Do you not agree? When Matthews got rag dolled by Chiarot, the Habs knew that to win the series they will have to push around the players on the Leafs. Leafs were intimidated by the Habs and couldn't close out the series
no, i clearly dont agree.
Matthews was laughing the entire time and basically had the puck on his stick 99.9% of the time when he was on the ice. The leafs dominated in possession and lost because Matthews wrist was at like 10% and he couldnt shoot well and tavares was hurt on top of Carey Price being possessed by the ghost of dominic Hasek.
The leafs were in the habs zone almost as much as Price was and basically controlled play the entire series. If price was 1% worse they'd have swept the Habs.
They were not remotely intimidated.
