Forget about that... we're getting swept by whoever plays us in the playoffs.

Boston (5L in last 6 games) and Montreal (5L in last 6 games) have started sucking at the same time.

Only positive is Galchenyuk getting 15min of ice time and playing 7 seconds more than Desharnais!!! Too good to be true.

Not a coincidence his line scored.

Oh for f*** sakes Winnipeg, cant even show up with your playoff asses on the line. Damnit, I was counting on you guys to shut out Ovi, last thing I want to see is him win another Art Ross or heaven forbid the Hart. You wont get any sympathy from me when you miss the playoffs now.

What a great evening

Loserpeg is all but officially done for, and the Scabs lose again. I'm going to crack open a beer and celebrate

easy as pie · #**1950** Posted **Apr 24, 2013, 2:28 AM**

yeah, sucky winnipeg, out of the playoffs in a division any other team on the bubble would have won out. that said, they'll probably beat the habs tomorrow

Boreal · #**1951** Posted **Apr 24, 2013, 3:11 AM**

There are two teams the Jets cannot play with in the NHL's east - Pittsburgh and Washington. Montreal gives us trouble too, but not to the degree the previous two do. We get outclassed by those clubs on a fairly regular basis.

No excuses, but the reality is - tough match up, plus they are rested and we are on a back to back, in Washington, facing a high powered offense, with our top two D-men - Enstrom and Bogosian - missing. Likely would have lost the game, but it is what it is.

Black Star · #**1952** Posted **Apr 24, 2013, 3:42 AM**

With all due respect...Welcome Winnipeg..... To Loser-ville! All we can do now is have some drinks and try to forget what the Hell happened in this Gong show of a season.

I'm looking forward to watching your Pigtown Marble Laffs choke in the first round, and will revel in yet another 45 years (at least) where your perpetual team will continue their Stanley Cup drought

The WORST attempt at an insulting play on the Leafs name. But then that's what happens when you reply while angry eh?

I wonder what city The Jest will be playing in then. Or hey! Maybe they'll be back in Winnipeg again by that point.

Speaking of worst attempt at insulting humor, I think we have a winner right here, because you know, we've never heard of that one before. Can't wait to watch you guys fall off your pedastal in the playoffs

suburbanite · #**1956** Posted **Apr 24, 2013, 2:56 PM**

If the Leafs do end up against Montreal which looks like a good possibility, then I wouldn't dismiss them so easily. Ottawa and Montreal are two teams that Toronto lines up very well against as evidenced by this season.

LOL! "Pedestal"? There's a word that, even as a life-long fan of the Leafs, I don't really think can be ascribed to them.

I don't give a damn if you've never heard it before! Is "Pigtown Marble Laffs" a Winnipeg staple? Funny, never heard it. I've heard the always classy fans chant "Leafs Suck" (which is kind of ironic given how things look as the season comes to an end), but never the little gem you used. I suspect you came up with that one yourself.

Look. Any true Leaf fans knows they've sucked for some time. With the exception of 93, and 99, it has been a dismal history for quite a while.

You and your fellow Leaf/Toronto haters have had lots to work with, and your unending comments of planned city parades are, while wholly inaccurate, somewhat deserved given their abysmal performance.

Having said all that, let me simply state that even if Toronto does go out in the first round, as a fan, I am deservedly pleased that they are in the playoffs. Certainly an improvement over the past nine years.

I realize that cheering for the Leafs on this board, even in an un-antagonistic way is not welcome, and subject to attack more so than any other team, I feel the same way about most other teams as you do about the Leafs/Toronto. The only Canadian teams I have any tolerance left for are Calgary and Edmonton. I was glad that Winnipeg got a team again, but given the attitude of many of their fans, I am utterly ambivalent to their future.

And as much as you will be joyously celebrating the Leafs' loss, should such a thing happen, I too will be filled with glee at the fact that your team almost certainly will not even have the opportunity to lose in the playoffs.

GO LEAFS GO!!!!

As strange is it may seem the Leafs could still overtake Montreal and possibly Boston in the standings. Though not likely, it could still happen and they might end up playing the Sens.

Jets look to be toast, but you never know. Rangers lost to Florida so anything can happen.

I remember the excitement here when the Flames made the playoffs in '04 after 7 years of sucking really bad. Even without the cup run we were stoked to have playoff hockey back! I'm happy for Toronto fans, just dreading hearing nothing but Leafs news every time I turn on a Canadian news or sports channel.

It is possible, but I suspect they'll stay in 5th, though possibly 4th place. The latter would be nice in order to have home ice. Either way, a Toronto v Montreal series would be outstanding!
