Honestly I just didn't want them to get swept. Even if they won tonight, 9 playoff games in, I was pretty sure they are who they are and they were still gonna lose the series. But getting swept or even just being down 3-0 is just so embarrassing. But leafs will leaf.

I hope they get swept. Just want it to be over as soon as possible at this point. Rip the bandaid off and get to cleaning house and dynamiting this roster.

Trade everyone.

How do you not come out tonight with your foot on the gas?

Because they rarely have over several years now. That extra gear needed in the playoffs is inexplicably missing

I already booked vaca for upcoming Sunday departure after first 2 games

And after all this I think Matthews is probably gone. He doesn't strike me as a guy who has to prove the doubters wrong and make it happen here. Amazing talent but the guy isn't a Crosby or a Jordan psycho competitor. Don't think he's sticking around to get ridiculed in this market year after year for being a choker.

All this hype over winning a round LOL nothing has changed. Major changes this summer.

Dubas & Keefe have to be gone right away. Dubas tied himself to this core and they failed once again.

Marner has to go. They need massive changes.

Have to acme tnt this bitch in the off season. Not sure an untouchable exists

Credit to xgf% btw. It was the only true Florida Panther believer this season. And it thought they were every bit as good as Toronto. And better than Tampa.

 

[JackBurton]

We played worse this year in the playoffs than last year.

Crazy that Panthers barely made it to the dance

Isn't even debateable. Drais is putting-up Gretzky and Lemeiux like playoff PPG

they chose to become a different team in order to win. it was a choice.
