I hate to say it, but it is starting to look like a Tampa Bay - San Jose final.

^ If you'd told anyone 15 years ago that a California team and a Florida team would be playing hockey in June to decide the Stanley Cup, you'd have been tossed in the looney bin  . (Well, maybe not the CA part -- Gretzky was on the Kings at the time..)
Minor consolation for ABC is that San Jose might pull in the San Francisco market, but CBC would be dead in the water.
Anyway -- back to Montreal. A better game, but still not good enough. Too many defensive breakdowns, and those are lethal against this Lightning team, even with Theodore's heroics. Need to turn it around on home ice, stat, or this will be over quickly.
Definitely looking like all three Canadian squads are up against it; Calgary squeaked out one win but they can't continue to be outshot & outplayed to the extent they are and hope to win that series. Toronto may be too banged-up to put up much more of a fight, and Tampa may prove to be just too good for Montreal to handle.

No. I think the Leafs might win a couple of games, but they aren't up to beating Philly who will win the East IMHO. They are basically dead men walking. Sundin and Nieuwendyk are injured (when they play) and Mogilny is finished as a player (he's been playing through constant pain since his operation and is selling his house here - so he's a few games away from retirement).
Philly must have been praying for the Leafs as Ottawa would probably have beaten them.

Watch your ankle. You might break it jumping off the bandwagon so quickly.
The Leafs can still do it. They outplayed Philly in the last game, but the bounces went Philly's way. The Leafs almost tied it in the last minute with Mogilny taking that shot on the open net, only to see it get disappear into the defenceman's pants. That was just bad luck and luck can change.
The Leafs will come back hard in game 3. They ain't out yet.
