K-9 Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 May have to adjust my Canes/Caps prediction. Canes pressed hard and controlled early, but the Caps woke up and have taken command. Interesting to see if Canes don’t crumble.

Bruins look flat, crowd is flat, that horrible PP is costing them right now. An icing and then another stupid play causing a penalty shot. Yikes.
njbuff Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Is it me or are the Leafs playing some sort of form of the NZT?
T&C Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Empty netter by Toronto was sweet... small dagger inserted. Tampa going down last night was the same, both of these series are the main ones I'm watching for round one.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 CBJ won, and the Leafs / Leaves won and the CAPS won and the Pens lost. I'm satisfied thus far. 9 hours ago, T&C said: Empty netter by Toronto was sweet... small dagger inserted.

The Caps missed two empty netters facing a 6 on 4 matchup. after the PK they got an empty netter in the final seconds capping the win 4-2

Leafs played well, their forwards helped their D a lot last night. Didn’t see much of that last year. Bruins better come out on fire Saturday or they are in trouble. 1

I like how the Canes responded to the adversity, especially after dominating the first 10 minutes only to be down 3 zip in the next 10. A young club can often implode. Agree that Boston looked flat, but the Leafs had everything to do with why. They were quicker to every puck and made Rask look foolish as well. Lot of pressure on Boston to respond.

Lot of pressure on Boston to respond. the whole thing started out sloppy. guys were falling all over the place w/o help. the Canes problems were they tried to out "toughen" the Caps. Hit hard and take shots, throw punches. That didn't work so well. The Caps kept their cool and as the Canes realized their mistake it was too late. the 2nd period was played well by both teams. not as sloppy as the 1st. in the 3rd the Caps relaxed a bit then played tough when it mattered. The Caps outplayed the Canes playing 4 men against 6 attackers. nerve racking yet awesome at the same time

row_33 Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Bruins didn't care at all after the first 10 minutes although i have waited for that game for months and a big Leafs fan, i turned it off when it was 2-1, it was soooooooooooooooo boring, and been a long month at work

millbank Posted April 12, 2019 Posted April 12, 2019 Game one results were interesting . But they only game one . Leafs need win their home games . Boston only need win on Saturday and split in Toronto and Toronto locals will be wringing their hands . Just starting way to early to conclude anything

Just starting way to early to conclude anything i would enjoy the Leafs moving on and the Raptors getting bounced in the first round, the opposite of what practically every realistic Toronto sports fan is counting on.
PetermansRedemption Posted April 13, 2019 Posted April 13, 2019 3-0 Columbus. I did not in my wildest dreams expect them to take the series back to columbus up 2-0 but I love it. I always root for the upset. 1

Somehow I think Torts won’t let them forget that.
CommonCents Posted April 13, 2019 Posted April 13, 2019 The Islanders crowd takes the cake. Impressive.
