Don't look up advanced stats of that period, it'll give you nightmares. Probably the worst period of the year, and it's game 4 of the playoffs. Should tell you all you need to know about the team and coach.
 
Just calling out the worse forward on the ice so far.

He sucked, but at least he's not bailing on the puck at the earliest opportunity like a coward. He also had one of the only successful controlled entries against four Lightning D back when everyone else is just dumping the puck in for nobody to retrieve.
 
Poise on the puck is polar opposite between these two teams

It's crazy how many times the Leafs flob a pass or miss a pass on a simple break out. Meanwhile they are making 200 MPH passes without a sweat.

There's something where the preparation and focus is just so different. There's something really lacking and it'll take a miracle for this game to be salvaged.

I truly regret the Patrick Marleau project on every level. And Thornton was terrible too. There's never a good idea to bring ex-Sharks from that era into your program.

It was really weird listening to Brian Boyle on radio the other day. He almost spoke in a disappointed and confused manner about how this group didn't take the next steps after the Washington series.

Man, this group.
Marleau didn't even want to be in toronto...he left because the leafs offered him an outrageous contract. His family hated Toronto. We replaced Komarov and Martin mentoring this team to Marleau.

If Matthews either doesn't bring it or is too injured to bring it in the playoffs consistently, can you really pay him what he will want on his next contract?

Possibly some big decisions this summer
 
Finally, signs of life. Now would be a bad time to turn Vasi back into his normal self
 
TB playing better. Zero odd-man rushes since the first goal of G3. Almost no turnovers. Urgency in every play. Relentless forechecking. How many times have they made a bad pass?
yep might be the time for the leafs to jack up the urgency if they want to compete, its men against boys
