Am I excited?? Not really. Could a Game 1 victory get me excited? Pretty sure it would. As much as I’m disappointed in the play of the Leafs over the last few games I’ve seen them turn it around many times just like this. There a 0 guarantees in life so it’s not a slam dunk the Bruins will beat us. If the Leafs play the way they can it might be a good series.

But mix in a Game 1 win and I just might be. The question is what team shows up. |

Nothing moving forward can be remotely compared to anything we've seen in the last 4 games.
That goes for the Bruins too who just sleepwalked their final games as well.
Tampa tried to sleep in that last game, but making sure Kucherov got to 100 assists meant they had to up their game to do that and then up their game again to be sure Matthews didn't score #70 on them.

It’s too bad the Leafs didn’t want to up their game to get Auston #70 and make sure Kucherov didn’t get his 100th assist. That would have been enjoyable to watch. |

I’m hearing a possibility of no Nylander for Game 1 and McMann. Domi good to go. Jarnkrok good to go.

Based on the fact that neither one practiced today I doubt either will play. We can sure use Willy if he’s Playoff Willy and not the guy that leisurely skated over the puck and to the bench which gave a breakaway goal to Tampa last game. His head just hasn’t seemed right the last bunch of games. |

Play positionally well, roll 3 lines, cut down on ice space, they can win easily.
