Toronto still hasn't figured out how to put away a team on the ropes.

Headmen is back!

Rangers on the ropes, too many good players not enough role players

You could see their body language change when they fell behind.

You gotta wonder just how much it's in their heads at this point.

I think it’s definitely in their heads. There’s no reason they shouldn’t be putting Tampa away.

 

[macmaroon]

Gio sold the hell out of that, but that was still a stupid thing for Maroon to do.

What did I do now, I was taking a nap...

Yea they traded for Kane and Tank and right now its not looking so good.

Eyssimont 2 points against the Leafs.

Kuhlman five point period coming up!

Yep.

While no one really expected Mikey to be a difference-maker over the course of the season, good to see him be a difference-maker in a must-win game.

Good guy, plays hard, deserves his taste of glory.

 

[kanadalainen]

Isles coming to play, lots of high danger chances in the first period. Canes back on their heels.

In the FLA game:

Tkachook dives but grabs a penalty and Montour opens the scoring in Sunrise. Then Hall draws one off Gudas (what a goon) and Bertuzzi pounds one home. All tied up.

 

[RabidOne]

Kuhlman five point period coming up!

Kulman five points (in a season), period!

 

[jungles]

Go Florida!

So two teams that were both down 1-3 in their series, both went on the road to win games and make their series 2-3, are now both at home and currently winning their games tonight…

and the Jets who were in the same situation being down 1-3 decided that giving up and rolling over worked for them.

Looks like some push back in the Panthers. Their series on the line for two games now and they seem to just up their game, not wither up abs die. Honestly would love to see Paul Maurice do well. We’re seeing more and more we just have a core that’s just so rotten and pathetic that nobody could coach this current team well.

Or is it the organization is so bad that players get caught up in a sea of incompetence? Easier to blame the players then those in control.

At the end of the day the players play the games.

The team was given the structure they craved, and though they were no Goliath they had strength at all positions. They decided to fold like a cheap tent.

I'm ready for something new.

Looks frantically for the "why not both?" meme...

IMO unless you change the decision makers we will just roll around in the same shit. I'm guessing at this point players are begging their agents to get them out of this mess.

Well I hope we start fresh, give them their wishes. We need a proper president of hockey ops, let him hire his gm, let the gm hire his staff and start building from the start.

I think maybe tnse put 'family' and player treatment to high on the priority scale.

It's possible to treat the players well but not tolerate lack of performance. These players are paid handsomely.

 

[Channelcat]

I'm willing to admit that Paul Maurice was not the problem here.

I just think Chevy kept together an unhappy bunch that tried to put on a brave face, but too many are looking for the nearest exit to be able to come together. The very first thing that should happen for this organization is start with a new GM and build from there.

 

[bustamente]

I feel like I'm repeating myself from last year at this time, Chevy had his time as GM and should of been out the door last year but no they give him an extension and here we are again this year hearing negative commentary about the team and it's coming from the coach. Chevy needs to go

 

[JetsFan815]

If Panthers pull this off against the mighty Bruins then that "Maurice Vindicated?" thread would prove to be prescient.
