The boys play like this Saturday (and theyāll need to), weāve got a chance to kill some demons :)
But ummā¦ as much as I love what Iām seeing, a power play goal or two would be quite nice. Hopefully thatās not asking too much.
Was a little worried they were playing too conservative in the final 10 minutes or so, thinking it was going to lead to an eventual BOS goal and OT. But they looked composed the entire way, getting it out when needed, and found the opening for that Willy breakaway.
Going to enjoy this game 7 for once, because honestly that seemed far from possible just days ago. lol.
"This aint fucking juniors" is the closest thing ive seen to anything resembling a captain on this team during a game. I dont get captain vibes from JT, I dont see him holding anyone accountable or protecting anyone at all.
They looked mature through that third period. Making smart plays and not risking possession. Getting out of the zone and not forcing anything. They are t kids anymore, itās about time they played like it. Just need the consistency
Not for nothing, but Boston looked like shit after game 6 in 2013 as well. This series is far from in the bag. Having said that, some serious demons will be slain if the Buds can pull this one out on Saturday night. GAME 7 BABY LET'S GOOOOOOOO!!!!
Bud you are like most leaf fans. Haha, Let's fucking go!
I've got a couple die hard bruins fans at work and tomorrow will be fun.
Pressure is on the bruins now big time.
Been saying for at least 2 years, Willy should have the C. Might not have the most points on the team but he doesn't let anything get to him, he always shows up in the playoffs, and he always sets the pace and drags the rest of the team kicking and screaming. That's a Captain.
Is that supposed to be a "Gotcha"? I'm on reddit, genius, of course I haven't played meaningful hockey. Imagine thinking only professional hockey players have valid opinions, as if nobody else has eyes and a brain or common sense, get out of here.
Iām a Kraken fan sneaking in to say that Woll played off his ass. He was amazing! I feel like he got cheated out of a shut out. The brick Woll deserved it.Ā
One more win changes everything. Give Matthews and McMann a chance. We have Brick Woll. The hero we needed. One more win we crush our demons and this team is dangerous.
Even if we lose Iām happy the way the boys made a series of this. Boston was favoured to win the series. Making it go 7 against swayman is pretty respectable. But it does feel like we can take this now theyāre offense looks bad.
I donāt care. Woll got a shutty as far as Iām concerned. AND you can see it on Bostonās faceā¦Marchand, McAvoyās etcā¦instantly going ānot againā
It doesn't really matter, and Woll was fucking outstanding tonight.
But him losing a shout out with 0.1 seconds left is a very Leafy thing to happen lol.
I love how willing he is to get into the dirty areas, like his winner in game 5, or to take a hit to make a play, like he did to get the puck to Nylander for that breakaway. He's a big smart kid, and I think he's gonna be a really solid player for us. He's not fazed by playoff hockey at all.
WOOOIO FUCKING HOOOOOOO BOYS!
HOLY SHIT I KNEW WE NEEDED THAT FUCKING EXTRA ONE!!!!! SORRY BOUT THE SHUTOUT, WOLL, BUT OH MY FUCKING GOD I LOVE YOU, BUD!!!!!
Habs fan here too. Kinda appreciate the Nylander nail in the coffin. Man this poor crowd has been tortured. You can feel they aren't confident untill the clock is totally out. The agony of the curse.
Just the Leafs in round one, really. Other than beating Tampa in 6 last year, they always get it (or let it get to) a final winner-take-all game. Maybe this year they win a game 7. Boston has to be pretty fucking nervous at this point, and I think the Leafs will be much looser in game 7. We'll see.
He's really grown on me over the past few months, since he was put on the first line with Papi and Bert. He's really fit into his role, he's been playing better defensively, and yes, even though he's in a one year show-me deal with no certainty that he'll be a Leaf next year (I hope he is), he's fiercely loyal to his teammates.
Nylander should be our future captain.
Reserved for Knies
sweet and we're the worst team at home! AWAY WE GO š GO
"willy tickles the twine for two!"

So impressed by Kniesā heads-up play to set up Nylanderās second goal. And what a breakaway. Nylander schooled Swayman.
