He’s their #1 centre these playoffs. Penalties happen. That’s certainly a whoopsie there, but he’s playing very well.

I’m not even sure that cross checking Bunting in the head is a penalty anymore. Weak call

Love that Bennett gave him another one when he was down. Go Panthers.

Should be an additional penalty for the cross-check while he is in the ice too.

But we know refs are incapable of that.

Both teams are getting a boatload of scoring chances. It's entertaining as the game can flip in a heartbeat (as it has). I'm shocked Florida is playing this well and the Leafs just aren't playing defence. Great from an entertainment standpoint, but frustrating if you're a fan. The Leafs should have steamrolled Florida but their defence isn't planning on locking anyone down.

No kidding, gone from the high-priced joke back to making crazy good saves.

The Leafs have fantastic puck movement and passing and don't play with much edge. The Panthers have fantastic power and play with a lot of edge. They're totally different styles of play and fun to watch matched up against each other.

Florida has a neat chaotic element, they are hard as hell on the puck and pretty fast, and they just seem to find each other, it looks kind of confusing to defend against.

Review that hit by Bennett on Knies??

Unless i missed something that was about as nothing of a hit as any. Bennett is far from an angel, but what the hell are they talking about?

If you watch when Bennett tries to cut to the outside he swings his arm around and basically decks Knies right in the jaw and catches him in the face with his stick as well, then they collide, fall down etc.


The shot to the head right before the hit looks intentional to me.

I mean, Toronto is the last big market team left in the playoffs. Conspiracy or not I wouldn't be surprised if the league was trying to massage as much cash as they can out of this series. And a Florida sweep is worst case ontario.

I like Bennett a lot, but I don't like seeing that kind of stuff. Both him and Tkachuk have been making some plays this game that look like they're out to injure someone.

Yeah i see it now....still doesnt warrant further discipline IMO, though that should have been called at the time.

I don't know if Bennett does this stuff intentionally but he's definitely careless of the consequences to the other guy. I like his hands around the net but he's negligent at best when it comes to injuring guys.
