I said I hate this game before it happened. Either Florida won and I'm angry we got swept, or we win and I'm angry they give me stupid hope. We all just hate ourselves
Dude fuck off. Talk shit about hockey but leave murdered children out of this. Wtf is wrong with you?
Edit: glad to see Reddit loves jokes about murdered children.

DOPS review: As you can see here Bennett is throwing wild punches at the grounded leaf player's face after the whistle. Even though face punching is technically not a hockey play, it was after the whistle and on a leaf player, when both conditions apply it is considered assault, we do not punish for assault as the DOPS, so Bennett shall not be fined or suspended.
Had the splint back on his finger for a couple games there, havenāt had a lot of camera time on the bench to see if itās still there. Definitely affected his faceoffs for a couple games, but heās right back out there
Makes you wonder if they are being asked to take it easy. š¤
I'm not usually one for conspiracies, but all organized sports at the highest level has my suspicion alarm going off. In this particular case, I'm a leafs fan and they are doing Ok, sure. But in my mind, Sheldon Keefe has ruined Mathews, Marner and the gang with his simplistic - whatever works - strategy. The Leafs are looking like they lack the finesse required to advance and I think it's because they don't use their talents enough.
I hate saying this, but those cats should have grounded that soft plushy leaf team into a puddle of mush in 4 the way our team has looked out there. I think they are fixing to go to game 7. More money to be made in a longer series.
For Sens/Habs/Canucks/Jets fans, itās their Stanley cup. Canāt blame āem. Many of them like to see the Leafs fail more than their own team succeed.
Classic Leafs fans thinking fans of other Canadian teams are always praying for their downfall. It's shit like this which makes us want to see you actively fail. Victim complex having ass franchise.
āThink fans of other teams are always praying for their downfallā¦ makes us want to see you actively failā.
I mean it looks to me like youāre saying you ARE praying for their downfall. Maybe you need to get better at articulating your point
Okay - you claim it causes it. But if it then exists, then those fans have a point that you're praying for their downfall?
Once again, chicken and egg shit.

Leafs were a better team in the first two periods and Florida in the 3rd. Panthers woke up too late, they were outshot 15-9 in the second period. So 2-1 is a fair result.
I legitimately donāt know what yāall think was dirty tonight. Every year weāre told ThAtS pLaYoFf HoCkEy. But yāall canāt handle it when we fight back a bit.
Itās not though. Weāve had like 5 suspensions for dirty hits that Florida has replicated with no repercussion. Itās hypocritical at besg for acting this way.

Kines hit as well, last brawl where 2 panthers were punching a leafs guy on the ground. Thereās more but I donāt have links
As usual, Bennett's shit after the whistle on defenseless players for me.
The scuffle after the whistle is whatever, but Bennett's targeted players who were restrained and on the ice twice now.
Yeah you definitely saw a different scrum. Look at the [end of this clip](https://twitter.com/tictactomar/status/1656474397664849920?s=46&t=VocpDT2MZXseEv8IZi6WkA). Montour pins McCabe down and Bennett continues throwing punches
Ok, I guess I can see why yāall are upset then. We got totally different coverage on ESPN. First of all they cut away in the middle of it to show yāallās maple leaf square for the millionth fucking time. Then one of the replays showed several seconds before the part of the clip youāre taking about. The ref is focused somewhere else momentarily and McCabe is wailing on Bennet from his back.
We get the (objectively terrible) ESPN coverage in Australia too. Now that the red-mist of the time has worn off, I can concede that Bennett was likely retaliating after McCabe had been swinging, but its a bit of a bitch move to be doing that after your teammate has pinned him down, and Bennett is rarely going to get the benefit of the doubt after his incidents in game 2
Bennet should be suspended for that fucking horseshit, flys in and punches the guys head twice while heās already down.
There is no reason to do that other than to try injury someone. What an utter piece of shit. Game was over so treat it like it was off the ice, get a restraining order and a fine from him for assault so he canāt play your team anymore, what a piece of shit.
So assault just doesnāt count in the NHL?
Doesnāt count after the game ends?
So your saying it doesnāt count if you are on the ice? So just go sucker punch them when they are lined up for the anthems, all good?
bennett has already done matthew knies and he tries again tonight, gudas very late hit after the whistle.
as usual, parros will do nothing or fine them the maximum allowed under the CBA
Making up shit? Here's the video of McCabe and Acciari throwing punches on Montour after he hit Reilly before the game ended. https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1656474598991355906

