Well FA was right...Leafs get kicked out. Just a matter of time he stated.
Bruins were the better team. Out chanced the Leafs by a large margin in the series. Can't expect Anderson to make circus save after circus save ...
Leafs dif give them a scare though.
They were ahead by a goal in the 3rd but they just got into a defensive mode.
They should of checked hard & keep the puck on the Boston side of the centre line.
Leafs need some good blue liners.
No shame though to lose to the Bruins. They are a very good team.

EDIT IN: go to page 1 & read Dave & FA posts about this game. They just posted seconds ago.
My post brought tread to page 2.

Condolences to the Leaf advisor for another disappointing finish. There will be no parade this year.

Y'all are welcome to come to Nashville for our parade

Y'all are welcome to come to Nashville for our parade

OK my memory has been jogged. Your the Nashville fan who talked about the record noise levels in the Predators home rink. Well Bible Thumper came out of retirement hoping to get that Cup for Nashville ,for his wife Carrie Underwood & himself. Think many here on this forum will be cheering on the Jets as they are the only Canadian team left. Both teams are so evenly matched vis all areas. Goaltending defense & offence. Saying that it could be finished in 4 to 7 games. Just never know the hockey bounces or how human beings respond to the pressure. All it takes is a few hidden injuries or a few players losing their  confedience. A few weak links. Ask Leaf fans about a D man. Guy gave up the puck in his end often by being out worked or by a bad clearing pass which led to Boston goals.
Jets & Preds both have a good blue collar effort. Think it will be a hard hitting game. If a team gets up by a few goals in a game it will force the behind team to get less physical & try to get goals.
All the best to both teams. Let's see if the Nashville fans can set new noise levels.

Knights leading the Sharks 5-0 in game 1 of their series.

Knights leading the Sharks 5-0 in game 1 of their series.

Got busy doing stuff & was going to post last night but then fell asleep.
Ya FA as it turned out 7-0 as you know. What a blow out. Sharks outshot the Knights in the first period but Fleury was sharp the entire game. Knight players entered the Shark zone with their skating & stick handling skill. They did the same against the Kings. They are looking good.
Pens win over Caps. Holby was playing so great stopping tons of Pens shots in periods 1 & 2.
Then in the 3rd Washington got up 2-0 so it looked like it was lights out for the Pens.
Boom !!!! Like a explosion & egg on the face 3 goals by Pittsburg!!!! Win 3-2. That has to hurt & Washington was in their home rink  "to boot".  Greedy Pens want another Cup Ha!!!

He's in the Witness Protection Program. His Maple Leaf hat is replaced by a Canuck sweater and hat.

Jets take game over Nashville.
Looked easy.
Nashville is the classic case of skating around fast but never finding the puck. Like they go go go sweat sweat sweat but where's the results?
TNA team better put their thinking caps on before they lace up their skates.
Sharks yesterday looked like a veteran team that had too many days off so they got lazy & need a prime up game to relearn their skills. They should play better on Sat.
Or is the Vegas team just much better than them thus the 7-0 score?
Dave & FA are letting Chris know that the Leafs are on vacation after round 1. No Cup for the Leafs just a exploding cigar & kick in the rear end.
Wonder if in my time the Canucks will lift the Cup? 63 yrs young now. 63 yrs old & older than that person & that person but younger than that person.

Interesting that the Leaf advisor has not posted in this thread. It's as if he knew his Leafs were doomed

Canucks drafting 7th in the June draft.

Canucks drafting 7th in the June draft.

Just got in at 5 pm so thanks for info.
Maybe they will give their 7th pick & a man off the roster & try for a lower pick?
( think they can do that )
But hey sometimes picks mean crap. A 20th pick or later sometimes becomes a star player in the NHL & high picks do squat.
Boston hammers Tampa. Tampa off their game as they were thinking about being licked by Marchant's tongue I guess. New rule " Licking a player is a 10 minute penalty."

Vegas & Sharks went in 2nd OT.
Vegas goes into sin bin 2x ...
What ref? After 1st penalty to Vegas the Sharks tripped Vegas player but no call?
But Vegas gets a 2nd penalty
Come on. Non calls to 2 against Vegas.
Anyways Vegas had 5 wins in a row so were due to lost a game. Now they can reset & come out blazing & win game 3. 
Neale had so many good chances but Jones the stopper made the saves.

Only watched a few minutes between Pens & Caps. Caps win & tie up the series.
Jets & Preds had a very very exciting playoff game.
Preds win in 2nd OT.
Before the winning goal Rennie got his glove on the puck & it deflected to the corner. It was a full slap shot & labelled.
The Nashville Predator team has so much heart & really skate hard. If you see a big & small dog being walked side by side,the big dog takes 2-3 steps while the little dog is taking 4-6 steps just to keep up. It just seems to me the Nashville team has to work twice as hard just to match the pace of the Jets.
But give Nashville credit because they live by "if there's a will there's a way".
What ever team wins this series they will have to work for it.
Honestly I hope the Predators beat the Jets & kick them out. Jets are a good team but they have players that only Jets fans will love or the player's mother.
Nashville had very likeable players. Boo Jets Keep it up Nashville.

Tampa beats Boston. Series tied 1-1.   Marchant on a break gets his hand hooked & he lost control of the puck. No penalty or penalty shot ?
Vegas & Sharks OT again. Vegas gets the winner on a super play & super placed shot. High corner shot on the blocker side. Both teams had chances on OT & it was just a matter of time what shot would go in.
Both teams played hard & it was a very close well played exciting game.
Sharks could of won this game as they played well.
Great series.
Pens vs Caps & Nashville vs Winnipeg Jets tomorrow. Those match ups are very close good & exciting hockey. 
Sharks vs Knights & Jets vs Predators in my books are the best series right now to watch.
