Last one before the break.  Let's win this one mmmKay?

[RedLeaf]

I'd be over the moon if they could pull off a win tonight. Go Leafs!!

I thought Boston was coming off 1 loss but they've actually lost 3 straight games now. They went 0-2-1 against Tampa, Florida, and Carolina. First time all season they've lost consecutive games.

edit: Boston lost 3 straight games to end the month but they still finished with the 2nd most points in January behind... the Seattle Kraken??

Would be nice to get a win and at least hold a chance to still get the division.  Even a 9 point lead (with Boston having a game in hand) seems like a lot of ground to try and make up but 13 probably seals it.  That last minute Tavares turnover really hurt in the last game.

Division race is already over, but Boston at 38-7-5 you have to figure they'll slow down in the last 30 games or so.  Leafs might bring the deficit to single digits but I can't see them passing Boston even if they do beat them the final 2 times they meet (including tonight)

People booing during the anthems.  Get rid of them.

The anthems?  I am OK with that.

[Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate]

Letting Pastrnak shoot from there is something they need to think about not doing.

Too many high-danger chances being ceded to the Bruins.