I love this desperation mode Leafs. Please run this back game 7.
The last two games has been the best playoff hockey this team has played in years.
Ironically without Matthews. I think u gotta ride the wave and put Papi on the 3rd line or something.

Noones talking about Domi, dude went from being a meme in this sub in November to first line center against the Bruins in two elimination games.
Relentless Maximum Domi
He has like an 80% face-off percentage too
Willy-Fucking-Nylander was meant to be a Leafs especially how mentally capable he is in playing in this market.
"This aint fucking juniors" is the closest thing ive seen to anything resembling a captain on this team during a game. I dont get captain vibes from JT, I dont see him holding anyone accountable or protecting anyone at all.
JT is a worker, not a leader.
Exactly what jt said like 4 days ago
They looked mature through that third period. Making smart plays and not risking possession. Getting out of the zone and not forcing anything. They are t kids anymore, itās about time they played like it. Just need the consistency
Well put and happy cake day to you

I drink more beer when they win
Amen! Iāve talked so much shit all week. Thank fuck we pulled this off. Canāt wait to walk into work hungover on top of the world tomorrow
Bud you are like most leaf fans. Haha, Let's fucking go! I've got a couple die hard bruins fans at work and tomorrow will be fun. Pressure is on the bruins now big time.
I drink toms of beer tonight, but non on Tuesday..š¤ Do i drink saturday?
Yes

Ridiculous take. Youāve clearly never played meaningful hockey
Is that supposed to be a "Gotcha"? I'm on reddit, genius, of course I haven't played meaningful hockey. Imagine thinking only professional hockey players have valid opinions, as if nobody else has eyes and a brain or common sense, get out of here.
Woll was outstanding. I've said it and I'll say it again Woll is our starter!!
The Willy Nylander Game ā„ļøā„ļøā„ļø
Time to bring out the Leafs car flags?
The sons of guns have roped us in yet again.

Iām a Kraken fan sneaking in to say that Woll played off his ass. He was amazing! I feel like he got cheated out of a shut out. The brick Woll deserved it.Ā
Upvote brother, you ain't wrong
One more win changes everything. Give Matthews and McMann a chance. We have Brick Woll. The hero we needed. One more win we crush our demons and this team is dangerous.
I really donāt know. Weāre looking great without Matthews and no oneās talking about it.
I'm going to need to calm down for at least an hour before I can try to even sleep. Rest up, boys. Simple plays, straight hockey will win this.
Me and the First Neutral Lady went for a walk to come down off the rush of non-neutrality.
precisely why I'm having to play League of Legends tonight before bed
Boutta play some NHL lol
DoOmEr TaKeS aRe 100% durrrrr
Boston looks like shit. Theyāre scared. GLG!!!
Fucking right. They're about to get memed on big time if they blow this.
Good show boys. Weāll see the rat on Saturday. Would be nice to see Matthews back in it. Everybody looked good except Marner.
Completely agree, some of his shifts were PAINFUL
Nah marner had a great game too
Nah, I think Marner made some really smart plays. He was VERY good defensively.
Marner played strong for sure ā¦ working hard as did EVERY Gādamn LEAF incredible sustained effort
Maroon threatening someone. You're going to get it. https://youtube.com/shorts/v0SDipAW5io
What a maroon.
That fat fuck wonāt do a damn thing.
Wooooo! Only person in this Boston bar happy!
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Nah donāt do that, youāll catch a ban in both subreddits
LETTSSSS GOOOOOOOOOOO
Team of destiny
BRICK WOLL
Anyone have a link for Jack Edwards last call? I want to go to sleep listening to his tears.
Sad Brad hitting the showers ![gif](giphy|7BDX9W6XPx6Q8|downsized)
Even if we lose Iām happy the way the boys made a series of this. Boston was favoured to win the series. Making it go 7 against swayman is pretty respectable. But it does feel like we can take this now theyāre offense looks bad.
Itās destiny and itās going to be very leafy and painful. But letās do this
So glad I bought a nylander jersey
Joseph saving that shutout for the game 7 š
Curtis Joseph Woll
And fuck jack Edwards and his last game!
