So, here comes some fun. I think the Toronto/Canadian media is going to put Babcock on the hot seat.

Mind you, that’s not the same as him actually being on the hot seat, but the piranhas have been circling.

I imagine Andersen is due some press savagery for the performance tonight.

This has a 2013 feel for me. Beat the Leafs in Game 7, go on to face a Torts coached team, and in the wings could be a planet player(Crosby then, Ovi now) that they've struggled against beforehand. Let's hope it ends better.

This TOR coach pulls goalies way earlier than anyone I have ever seen. I always thought rule of thumb was 1 minute per goal give or take. 3 minutes is crazy

Roy broke that logic when he was at Colorado. And with a team offence like Toronto’s, I don’t think an early pull is a bad idea. And it wasn’t obscenely early, just ~a minute by that metric.

Tight game, difference between these two teams clearly came down to the choppy ice in Boston.

Tuukka with enormous testes, they are gonna go far if lines 3-4 can keep this going. Weird that Wagner's been the odd man out but whatever works

Onto Columbus

You haven’t been paying attention to the previously known Patrick Roy coaching era of the Colorado Avs.

If it helps Kane, Toews and Keith aren’t at the end of the tunnel.

I may jerk off to that save Tuukka made about 3 minutes into the 3rd period later on. Thought you might want to know.

The third period was a fucking clinic.

Tuukka was incredible.

We're (I'm) onto Columbus!!!!!
Outside of the rush whee Chara almost kicked a goal in, the second half of the third reminded me a lot of the 2011 ECF after the B's went up 1-0. Toronto couldn't do anything at all. Clinic is exactly right.
