The one guy a lot of people owe an apology to is Morgan Rielly

People were throwing him under the bus and saying it was a mistake to extend him and that this playoffs he would be a problem

Well that playoff performance was a nice prove em wrong story and yes he was a problem for Tampa

6GP 3 goals 5 assists +8

Of those 3 goals 1 was a GWG and the other tied the game 4-4

Also JT ended the Islanders and Leafs playoff win droughts what a guy.

Dubas also just saved his job with that win


I think it’s possible, maybe even likely that he could go still, and a situation where everybody wins.

Right now it seems to me the MLSE board is the ultimate decision maker as it pertains to Toronto’s roster and lineup. I think that’s a fine structure for them. The Leafs represent substantially more influence and value due to Rogers, Toronto itself, the Marlins, etc, It would be borderline crazy to give any single person substantial authority.

Those floated Pittsburgh rumors all suggested full control.

It could also be in Toronto’s best interest to allow Dubas to essentially take a promotion in Pittsburgh, and promote from within, keep the great things Dubas has built, and add their own pile of great things. If Toronto continues to use the board based authority structure it may not make sense to keep any single gm in the position for substantial time, which is a valid strategy if they focus on internal development.

Dubas probs gonna sign an extension tomorrow as why does he want to go to a senior home of a team. They giving him control as there is nothing to control everyones locked in already

His boyz be at MLSE, he won them a round, and his SOO buddy Keefe did his job. MLSE board had a right to wait but now u get that man signed

I defend the Leafs often. I defend Dubas often. But, all they did tonight was finish off an inferior opponent and avoid another massive letdown and choke. It's about time they won a playoff series with the prolific talent they have. But, it's gonna take a lot more wins to make this a successful postseason, imo. Saving Dubas' job doesn't amount to success. The absence of another massive failure does not equate to success.

As much as I like the memes and jokes about the Leafs losing in the first round every year, I am super happy for them and their fans, and I can't wait to watch Steve Dangle's reaction!

So EDM vs. VGK

Should be interesting

Man whoever's goaltending doesnt allow 3 or more goals probs wins

But hey Eichel and Stone vs. McDavid and Draisaitl gonna be fun

As man Pacific is just a goalie nightmare and goal scorers dream

Eichel vs. McDavid is probs gonna be the biggest playoff matchup since Ovie vs. Crosby

As to who wins I have 0 idea. As while u dont bet against McDavid its the playoffs and playoffs are just so random

still have no idea why he was so pissed about that, no clue why he would have an issue with a guy getting to get a taste of the NHL, and plus the Hawks had no problem with the Oilers putting Matt Berlin in back in January

I mean, Tampa has 2 cups and 3 finals appearances in the past 3 years, I think they’re doing just fine, they might need to retool some pieces around though
