his next suspension.

I, for one, am excited to see how the next one plays out!

 

[blkngldbabe]

This forum gets more unhinged every year. We really need a cup.

It works. Two girls, minimum one cup.

Missing Bunting yielded Knies + (-Cernak) which is >> Bunting + Muzzin + whatever deadline player you wanted Dubas to get but didn't

TL;DR Bunting's head shot erased Dubas bad last day at the trade deadline

point is, tampa has zero depth, leafs have tons.

 

[mbow30]

Sometimes it pays to have 14 defensemen

that's a good way to express that fact...not sure anyone disagrees. Tampa has been losing depth for a few years now...this year's standings and LOFeyetest (patent pending) both back that up

so we'll stop hearing about Tampa's injuries any minute now.

lay off the afternoon drinking...what does the Leaf's depth have anything to do with Tampa's injury woes?
