The help always goes to those who don't need it like Tom Brady, never the lowly Leafs on the verge of elimination again.

it sure seems that way. Though I don't care about Brady anymore. Still stings a little that w didn't beat him in SBLV, yeah, but that wasn't on Andy, Spags or anything besides the fact that the injury bug bit down hard on our OL right before the big game. If Fish and Schwartz had been healthy, we probably win that game in spite of the shitty officiating against our defense.

Or if anyone Pat hit between the numbers/facemask could've caught some of those TD passes . . .

Wow, nice goal.

Damn, this has OT written all over it, and I can't stay to watch that.

Nice elbow by the Panthers at the end there.

Someone would have to die on the ice to call a penalty at this point in this league.

And the silliness of it is someone whacks the puck over the glass inadvertently, and letter of the law says that's a penalty, no questions asked.... but, don't want to decide a series by calling an elbow to the face and blatant interference. :doh!:

Nice bit of interference there by the Panthers there on the final goal to win the series. They know exactly how the NHL works, the Leafs don't.

Yeah, they should really revise that rule and give some discretion to the refs. It was never intended to be on plays like that when it was instituted.

Literally grabs the stick with his right hand too.

Leafs elimination day is always a good day , and somehow their fans still manage to stay obnoxious and unbearable even without any of the success.

Imagine being McDavid or Draisaitl... one of the best players in the world...... watching your teammates, every ****ing year take stupid penalties, get themselves suspended for goonery, or show off the Mike Smith in themselves.

Damn.

Crap.
