Post-Game Talk: Leafs Book Their Tickets for Game 7 [MOD WARNING in OP]

[BrannigansLaw]

After a brief heater the PP is not reverting to the norm - a liability that kills this team in the playoffs.

Missing on the 4 minute OT PP in Game 4 and now tonight's 0/3 including a big shorthanded goal.

Typical uninspiring play from the team in a big game... this is really concerning.

It was concerning 5 years ago. Now it’s just a waste of all our time.

 

[The Legend]

yea this one will end my fandom, can't do it anymore

The sad thing is I - and many others - said the exact same thing after Montreal.

It's five years later.

The truth is, we're not just cursed as a franchise, we're cursed to follow this team. Forever.

 

[IPS]

Meh, you guys stress too much. The Leafs will win this series.

Ain't what I'm talking about. Both games 4 and game 5 now you've proudly beat your chest how the Leafs are gonna step on the ice and dominate from the get go. Hasn't happened.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Body someone into the boards.

These guys are happy losing.

 

[fahad203]

Somehow William Nylander escapses criticisms

 

[TheBeastCoast]

If they lose this series I might legit check out on this team for a long time lol not even joking about that.

 

[Superstar]

What did these guys do with the extra day of rest? Clubbing?

 

[MK78]

WTF Leafs. What the actual F.

 

[daveleaf]

Same old leafs. Willy is dancing too much on the edges and Mathews SUCKS!! These guys are an embarrassment to the jersey. What are they, 1-15 in elimination games now? Get rid of Mathews, the guy is a no show in the playoffs.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

yea this one will end my fandom, can't do it anymore

If they lose this series and don't change the core I'm done watching until they do; won't watch another game until this era is over. I'll never change teams for any reason whatsoever but I'd take a break until they rebuild again.

Cross that heinous bridge if they get there, though. Still not over yet. It's still in their hands.

 

[TMLAM34]

What a joke. Even if this team makes it to round 2, Florida will just eat us alive.

 

[Raging Bull]

If they dont score early, they get into their own heads. Every elimination game.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Oh well. Maybe next game.
Didn’t like the non grade A chances they were regularly passing up on, opting for low percentage dangles and plays that went nowhere. Take what’s available.

 

[Confucius]

36 million, 3 guys, 5 playoff games, 3 goals and they want more. If it wasn’t for the 5 goals from the D we would be out already.

 

[rielledup]

Is there anyone here still delusional enough to push back against people like me who think that this team is the same and will probably get dummied by Florida even if they advance? This was obvious after game 3, where they went nip and tuck two games in a row to eke out a win in OT.

 

[PromisedLand]

Matthews-Marner duo is an absolute TRASH break them the F up

And in the summer let marner walk

This team needs a new look. And if we can't f***ing get it done when Matthews is up as UFA then just blow it the f*** up

Lost decade

P.S. f*** Shanahan and f*** Dubas. Will never forgive this 2 snakes ever in my life

 

[Racer88]

Not much to say about this game or this team. All that money spent on 4 losers to get shut out.
Simply pathetic players that deserve nothing but scorn from the fan base

 

[A1LeafNation]

Prepare for the April Choke job.

 

[Dragao6]

Just the WORST sport team I know in all sports
It’s INSANE what they’re doing with this group. Where the Hell is SHANAHAN?

 

[Woodman19]

Somehow William Nylander escapses criticisms

When you cherry pick and get the one big scoring chance it means you played amazing no matter what else happens

 

[BertCorbeau]

Alright Berube .. you need to wake this team the f*** up for game 6. You need to get them to start on time and you need to get them to put a full 60 effort it.

 

[The Legend]

Shutout at home is wild

Is it? Was it wild when they laid an egg at home with a chance to close out Boston? Montreal (twice)? Columbus? Tampa?
We are who we are.

 

[Suntouchable13]

I'd consider Woll next game. Bring in a fresh goalie, maybe he can steal one in Ottawa?

 

[Superstar]

Just wanna give a big 'ol middle finger to the delusional defenders of this core. This is the team that you people deserve. I hope you enjoy another year watching the same sequel(s).

Some people are still defending Marner's $14 million asks, lol

 

[mclaren55]

Thank goodness my parents and sister are coming in from out of town so I won’t be able to watch Thursday's game.
