  1. To fellow Tampa Bay Lightning fans wondering why the referees ignored blatant Leaf penalties (that the fans were screaming about on two occasions)….while helping the Leafs tie it (powerplay) and win it (powerplay again). Rogers Media owns 37.5% of the Toronto Maple Leafs…and paid the NHL $5.2 Billion for television rights. This is why Brayden Point can get shoved into boards at high speed – while Toronto ends up on the powerplay (hey! there's that word again!). It also explains why a Florida television clip on YouTube gets flooded with comments by Leaf bots. They want to warp your sense of reality – and accept the unacceptable.

  2. That feeling you're feeling? It's called creeping dread. Us Leaf fans know it all too well. See you in Game 5, Tampa.

  3. As a leafs fan. Tampa is no easy team to beat. They play with such confidence and size and never give up. Leafs aren’t taking them lightly and not giving up. Goodluck next game, leafs will come out full steam at home game 5

  4. CBC/Sportsnet interviewed Hagel between the second and third periods, and (to paraphrase) he said that he just knew they would be ahead 4-1 and it would be easy sailing. Not the typical kind of answer from a hockey player, and one that came back to bite him, hard.

  5. 😂😂😂😂 you choked ?? Aren’t you guys the gods ? Hahahahah see ya Thursday “gods”

  6. Killorn looks completely different sitting down without his helmet on. Hardly recognize him.

  7. 1:39 amazing how the leafs can be dominated and still win, but when you look at the stats they were ahead in all of them, except faceoffs, which was tied. Hockey is a weird game.

  8. Cosch Keefe changing up the lines made a HUGE difference from mid 2nd throughout. Cooper couldn't adjust the matching.

  9. Man that was fun to watch one more game then you guys can put the gear away

  10. If Tampa tries to goon it up in game 5 they can book their tee times this weekend because the refs aren't having it anymore. They are picking one guy out of the pile now and it's usally a Tampa player. The Leafs will need to perform an excorcism and get it done Thursday night.

  11. Cooper said they didn’t sit back. Dude wtf are you talking about, you clearly say back and for the second straight game 😂

  12. Brandon Hagel at the second period intermission: “we are pretty much doing the same thing. I’m not surprised the score is 4-1 going into the third period. Last game we played good enough to win that game. We knew we had to step up our game a bit more and we did that, and the result is kinda going our way”

    Up 4-1 with 10:16 left in regulation🤣🤣🤣🤣💩

  13. I want the maple leafs to win a new Stanley Cup either this year or soon.. people might say my expectations are to high.. but seriously this team has the talent to win a championship.. and 1967 is way way to long ago we need a new championship..

  14. Does Vasilevskiy start game 5? Sounds like a shake up might be coming . Not much to lose at this point.

  15. I’m surprised Toronto won. The last two games Tampa Played way better. Big difference this time around is that Torontos Big players are earning their money.

  16. Legend has it Tampa is still parking the bus in the third. Absolutely shameful!!!!!!!

  17. TB sealed their doom by not bringing in talent when they paid a Kings ransome for jeannot, the Flyers would have traded Konecny for that price.

  18. 2:45 Cooper looks like he is trying not to cry. I think this TBL team peaked back in 2021 and now they're on the decline. I'm honestly beginning to wonder if we are witnessing the beginning of the end of the Jon Cooper era in Tampa, time will tell I suppose, no one can take away the fact that he has been the longest serving HC in the NHL, as well as many of his core players have been with him for over a decade. On the other hand, I think this may be the year that Toronto breaks the curse, at least as far as the first round curse, they may not get much deeper in the playoffs. Unless TBL manages to pull some miracle and win the next 3 games, this first round wall may finally be scaled by Toronto.

  19. Have no idea how the Leafs are up 3 to 1. Tampa by far is the better team. Leafs by far are the luckier team. Rather be lucky than good. Is Tampa good enough to win 3 in a row. Absolutely.

  20. Take Vassy's eyes away and the best goalie in the world won't stop the puck!

  21. I know the Lightning coach and players can't speak honestly but this year's team has not overcome the loss of forward Palat and d-man McDonagh with their superb defense play. There is your reality and the future is not gong to get better with the cap situation. Tampa's amazing 3 straight Stanley Cup appearances has come to an end. Most true fans saw this coming.
