[@johnnyfry2]

It's hard to win a Cup. The Tavares injury early didn't help, the Muzzin injury before game seven was more damaging. With all the hoopla around Carey price being the greatest goalie of our generation, he has exactly zero Stanley Cups. Think about that. Binnington has a Cup, Fleury has several to enjoy and another Finals for an expansion. Price....zero Cups. For all the heat that Toronto is going to take, much of it deserved, they went for it and at least play a game that is built for a Finals. If not for the old, tired "Playoff Rules", the Habs couldn't slow down, interference, grab guys from behind (wth was that non-call?) etc. The game is boring, I don't care who you are a fan of. No way someone calls that "entertaining". No wonder the NBA, NFL and MLB have such a broader global following.

[@fishleaf18]

8 unanswered goals, 0 goals in the 1st and 2nd of games 5, 6, and 7. Outhit by 90 hits in the series. Great series by Nylander, Campbell and Spezza. Their top 4 defensemen were pretty good.

[@steveball9696]

I agree with you play evaluation. I would also rate Alexander Kerfoot, Alex Galchenyuk & Zach Bogosian as good/ok. I know Bogosian was on ice for a lot of goals against, but he had to play with the leaf's 6&7th best D-men, so I think that dragged him down.

I live a little ways north of Montreal. No matter how good it feels right now, the city of Toronto, and Leafs fans, deserves better. The Canadiens adjusted and changed their play during the series. Kudos to the coaching staff and veterans. The Leafs should have adjusted in their turn and didn't. I think a conclusion must be drawn.

[@MG-im8ku]

You want to know why the Canadiens adjusted? Because the fans forced them too. Montreal fans will turn on the habs if they don't live up to their expectations. Something Leaf fans need to start doing. Selling out every game for a losing team, and selling some of the most merchandise in the league isn't helping the cause for Toronto. Fans need to stop supporting a losing team, and you will see the organization will turn things around to give them something to cheer for.

The money they make should be for Stanley cup winners.

I don't mind losing, I'm a Leafs fan, I'm used to it Habs are too, they have the second longest drought of the Original Six teams. Losing to such a boring, uninspiring team like the Habs. That's not bitterness, I watched them all year, they were even less exciting than the Flames games. When Leafs lose to Boston, they lose to creativity and end to end battles and beauty. When they lose to the Habs they lose to 1995 hockey. It's the type of game that is ensured by "playoffs rules" and a prime reason Price has great playoff numbers (all defense, no offense) and zero Cups It's all about winning a round, maybe two for the Habs, which is an odd way for an Original Six team to approach the sport. They themselves, in a 30 year drought. Certain Leafs won't ever win a Cup, of that I am certain, but imagine sharing that same mark on your resume with the great Carey Price...