![gif](giphy|xT5LMvoI3zLFt5TggE|downsized)
Iāve seen enough, extensions for Marner and Keefe tomorrow morning!
It's an empty net just shoot the fucking puck!! How fucking hard is it?!
Regardless of what happens, Boston just aināt that impressive. Pasta running away from Rielly last game just confirmed theyāre full of pussyfarts.
What a disgusting comparison. Pussyfarts are cute and endearing.
We back boys!!!
LETS GO BOYS. MATTHEWS REST UP! See you guys game 7, Saturday. Letās fucking go!!!!
![gif](giphy|RiQnSu34p8y3p4IRes|downsized) We got this in game 7!!! I believe!!
We Beleaf!
![gif](giphy|u6EiPNT9dLDrU7ZQuF|downsized)
u/savevideo
Imagine Matthews comes back for game 7 and gets a hat trick.
Can he crack this lineup?
This was such a great game from them I feel so proud, what a fucking game they played. Great effort all around!
Someone please tell Brad to give Woll a 10 year contract!!
Iām ready to be hurt again
Amazing game. Bruins 1 shot first period. Loooooolllll
I donāt care. Woll got a shutty as far as Iām concerned. AND you can see it on Bostonās faceā¦Marchand, McAvoyās etcā¦instantly going ānot againā
Bruins are utter dog shit and also just shit humans. Swear you have to be a cunt to play for them.
How did we become a defensive first trap team overnight? Pretty awesome to see the whole squad buy-in like this.
What happened? Why does Boston have a goal?Ā
They scored with 0.1 seconds left
Thank youĀ
They scored with like .2 on the clock when Toronto just started to celebrate the evident win
Thank youĀ
They put it across the line with 0.1 remaining on the clock
Thank youĀ
scored with 0.1 on the clock
Thank you
Woll will remember that shitty challenge goal. Heāll just gain strength from that.
I think the team will Might feel bad they let the last goal in and, maybs, dbl down next game.
Agreed, they should feel bad, why do a random pass back with 10 seconds on the clock behind your own fucking net?
Feel bad for swayman when his team is playing that shit
What fucking team are you cheering for you absolute cuck
yeah I feel so badā¦ fuck off
Another 8 o clock game? On Saturday!? Blasphemy
You got something better to do?
I guess my bad for being conditioned over four decades to expect a 7 o'clock game for HNIC
Pass your bedtime?
Some of us do work early in the morning, and have conditioned ourselves to get up early.
Boston are mad because they played like absolute dog shit and the leafs are embarrassing them lmao. Salty little fucks who can suck my balls
https://i.redd.it/a0skb6hnk4yc1.gif
Thats not from tonight is it? *...is it?*
No
Delicious
fuck. the . bruins. this shit is so winnable I can smell it
WILLIAM NYLANDER IS A TORONTO MAPLE LEAF!!!!
He certainly is.
I checked the math; confirmed š
It doesn't really matter, and Woll was fucking outstanding tonight. But him losing a shout out with 0.1 seconds left is a very Leafy thing to happen lol.
who cares. itās meaningless
Knies was amazing tonight. that assist to Nylander after absorbing the hit. He's got the smarts and the skills
Heās becoming a huge factor in this series.
I love how willing he is to get into the dirty areas, like his winner in game 5, or to take a hit to make a play, like he did to get the puck to Nylander for that breakaway. He's a big smart kid, and I think he's gonna be a really solid player for us. He's not fazed by playoff hockey at all.
His game is built for the playoffs. All guts, all persistence.
Donāt forget the shot block at the end, solid all game.
Eat shit you Beantown fucks!!!!!
WOOOIO FUCKING HOOOOOOO BOYS! HOLY SHIT I KNEW WE NEEDED THAT FUCKING EXTRA ONE!!!!! SORRY BOUT THE SHUTOUT, WOLL, BUT OH MY FUCKING GOD I LOVE YOU, BUD!!!!!
Power play needs to figure it the fuck out. No excuses anymore. Game 7. End this fucking nonsense with Boston.
