Loafs don't show up on time.

At home. In the playoffs.

Mike Babcock Country Club cancer.

Indeed, but Boston keeps thinking interference is legal, like it's the dead puck era, and they keep pushing their luck.

It's not even about Boston.

Just in general, at the strategic level, the Loafs still haven't developed a killer instinct.

Even if they beat Boston, that's just one round.

The Loafs haven't even ramped up to first round level of effort, never mind Stanley Cup Finals level.

Morgan Reilly goes knuckle puck wrister and The Hockey Gods smite the Bruins for repeatedly stupid and needless penalties.

[Smitty-48]

I want to beat Boston.

But that's nothing.

I don't give a fuck about winning a round.

Stanley Cup or bust.

I'm just not seeing that from the Loafs.

Boston has the initiative.

You're not really contending, until you impose your game on them.

That is what Columbus did to Tampa.

No sign of that from the Loafs so far.

The Loafs are passive.

They wait for Boston to dictate the terms.

That is what loser teams do.

Rask is garbage, that helps too.

Leafs keep phoning it in, Pastrnak catches fire. If it wasn't for Boston incompetence, it would be a complete rinsing.

Feels like the Loafs are toast.

They deserve to be.

The Hockey Gods do not favour squads who let teams off the mat.

Not usually, especially when the Leafs do it.

[Smitty-48]

Bottom line, this Loafs team is not playing like its going anywhere.

Getting past Boston is getting nowhere.

If they're not playing like they are way better than Boston, then they're not playing for the cup.

At which point the off season is already here.
