But thats the thing you cant

The moment you choose Woll game 2 Sammy's done. You basically indirectly told him sorry we cant trust yah were going with the kid, that shoots the confidence away. So going back to him in a do or die is a NTU

Thats why u give him a chance game 2 to show he can do it like last year. He fumbles again you go with Woll and thats it

And if Woll struggles game 3 and if he plays game 4 that to there gonna be a lot of questions going into the summer.

FLA a few years ago highlighted this

Bob to Dreidger to Knight


Ok fair point but I really don’t want to risk going down 2-0, I’d still say Woll

Leafs went 2 down in the first meetup in BOS but still went to 7 against them with Anderson in net

Going down 2-0 does not dictate a series we have seen teams dominate the first two then fall apart

One I remember TBL vs. NYR

NYR dominated game 1 and 2 people had TBL out

TBL then went on to win the series

The only team I’m worried about on my bracket is the lightning: vasi did play super well, but the panthers just have so many weapons. I wouldn’t change my pick, it was super close, but feeling like that will doom me. Not worried about Toronto, they had a good showing, scoreboard/puckluck from game 1 was a tad deceptive, now have a rested nylander.

Hopefully whatever reason nylander was out has no lingering effects. The internet thinks it was disciplinary which is the best possible reason, he’ll come back all pissed off. High ankle strain worst possible reason lol.

I’m not panicking about the leafs in general lol. I’m just wondering if Woll might be the better option

After watching the last 2 meetups with BOS and similar outcomes I dont think so

Team just needs to play smarter and not give up those chances or take **** penalties

Will benefit the team as a whole. As we dont want another parade to box lul

As when that happens we cant use the boyz

Why are you so hesitant to play Woll lol, if he hasn’t got injured he’s probably be the one starting game 1

I dont really think so as what would have been the guarantee the play would have continued. If Sammy came up and had that strong of play the record would kind of speak for the choice as 8-5 was Woll's record before the injury. It may have been more unpredictable but more likely it would have been entirely based on the final 2 games or whoever was more hot to end.

As said before if you go to Woll and he fumbles game 2 Leafs are ****ED

Cause then you cant go back to Sammy if things go wrong. Remember FLA

From Bob to Dreidger to Knight

If your going to Woll your either doing it game 3 if Sammy fumbles or Sammy's hurt. Its something we dont want to rush into as if we pull the trigger early we could hurt ourselves more

Look at last year Leafs lost 7-3. Did Keefe play Woll game 2 no and what happened a 7-2 win for Sammy

The leash cannot be so short your choking the dog lul

Basically in short I don't want Keefe to use one of his bullets to early

Leafs have 3

1. Swap the goalie

2. Swap the Forwards

3. Swap the Dpairings

Nylander coming back does not mean using a bullet just a heads up

Helly hasn't been elite in 6 postseasons. The Avs actually have a chance even with Sievorgiev.

Allegedly Reilly Smith never wanted to go to Pittsburgh (he likely wanted to stay in Vegas though with a small NTC, he didn't have much control). I'd expect him to be moved this offseason or bought out

He has a partial no trade. I think he'd welcome a trade to SLC.

Its tough to know

Does he want to go back to Vegas, does he want to play for his hometown, or a team close

Each of the teams I listed will be wanting a winger with OTT being close to the hometown

But who knows maybe he wants to just go back to VGK

That's not going to happen, unless he waits a year (and even then probably not)

Funniest thing I saw on twitter and its so true

Matthews is untouchable for criticism even after a bad playoff game

Marner will be judged like the Cree's Ronan this playoffs

Nylander...Is hurt

Only one game but requote end of series

Seems like the worst fit for them considering all the guys available. Woodcroft would've worked miracles with that group

could probably get traded back to VGK if he wanted, not sure what rules are on 50% retention

Honestly what I was thinking and should have put in HM

We basically be watching a baseball trade

Trade a guy away than go get him back

Are the NY Islanders going to be the first away team to win? They're currently up 2-0 at the end of the 1st.
