FTB: how many overtimes?

The first game in the Eastern Conference Final started at 8pm, and by 2am the next day I don't know who won. Sunbelt Hockey pretended it was in the pacific time zone as the Hurricanes and Panthers reached deep into quadruple overtime in a 2-2 game to open

Expected Goals and the Gambler's Fallacy

For the Toronto Maple Leafs, the series against the Florida Panthers has had a much different arrangement than the one against the Tampa Bay Lightning. I have two points to make around this. My shorter point is I think the Leafs prepared well for the Lightning defensively with their specialized

FTB: Just Win, Baby, or Else

Game 2 Preview: Mystery line changes expected for Maple Leafs

Now that the new round smell is worn off, let's get back to work beating the Florida Panthers. The Leafs played well in Game 1, and looked very dangerous on the power play, but late period struggles led to the game slipping away from them.

FTB: Even more reactions of the Leafs series win over Tampa Bay

I am stuck with two emotions right now. The first is oh my god we won, we actually beat the Bolts, it happened, it really happened. And that I want nothing more than three more of these feelings before the end of June. Bring on Boston or Florida, we'

What to do with Michael Bunting

FTB: it's only game, why you heff to be mad?
