Is this the year TO finally makes it out of the 1st round? It used to be funny but now it's just sad I'm almost pitty cheering for them. Then I'm reminded

Could anyone imagine a more nauseating Final than Leafs v Oilers? 
 

The hockey would be entertaining. Their fans would be insufferable though.

I don't know why you are all saying 4,5,6 games. You know it is going to be a game 7 exit with Tavares getting injured in game 3 or 4. Then, they will use that as their excuse.

Yeah Toronto isn't actually bad in round one per se.  They're just really bad in game 7.  I'm sure they'll be up 3-2 and find some way to choke the last two games.

I know I’m in the minority, but I love Tampa. They have quietly built a powerhouse team the right way, and are reaping the rewards. Many are jealous, but for me it’s pure admiration.

 

Toronto, on the other hand, finally made some good long-term moves after years of screwing the pooch for decades, and have incessantly bragged about it since…despite not winning a single round! Their team is talented, and Tampa’s weaker than previous versions…but do I trust the Leafs not to choke? Nope.

Dynasty-Isles would muddle through stretches of reg season, then ramp it up come PO time. Especially after they'd already snagged a couple SC's in 80 & 81

 

Have to wonder if TBay is playing this game? After 3 Finals, not much incentive to fully invest in the Oct-Mar, long haul.

 

Also don't really trust the Laff 'tending. They need to get out front & try to win the series on sniper fire.

 

'Ning dynasty in 6

Based on regular season performance it's evident Tampa is fatigued. Three straight SCF's... They've basically played 4 seasons in 3 years.

 

If the Leafs can't do it this year I don't think they'll ever do it.

Toronto still does not have an NHL quality blueline and their goaltender is terrible. Tampa will absolutely steamroll them.  Lightning in 5.

Nope. You’re wishing King. Leafs will sweeperoo TBay. Then steamroll Boston. Next they will pound the Rangers. Then they will dominate the Soilers in the Final.
