Laughton getting mauled by Bennett long after the whistle

momentum to start the second...1st line hemmed in their own zone again

Definitely not out of it but they certainly haven't been in it so far either.

Leafs are taking a lot of low shots on Bobrosvsky now. Both OT breakaways in Game 3...Nylanders breakaway this game. Bob doesn't give up those low goals.

split Matthews and Marner.......they have been dog shit

Panthers interfering with every single dump in meaning the Leafs have no speed going after the puck. It's not going to get called. Find a new approach to entering the zone

Have the Leafs won a single puck battle?

Everything is one and done for the Leafs in the offensive zone. The Panthers just getting to do whatever they want in the Leafs zone. Complete no-show by Matthews/Marner so far

miserable effort on home ice. Matthews with a weak clearing attempt up the ice. Panthers are smothering the Leafs

Cool so the Domi high stick in Game 4 is a penalty but the high stick on Domi in Game 5 isn't one

Benoit with an unnecessary pinch leafs to a bit of a mess in the defensive zone and a few chances for the Panthers

It would be funny if they called the Panthers for skating across the ice to hit Tanev 5 seconds after he passes the puck

Holmberg is easily the first one to come out for me. If you want to move Paccioretty down the lineup put Laughton on the 2nd line when you want a better defensive role. I'd take Jarnkrok out second but I will concede that I think Calle gets flak for not producing but if we are just swapping...

Just adding on to the Cowan notes. His playoff PPG (1.593) is 44th all time in OHL playoff scoring. The only players born in the 2000s on the list ahead of him are Wyatt Johnston (41 points in 25 GP) and Logan Morrison (56 points in 34 GP). If we expand out to all three CHL leagues Jacques...

Two more assists. Now has 37 points and moves past Stan Drulia for 2nd in all time OHL playoff scoring

I mean he's been off the whole year. I posted something earlier in the year but every year of his career Matthews fairly significantly outperforms his expected goal totals because of his shot deception. This year he was below it. It's a massive outlier on his career. His skating speed is...

This. Reaves of last year I would dress. He was skating reasonably well after his extended time off in the middle of the year. The Reaves of this year was unplayable. He wasn't hitting guys. He couldn't catch anyone to hit them and the only way he does is if the team is hemmed in their own...

I mean the penalties were penalties. Maybe the Knies one isn't a playoff call (certainly not as the 3rd in a row) and you could maybe argue the McMann call given that they ignored Marchand launching into Tanev earlier. But they also had very little push back in the 2nd and 3rd periods. That...

Someone sent me a clip of Steve Dangle talking about the possibility of an illness going through the dressing room. OEL skipped practice today due to illness. Murray wasn't on the bench for Game 3...maybe a flu bug played a role in their Game 4 effort?

Pretty solid chance they win this series and go to the Memorial Cup so probably no. Memorial Cup runs May 22-June 1st. And as much as I like Cowan as a prospect, I'd Robertson isn't playing, Cowan wouldn't....although if the Leafs go really deep it would be cool to see him on the B team
