Post-Game Talk: Another Shit Effort, Another Predictable Loss, Rinse, Repeat

[MarMarSab3]

What kind of player can they get at 14?

Adam Jiricek please

 

[wingman75]

They're going to catch Boston. Don't ask me how but I know they will.

Yea, maybe on the golf course after the Bruins lose in the first round.

Will we be trading down to 14?

 

[All Mod Cons]

We've gotta get out of the Tavares contract.

 

[CabanaBoy5]

I know it’s already been said, but seriously, after this game, no way Keefe should have a job. Putting the lines in a blender tonight of all nights, with Samsonov in net, was the most stupid decision I’ve seen from a Leaf coach. To start a game the way they did, disinterested for most of the game, can indirectly be blamed on the coach.

 

[Confucius]

No way, we just have to pay the piper there are no shortcuts.

LOL WTF keefe WTF

Detroit travelled in the snow, was waiting all day at the airport and only arrived 2 hours before the puck drop.

WTF

Thought the same, they did look tired.
Why the outrage? You thought they had a lot of jump ?

Shanahan allowed these kids to dictate the teams path years ago, the day he fired Babcock this team was lost as they felt untouchable

Shanny was born to play hockey. Period. The man is not an intellectual, a psychologist, a financier, a coach, a humanitarian, an educator, a self made businessman - he is, putting it nicely, a simple moron. What outcome, other than the one playing out now, should anyone expect?

Watch the Peter Sellers film, "Being There".

 

[TheShape]

Almost looks like they're playing to get Keefe fired, like under Babcock his last few weeks...Or they're really just that bad.

Turns out we can start writing off this year as well. I could see a modest sell off by the trade deadline.

This season is over man, don’t be surprised to see them miss the playoffs

Keefe in the post game is happy with the way the team is playing. He thinks the team is playing well. The guy must be f***ing drunk.

 

[saffronleaf]

newgm has constructed the worst matthews era leafs team ever

 

[Gabriel426]

Can we just admit that the Leafs is just not as good as we all think they are. It’s quite frustrating watching game after game after game without any structure and system. Continue to make the same mistakes over and over again.

 

[mikeyz]

We've gotta get out of the Tavares contract.

And Marner too.

My sense is they'll be out of a playoff spot by the time the Seattle game is over and it's either a free fall to the bottom 10 just from the goaltending mismanagement, panic coaching and demoralized group... or they hover around the WC position but get no traction.

The idea of waiting for Woll to be healthy, good and stay healthy is just a disaster waiting to happen.

 

[Gary Nylund]

They're going to catch Boston. Don't ask me how but I know they will.

Did you tell the Bruins it won't be long before we take over the division? I wish somebody would.

Well, @Evilhomer guaranteed we'd take over 1st place in January, so it's only a matter of time.

Wait, he later guaranteed that we'd take over 1st place in December so ...

 

[All Mod Cons]

No way, we just have to pay the piper there are no shortcuts.

It's so painful to watch him out there. We've got 123 games to wade through. This has got to be the beginning of the end for him and Marner right?

We've got no assets left to improve the team. Basically we have got to build the team through free agency, which has never happened before.

 

[PromisedLand]

Aight I am out. Early morning work tomorrow. Just need to chill teh F down

 

[1specter]

Don't worry, we'll be tied for first in July.

Shanahan allowed these kids to dictate the teams path years ago, the day he fired Babcock this team was lost as they felt untouchable

well, they were certainly dealt with like they were untouchable. While the players remained top calibre, no-one can say that it would have been a surprise to shave a bit off every single salary they were given, and in this case, a bit means 25K-2500K. And can you imagine the inter-superstar competition to be paid/to be top-dog? ANd how it affects your younger teammates hoping for their own modest payday.

And now that Willy has topped out after endless years of being poor boy, who thinks Marner will blink next summer? And what can veteran Tavares even do? And will any other Leaf home-grown player ever get have a chance to sign a modest 2nd or 3rd NHL contract with the Leafs? Or will their $$ continue to evaporate...

Quite a story.

I 100% agree. I really like Woll a lot and think he has potential to be the #1, but at this point it is a gamble. He is young and needs time.

This team is falling fast right now. Their confidence must be very low at this point. I’m not too sure where they go from here.

People just have a hate on for Keefe regardless of what he does or says. It's nauseating.

My only comment would be, though what he said is true, you are the home team and supposedly the better team. You have to find a way to get it done.

 

[ACC1224]

Seems like a good time for the team to get out of town.

100% tired is a poor excuse.

McCabe icing versus Islanders.
McCabe giveaway tonight by his own net for a goal against.
Giordano pass to the opposition while killing a penalty for a goal against.
Brodie lifting his skate letting a pass through for a goal against.
Mental errors leading to losses.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

That's 3 in a row goaltending has Blown and under normal circumstances I wouldn't even be saying that about tonight because Samsonov was OK, he even made a couple BIG saves.

But It's Samsonov he will find a way to blow it, and in the end he did, like he has all season.

Much like the dude that hired him...he's reverse Rumpelstiltskin. He's managed to turn gold into straw. He needs to go to Pittsburgh. We'll trade him for some drill pylons.

McCabe is straight-up braindead. Easily our worst d-man
