Ottawa in six - whoever thinks Toronot has more talent is off their rocker. The 6-0 on Saturday was a fluke. 2-0 would have really be more impressive; six is just luck. Ottawa has more depth, talent, and speed, and once Lalime is back, Ottawa is set. Lalime's playoff gaa is 0.4 lower overall than Belfours.

Go sens go!

dank7oo.. Belfour has also been in the league since 1989 and played 148 Playoff games.. He's also won a Stanley Cup.. What are Lalime's credentials?? 34 Playoff games and, oh yes, one series win.. Better get your parade planned... Do you already have the Golf Course picked out??

Yeah, the Leafs lack depth.. LMAO.. Let's see, we're sitting 3 Defenceman that would easily make the top 6 on about 80% of the rest of the leagues teams (with the exception of a few teams). And yeah, they have no depth up front.. LMFAO.. 4 Lines that can all score.. Chris Neil is gonna be scoring lots for you guys, same with Varada.. Ottawa and Depth in the same sentence, almost works..

I dont think anyone on here can deny that belfour is a great goalie and has the talent and playoff experience to get the leafs to the cup. GAA doesnt mean anything at all....because you only gotta win by one goal no matter how it comes.

Meh. Matt, I can say the same about Domi and Belak - LOL
4th line of Vermette, Neil, Spezza, Redden, and Pothier is probably THE top forth line in the NHL.
And as for top defencmen .. Chara, Redden, Phillips, and Volchenkov are the top 4 defence on any team in the league.
Nice try.

Spezza's a 3rd Line Center (if he's playing on the 4th line, that's a shame) and oh yeah, he's hurt.. but okay.. As for Belak and Domi... Well, Belak is suspended and wont and wouldnt be playing the playoffs anyway.. And once Tucker comes back, you can say bye to Domi.. I'll give Ottawa credit, they have a good team, they have a lot of fire power.. But look at what happened on Saturday, they lack heart.. Remember a couple months ago when Ottawa was winning 4-0 and Toronto came back and won 5-4?? Yeah, lemme guess, 'Ottawa had the flu'.. Likely excuse.. I'm sorry, but as long as Ottawa is captained by Aldresson and has Lalime in net, they best they will be is exciting in the regular season.. I feel sorry for Spezza, he deserves to play for a good team..

I can't wait to watch Neil chase Marchment around the ice like a moron trying to pick a fight, and ultimatly taking a penalty cause Marchement caught, Havlat, Hossa, and countless others coming across center with their head down..

This is why I cant stand leaf fans...every year they think that they're going to win the cup

Matt_K · 04-05-04, 11:35 PM

Isnt that the point of having a favorite team?? Im sorry, but if you don't think that your fav. team is gonna win it, you're not a fan

And this is why i LOVE all hockey fans, stand up for your team, if they go out first round, hold your head high, cause atleast they made the playoffs, and don't be ashamed of an early exit, it could be worse, they could be the Penguins.. LMAO..

ChokeOnSmoke · 04-05-04, 11:42 PM

I would rather be a penguins fan than a rangers fan

CDN-Cresties · 04-05-04, 11:57 PM

I see your point but the leafs could barely scrape in the playoffs for instance and leafs fans would still think that they'll win. They have a good chance to win but its too tight to call a straight up winner.

Matt_K · 04-06-04, 12:05 AM

I agree with you 100% man, that's why the Leafs have the best fans in the league.. Now if only they would let the FANS have tickets and not the losers in the business suits who sit on their hands watching the games.. It's a shame that Leaf fans have to go to games in Buffalo, Ottawa and Montreal to be heard..

CDN-Cresties · 04-06-04, 12:18 AM

I agree with you on that point completly!!!

latazyo · 04-06-04, 02:08 AM

CDN-Cresties: glad to see you know your Avs goaltending, I think we're the only 2 Avs fans around

NewLineReptile · 04-06-04, 02:35 AM

You know it is Spring in Toronto When the leafs start to fall.

but i am still a Toronto fan all the way.

lol - spezza is on the forth line (unless they change for the playoffs) and our coach AT LEAST takes responsibility for losses .. not like quinn saying the sens play dirty?! i mean come on, toronto has more goons than the wizard of oz has flying monkies. as for marchment ... its a shame the league dosent pay more attension to him, because he should have been thrown out a long time ago.