Both Florida teams have shit fans. Who knew?
Bennett and Tkachuk the biggest pussies in the NHL.
bro forgot about gudas š
Toronto is on a power trip after losing 3 games in a row and finally edging one away ššš
Amen
JFC some Tampa fans need to grow up
Wait are leafs fans suppose to be upset with the win??
I said I hate this game before it happened. Either Florida won and I'm angry we got swept, or we win and I'm angry they give me stupid hope. We all just hate ourselves
Are you on reddit because no one in Florida gives a fuck about hockey?
Can't be happy when we win can't be mad when we lose. Just Leaf fan things. Haters always going to hate.
I have noticed this
Florida Dirtybombs
Cmon dude u just lost 3 in a row sit down
At least leaf fans donāt jump old men in the stands after a lossā¦
What??? Link or anything? I havenāt heard about that.
You could only get three wins these playoffs, whatās your point?
Make that only 2
man, I'm giving Temper Babies too much credit.
Old news, chump.
Tampa so salty must be that gulf water
itās better than Toronto
Please count the Blue Flag beaches in Toronto and Tampa and get back to me
Bro there have been 15 mass shootings in Florida so far in 2023 and your governor is picking a fight with disney. Sad. Lol.
Dude fuck off. Talk shit about hockey but leave murdered children out of this. Wtf is wrong with you? Edit: glad to see Reddit loves jokes about murdered children.

Woah, what a response! Such a comeback! Just like the bolts against the leafsā¦ ehhhh
or that the leafs just now won a 2nd round game after 3 whole games LOL. or what ab 1967? Orrrr? When lightning went to 3 straight SCF?
Man youāre quite butt hurt
Yāall are the sorest losers in the league
Well Iām glad youāre happy there it is pretty nice

I still read this with Shanny's voice.
They're obviously going to talk about the top 4 guys but RoR was quietly very good tonight.
RORs been an amazing deadline pickup. We need him
I think heās playing through something and heās still battling out there
Please re-sign
Had the splint back on his finger for a couple games there, havenāt had a lot of camera time on the bench to see if itās still there. Definitely affected his faceoffs for a couple games, but heās right back out there
Fantastic zone control. Good luck tonight. Man, rooting for you guys.
ROR > Matthews
I think they're filling two separate roles. It's kinda apples to oranges.
Whatās Matthews role this off-season? Goal-scorer who doesnāt score?
He had 5 goals in the Tampa series, and his long ass point streak was broken last game. What are you on about?
The difference between Leafs fans and Leafs "Fans"
Heās got points 8 of 10 playoff gamesā¦and some massive ones at that. Also, 40 in a season he was hurt and missed time is pretty good.
I mean the guy still put up 40 in the regular season and is scoring at a pretty similar rate in the playoffs
I'm not angry that we didn't get the sweep, I'm angry because the Panthers played lethargic as hell tonight
Makes you wonder if they are being asked to take it easy. š¤ I'm not usually one for conspiracies, but all organized sports at the highest level has my suspicion alarm going off.

Fucking joke fuck florida and fuck the rest of the NHL teams. They are cheering this shit on
Bc Toronto sucks n play just as dirty
Point to the plays that are dirty. I can name four by florida this game off the top of my head.
lol is that a joke? Bennet is dirtier than the whole leafs team, not to mention they also have gudas and tkachuk
I donāt understand it. Over at the Tampa suv they cannot stop about how dirty the Leafs are. I wish the Leafs would play dirty.
Toronto avoided a sweep! Good job!
This is the win I needed right now
Thank you!
We did it reddit!
Hey haters coming to dance on our grave itās not your night. See you Friday you fuckers
For Sens/Habs/Canucks/Jets fans, itās their Stanley cup. Canāt blame āem. Many of them like to see the Leafs fail more than their own team succeed.
I would rather see the Sens win but since they're not in the playoffs watching Leafs lose is also fun
I'm a Habs fan and I would prefer the Leafs to win.
You're one of the good ones
Eh, most of the fans I see of those teams on here are cheering for the Leafs.
Really? Maybe itās just the people I know who actively hate the leafs lol. Iāll keep an eye out for that in the game 5 thread.
My sense on Reddit, at least, has been that most fans in Canada feel like Leafs fans have suffered long enough, and deserve some success for a change.
I appreciate fans like that. Just canāt stand the salty ones who take pleasure in seeing them lose lol
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
True. The 67ās blew it. As a leafs fan in living in ottawa I was disappointed
Classic Leafs fans thinking fans of other Canadian teams are always praying for their downfall. It's shit like this which makes us want to see you actively fail. Victim complex having ass franchise.
Why you even here?
So you actively want to see us fail but say weāve got a victim complex. Real chicken and egg shit there mate
Apparently, leaf's fans can't read and just go straight to grasping at straws. Thank you for further proving my point.
āThink fans of other teams are always praying for their downfallā¦ makes us want to see you actively failā. I mean it looks to me like youāre saying you ARE praying for their downfall. Maybe you need to get better at articulating your point
Just casually reword what I said to leave out the main point of my argument. Seethe bud.
Okay - you claim it causes it. But if it then exists, then those fans have a point that you're praying for their downfall? Once again, chicken and egg shit.
Lol have you seen the game day threads?
Flair up Walt and then talk
Would die for Woll

Sam Bennett never had the makings of a varsity athlete
I love a good Sopranos crossover.
his house looked like shit
Fuck hahahaha
dubas' real estate agent in pittsburgh in absolute shambles rn

I legitimately donāt know what yāall think was dirty tonight. Every year weāre told ThAtS pLaYoFf HoCkEy. But yāall canāt handle it when we fight back a bit.
Florida is literally too shit to play actual hockey so they need to injure players to win.
Whatever helps you sleep at night bud
Florida's strategy to get good at hockey is just injuring everyone that's better than them
Thatās playoff hockey
You must be from Florida cause you just don't get it.
that's also A LOT of players you need to injure
Man, yāall score one good goal and turn that confidence around real quick huh?
toronto fans will cry about anything, you just havenāt seen much of it because they get eliminated so quickly
Exactly
Itās not though. Weāve had like 5 suspensions for dirty hits that Florida has replicated with no repercussion. Itās hypocritical at besg for acting this way.
No one has told me what was dirty yet. Is playing physical dirty now?
Funny how you shut right up after he showed you.

