The "crap losing team" was also built for the playoffs.

I'm still keeping my expectations low, just enjoying the ride.

Habs won 24 of 56 games they have no business in the playoffs. That being said an epic choke by the Leafs would be awesome.

North champ is gonna get embarrassed anyway though. Imagine the AVS vs the Habs lol

Its all about who wants it more this time of year. Some guys rise up and others wither.
Patrick Kane 5'10". 177 lbs.

His first 2 hat tricks in the NHL were in playoff elimination games.

Part of me wants to throw some money down on the Leafs to win. That should guarantee them a loss.

And the Oilers were supposed to win in a walk, too. Regular season means dick at this point.

They should really throw Romanov in there. Sure it's on the road and a bad idea but you know, the element of surprise and all that.

I thought the Oilers would lose

Are you honestly suggesting the Habs could hang with the Avs?...no really

My point about the regular season was if not for covid they miss...last year too

If there is a chance to squash the Leafs Nation media early you take it. Even if that means supporting Perry

This is the incorrect answer.

Leafs not winning a playoff series since 2004 is epic, and that streak should continue.

If the Leafs win, feel good for BigBrodieFan.

If they lose, feel good for rest of Canada!

Win-win

This game 7 will get monster ratings for sure. Especially if it goes right down to the wire.

Over or under 10 millions of people watching on TV? And add the people who will stream the game.

A heap of dead leaves burns pretty quickly.

Looking forward to filling my pool with the tears of Ontarians later.

To me there are only two possible outcomes tonight.

Leafs play to their full potential, and just crush the Habs like 5-1.

Or Habs win a low scoring game like 2-1.

If the Leafs win though I think it has to be a blowout. As long as the game is close, and especially if Leafs get behind early, then they Habs will win as that pressure will just start to build on the Leafs players.
