He is wrong...will b over tonight...and they much prefer losing in BOSTON....loll...just saying.
They don’t have any pride, neither leadership
Dallas still well alive....they are my fav. in that round.....finalement DUCHENE----SEGUIN---HINZ se réveillent.....come on JOE and JAMIE....JOHNSTON is quite a surprise.....more more guys.
On one side you have MARCHAND as captain and on the other TAVARES....trouvez l'erreur/find the error....lolllll.....that says all...
Did Marner get stripped of his captaincy? I thought he was a captain of the Leafs? I personally would strip him, you can't have entitled prima donnas as your captains. Should be the hardest working, longest tenured veteran who is a team player and not an entitled child.
4 teams facing elimination tonight, who will survive if any?
My "bet" would be Jets and Preds, not a single chance for the 2 others.

While Mathews has battled a "mystery illness" that has been worsened by being in the playoffs and William Nylander has missed 3 games due to migraine headaches, word comes today that Joel Embiid missed shoot around today due to migraines, and is questionable for basketball game 5 against the Knicks, which Embiid's 76ers trail 3-1. Embiid is under enormous pressure and stress as the team went 14-27 without him (not good) and needed him to score 50 points to win the only game they have taken from the Knicks.
The point is that the playoffs, whether hockey or basketball, are highly stressful for these athletes. And some athletes handle the stress better than others. Nylander and Matthews maybe not so well. Embiid I feel sorry for, because he is coming off a serious knee injury, has struggled at times physically, and is playing in pain. He manned up and scored 50 in game 3, only to be eclipsed in game 4 by Jalen Brunson's brilliant 47 point performance. While listening to the Knicks fans in Philly outnumbering the Philly fans, which is hurtful as well as stressful.
Will Matthews and Nylander rise for the occasion in Boston tonight as Brunson has for the Knicks? It's win or go home and play golf tonight, against a goalie who has the Leafs number. What will we see?

Which of these losses gets your vote for most brutal loss of the playoffs so far? I picked 3 very worthy and totally brutal losses:
Islanders blow 3-0 lead and lose to Canes 5-3; 1 shot on goal by Isles in final 33 minutes of game
Toronto 3-1 home loss to Bruins in game 4; Maple Leafs stars bicker like children
Predators blow 3-1 lead at home in final 2 minutes, then quickly lose in OT 4-3 to Vancouver
Which is the most brutal loss of them all?

Brad Marchand has 8 points in 4 games, which is 2 more points than Mathews, Marner, Nylander and Tavares COMBINED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
IMHO PREDS defeat was the most brutal ....and they will pay high price....
Is Matthews being held out because he tested positive for Covid? BTW Embiid is playing through his migraines tonight for Philly! Gutting it out!
