      but it's awesome that he called it! The day before the series kicks off Steve goes through the B's lineup, see's Beecher's name and says "I don't know who this is so I guess he'll be scoring the first goal for the Bruins." and it comes true! That's amazing really.

      THAT set the tone for the game. Suddenly, the Leafs had to watch out for the less-obvious names along with Pasta and Marchand and the rest. Whereas, the Bruins only had to focus on guarding the Leafs’ top scorers.

      Amazes me still how many love Tie Domi. As a Leafs fan, yes I appreciated the job he did but I’ll never forgive him for 2001. Plays the best game of his career as a Leaf and then flushes it when he decides to smoke Neidermayer at the end of game 5. Leafs were one win away from the ECF vs Pittsburgh (a series the Leafs would’ve easily been the favourite)
      Jersey looked like a team ripe for the picking until Domi lit a fire under them with his stupid hit. Jersey woke up, easily won the next two games and dummied Pittsburgh in the ECF to play for the Cup.

    I’ve watched the Lightning for a long time. Stamkos has always been one of the hardest working guys on the ice. He was never a PPG player in the playoffs. But he was always part of some of the biggest moments in games. When he takes a slap shot from big Z to the face in 2011 and CAME BACK to finish the game after having his face deconstructed and put back together. In 2020 he came back for one game played two shifts less than 5 minutes and got the FIRST goal of the game. The bench was electric after that, we won the game 5-2 and then the series. Stamkos proved he’s that guy several times leading up to the Bolts’ cup wins. I haven’t see these moments from Matthews, Marner or Tavares.

      I personally never understood it when teams try to match the playstyle of the opponent. Like Boston is a genuine gritty tough team. Toronto isn't but why are you trying to match it instead of working around that/ working to your strenghts. Sure in playoffs you have to crank up a bit of the intensity but either you are gritty or you just aren't. Like skill wise Toronto probably could run circles around the Bruins but they just don't. Hell Bruins don't even have a 1C. And while their D and Goalies are very good the offence (in theory) is lacking and shouldn't be such a big problem for the leafs like it was in this game.

    Neutral fan here. I agree with Steve the leafs didn’t play a terrible hockey game. They were competitive at 5v5 at least the first two periods and they shit the bed on some chances that they definitely should’ve scored.
    But the thing about snot or grit definitely rings true as someone who didn’t watch the leafs that much in regular season and basing my take on just this game. The leafs’ idea of grit seems to be to just take a bunch of penalties which makes you lose the game instantly because, shocker, playoff teams have good power plays.
    Playing with grit is about fighting to turn pucks over and giving good chances and space to your scorers, and that’s really not what the leafs were doing this game.
    Now for a little tangent, Reaves to me is a perfect example of the kind of player that maintains the image of playing with grit but who doesn’t really bring any of those benefits to his team when you look at how he actually plays. But that’s just my subjective opinion as a hater.

    • @plushie946
      @plushie946 Před měsícem +3

      He started the season playing terrible but he had a very good run where his offense was passable, his backcheck was solid and he could lay people out. In this game he landed some solid hits, but that first turnover was terrible. I'm not that worried about him though. He just fills a slot. If he isn't doing anything bad, he's serving his purpose just by being hard to move. If he steps up and actually makes some nice plays he's doing more than is required of him.

    • @OkayRocket30660
      @OkayRocket30660 Před měsícem +1

      Those are some solid points. But I would also say that the Leafs have been terrible on the forecheck and were God-awful in clearing their own zone. The Bruins have all day to move the puck up the ice, and once in the Leafs zone, they have far too much space to set up and tee off. The best Leafs chances were when they were pressuring the Bruins in the Bruins own zone.

    • @Deadpool19917
      @Deadpool19917 Před měsícem +1

      Reaves created 4 different scoring chances by laying hits and causing turnovers. Reaves is literally why the only goal happened at all. The problem is and I have said this all year Keefe doesn't know how to use a true 4th line. That line should be on the ice when pasta is out there or once he got hot Debrusk. The goal of a 4th line is to either shutdown the top line OR make their night physically miserable. But for some reason keefe goes "oh let's do skill vs skill.... that always works."

      It's because the leafs generated 4.5 xG on one powerplay. You of course can't score more than 1 goal on a single 2-minute powerplay and their models pay 0 mind to the timing or sequence of shot attempts so you end up with extremely goofy results like this where you can be expected to score 4.5 goals in one sequence when the actual true expected value should be less than 1.

  • @b0nez_
    @b0nez_ Před měsícem +11

    I watched the first period of the game, with no dog in the race (go caps) and my impression was that the leafs were "overheating" with the physicality. They didn't throw hits to make a play, they threw hits to throw hits. And that cost them when they allowed the 2 on 1 leading to the first goal. Hope they can do better in the second game and be physical when needed and not just for the sake of it.