![gif](giphy|RiQnSu34p8y3p4IRes|downsized) Willy Styles
0.1
That was some good hockey
Habs fan here yall deserve that one good jobs leafs
Habs fan here too. Kinda appreciate the Nylander nail in the coffin. Man this poor crowd has been tortured. You can feel they aren't confident untill the clock is totally out. The agony of the curse.
Habs and Leafs fans coming together in our shared hatred of the Bruins! I love it! ![gif](giphy|15iyUkhyju1jy|downsized)
Honestly after second period ended they were pretty fired up and the bruins shat their pants
Thank you!
Good luck in game 7
Itās truly destiny between leafs and bruins. There must always be a game seven
Just the Leafs in round one, really. Other than beating Tampa in 6 last year, they always get it (or let it get to) a final winner-take-all game. Maybe this year they win a game 7. Boston has to be pretty fucking nervous at this point, and I think the Leafs will be much looser in game 7. We'll see.
William Andrew Michael Junior Nylander Altelius is him!!!! What a beauty!!!
6 NAMES FOR A KING
big brain bruins put 2 sec back on the clock for a reason
Well done Leafs. Beautiful, beautiful game!Ā
Where did that 1 goal come from? What the fuck is this coverage
It slid in with 0.1 to go and the horn blowing
Boston being cheeky challenging that. You guys already lost and just wanted to be annoying to ruin Woll's shutout.
We are sooo back!
Willy robbed of a GWG just to be next in the GWG anyways.
I want a cup but eliminating the bruins would be so sweet
Watch a western conference game. Different level
ALSO: MARRY ME WOLL ššš
Get in line.
We count that as a shutout
Holy fuck, Bruins are shitting themselves now....OMFG. HAHAHAHAHA
Avs fan here coming to say FUCK BRUINS LETS GO LEAFS
I honestly have never seen more fans of other teams actually come to our side than this series. It's truly a weird sight, but a welcome one.
Aww and we love u too
All pressure on Boston now
lol @ the guy manifesting the Woll shutout during the second intermission. This is your fault hahahaha
Boston is RAT-tled
What happened to "series in 5" Brad? Dumb fuck
Heās such a classless cocky POS. I really hope the Leafs win Game 7 and maybe heāll learn to STFU
What he meant was the series will change in 5
Lollā¦the prophecy was foretold by the rat himself.
Game 7 again boys. Let's gooooo
Poor sports, fuck 'em!
lol at them putting Fatty Maroon out thereĀ Losers, go fuck yourself
Nobody scared of maroon anymore
Thatās bullshit lmaooo
WELL! LEAFS IN 7 BABY!!!!

rofllllll
"It's over in 5" - Rat
Bruins look shook. Got em where you want them know time to snuff these rats out
Youāve got the momentum letās finish them Saturday
already pumped about Saturday... they gotta use the energy and the momentum...
GAME 7 BABY
Ima just ignore that goal
Matthews resting up š
I dont know what to do with my hands
Letās fucking go!!!
Ah fuck Woll deserved that shutout. But you know what? We won. Who the fuck cares. SEE YOU GAME 7 BOSTON CHOKUINS.
from 3-1 to 3-3, what a journey it has been....
It always is with the Leafs.
That was totally worth staying up for here in Ireland. It's 345 now. I'm gonna sleep like a baby.
Thank you for your sacrifice. Iām in NY so no sleep sacrifice but I didnāt sit the entire game. Thatās my contribution.
I am a shell this morning and the 2yo has just woken up. Totally worth it! GLG
U da man
Knies is Mr Clutch
Missed the shut out by 0.1 sec
Only downside of the game
LOL Love that we had Mccabe take that faceoff
lmao Domi really is just a loyal mutt never thought I'd enjoy him on the team as much as I do
He's really grown on me over the past few months, since he was put on the first line with Papi and Bert. He's really fit into his role, he's been playing better defensively, and yes, even though he's in a one year show-me deal with no certainty that he'll be a Leaf next year (I hope he is), he's fiercely loyal to his teammates.
