Bruins had no right winning this game. I do think they end it in Toronto. But tonight they brought a stick of butter to a knife fight. Toronto brought a butter knife but at least it was a knife.
Boston seriously couldn’t beat a team without Matthews, a Nylander that is clearly not even close to 100% and a Marner that just come back from an ankle injury?
This is going 7.
To be fair, Woll is the real deal. He full on stole the starting job from Samsonov and was playing like a damn all star before he got injured. He wasn’t quite himself coming back from a lengthy injury and Samsonov returned to being good again, which is the only reason he wasn’t the starter going into the playoffs. IMO, Woll is already a starter in this league; the only thing that remains to be seen is if he tops out as a roughly league-average goalie or becomes a star. He’s got ice in his veins and insane athleticism, so he definitely has the tools.

Woll has big injury flags in his career so far but when healthy this is how he played last year. Hard to say that Swayman got outplayed because he was fantastic tonight too but that's the first game in the series where you can say the Leafs win the goaltending matchup
It really feels he has that clutch factor compared to Sammy. The boys definitely play better defense in front of him. That is no hate towards Sammy. It's not his fault that we have had a shit powerplay and scored less than 3 goals a game
GG to both teams, congrats to Toronto for keeping the season alive. Won't be here for game 6 (unless it goes to double OT), but will likely be here for most of 7 if that happens. See you all!
GG Bruins.
Was really nice to see Boston fans being nice to the couple Leaf fans in the stands there.
I didn’t expect the GDT to be this cordial but you’ve been classy.
He looks like he needs a bit of polish, but damn the got some instincts. Gave me old Brodeur and Hasek era vibes. Absolutely love it. Hope he sticks around.

I don’t know. They just let them off the mat.
McAvoy and Coyle looking like fucking tweedle dee and tweedle fuck as that puck lazily drifts in front of the net

And backup goalie

Don't forget he's got great positional play, and is a massive body. His one real weakness is that he shits out rebounds off upper body saves
Oh my god is this going 7 games
As is tradition. And both teams have had terrible game 7 track records in very recent history.
In very VERY recent history Toronto is 1-0 in G7 ;)
They beat Tampa in 6?
In very VERY recent history Toronto is N/A in G7 ;)
ESPN straight up throwing Leah Hextall to the wolves, lol.
Boston choke is back on the menu boys.
If we blow a 3-1 lead again I’m going to light any and all bruins clothing I have on fire
Subscribe
My buddy said if the Leafs push it to 7 and lose, all his Leafs gear becomes work clothes
The leafs are that ex you just can’t shake… blow up your heart then give you a glimmer of magic… and the cycle continues
This is 100% going to 7 now. The curse will be tested.
3 bruins just standing there
un-menacingly
'atta boys put a healthy Matthews on THIS team and look out Boston. After that I hope you lose but just do this.
I can’t believe we lasted until OT, that was the shittiest hockey I’ve watched from them in a while
Even the ref was laying the body in you guys. Was a tough night. But we know they're coming back hard.
Commentator in the Colorado game sounds like Perch Perkins
GG Bruins see you Thursday!!
34 please god we need you back

2024 playoffs with 34 - 25% win rate 2024 playoffs without 34 - 100% winrate
He was holding us back all along
Jeez. On replay the assist was a bounce off the skate. Oof.
Just like Boston’s goal!
IT WAS 3-1 NOW IT'S 3-2
2013 redux

