R1G1: Leafs @ Bruins - May 1st, 7:00pm - CBC, TSN 1050

[Corn Flake]

How about:  dress Frattin-McClement-Orr as the official 4th line, but try to surprise Boston by replacing Orr with Kessel at key moments?

BOSTON COACH: "Hm, Kessel line coming to the bench, McClement hopping over, guess we can put out the 3rd D-men... hey, Kessel turned and went back out! Wait, guys... aarrrrgh, too late!! TOO LATE!!" (Kessel scores 3 goals at once) "NOOOOOO" (brain explodes) (Bruins' spirit crushed) (Seguin falls down well)

BRILLIANT plan! LOL

especially the last part.  Make it a 'douche well' and it's gold Jerry, gold.

I'm on team non-nutman, no way Leafs win this series.

The Bruins ain't so bad.
Hey, I'm not afraid anymore. I said, I'm not afraid anymore! Do you hear me? I'm not afraid more!

Let's hope he can put together an emotional playoff video in 2 months.

Frazer McLaren must beat the crap out of Chara. He is 4 inches shorter and 25 pounds lighter, but that?s as close as you can get to Chara.

 

[sampson]

It really doesn't matter which team we play. As long as this team shows up each game and plays the way they are capable of playing, we can win. This team can beat any team in the league, and we all know that. However, if the team can't find a way to play good hockey (which has been lacking lately), this first round of playoff hockey in nine years isn't going to last long.

GO LEAFS GO!

 

[Corn Flake]

Leafs need to study Habs vs B's games.. somehow that shrimp team beat Boston 3 of 4 games this year.  For a small team they somehow have little trouble with Boston.

Wow, that Frattin goal against Buffalo seems like an eternity ago.  Maybe he can turn it around at some point in the playoffs.

Rocky: Ah come on, Adrian, it's true. I was nobody. But that don't matter either, you know? 'Cause I was thinkin', it really don't matter if I lose this fight. It really don't matter if this guy opens my head, either. 'Cause all I wanna do is go the distance. Nobody's ever gone the distance with Creed, and if I can go that distance, you see, and that bell rings and I'm still standin', I'm gonna know for the first time in my life, see, that I weren't just another bum from the neighborhood.

EDIT: I posted this earlier from my phone, what I wanted to add is that this is how I feel about this series. If we can hurt them, take them at least seven, I think it will go a long way to regaining the respectability that has been missing for far too long.

Even as a playoff team, we are still struggling for respectability, maybe, just maybe, if we take them the distance, they'll know we ain't no bum bottom feeding team anymore.

I also imagine Phil Kessel taking them by the throat for at least a few games.

I dare to dream...

Screw it, bring on the Pooh-Bears.  It's time to go Gerussi on the Brunos.

Kessel, let's face it, you're playing for your next contract here.  Dominate the Bruins, and you're going to be paid like a superstar.  Go invisible, well, yeah, you're still going to be paid like a superstar anyway, but with a whole lot more questions...  Show the world the awesomeness of Phil!  You hate that smug little Seguin?  Yeah, me too.  Shut his clown face up.  Do it!

Lupul, just show us everything you've shown us this year.  Except for the injuries;  don't show those, please.

Kadri...  Hat-tricks aren't just for the regular season.  Let Rask be looking out for Phil and then BOOM! three goals on one shot.  Or 3 shots, whatever.  I want the NASDAQ to be renamed the NAZKAD in your honour when the dust settles from this series.

Reimer, I swear, you're such a nice guy, you make Mr. Rogers look like a complete ***hole.  But I'm going to need you to bear down and become a bigger dick than Mr. Rogers in this series and stuff every shot RIGHT BACK IN THEIR FACES!  Not as an actual rebound, though, just metaphorically.  For too long, it's been "boo-hoo, we kept Pogge instead of Rask, boo-hoo!"  I need to you to 100% Poggify Rask.  I want to be able to say "Pogge, Rask, Raycroft, whatever man, we got REIMER!  YEAH!!"  The.  Real.  Deal.

Screw this "Oh, no, it's the Bruins!  Nooooo!!"  Screw that, and screw them.  BEAT THEM!!

This post is massively awesome in its awesomality.

I withdraw my previous prediction of Bruins in 6.  I think we should declare that no one can post a prediction of a Boston victory.  Yes, the nutmanification of this thread is what's needed.

I now say Leafs in 7 OT.  In the series-winning rush Kessel spears Seguin before burying it top shelf over a helpless, hapless Rask.  Then punches Chara in the knee during the shake-line.

He certainly brought some intensity to that post. Gotta like it. If they can somehow pull off an upset over the Bruins, it certainly would be pretty special under the circumstances, and everybody loves the underdog!!

Leafs in 7.

Complete random and useless observation, but has there been a time when the Leafs' playoff opponent and Jays' opponent on the same night were of the same city?

Alright. So there are tickets available??? The next step is to put my home on the market and if I'm lucky I should be able to catch at least three or four live playoff games this year!!!!!
