GO LEAFS GO.

I still don't hear Matthews being mentioned at all

realistically, you're not going to win in the playoffs, and certainly four games in a row

when your franchise player is simply not showing up when it counts

and this is like the seventh year in a row that he hasn't shown up

He's been very good in defence but Bobrowsky has been really hard to beat.

the knife would still be twisting in my guts right now

I'm happy to be rid of that, honestly

I'm enjoying the sunshine, no Leafs rage whatsoever

It won't stop raining here. It's lovely and sunny between the showers and I've been in shorts for the last two weeks but we've got a hundred people arriving for my juggling convention in a week and we are concerned about cars churning up the beautiful buttercup meadow.

40 goal pace

it's not Conn Smythe Trophy territory

I'm just happy we weren't swept.

It was a good end to end game last night and Woll really stepped up.

He made about 25-30 saves and only let one in.

While the Leafs have talented individual players, relying solely on individual talent can only take a team so far. Without teamwork, failure is inevitable if some stars stop producing. 

I am not even going to watch the rest of the series, I don't want to hear the excuses, if a team like Las Vegas can create a team and make it to the final, and here, this city breathes hocket and nothing is done, then mediocrity we will get.

Do not think the series can be won. Too late. 

I don't care anymore

I've moved on with my life

They will not?

Dougie, I learned the traditions of the Leafs, faster than other traditions in this country. 

The key is to not set expectations too high, and then disappointments are not too bad. ?

the Leafs were passed down to me by my father & grandfather before him

I grew up six blocks from Maple Leaf Gardens

I used to get tickers off the scalpers in the greys

I used to stand at the back entrance of the Gardens to get autographs

I used to run across to Gardoonies on Carlton for beers in between periods

I have been on parade on the red carpet for the Maple Leafs

I've drank pints with Frank Mahovlic & Daryl Sittler

but that Toronto is long ago and far away

I've moved on to the countryside

I'm retired

How about you @Iceni warrior, what are the percentages of success? What is your opinion? 

Only 4 teams have come back to win from 3-0 down in over 200 attempts so by my maths that's less than a 2% chance or 50 to 1 chance of failure.

Which will make it all the sweeter if they do it.

Fancy being a Leafs fan and missing them pull off a series win from 3-0 down. You'd never forgive yourself.

Thank you for your service to the Leafs.

You've earned your retirement.
