For the love of god split up Matthews and Marner - how many f***ing playoff losses does it take to realize they don't mesh well together for playoff hockey

Brodie has been worse than usual every time he's been forced to play LD and pairing him with Holl is a hilarious way to try to get him out of his funk (which is half caused by McCabe being braindead).
Maybe that pairing will be so bad that on like a spectrum they’d loop around to good?

Idk man I don’t know what else to say. I might’ve reunited Brodie Rielly but our dpairs are so f***ed because our 2nd AND 3rd best defencemen are struggling TOGETHER.





The virgin Marner vs the chad Nylander.

a few years ago this quote would’ve gotten me inspired and ready to fully BeLeaf. That last couple years have worn me down, I just can’t see it.

That nylander quote especially, it SOUNDS like a quote of a winner. Someone who will go out there and do it, but we know his talent level, coupled with the baggage that is Tavares….and yea I can’t see it.

Yeah not just them, but McCabe has been worse than Brodie and dragging him down. Giordano and Holl have been straight garbage. I thought this was why we got all that depth at the deadline? The logical thing would be to try Gustafsson-Brodie and McCabe-Liljegren although unfortunately Liljegren has also been terrible recently, but at least he has some potential offensive upside unlike Holl.

Marner pisses me off, no accountability ever.

Leafs will prob win 3 games in convincing fashion only to lay another egg in game 7, no show top 4 and end up losing in Overtime after blowing a late third period lead.

Hey Mitch how about you get your head out of your ass and start playing, people wouldn’t be shitting on you if actually showed up. It’s not the fans fault or the media’s fault you’re down 3-0

Sheldon Keefe is definitely going out with the guys he's put his trust in. Kerfoot in the top six and Holl in the top-4 on the shutdown pairing. To be honest this makes it pretty easy to fire him, Holl and Kerfoot are players this team has shown a lot of faith in for a long time, Keefe is the one playing them up the lineup. If they lose with Keefe's horses in prime positions in embarrassing fashion, like a sweep to the #8 seed, then he should be fired.

LMAO this JOKE of a coach still doesn't have Nylander on #1PP unit. Can't make this shit up


Should probably split the two units considering the personnel involved. Not that I'm expecting as much to occur though.
