So funny. Many in the Boston media are recalling game 7 against Leafs 3 years ago and how some of them thought that the Bruins could come back against the Sens.

For Leaf fans, the great series they had against Washington and the promise they show should allow you to finally get over the shame of the last 10 minutes against the Bruins. It may be the worst 10 minutes of hockey ever played.

Time to move on!

Seldom happens. Good young teams that exceed expectations usually fall back in subsequent year.

Playoffs tell you a lot about the future.

Do not discount the fact that game 6 was played with Claesson and Harpur and that Wideman (healthy scratch) and Borowiecki (injured) were not in the line up.

Next year the Sens will start Chabot, Harpur and Claesson on the back end. Their defence is going to get a lot bigger, younger and faster with a lot more firepower.

Phaneuf and Ceci played a monster game. As the Bruins did everything to try and stop Karlsson they also made it too easy for Phaneuf and Ceci. They recorded an unheard of plus 90 CF% in game 6. The fancy stat guys are still working on trying to figure out and explain the meaning of their number.

I dont know that thats the case.
I would be willing to make a wager on that.

the chance of the Leafs winning 1 game is better than the Sens winning the Series.

I get that your Fan bias is in play here...but lets wager on that

I guess nobody wins our bet

I was wrong about the leafs winning a game, and you were wrong about Ottawa moving to the 2nd rd

another bet?

Its going to be interesting where "Experts" start to put the Leafs in the pre season projections for next season.

Too soon to start talking about that?

Not a good thing..but maybe necessary
Chicago went 10 seasons and played 5 playoff games from 97-2008

I like the direction the leafs are going now.. if they made the playoffs a couple times we might still have crappy management in place

That sounds like about the same amount of games the Panthers played over the same period.

Lets put things in perspective.

Both the Senators and leafs benefited form things that happened to other teams.

Stamkos injury

Eichel injury

Florida going all in on analytics, and trading away two of their best dmen and firing the coach as a result

I suspect if Florida "stood pat" and returned with basically the same team that won the division the season before, and if Buffalo and Tampa had Eichel and Stamkos healthy for the entire season ............ then probably neither Ontario team make the playoffs.

The teams you're referring to had something else in common, other than age: awful possession numbers, which many used to predict their regression.

Being a sore winner is a well documented sign of insecurities.

are you being serious? a healthy Bruins team ruins the senaturds.

the senaturds are a terrible team.

I feel like you're going extra sarcastic right now, but not sure.

wait. I think you are. I think you're egging the senatards on.

LOL, nope. Everyone knew Boston was injured and the Sens are under-rated I think.
