Up 2-0 in the opening round best of seven series, the Leafs head to the nation’s capital in hopes of putting the Sens out of their misery. Let’s not get too ahead of ourselves here, though, and win each shift, period and matchup to lead to victory. Dedication and discipline is the way. Go Leafs Go!

  9. I don’t necessarily expect a win as Ottawa still is no joke and are a capable team who need a game that turns them around in this series.

    They see what we bring in the playoffs and will adjust and play balls to the wall to avoid a loss at home, and it all starts with this first game in Ottawa.

    What I do expect is that our team plays with passion and heart for a full 60, and is prepared to make adjustments themselves to weather the onslaught, set or instill a tone themselves, and use their now seasoned playoff chops to keep it close, look like the better team that they are, and maybe – just maybe – persevere.

    GLG!

  11. I’m expecting a very dominant performance. Boys aren’t going to like the fact that they almost let game 2 slip away.

  12. it will be interesting to play in ottawa for the first time in this series. i wonder how much blue and white will be in the crowd. to the leafs fans that show up… get loud!

    i’ll be at the metallica concert so i won’t be able to watch fully. but will definitely try to find a stream or something in between the openers’ sets. hopefully the game goes great and we keep playing good hockey cause a 3-0 lead is just what we need

  14. Much like a 2-0 lead in a playoff game, this next one will be the difference between clenching for the foreseeable future and breathing for the foreseeable future.

  15. I’m gunna miss the first half cause I’ll be at work. If the buds score I hope somebody fills in for me on the “somebody suck me front” it’s been good luck so far this series

  19. another home game

    Sens fans quickly turning into Jets fans. There has not been a real rivalry in 20 years. Their angst reminds me of when Vancouver had an imaginary rivalry with the Leafs as if anyone cared.

    They think Greig is getting under Matthews/Stolarz skin, all I see is a player getting completely punked on for his antics? Like ive been saying, they want the big bad Bruins culture so bad as an identity because its the Leafs boogeyman, but nobody cares and none of the players can hold a candle to the guys they had during those years.

    OEL,Mccabe,Tanev,Benoit, Carlo, & even Rielly are not intimidated by the pests on that Sens team. This is basically the Defensive unit Burke would be gooning to while he spurts out truculence

  20. Leafs gonna destroy them this game, absolute anihilation 6-0, then we’ll lose game 4 and people will blow up just to win game 5 and close the series, as perdicted by yours truly

  21. i hope auston or willy crack ullmark, im really hoping one or both absolutely pop off.
