I agree with you but with Swayman saying after game 1, “it’s a we thing” referring to the goaltending, I feel like he was giving us a hint that it’s a straight rotation. Maybe game 6 or 7 is a coach’s decision. Just guessing on my part. |

Swayman numbers against the Leafs this year: Nov 2, 2023 - WIN - GA: 2 SV PCT: .943 March 4, 2024 - WIN - GA: 1 SV PCT: .970 March 7, 2024 - WIN - GA: 1 SV PCT: .966 Game 1 - WIN - GA: 1 SV PCT: .972 Game 3 - WIN - GA: 2 SV PCT: .933 If they go back to Ullmark, I am handing in my fan card. We are trying to win the fucking Stanley Cup here. We aren't playing tiddlywinks. DUMMY UP Monty and Sweeney! |

They’re saying now that Nylander is suffering from migraines. This is from Elliott Friedman, not sure who’s his unnamed source.

Leafs radio broadcaster Joe Bowen ripping on the Suits at the Leaf games .
The idea of going
To any sporting event
To support the home team is to
Be PRO ACTIVE!!!
Give the team energy when they need it Not sitting down waiting
To be REACTIVE. The players can’t say it but I will tonight’s crowd was VERY DISAPPOINTING

The players can’t say it but I will tonight’s crowd was VERY DISAPPOINTING I heard a lot of "Go Leafs Go" chanting, Towel waving, cheering on hits, saves all when Loafs did stuff. Saw A lot of Loaf's jersey's inside & out when camera would show crowds. What does he expect the fans to do jump on the ice??? I don't get any of the Cd media unless someone here post or the NHL.com does. I'd like to hear Keefe's pressor where I read he was whining about Marchy getting away W/ stuff he felt they should've gotten MORE PP's!! |

Most of the Joe regular Guy fans are priced out of going to games in Toronto , the ones they show outside the building show a ton more energy. |

Leaf Nation getting way too much attention for my liking!! Every team has a different fan base and every one reacts differently..Not every fan base is as dedicated as Boston Bruin fans are to their team..Yes they'll let the Bruins know when they play lousy and rightfully so but overall, Boston fan base are simply the best of any sports team..

The one game I went to in Toronto years ago was really weird and goes exactly to the point you made. The people behind us were Red Wings fans and were really just in town on a business trip and got the tickets from their boss or something. I'd say probably half of the lower bowl remained empty for the entire first half of the game. Then "fans" kind of rolled into those seats sometime during the 2nd period but didn't look all that interested to be there... Of course the Leafs lost in OT to the Devils so it was a fantastic night haha! |

When we went to Bruins vs Loafs game there were I bet %50 Bruin jersey's the whole rink, me 1 of them. Still need to get to Habs & wings games to complete seeing Bruins play in other teams rinks of the Original 6. Only loss from our 1st 3 was in Chicago 2015 I believe it was that year.

I'd love to catch a Bruins game in Detroit and Montreal! Pretty cool to see them play all the Original Six for sure! Nylander is skating today again so I imagine we see him play tomorrow. Might give that PP a bit of a different look. I really hope we can continue to win the special teams battle because the talking heads at TSN are having a complete meltdown over how it's been going so far (which is very entertaining...haha!). |

Will almost be surprised if Sway does play with the thought process being what it is. Put the body on Nylander early and often.

I'll say the same thing I said after Game 1..I'll be shocked if Swayman is between the pipe Saturday..They have a plan in place and I think they're gonna rotate until either Sway or Ully have a bad game..Nothing against Ullmark but Bruins do seem to play with more confidence with Swayman in OR maybe Leafs play better against Ullmark I dunno..But I do think Monty goes back with Ullmark no matter what we think!! Sway is the Way!! |

It is unbelievable to me but it really does look like they decided before the series what they were going to do with the goaltending and they are not deviating from it at all! |

Which may ultimately cost Monty his job if things really go to shit. I honestly think you go with the hot hand and quick fucking about. Continue to start Swayman and if he faulters, then switch. |

Just with the way the officiating seemed to go last game (obvious missed calls and then the really inopportune call against Tavares right at the end of the game) it really seems the fix might be in and this is destined to go seven games. Looking at the scheduling too...they put 3 games on Saturday (HNIC, Leafs vs. Bruins). The league will want nothing more than this to go the distance. I am fully expecting to see a Bruins parade to the penalty box like we have never seen before in Game 4. The ticky tac crap calls will be at an all time high haha. |

Continue to start Swayman and if he faulters, then switch. 100% agree with you but I think Bruins management realizes that both goalies are used to rotating the past 2 seasons and they fear if they go with either Swayman or Ullmark any other way,they wont be able to handle what they're not used too..They fear Swayman cant handle playing every game hence the rotation..I would play Sway until he gives me a reason not to play him..Obviously thats the very last thing the Leafs want so give them what they want makes no sense either..FFS, listen to the fan base for once..I feel our odds of winning game 4 is with Swayman in net and HOW can you think any other way, he's been great Ully was good..But it's the way Leafs play, they played way better in game 2..Very last thing you want is for Swayman to get out of his groove.. |

I still say that Monty totally fucked up when he went W/Ully after that gwg he gave up in the corner in Gm 5. I said that he should NOT start Ully in Gm & he did which basically cost the series! Stay W/what's working unlike what he did last post season!!! |

Officiating scares Me more than the Leafs , we just need to stay disciplined and diligent with lines changing and clearing the puck . |

Swayman has a 79-33 career record, Thats a WOWsr for sure!! This is what I'm thinking as for goaltender tonight..I think the inital plan was for goalies to alternate each game BUT with extra day off next TWO games, Just maybe Swayman plays next 2 games..Simple as this:: Florida is up 3-0 on Tampa so highly possible they get a long rest UNLESS Bruins can win next 2 and win series in 5..Best chance of doing that SHOULD be by playing Swayman next 2 games, he'll have another extra days rest after tonight so if tonight goes as we wish, Swayman can finish them off back in Boston if he continues this dominance AND thats what Toronto DO NOT WANT!!! GO BRUINS ALWAYS!! |

Hope you're right! |

Hope you're right! Brother I wanna be right too, NYI was my upset series for round one as much as I liked Canes chances but I pick a team every playoff as an upset, Canes up 3-0 so Im losing that one..BUT Bruins are only concern I have, 1st rd being my ALL IN MOVE..WIN RD1 WIN SC, my motto for this playoff series..Totally MY prediction that dont carry alot of weight I know, damn I'm barely 150lb what you expect?? Win tonight, go up 3-1 and no way in hell do they lose like they did last season, Marshy will never let that happen..WE got this boys!!! |
