Description

Most of the team is afraid to take a hit, Komarov was clearly playing hurt already because he was even more useless.

Bozak and Plekanec are playing like they don't care if they sign another NHL contract...ever.

Hyman may not be able to win his share of draws but he really is the perfect 3rd or 4th line centre. And Moore has far outplayed any other 4th line centre we have so get him in there.

Now Martin isn't going to make a difference unless he runs everyone in a Bruins jersey and since the rest of the team is playing soft and weak, outside of JVR, Marleau, and Matthews half the time, put Martin in there to destroy everyone on every shift.

And enough with this stupid matchup game Babcock. You're costing yourself and the team, let them play. Let them off the leash or they'll continue to get eaten alive.

Bruins are eating you alive no matter what you throw at them. Pasta is better then Nylander and Marner, and is Matthews even playing in this series? You guys used to claim that your d-core is fast. Bruins D is fast and smart. they're decimating you. if u cant contain Bergerons line, your never winning a game. u cant outscore ur problems in the playoffs. The Big Bad Bruins are not only tough, but faster and smarter then the leafs.

The Bruins have one line. And the team can hit.

This Leaf team has played the percentages throughout the last 2 regular seasons but that clearly isn't working now when the season is on the line. We have more skill but the Bruins are tougher...if changes aren't made it is indeed over but this is far from over.

that one line ur talking about has 20 points in 2 games. and that apparent depth the leafs had in the regular season isn't doing crap against the bruins 2nd and 3rd lines. shoot even the bruins 4th line is scoring goals. bruins have equal amount of skill as you, but are also more experienced and smart. they're better defensively and play a high tempo game.

It's home ice in the playoffs. Nothing new. A million team's have jumped out to a 2-0 lead on home ice.

Sure, the Leafs have looked hopeless but it's not over. Right now Babcock is the difference and it's been all negative so far.
