In How Many Series Would You Say The Leafs Have Choked?

[John Mandalorian]

2018 --> we got whooped this series. Itwas like 2013. We were down 3-1 and then bruins go on their patented game 5 and 6 choke job giving leafs hope after some great goaltending from andersen. Game 7 leafs blow a 4-3 lead in 2 mins on a 4 v 4 with shit goaltending and defenseive play. Still leafs should have lost this in 5



We choked 5 of the 8 options

To your credit, you're not denying it for several years. But this idea of blaming the Leafs' game 7 choke on the Bruins' games 5-6 choke is some serious mental contortion.

For me it seems like they choke cause of the drop off in play from their stars

It's tough to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory harder than they did in 2021. If i cheered for the Leafs it definitely would have been the darkest moment for me.

 

[Albatros]

They had no business losing in '21, other than that nothing.

 

[GoldenSeal]

Every team has choked at some point.

5/8 of those series
17, 18, 19, 21, 22

2017 definitely wasn’t a choke. Washington was the President’s Trophy winner and the Leafs got the final wildcard spot. Matthews (19 years old), Marner (19 years old) and Nylander (20 years old) were all rookies. Washington won the series in six games, with all of them being one goal games and five of them going to overtime. If anything, Toronto performed better than expected in that particular series.