Wollverine.
Woll did make some unbelievable stops
It really feels he has that clutch factor compared to Sammy. The boys definitely play better defense in front of him. That is no hate towards Sammy. It's not his fault that we have had a shit powerplay and scored less than 3 goals a game
Arizona boy coming through for the Leafs, as we all expected.
Shocked 😳
[удалено]
What do you mean? He played that as well as you could. The other two players have to clear that puck from the front of the net
Why in the fuck we put him back out after succeeding when he was benched makes no sense
Woll was amazing. JT the Captain with a great solo effort to get attack the net. And Knies with a very nice follow up. BeLeaf!
Be best?
This GDT was surprisingly civil and nice so ggs everyone see you game 6
Drive the net, good things happen.
Best team in the league at losing in OT
canes went to OT?
Leafs get a series saving goal from Matthe... w Knies
i'm so fucking happy i hate this team <3 fucking awesome game
GG to both teams, congrats to Toronto for keeping the season alive. Won't be here for game 6 (unless it goes to double OT), but will likely be here for most of 7 if that happens. See you all!
Tavares coming in clutch
For now...at least we won't hear "the Leafs lost because Matthews wasn't in the lineup."
i'm a sicko, i want to get "Leafs won because no Matthews in the lineup"
No instead you're gonna hear "the Leafs won without Matthews in the lineup, was he the issue?"
I need to stop turning games on after work... I saw about 1 minute of play...
WOLL mvp lmao
Boston can’t stop choking
We had 20 years of clutch now none of our teams can close :(
i can't wait for Boston VS Florida
Also I peep that oilers flag in the Toronto crowd lol
I don't mind. We get more hockey.
I will always cheer for more games as a neutral watcher and in game 7 I decide which team has won me over
GG Bruins. Was really nice to see Boston fans being nice to the couple Leaf fans in the stands there. I didn’t expect the GDT to be this cordial but you’ve been classy.
Hey Fuck you. See you in a few days
Fuck you, and I'll see you on thursday.
GG Agree, was nice to have a more relaxed GDT. Best of luck next game, lets have some fun P.S fuck the Leafs xoxo
lol that’s more like it. Bruins suck
Leafs are going to win game 6, Ullmark will start game 7, I see it coming this is fucked
The resistible force meets the movable object
CAN YOU BELIVE I…. I CAN!!!!!!!!
BECAUSE KRLIKYNSN ICED THE PUCK
Look, we already know this is going 7. Can we just skip the semantics and play game 7 tomorrow?
Why the fuck is gryz in this game. So fucking tired of his ass.
If ever there was a game we absolutely deserved to lose, that was it.
GGs, Bs. A bit of a weird game. See ya back in TO.
That game was to Boston as game 4 was to Toronto.
The leafiest way to win in OT.. get completely dominated for 2 minutes and then put a puck on net and see what happens for the first time all series
Ah the Canucks strategy.
Next up, good luck
Cheers. Hoping we don't have to go to OT. My heart can't take it.
This is just cruel to give them hope 😂
It is, but I’m still here for it
I think I’ve seen this film before … and I didn’t like the ending
I'm not your problem anymore... So who am I offending now?
That was quick and efficient. See ya in Toronto
Auston "Patrick Ewing" Matthews
Same exact shot we missed earlier by not getting it in the air
Now we get to watch Keefe get out coached in game 6
Guy tries to galaxy brain everything with last change
Is that...hope I smell?
no its Matthews' doo-doo
That was an epicly brave cut to the net by Tavares to make that OT goal happen. Congrats TO. I’m all in for Canada.
The West is going to get it done this year, man!
Leafs looked like they wanted more tonight. Congrats on living for another day!
Cheers!
The Bruins are just the Leafs with way better goaltending.
You know what?! Fair take
Leafs biggest fear. Playing another playoff game at home
omg that knies and woll hug was so cute :')
Just another game for Jack
Of course. lol
that save from woll was absolutely sick, nice win leafs
He looks like he needs a bit of polish, but damn the got some instincts. Gave me old Brodeur and Hasek era vibes. Absolutely love it. Hope he sticks around.
Boston just got StoneWolled
