Kuch is such a difference maker, he always puts up a good show. Every team needs a step up player like him. Let's see what he brings to the table this year.

OMG! The Vasilevskiy save on Liljegren! What a save!

Props to Leafs fans for keeping a great atmosphere even when down 5-1

Best of 5 now. I’ll never understand the people who thought this was over after game one

NOW i recognize the good old leafs.

Kuch, Hedman, Vasi they are ready to 3rd cup!

Kuuuch the Man ... 💥💥💥

Isn't it weird that the leafs added grinders to their team to not get walked over but then get screwed by them when they take stupid penalties.

Have you ever seen anything like TB power play?

Передачи и гол Кучерова - украшение игры 😊

I find it funny how Corey Perry lost to Tampa Bay two years in a row in the cup final. Now he’s on the team.

There was only ONE THING the Leafs needed to change from Game 1. They needed to play disciplined and stay out of the box. YOU HAD ONE JOB, TORONTO!!! ONE JOB!

Хэдман такую паузу выждал, конечно… подождал пока Кэмпбелл завалится. Топ-гол.

Sabres fan here.. i have not been following hockey as much as i once did.. the Leafs have not been this good offensively in at least the last 20 years i have been following the NHL. They need to step up on defense but they seem to have a very talented team

both goals mathews is doing a huge part, love watching the kid and his team effort

The leafs kept the puck in the lightning zone for most of period 1, but the lightning really started attacking back. Way better performance than Monday. But I have to admit, when there was the 6 on 4 in the last 3 minutes of the game, I was honestly slightly scared. It was an amazing game, both teams played some great hockey. Go Bolts! ⚡⚡⚡

THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR THE LAUGHS, LOL!

Is it just me or did Perry have the A in game one and not in game two? Am I wrong or thoughts?

i wanna see an oilers leafs game 7. each team would try to score on their own net

Toronto going to have it tough down in Tampa.

I knew it and here we go again well see you toronto have another nice summer off

I don't think there are enough advertisements on the boards.

Wooohooo Go Lighting!!!

Tampa losing 5-0 was better for them than losing a tight 3-2 game. It was a wake up call and they came out ready this time.

Let the unraveling begin!

This was better than the ESPN broadcast. The ESPN broadcasters sounded one step behind all game long.

Corey Perry is the Leafs worst enemy during the playoffs, remember last year

And here we go

Tampa hasnt lost a game 2 in the playoffs since they lost to the Blue Jackets.

You love to see it.

Василевский на 2 минуте просто чудо поймал ..... омг

Tampa 16 game win streak 😍😛😣

Рад за Тампу

Tampa took this from the leafs tbh leafs trying to draw Tampa into the fray and it’s not their game if Tampa plays their game they’ll win this series point blank period

I knew Tampa would comeback with fire. They aren’t Stanley Cups champs two years in a row for bs.

May the first round hex continue... YES.

So much blue and white.

Leafs fans game 1: Oh yes we are winning the Stanley Cup!! Canada’s most beloved team wins again right here on Leafsnet!! - Gary Game 2: …..oh no. 🥴 - Gary

Rooting for the leafs to stop the lightning from 3peating

And we are on the way up

Хэдман и Кучеров рулят. Несмотря на то что швед последний гол можно сказать что привёз. Считаю его лучшим левым защитником лиги, а Кучерова - лучшим правым крылом.

Lets go Tampa! CANADA'S team

Hedman is too good for the leafs

This has been going on the last 3 years.call it.

Muzzin was on the ice for 3 of the 5 goals. Simmonds killed the comeback momentum with a dumb penalty infact 2 dumb penalties that resulted in 2 goals against. The first one was just after the leafs scored and seemed to have a little positive energy going. Those 2 guys would be best to sit on the bench more.

The Lightning struck and the Maple Laffs folded like a Cheap Suit. Let's see what happens in Tampa. 🤔

Now that corey perry is on the bolts the playoffs is the extra treat with him scoring like he does

Ну вооот! Другое дело! Красавцы!

1st round, here we go, oh no, not again, waow.

I was at Game 1 and 2, crowd was more deflated, penalty after penalty and goals. 1 goal back and the momentum starts to swing at the end you could definitely feel it with the crowd

Кучеров и Поинт связка топ!!!

