Post-Game Talk: Another embarrassing loss

[Folignos Helmet]

Carolina waved Raanta and had no realistic option behind their rookie.

Leafs need some stones and demote him asap.

Impressive. Given him another few months and he'll be averaging sub .500 in his starts.

 

[Cleetus]

Yes.

David Rittich will never get the love he deserves will he ?

Big Sieve Dave! lol

 

[Carltons Cup]

Samsonov allowed 6 goals on 2 expected goals

The analytics guys are scratching their heads over that one

 

[weems]

He's moping out there. The body language is awful. If he's dealing with something he should be shut down.

Didn't he say something at the start of the season that he was dealing with confidence issues or something?

Seems like his season was doomed from the start.

 

[Future]

Samsonov allowed 6 goals on 2 expected goals

But people still blame the team in front of him. As if no other hockey club makes any mistakes over the course of a 60 minute game

 

[GoonieFace]

Waive Sammy and let Keefe play goal

 

[All Mod Cons]

We suffer for another season and let Tavares walk imo if Willy and Marner will settle on semi reasonable numbers. Tavares is such a product of Willy/Marner it’s wild and won’t be worth near what he will ask.

I think you let Tavares walk.

Then you have to pick between Nylander or Marner. Only one.

My preference is Nylander. I understand if others prefer Marner.

You have to get a dman for whichever one you trade.

That's a start.

That's how it's been for 5 years.

To be fair some of those goals were major breakdowns. But Samsonov is beyond repair

 

[notbias]

To a 1 year deal. What the hell did you expect?

I don't think anyone should be blamed for re-signing him, it was the right move, but if people want to point a finger, at least point it at the guy who re-signed him.

 

[Mr_Fun]

He’ll play in back to backs until Woll is back.

Sammy himself doesn’t want to play. He’s mentally done.

I guess that remains to be seen (and likely is), but he's mentally not there at all right now, that's for sure.

 

[Menzinger]

Samsanov was re-signed...

I believe his qualifying offer may have been one of the first formal contract decisions made by Tre.

 

[yubbers]

Just a loser orgainzation. Cater to the f***ing losers. Let’s not pull Samsonov in case we hurt his feelings. f*** his feelings. He’s a f***ing pos. Keefe stop being a little bitch. You wanna win or you care about your loser goalies feelings? f*** off

Keefe is the kinda guy that apologizes for being a man. LOL.

He can't lead anything.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Yeah, and? Samsonov is costing the team points every time he starts.

No shit. That's on the GM to get rid of him. He was obviously playing one of these 2 games on a b2b.

 

[Confucius]

Feel bad for the guy, he’s almost hyperventilating. Hell you’ve made 10 million take it easy and ride away

 

[capfit9]

2-5 in last 7 games

 

[Enga Olly]

Welcome to Toronto. The goalie graveyard.

Samsonov
Soup
Sparks
C Mac
Murray
Kallgren
Mrazek
Hutch
Freddie

Nope not a graveyard - a garbage heap. 2 decent goalies in that whole list and they both just pull the chute. Imagine this team with a stellar Brodeur or Vasilevskiy or Price. Of course I would settle for average NHL goaltending but oh man, if we could ever get elite goaltending

 

[fahad203]

Fire the coach. Get a new voice in.
A new system

 

[Carltons Cup]

I take it that Treliving doesn't read these boards?

 

[BraveCanadian]

How about that complete joke of having 3 guys behind the net while we left a Columbus player completely alone in front?

Samsonov cost us the game absolutely.

But this team is also not good enough. This is supposed to be a cup contender against one of the worst teams in the league.

Agreed.. Samsonov has been bad but pinning this on goaltender after goaltender when you see clown plays like this one where three leafs were all packed in behind the goal while the CBJ is left alone cruising through the slot for a gimme is... crazy... at this point.

Obviously goaltending has to be sorted out but with the rate we burn through them there are much deeper problems on this team. I can't decide if #1 is Keefe or the hilariously thin blue line we have.

 

[ToneDog]

Didn't he say something at the start of the season that he was dealing with confidence issues or something?

Seems like his season was doomed from the start.

Dubas saw the writing on wall and forced shanny to fire him. Lol.

 

[GoonieFace]

I don't think anyone should be blamed for re-signing him, it was the right move, but if people want to point a finger, at least point it at the guy who re-signed him.

The only one to blame is Samsonov himself, he’s been beyond bad, even people who were never fans of his to begin with never saw this coming

 

[yubbers]

I don't care that he makers league minimum or he makes 10 million if he can't play because he's hurt the result is the same.

was never the plan to have him be a FTer.

 

[fahad203]

2-5 in last 7 games

3 of them to Ottawa and Columbus. 2 of the worse teams in the league

 

[cyris]

You absolutely cannot play Dennis Hildeby. He may get shelled, get PTSD, and it could ruin his entire career.

Even with PTSD he’d probably be better than Samsonov