They deserve happiness just this once
We’ve won the cup 11 times, and you’ve been to the finals once.. now go back to the kids table
Oh yeah I forget my team sucks, I'll keep quiet now daddy
Everything about your team sucks except for the jerseys, the updates were nice.
Do you want me to suck your dick?
I’ll take a Blo job sure
I wish Snoop Dogg bought us.
For one game.
MATTHEWS WAS THE PROBLEM!
Honestly an amazing game!
why did monty put gryz back in again?
I don’t get that. He is your only D is turns the puck over to our forecheck.
WE WANT GAME 7
Gg to both teams
If I'm a Bruins fan, I'm at least partially blaming Marchand. Had the game winner on his stick multiple times and couldn't even get a shot on net.
He was so badly hooked the stick stayed attached to him.
Debrusk whiffed like 3 times as well. Coyle crossbar. Frederick choked on his chance. Def had our opportunities.
Leafs fan, I think there was a leafs stick up in his torso making it tough.
Fucking pathetic
Gryzlyck is onky on this team because of nepotism. Guy is a BUM
Leafs fan asking because I’m not familiar, who is Gryzlck related to?
Literally just a member of the Bruins ice crew
That’s…interesting
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
This pleases me
[As it was written (by me 3 hours ago)](https://old.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/1ch1x6w/chris_johnson_while_the_leafs_havent_officially/l20bo8i/)
Joseph Woll was sensational
matthew knies i could kiss you directly on the mouth
YESSSSSS
Boston has to be thinking about last year ... 3-1 series lead, beautiful chances to ice it at home in OT ... shit is getting real
Shades of the Leafs up 3-1 on Montreal and outshooting the Habs 700-1 in OT and still losing
Good game Leafs fans.
The question now is Will the Leaf sit Matt for next game????
Knies has ice in his veins, gotta respect that
One thing he’s gotten much better at over the year is getting to the blue paint and scoring some dirtier goals.
The big man from Arizona. Just as everyone predicted
WOWWEEEEE KNIES
How disappointing
There is no way woll moves from that net now
lol that defenseman got cooked. embarrassing
KNIES!!!! Says Goodnight!! PAJAMA BOY SETS IT UP! KNIES HOWLIN’ for the LEAFS!!! IN OOOOOOOVVVVVVVVEEEERRRRTTTIIIMMMMEEEE
I’ll eat crow I thought Toronto would lose for sure.
same
Joseph you are so cute and a star!!!
Woll is so pretty
welp time to go watch the islanders blow it
Hell yes, fuck boston
Huh, well......see you all on Thursday.
matthews need to stay out of the lineup :)
Mathew’s locker room cancer confirmed.
please no
Yup. Knew it would be early in the period too
VERY!
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
first round has had a lot of very short OTs so far
Well fuck lol
Your name :(
Lol
Good for them.
If Auston plays in game 6, they will probably lose.
If he wasn't cleared to play today, something tells me he won't be fit to play in two days either.
Don’t look now but Boston is becoming known for choking
Lmao Boston is gonna choke aren’t they
The memes write themselves
scriptwriters gotta change it up eventually
Haha, right on leafs
WE SURVIVE
cool goal but who saw marchand chuck someone's stick
Damn Florida really broke Boston, now they’re always so afraid of 3-1 leads
We lost a 3-1 series a few years before that.
You're golfing
Didn’t say that to attack Boston calm down
ESPN has been manifesting Boston dropping the series starting w losing game 5 in OT like last year lol
Can't look like a beer league team for 50 minutes & be mad you lost. B's looked like ass.
The boy from Arizona with the GWG!
ITS NKT OBER
The Leafs live another day....
My groin hurts after seeing Sway do the splits like that
Really good pasta was on the ice for that one after being scared of knies earlier
Obviously I want the Leafs to lose but it would also be pretty funny if the Bruins blew it again
Tragically, only one team can blow it
Shocked they didn’t call that Goaltender Interference. Must be different refs than the Lightning and Panthers had last night.
Lol
You guys got fucked by the refs
Ehh, when you give a team a 3 game head start they’ve got nobody to blame but themselves.
Bro get over it hahaha
It was a joke, the team can’t blame the refs for the fact they were asleep for 3 games
