Post-Game Talk: Hit em with the 4 like AM34. Leafs lose 4th straight game 7 to Boston: 2-1

[Fogelhund]

Leafs are never winning with this core

You know it, I know it

Our core is poison. It spreads and leads to failure

They are never winning with this combination... of coaching and players.. I'd agree with that.. But that doesn't mean all of them won't be on a winner, and it certainly doesn't make your prior statement less ridiculous.

 

[ORRFForever]

He has NMC/NTC. If we can convince him to waive then great if not he can walk as a UFA for all I care. I will not even invest 10 dollars on this soft cream puff

Kypreos just said Marner will want $12M-$12.5M. WOW!

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

See you boys in October. I hope you guys have a fantastic summer.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

It's the Leafs, so I figure everyone will be back next year.

Keefe and Samsonov are gone for sure.

Way more than just that is warranted, but i won't hold my breath.

 

[Bomber0104]

Love the grit. Love the effort. Love the defense. New President. New coaching staff. Trade Rielly and Marner.

It wasn't the grit or defence, you can be sure of that in this game.

It was offence.

They are paid to be an offensive-powerhouse and they made that clear in how their contracts were negotiated.

They simply did not deliver, again.

 

[PanniniClaus]

a lot of us hate on these guys but how many of us have our lives in order ourselves. I just don’t care anymore as much. over investment in one ended relationships aren’t healthy after a certain age. try and enjoy the sun tomorrow fellas

you are in the wrong place..

 

[Skip Bayless]

Sorry boys. You still have good players, just a matter of tweaking a bit more.

 

[wingman75]

Not for me. Trade Marner (stupid NMC).

Yea, of course you trade him if you can... my point is the return does not matter. If he won't agree to go... he can walk. Team is better off either way.

 

[thewave]

One guy shouldn't have to score all the goals. It's ridiculous.

After every friggen game I'd be posting, "this guy needs to produce" or, "that guy needs to produce" but nooooo... how does a guy who misses the first three games end up leading the team in goals in the series?

I get that Marner does some shit defensively, but this guy isn't f***ing Bobby Holik. If he's not going to score or assist on goals more often or at critical moments, he needs to go. He's had enough chances. He just doesn't have it in the playoffs. Not with this team anyway. Maybe he can go and be a Phil Kessel (in PIT) somewhere.

I guess only Nylander scored for us in game 6 and 7. That's pretty awesome for him and pathetic for the rest of the team and coach.

 

[SprDaVE]

Like this is a big problem and they need heads to roll for this one way or another. I guess Keefe will take the majority of the heat here, but man... the players are just cursed.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

This team is just cursed against Boston I tell you though

They didn't lose because they're cursed.

They lost because they don't know how to finish a series.

 

[Dale Gribble]

Didn't see this asked here yet, but how much more respect did Boston show us during the handshakes this time ?

 

[Commander Clueless]

Make sure to put it on rookie mode so they score more than 2 goals when you run the simulation

Pretty sure it crashes if you score more than 2

 

[torontoblood]

The leafs know how to break your heart better than any woman out there.

 

[Ports]

Rielly's time is up. That money needs to be spent on a true alpha who can simply do more, more often and be a gamer. His little daydreaming stick check on Pasta unaware of body positioning and puck in that OT goal was just so Morgan. Weak D, critical time.

He doesn’t reallly bring anything to the table anymore. So soft and not a winner.

 

[authentic]

Kypreos saying Marner will command 12M.

Gotta get rid of him at this point. Serious changes have to be made.

 

[bax]

In no other arena in the NHL would that puck fly out of that corner like that.

You're not really blaming the stanchion are you?

 

[wingman75]

Kypreos saying Marner will command 12M.

If we give it to him, I will honestly have to reconsider my relationship with this franchise. I know they don't care... but that would be so wrong I'm not sure I could ever get behind it.

 

[Thornbury]

Florida wins in a sweep. Boston is toast

And the average TV audience size in Ontario will be about 15 people. Too bad for Rogers.

 

[JT AM da real deal]

Rielly was a huge disappointment this series .. game 7 da ot goal was all on him .. and mitch was nowhere defensively in ot goal too .. those 2 were a huge disappointment

 

[Incognito]

Swayman was by far the best player in the series and we lost the special teams battle handily. Pretty amazing, considering, that we came within a goal of pulling out a win.

Such a classic Leafs thing that we could have had Swayman in the 2017 draft. Instead:

Matthews cant be the best player on a cup team

Nylander 2nd

Rielly 3rd

Tavares cant be a top 6 player and marner hasbt shown anything either

Of course the last statement was hyperbolic but we need 1 or 2 better players than matthews/nylander/rielly to win a cup

60 pt players dont win cups

Mackinnon or Makar type franchise piece is needed to come steer the ship

 

[Commander Clueless]

Kypreos saying Marner will command 12M.

I hope he enjoys it San Jose.

 

[MSZ]

Kypreos saying Marner will command 12M.

In what currency? Korean Won?
