Nothing like blowing a three goal lead in eight minutes.

Think the home crowd can't have an affect on the game? Tune into the senators bruins game.

Ryan taken down in the crease, one Sen just stands there and watches, rest of his team skates away. That team sure looks deflated

Shattenkirk owned on that dump in and it leads to a goal.

Listening to Bob Cole call a game is so awesome. Especially compared to some of the guys like Romanuk and nearly every US regional announcer. He might say the odd name wrong and get behind the play infrequently but I'd take that every game.

Watching all of the other series (especially Washington and Boston) it makes me realize just how tight our series is and how tight Anaheim plays. This is at least the third goal I have seen with the goalie down and out and the puck laying in a soft spot in front of the net. I don't think you would walk out of that area with your head attached if there was a loose puck in that area...

Also I don't think Washington will make it to the finals. Pittsburgh will work them. They desperately need a Regehr and Orpic is not that guy.

Disagree. No disrespect to his career, but his best years are past him. Frequently behind the play or just confused as to what is going on. It's time to retire.

It really annoys me how much the Leafs and Oilers improved in one season.

26 point improvement for the Leafs and 33 point improvement for the Oilers.

Now both making noise in their 1st round series too.

Goddamn Annoying with a capital 'A'

amazing that both Boston and Toronto have come back in their games...

To be honest, i saw the lineup Toronto has, and thought its a ton of talent, but they are probably a year away... but Babcock has them playing lights out! Amazing. and i am not even a leafs fan...

ottawa, that's a major faux pax... letting a 3-0 lead slip... man, that's will be interesting to see if they can respond

that's what winning the Lottery does for you (Four in the Oilers case)...

sadly, we never got that bad or got that lucky. Give Toronto a TON of credit though... they built that line up through the draft... and Babcock is the best coach in hockey.

You know what I love? Scott Oake's interviews. He's actually asking difficult questions and things that are relevant to the game that's ongoing. I hope he keeps it up.

The joys of tanking/consistently sucking. The NHL rewards it.

Not tonight. He's been great. I'd rather have him behind the odd play than have to listen to other guys who are frequently just plain wrong with what they say. He just calls the game, and gets appropriately excited with close plays. Rick Ball is excellent but the other PBP guys are not for me. Especially Romanuk who says many more names wrong. "Gorjano" cringe.

3rd OT game in a row in a tied series against the President's Trophy winners. Leafs fans have got to be pretty ecstatic.

Boy the feed showing the Leafs game is noticeably sharper than the Ottawa/Bruins feed on SNW. The Leafs feed switched to the Ottawa game is it looks considerably better than the SNW feed for the same game.