Going to be a long battle of the blue and white vs the white and blue

What was that sequence from leafs before the third bolts goal?

🍁 will have a hard time in Tampa and with the noise that the ⚡️ fan base generates.

Alright back to 'Blow Leafs Blow' again!

Way too many stupid penalties, you don’t take out personal vendettas in critical moments of games. Simmonds taking a dumbass cross checking call when we just scored to cut the lead in half killed the game

Такой хоккей нам нужен 👍👍👍

We got a series leafs have 2 win both games in Tampa but it was a great effort they seem like a totally different team we need they were in tuff will get em in Tampa back to back Blue n White 4 Life ❤️🍁 Migwech 🔥

Toronto is proper at 1st round

Tonight showed why it should be the last game Simmonds sees of this series. I get what he’s trying to do but tonight both pointless penalties ended up in our net and cost us. Yes the officials went back to normal being absolutely pathetic but regardless it didn’t help our PK gave them 3 powerplay goals. Free Spezza and if some guy who wears the captaincy would show up and actually do something would be great. Still a lot left in this series. We can do this we’re not backing down

Now Tampa only needs to win its home games.

is the first round a best of 5 series or best of 7??

Didn't watch the game, but it looks like TB was on a power play every other highlight.

Ништяк 😀 теперь домашние тампы 😏 кот какой то пока ненадежный 😏

Hope this series goes far... With a Toronto win. TB has won enough

Refs wanted to even up the series.

Comments are hilarious 😆. An obvious bounce back but valiant effort from the boys to stay as best as they could on Tampas heels. Leafs are gonna have to show out in the Sunshine State.

GG toronto it was a fun run

Leaf's are not going anywhere with this ROCKEE cOAcH and with this goalie they will never ever reach the 2nd round.

Наконец то Поинт забил

Вася тащит

Should go 7. I love it.

Футбольный пас-вброс в зону пяткой от 16 Марнера, который чуть позже привёл к голу, очень эффектное решение.

Ah yes good Tampa in 6.

Leaf fans were planing the parade route after game 1, but Tampa is a well oiled machine. I knew after game 1 where the leafs embarrassed and went tough on the lightning, that the bolts would be like a woken beast. Don’t poke the bear or this is what happens.

LET'S GO BOLTS!!!!

On Marner's goal, you could have timed his shot with a calendar

Lighting getting a win in Toronto is huge, now go win the next 2 on home ice.

It would have been a close or tied game if the Leafs didn't take those back-to-back penalties that allowed Tampa to go on the PP and score. Was a close game on even strength

720p is the Sportsnet standard for highlights? Get with the times, boys! geeeeeeeeeeze

Only Bangwagon Leafs fans would have thought that. Any REAL Leafs fan knows that they are the biggest CHOKE ARTISTS in the NHL!

Kuch and Vasilevsky

I know we all hate perry but that was a really good play by him and hedman

Вот это другое дело 🤗

Ну, как то так)! И большинство сыграли, и Кот надежно, но все равно себе обе шайбы "привезли"

We 3elieve

And it goes downhere for the leafs

To the cup

Dress Richard Simmonds to have a chance 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Кубрик Стэнли комментатор говорил что в этом сезоне у Тампы слабая реализация большинства ну вот могут значит так держать давай Тампа за 3ей чашкой!!!!!

Don’t mind if they keep alternating wins.

Leafs have too much money tied up front ,with that defence and goaltending you won’t bring home a cup !

Leafs took too many penalties wont be like this every game. Leafs to win in Tampa. Go Leafs!!!

Again Refs not Calling Tampas Interference away from the play.There called slew foot. and Cooper teaches his players to do this.This is 5 and a game interference.Call it.

Let the boys play. Playoff games shouldn’t be decided on who dives for more calls. If that’s the case, Tampa will be gifted another cup. First actual one though since 2004.

Tavares horrible both games, makes more then Draisaitl lol .......you can hate as much as you want on Drai but for 8.5 a year hes is a steal......

Lack of discipline is killing this team man. UGH.

I think Simmonds just earned his suit and tie for the rest of the series followed up by a ticket out of Torona :) Lol.

Вратарская линия решит эту серию

Matthews tipping the puck to Marner when he's on his belly, leading to a goal. I love how Marner turns and points to him to acknowledge the move at 3:27.
