I'm going to be pissed if half the dome is blue tonight. I hope the boys make sure their crowd stays hush. Will be cheering loud for the good guys and in the proper colours. Leafs are still a joke getting bailed out by good goaltending. Let's expose and humiliate them!
You are going to be pissed then. The Leaf faithful are like cockroaches, they are everywhere and there are far too many of them.

Stupid wingers for Backlund. I don't understand this decision at all. Backlund has been one of the best players for the Flames all season and has certainly been our best defensive forward by a mile.
Reward his play by putting him on the 4th line with McGrattan and Bouma.
Totally ridiculous.

The Leafs are only effective off the rush. If the Flames stick to their structure and don't try to trade scoring chances they'll be fine.
The Bruins showed last year in the playoffs even playing their worst hockey that the Leafs are easily beaten if you grind them into the ice. The B's didn't even start playing their best until round 2.

They proved that? Did you watch the series? The Leafs were skating circles around them. If anything, if was proven the Bruins have trouble with speed.
Ugh, so many greasy people with Leaf jerseys on the streets today. There's nothing more I hate then young people who cheer for other city's teams when they have no personal connection (ie. they are from there). Cheer for your own city, you trend whores.

Why do people put so much into the lineups pre game. McG and Bouma are probably going to get 5 mins, Bouma maybe more tonight. Backlund will probably be up around 12 or more. Backlund will play when he's needed. He'll be on the pp, the pk. 5 on 5 depending on the situation he might be out with any number of wingers.
It's no different then having Butler on the 1st d pairing. He's not playing as many minutes as Wideman.
Things change. He's on the 4th line cause if you write your entire lineup on 1 line it'll confuse people, and they'll have no way to pre judge.
Serious questions, but do people actually think that the lineups before the game can't be changed? That the people say on line 1, aren't allowed to play with players on say, line 3 or 4? If your on line 4 does it mean that you aren't allowed to play more then 8 mins?
It is funny how everyone was happy to see the Leafs win last night, and now they're public enemy #1. They'll go back to being a favourite on Saturday against the Canucks.
