I thought it was well done. Disappointing they won't do this next year. Should do something like this but better annually. Could help the Leafs brand transcend hockey and sport.
I only watched 2 episodes, maybe I should stop there lmao!Have you seen Titanic?
Just watch the whole thing. It’s worth it.I only watched 2 episodes, maybe I should stop there lmao!
He's on the lower right. Best Sabre ever!Have you seen Titanic?
By far the most frustrating part. You see how dejected they are and it's visibly clear that they do/say everything right in preparation, yet you re-watch the game and there's so many stretches of invisible, low intensity play that it's mind boggling. This market just shell shocks guys and they don't know how to execute under the pressure.Okay just finished and it's very well done. I got down watching the ending too. In one way, I feel for the players and the ending was tough to watch. They were visibly devestated. On the other hand though, I'm angry considering they didn't play with nearly enough urgency in game 7 despite what they said before and during the game, so not sure being as sad as they were really counts.
I liked the meetings they had before and during games. Keefe doesn't let guys off the hook and the man is clearly passionate. Dubas goes off just like he is in the media. Very friendly but down to business.
I enjoyed it despite knowing the result.
Spezza and JT are absolute beauties though.
Didn’t know Ricky Martin played on the Sabres, lol.He's on the lower right. Best Sabre ever!

One of the best goal scorers of his era.Didn’t know Ricky Martin played on the Sabres, lol.
About to watch all these episodes. Hoping for a great ending to the season!!!...fingers crossed.
After the first couple episodes we first in the division, looks like we could go all the way boys!!!
After 3 episodes we in first and got Foligno too. This is it! This is it!!!
Your reaction is why goalies get run out of Toronto. Goalies need to stop clean shots. A fluke save is great but asking a goalie to stop a 90 mph puck that changes directions half way through its course is ridiculous. Especially when it goes off your own player. It's pretty f***ing easy to blame a goalie when you as a coach havent taught your players to clear the lane properly.
We get it. Doesn’t matter. Make one more stop than the other guy.It just shows how many people don’t understand goaltending. If you’ve never played the position you have no f***ing clue.
These guys have no idea how much of a save goes into everything before the shot and how a small deflection or angle change puts all that work out the window.
They are also clueless about the math - human reaction time is roughly 1/3 of a second, not including the time it takes to move body parts into position. You literally cannot react to shots within a certain distance traveling a certain speed.
It’s why reading the release is so important it buys you that extra .2 of a second you need to react. Which is why defensemen putting a stick out or half getting in the way of a shot enough to block the goalies view of the puck leaving the stick cause so many goals that look bad to the average viewer.

Ugh.... or what about that "husky" defencemen that never seems to get out of your line of sight.....It just shows how many people don’t understand goaltending. If you’ve never played the position you have no f***ing clue.

No...No you dont... pipe down...We get it. Doesn’t matter. Make one more stop than the other guy.
Haha so you think that glove, blocker, pad saves all happen by going into a butterfly? You dont think that you have to react at all?Goaltending is 90% positioning, 10% reacting.
Humans simply cannot react fast enough to things like redirections a foot out from the net on a 90 mph puck which is why positioning is the most important thing for a goaltender. Do you even know why goalies go into butterfly or come way out of the net?Haha so you think that glove, blocker, pad saves all happen by going into a butterfly?

It just hits a goalie and thats it? Pipe down...
Even though they were in 1st, Keefe was concerned about winning habits, closing games out, with an eye towards the playoffs all while the players seemed to be complacent with where they were at.

Rielly's intermission speech was also good to see. Clearly a natural leader, same with Spezza/Foligno/Tavares. Dialed up the urgency but too little too late.

Babs may have had issues but he knew his Leaf teams needed to learn how to play playoff hockey. Too bad it is taking the guy who fired him this long to figure it out. We gonna find out soon if this new mix of players has what it takes.
you mean the guy that came in halfway through the year 2 years ago? Last season was his first season he was there from the beginning and he was preaching what they need to do to win playoff hockey?
