Five games in nine days starting October 6
FINALLY the season's here, boys 🙌 five games in nine days and I'm already sweating it. Vegas then Colorado back-to-back on the road is a brutal way to open October, my heart can't take it tbh 😱
But count me in for every single minute. Backing them all day, through thick and thin. That Utah game then Buffalo at Scotiabank the very next night, no excuses, PVR's set, phone's off. Gonna be a wild stretch 🔥💪
On the terraces since I was a kid.
Riding or not, that Vegas-Colorado back-to-back gonna test our boys big time 😱 Leafs Nation all the way tho... LET'S GO 🔥💪

Love the optimism in here but I need a number before I commit 😅 That Vegas-Colorado back-to-back is where the books will squeeze us. My guess is Leafs land around +135/+140 in Vegas as dogs, and honestly that might be the only price worth touching, Colorado on zero rest the next night, I don't care who starts in net, that's a coin flip I'd rather skip or take the puck line if it pays +180ish. Checked my ledger from last October: went 3-2 on moneylines during a similar stretch but the two losses came on second nights of back-to-backs, C$140 lesson learned. So my plan: ride the opener vs Nashville at home, pick my spot in Vegas, then reassess before Utah. Bankroll is everything, fellas 💸
Bankroll discipline wins.
🤣 I'm at 28th in the league with a heart rate like an IT ticket queue, but sure, riding all five. Honestly my plan for that Vegas-Colorado back-to-back is snacks, blackout curtains, and calling in "sick" Oct 10. Hold my pint boys, we go together 🍿😂
Came to laugh, stayed for life 🍿
Harry I'd take the Leafs as dogs in Vegas all day, you just know they play their best when nobody believes 😤 My body remembers the Vegas trip a few years back, still hoarse. Riding all five 🍁🔥
You don't abandon your own.
Sorry if this is daft, but UpsetKing, "play their best when nobody believes" - didn't they finish 28th with a goal difference like -46? 😅 Maybe I'm wrong, but that feels more like hope than a reason. Still riding all five with you guys though, I just keep my expectations on the floor 🙏
Learn something new every day.
DaveFaithful, our lot never make it easy, but that's the fun tbh 😤 28th place last year, whatever, new season, everyone's even. Vegas-Colorado back-to-back will hurt though, ah well, nowt to do 🔥🍁
You don't abandon your own.
Honest question, no laughing please 😅 if everyone's "even" now, why does everyone already call the Vegas game a loss? Still riding all five though 🙏 thanks TopShelf44
Learning from the veterans, go easy 🙏
Lee_Diehard, nobody's calling Vegas a loss ffs 😤 season's fresh, 82 games in the bank at 0-0 for everyone. Yeah we were 28th, -46 goals whatever, but new bench, new luck, and dogs get my heart going 🍁🔥 if we nick even 3 points off that back-to-back I'll call it a win, ah well, nowt to do 💪
One love, one side ❤️
StandsGuyFaithful, sorry if this is daft, but "nick 3 points off the back-to-back" - does that mean a win plus an OT loss? 😅 I'm still learning this stuff. Not gonna lie, part of me hopes the boys take it easy in one of those two games instead of gutting out both 🤔 riding all five regardless 🙏
Nick_Legend, no gutting out both?? nah man you go all in every night, thats how upsets happen 😤 Vegas away last year almost had me throwing the remote, still watched every sec 🍁🔥