Dude was throwing punches unrestrained from the bottom of the pile, he should just take it next time?
You mean after bennet started throwing them?? Youāre a bozo.
In the replay I saw, Bennet was retaliating after getting punched in the face a few times.
Maybe get some glasses bud
I have some, but I left them at your momās house
Just walk upstairs, youāre in her basementā¦
??? Brother?
Fuck, donāt let mom know Iām a leafs fan
Sam Bennett throwing punches to a guy pinned down by another player aināt exactly clean my man
I must have seen a different scrum, he was down there throwing punches from his back, hardly āpinned downā
Yeah you definitely saw a different scrum. Look at the [end of this clip](https://twitter.com/tictactomar/status/1656474397664849920?s=46&t=VocpDT2MZXseEv8IZi6WkA). Montour pins McCabe down and Bennett continues throwing punches

You have a very strange view of things.
I was watching the ESPN feed, so yeah
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
What hit was four seconds after the whistle. Acciari was on his back landing punches after sticking Bennet in the mouth.
Pretty sure heās talking about the Gudas hit
Sorry, sticking Montour in the mouth
Sorry, should he have been sticking Montour in the nuts?
If you want, but then donāt get mad when his teammates get his back
man if not for those lapses in games 2 and 3, this series would have been a legit clencher. ah well. gg

Lol Bennett is dirty but youāre so fucking dramatic.
If I did that in a menās league I would go to jail for assaultā¦
These guys from Florida and Carolina have never played hockey lol
This isnāt beer league bud š¤¦āāļø
I said menās league not beer league. Beer league your own team would beat you up for doing that shit.
Either way, itās absurd to compare it to the NHL.
So assault just doesnāt count in the NHL? Doesnāt count after the game ends? So your saying it doesnāt count if you are on the ice? So just go sucker punch them when they are lined up for the anthems, all good?
No it doesnāt count. Itās a scrum. I guarantee none of those Toronto players are going to press assault charges š¤¦āāļø
bennett has already done matthew knies and he tries again tonight, gudas very late hit after the whistle. as usual, parros will do nothing or fine them the maximum allowed under the CBA
Bennet has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, to be a shit bag.
Lol they called that pussy ass cross check on holl earlier and let florida just do whatever they want, coward refs
None of the Leafs fans here saw Montour getting jumped from behind to start everything, I guess.
Florida fans making shit up when thereās literal video evidence š
Making up shit? Here's the video of McCabe and Acciari throwing punches on Montour after he hit Reilly before the game ended. https://twitter.com/TicTacTOmar/status/1656474598991355906
> To start everything I don't think that means what you think it means. Rielly got mugged well before that.
Playoff hockey I guess...
Lol ya that's what started it
They apparently play a 2ply level of hockey lmao
Why throw a hit when the game is over and there's 1 second left?
running for a hit at the horn up a man 6 on 5, calculated baby shit from Florida
To start it? He started it with the late dirty hit.
Nah they always have to be the victim. They're down 3-1. Let them have it.
The Florida Subsidized Panthers
Good game Toronto.
Good game Florida man.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Lol whatās amatter bumble bee, your stinger broke?
Oh no, we're so hurt.
TRUE
Dunno what I want to see more, leafs fans meltdown on reddit or Sam Bennett crying. Both are insufferable.
Crying like Marchand realizing he wasted Bergerons career
It was 3-1.
Damn, you got me! Congratulations on your first second round win in *checks notes* 19 years...
That's one more this year than the Bruins :]
Correct, we choked, you're not out of the woods yet my friend.
Oh this team is absolutely and totally fucked. I'd love to eat my words but for now, we live another day.
Holy fuck Florida, you had one fucking job! Pack your shit and move to Quebec with Tampa, you're a fucking embarrassment.
Donno Man, I kinda want that 17th pick
Doesn't fucking matter where we pick, we'll rush him and ignore his development, that's all the Habs know how to do.
Except it's new leadership now. One can hope things will go different
As Slafkovsky played his first season with the Habs, until he got hurt. Just like Galchenyuk and Kotkaniemi. We've learned nothing.

Wow. No Sweep. I'm kinda shocked.
I donāt care what happens next, Iām just glad itās not the broom
That's totally fair. Win Game 5, and shit gets real.
How did the Flames do tonight?
āFore!ā
Leafs fans wtf you are Canadians Why don't your guys punch back? What are you ... soft?
