Thee Official 2023-24 Playoffs Thread: Stop fucking crying bro, it’s not junior

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Jarnkrok made a good play to get to a puck in the corner first and send it to the front of the net, but whomever he was with (Knies?) didn’t stop and was already in the other corner

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Domi is such a piece of shit, how did he “bump” into Swayman during a TV timeout and not take a penalty?

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Leaves PP stoinks

[Grand Moff Larkin]

But positive

Nice pass by Marner

[trucuschenn]

great pass by Canada's most hated man, was holding my breath on Edmunson's insane pinch on that play

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Trent Frederic scores while everyone else is focused on Marchand and Bertuzzi douching it up

[Grand Moff Larkin]

McAvoy one of the low-key dirtier players in the league

SN panel just said that this play was "very close to a penalty"

[Grand Moff Larkin]

He got a stern warning and gosh darn it he will listen to it

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Marner doing a drop pass to two trailing Broon PKers, oof

[Grand Moff Larkin]

I thought Bertuzzi did a great redirect but nope, Broons ankle

[Grand Moff Larkin]

They truly savored that tie

[linseman]

whatta snipe by marchand

[Cacophony]

Damn what a tip by Kempe that was awesome

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Big names scoring for thee Goil

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Hyman sliding back into open space for that shot was real smart

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Keefe whining about the officiating... not a great look

"He gets calls," Keefe said of Marchand. "It's unbelievable, actually, how it goes. You've got to play through that stuff. I don't think there's another player in this series who gets away with taking out Bertuzzi's legs the way that he does. It's an art and he's elite at it."

Leaves had more PPs (5 to 3), couldn't do anything on them while the Broons scored on one of theirs (technically two, with the EN goal), and if you're going to gripe about missed calls, maybe don't spotlight a sequence in which Bertuzzi and Marchand were exchanging slashes / cross-checks / whatever and the refs let everything go. Matthews getting pulled down behind the Broons' goal was an actual missed call. Not saying the Broons don't get away with stuff, but so did Max Domi.

[practice]

sequences like that just cause the Leafs to unravel though. A clear penalty in the offensive zone, that caused possession to turn, was ignored because the Leafs just scored and you don't really call penalties against a team that's just been scored on, because it's the playoffs. and then Bertuzzi who is a fucking moron decided it was worth escalating this garbage with Marchand as play continued. my dad sent me the Marchand interview talking up the so-impressive new Leafs, so tough and playoff-built, actually you know what would really impress me is if they started chasing me around the ice trying to get in a fight while the play is still going, maybe taking runs at us with their elbows high when they get frustrated with an anemic PP

[Grand Moff Larkin]

Was Nylander on their top PP unit in the last few months? I feel like he was on the second unit in their games against the Wings.

[practice]

I think he's been on the top unit all year but I miss lots of games
