Well, that looked a lot more like the Leafs we watched all year. Freddie let in two soft ones, but then played real well. And the kids were just flying. Long way to come back still, but that was much better. Oh, and we REALLY need to upgrade our defense.
Stellar effort all round but Freddie was superman in there.
I got your back!
And yeah baby, that’s the Leafs I remember!
And yes, they did keep the physical game going. And that paddle save by Andersen, are you kidding me!
And how many posts has Kappanen hit this series, lol?
I've been a hockey fanatic since 1975 and obviously have seen many thousands of games during those 43 years. Maybe it's just me, but this year's playoffs so far have been some of the most intense and hard-fought contests I ever remember seeing. Seems like almost every team has really kicked it up a couple of gears, and the speed and intensity are off the charts.
Great time to be a hockey fan! Game on!

Leafs fans may enjoy this Boston Globe column. Dan is primarily a baseball writer and he is the most acerbic of the Globe sportswriters. He is an acquired taste but whether or not you like him, the guy can write. I may have mentioned this before, but Leafs fans are basically pre-2004 Red Sox fans and Dan runs with that idea.

The paddle save reminded me of one that Tim Thomas had in against the Lightning in the 2011 Eastern finals. Good omen for Toronto but a little ominous for me. A lot has to go your way in order to win a Cup in any year, but the B's had more than their share of breaks that year.
It’s how we roll, I’ve already picked where I’m going to stand for the parade.
Well.
Kings had the shortest postseason possible. VGK totally outplayed them; they’re pretty good, actually.
Maybe next year for the Queens.

Knights all the way!
An expansion team winning the Stanley Cup? I'm all for it.
I'm officially on the bandwagon. They've been a great team all year they're like The Replacements of the NHL.

Fleury with another shutout as Las Vegas becomes just the second NHL team to win it's first four straight playoff games.
The only other team to do it? The 1970 Pens.
