GDT: Around the League - Stanley Cup Edition - Round #2

[saffronleaf]

Coaches need a union, lol. How is that fair that a coach can get fined $25,000 bucks but a player can only get $5000 max? Doesn't make sense.

lol but a BRUINS coach complaining about officiating... there should be a special fine for that.

I LOVE the Leafs I think I have started developing serious dislike bordering on hate against the people who "manage" the Leafs and some who represent the Leafs on ice


I guess thats the difference for you too eh?

Yeah I'm at that point too, I love the franchise and I don't see that going away. But the collapse has soured my feelings towards the current core, management and coaching. At this point I honestly dislike the current iteration of the leafs more than any other team in the league for what they have put us through lmao

 

[leafsfan5]

f*** this stupid embarrassing city.

This is pathetic, why are we such a f***ing joke

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Imagine if Liverpool flew the colours of Manchester United because they were the last remaining English team in the UEFA Champions League? Jfc the humiliation doesn’t end.

 

[Gallagbi]

That CN Tower call is pretty gutless.

Leafs seem to not know the difference between humility and humiliation.

The team seems to love humiliation but judging from the way management/coaching/the star players talk they don't know what humility is

 

[stickty111]

f*** this stupid embarrassing city.

It's upsetting but totally deserved for us. The entire Leafs team should be ashamed of themselves that the city does this.

 

[Legion34]

People care about the colours on a tower? Sure....

 

[stickty111]

I still think Marner is better. He would have passed and ruin a chance, but it takes a special player to pass there.

 

[stickty111]

This is pathetic, why are we such a f***ing joke

I got upset at first but it makes more angry at the Leafs team then anything else.

 

[Superstar]

Great goal by Point. Carolina is a great team but looks like Tampa is still the better team.

Point again, eh? Man, he deked the jockstrap out of the goalie there...

 

[hamzarocks]

People care about the colours on a tower? Sure....

Putting up the Habs colors just reeks of a loser mindset

Why are we embracing/encouraging the team we got humiliated by in the 1st round

If this was our 1st round exit with us having deep runs in the past you can ignore and just say whatever
However this teams been a complete joke now 3 years in a row.

Toronto shouldn't be supporting Montreal or giving them attention. No other Canadian team would ever do that and they shouldn't have to. Canadian teams hate one another as it should be.

At the end of the day the leafs did collapse so it goes back to them, but what's the point of doing this? We're a proud city and here we are parading the colours of the team whom we collapsed against. It's pathetic

there would be riots. It is almost like Arsenal fans waiving ManU flags because ManU is the only English team left.

In all my life including some inappropriate things said to me by few in Toronto, I never ever felt as low as a Torontonian than I do today.

I don't even know how to put it in words how disgusted I am with the CN Tower stunt

Thats a fair point. Our city hasn't exactly been the smartest recently.

Lindy Ruff says NO GOAL!

Anfield would be a smoldering ruin and downtown Liverpool would look like downtown Mogadishu

lol at least in the Kessel era expectations were low

One would think repeated humiliation would lead to some humility but not with these guys

 

[LadyLala]

f*** this stupid embarrassing city.

Disgusting

 

[Superstar]

One would think repeated humiliation would lead to some humility but not with these guys

If these guys had any humility, they wouldn't bend over their own organization during contract negotiations, and subsequently seeing their own teammates shipped out like Kapanen, Johnsson, and probably Hyman next.

The Kessel-Phaneuf core at least put up a fight in their do or die game 7. They were just really bad and had no business getting that far, but they at least gave it their all. These current Leafs haven’t put up a halfway decent performance in a Game 7 (or Game 5) scenario since 2018. 2019, 2020, and 2021 final games have been consistently the worst games of the series.

Yup and for all the hate he got, Kessel did show up in the playoffs. Both for the Leafs and the Pens.
