luckylager Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Oh man. The leaf fan meltdowns would be epic. How would the media spin it? How could Babcock not get fired? Same with that irritating little dweeb in soccer mom glasses. I'm sure they'll make it in, but am really looking forward to them getting pumped in the first round.

riffraff Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 To be honey this thread alone makes me happy but I’ll be thrilled to see em exit round one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueDragon23 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Don’t think it will happen but man oh man if it does... the meltdowns and ensuing media frenzy will be legendary. Babcock to be fired? Nylander the new Eriksson contract? More Pajama pictures from Tavares? It be even sweeter if the Isles do well or eliminate them if the Laffs do make the postseason. Contenders? Psh, definitely Pretenders. I cannot wait to watch them implode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Very doubtful. I think getting swept in the first round and have a lousier draft pick is far more sweeter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baer. Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Yes they could. That's what "clinching" means. If they lose 5 or 6 in a row it's possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xbox Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 If Leafs lost all their games that would probably put them to 4th, which is an easier path for them. I'm not going to laugh until the losses are against Tampa Bay. Idk about you all but I'll never cheer for Boston and I think it's crazy some people here are. You know it's ok to not have to pick a team in every single matchup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 It's interesting to me..yest's GDT vs Nashville, I glanced at what Leafer-backers were blathering: "How many of our last 10 do we need to guarantee PO's? 3 or 4?" I'd imagine these apocalyptic nightmares are filtering thru to the overpaid stiffs. Pajama-boy has to justify the media slobbering over him. They were SOOO arrogant a few wks/months back on HFBoards. Any trade props between our two teams, they assessed our assets as spam, theirs' as prime rib. Then the Leivo-heist was consummated! :^) They were higher-ground, magnanimous, claiming Dubas was merely fulfilling a promise to JL..as their roster was spilling over with riches! Today's HFLeafer- glance reveals a little revisionist-delusion..."Yeah, we've got 40+ mill AAV wrapped up in 4 fwds. But those guys will be here for a long time. Dubas is playing the long-game, cos' everyone KNOWS this yr the East is an absolute beast, so we have to be patient." Even if they choke on it, them diehards will repackage their overpriced Sh*t sandwich. Should they crash out, that HFLeafer pg will deserve NYT's bestseller-acclaim, & be required summer reading.

Nuxfanabroad Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 Hogtown outshooting BuffSlugs 17-3 in only 12 mins! Carter Hutton standin' on his ear... JDT update: 1-0 BuffSlugs! Whooo!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted March 21, 2019 Author Share Posted March 21, 2019 WOW! Is Buffalo a lame club. 38 shots for Leafs, after 2 periods. They're bxb..Buff rested?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted March 21, 2019 Author Share Posted March 21, 2019 Should TO continue this level of play(their fwds have been very fast/good tonite) they'll not have to worry about making the dance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuck73_3 Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I hope they take 2nd place lose to the Bruins in the 1st round in 4 and get a lousy bust with their crappy draft pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 Would be sooo epic... Marner, Rielly & JT set all these incredible pt standards, but their D utterly collapse. Lose next 6 games & miss the dance! Would be movie material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureFilm Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 I could just imagine the reaction in TO if this happens. Toronto has done this every year. Starts off great and bottoms at the end of the year. Love how JT was signed and everyone was like they are the cup favs. They are not getting past Boston or TB.

I have to admit to being torn on this subject. Seeing the Leafs lose in the 1st round (likely to the Bruins) would be something to see for the Toronto fans/media reaction, but having them completely fall out of the playoffs also has a certain appeal. regards, G.

Nuxfanabroad Posted March 30, 2019 Author Share Posted March 30, 2019 Need the Leaves to blow 5 straight & Habs to win their last 4. They'd call it the Miracle of the Millenium! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd call it the Miracle of the Millenium! Unfortunately more than that has to happen as they’re two other teams between the Habs and Laffs. They also have to both play above 0.500 as well. More likely than the Habs winning 4 straights but still leaves (heh) the Laffs more options. They’re getting in. Course we’ll likely get the pleasure of seeing this again in the postseason (so all isn’t lost): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
