**** off. We won this series against the back to back champs and it got stripped away from us by the zebras. Dubas has put together a fantastic team
Lol no. They lost because of coaching and Dubas’ failure to bring in a goalie.

They had sub .900 goaltending for months why be surprised when the goaltending was also sub .900 in the playoffs
 
You don't realize how stupid marner on PK is until you get deep in a series.

If marner not on pk he dominate this whole game, I guarantee you. It's not shameful to say he got gassed near the end. Look at Kucherov he looked like a 50 year old man who smokes 20 cigs a day huffing and puffing by game 7 against Leafs and he has to do less than Marner.

Actually this game doesn't even exist because Marner and Nylander would have locked up game 6 together.

I don't understand why he's PK1. Not even compromise with PK2.

Every year same stuff. Marner wasted on PK. Weak depth players who play scared. Keefe making dumb decisions that cost us games. Rinse and repeat.
 
Keep Dubas, great. Fire him, great. Whatever I don't care either way. I just have no attachment to anyone in this organization.
 
  • Massive overpayments
  • 50% of the cap tied to 4 forwards (did not show up in Game 7s btw)
  • Not enough cap left to have decent depth
  • Upcoming contracts
  • The goalie he signed -> Mrazek will be the #1 goalie. Leafs will not be able to afford Campbell btw
  • This core shits the bed when it matters so we need decent depth
    • BUT no cap space left for decent depth
  • Hired a rookie coach that continues to SUCK when it comes to playoffs
  • Does not even have BALLS to call out biased anti-leaf officiating
  • This season the Kadri trade looks even worse than it was orginally

There are so many F-ups.

I do like not throwing away the 1st rounders this year for another 1st round exit. This team did not show up to play in Game 2, Game 4 and Game 7; while turtling in the 3rd period in Game 6 with only 4 shots on goal. Part of is on coaching; he is the one that hired the coach.

If there are any major moves being done then I'd prefer it is not Dubas doing it. Let the new GM come in and make those moves. If you want to remain status-quo then I don't really care whether dubas stays or goes.

If dubas makes any major moves this off season I am going to take a break from Leafs. His screw ups are so massive that I just cannot invest myself emotionally with this team anymore. Life is short; and the experience that is life is being miserable for a lot of people (leafs fans) because of 3 guys making ridiculous decisions

1) Shanahan
2) Dubas
3) Keefe

3 guys should not be ruining it for thousands perhaps millions of Leafs fans. Period!

Well said.

Shanny has been here for 8 years.

Dubas has been here for 8 years and 4 as the gm.

Both are proven failures.

I'm not sure the dubas fan boys are even leaf fans. No one that chears for a team can want to keep someone like Kyle.

Who would you have brought in, and how?
 
How does Nick Paul beast us (our D made it easy for him but can't deny his effort level) but mik and engvall continue to do nothing.

And how did Keefe fall for their little run with the goalie pulled in game 3, costing us game 4 by losing the first period?

If Dubas continues to think mik engvall holl are playoff depth my loyalty ends in 22/23.


Goes without saying I want Trotz in for Keefe. Tampa had the lead and shortened their bench. We're still rolling 4 lines until 6 minutes left down 2-1
Its par with the course, 2 seasons ago Leafs got shutout by a 1b/backup quality goaltender in an all or nothing game 5, last playoffs against the Habs Gallagher and Perry, both 3rd line quality players at that point scored 2 goals for the Habs which was too much for the Leafs to get over. Of course it ends up being Nick Paul, on a team stacked with elite talent, is the one who ends up putting the dagger on the Leafs season.
 
I think we like the idea of having Trotz like elements on this team, but somebody more plugged in would have to decide whether Trotz's work in Washington would be compatible with the core group. Otherwise the coach and roster aren't in sync.
 
Dubas greatest mistake has been Keefe
His second mistake has been Campbell

Dude keeps throwing darts hoping someone would stick. He got lucky with Bunting because Arizona all in their glory didn't want him
Even he sucked in the playoffs

Kase. Sucked in the playoffs
Kampf. Was ok
Mikaheyev. Sucked in the playoffs
Simmonds. Sucked
Clifford. Was ok
Holl. Ok, then sucked, then ok then sucked
Campbell..... Bro has so many ups and downs, i don't even know anymore. One game he's a champ, next game he utter trash
Muzzin. Mostly ok
Brodie. Kinda a sucked
Blackwell. Ok. No physicality though
Kerfoot. Garbage
Gio. Ok
Mrazek. Yes he's still part of this team

But greatest GM. Apparently he drafts well. We still haven't seen any of those draft picks of his btw. Other than Abbrruzzee who sucked
Sandin has been ok.
Robertsson, he hasn't done jack in NHL yet. He can still be a very good player
 
Just as I predicted. The shitty supporting cast was too soft. The studs failed in the playoffs. Yawn. Get a guy who can build a real team.

Best Leafs team ever am I right fellas?

Marner trying to skate directly through players and turning the puck over time and time again is not from him being tired. It has to do with his mindset thinking he's the best player in the world. He has always held onto the puck too much because that's what he did in junior. He was allowed to do that, even encouraged to do so when that is not the way the game is played. 1 player cannot win a game by themselves, but he believes he can.

Time to start looking forward to next year. What changes can we make to improve the team? Some tough decisions need to be made. I want Nylander to stay but his days are numbered. He has no chemistry with JT and you're not breaking up Marner and MAtthews. Waste to have an 80 pt player on a line with Kampf. Trade him for a defenceman. Let Mikheyev and Lyubushkin walk. Sign Spezza to league min as 13th forward.

Bunting - MAtthews - Marner
Rakell - Tavares - Domi
Robertson- Kampf - Kase
Engvall - Blackwell - Motte
Spezza / Simmonds

Rielly - Pelech
Brodie - Muzzin
Lilijgren - Giordano
Sandin


Campbell
Wedgewood
