We now return you to Tampa taking more penalties than their opponent.

Tampa in 6. Florida struggled against a far less talented Washington team. They won't be able to get past the Bolts.

The wounds are still fresh for this one. Panthers kept up their come from behind ways in round 1, but that was against Washington who were expected to fold and did. Tampa will be a tougher task. Haven't really heard anything more about Point's injury. I am a bit biased in this one given that Tampa just beat the Leafs. This could go either way, but I think I am going to go with Florida in 7.

T Bay in 6. Vasy gets back to normal.

Doesn't mean a lot but the Leafs move up a spot in the draft if Tampa wins.  Also I don't have a problem if they three-peat now that we are out.   Every win from them makes me feel more empowered to have the Leafs run it back.

5 times in the last seven years they got to at least the conference finals.   They won the cup twice, lost in the finals once and lost two Game 7s.   The two Game 7 they lost to Pittsburgh and Washington who won the Cup.   What an insane run they have been on.

And then after teams wipe us in the first round and go on to the Cup finals, they wash out next season and draft first overall.

Leafs were the 2nd best team in the East this season, change my mind.

No reason to. Without a doubt they were.
