I think people don't understand what effort means. The boys are skating tonight this is not an effort issue

 

[Stephen]

Can’t tell if the Hurricanes are trying to dress like the New Jersey Devils or Team Canada.

The boys in white aren't even winning any puck battles in their own zone. This is 100% an effort issue.

Neither of those teams can't hear you, they both have championships

 

[Mr_Fun]

Maybe we can catch Freddy nodding like the rest of us.

They are trying hard tonight for sure, they are just not as good a team as Carolina

Complete mismanagement by Keefe here with this young player … all that he has built up in a positive wave has come crashing down once more … you can’t put a player with his skill set in the bottom 6 with limited playing time and odd misfit players , it’s a waste of a spot that could and should go to other players .I’m pretty disappointed with Keefe and the coaching staff with this one .there was no need to single him out after his strong game then the next sub par one .

I agree with you 100%....I don;t think Keefe handles young players very well in general.

 

[Ianturnedbull]

I'm sleepy, but not as bad as most of Toronto.

 

[Cynical]

Play in Toronto and then fly all the way out to Carolina for another game next day. Schedule loss I guess? Not sure why the NHL does this.

 

[fahad203]

People forget we drafted Wendal Clarke as a defenceman

 

[DarkKnight]

This is exciting…said someone who’s never watched television before.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Let’s please stop vomiting this game time , B2B blah blah blah narrative , god it’s boring and stale and comes with a loser mentality .
It’s a fairly young team and the start of a season and a lot to play for and a “ opportunity “ to really turn things around .
I’m tired of this bull chip excuse all the time .
Top 5-7 teams find was to overcome
The effort isn’t here as it should be !

 

[TMLeafer]

A shot!

 

[Cleetus]

line shuffling!

 

[MagicalRazor]

Leafs got 6 shoots on goal half way through the game (30 mins) lol ….

Marner Tavares Robertson

Maybe. Maybe it's because they played less than 24 hours before and traveled and the Canes have been resting at home. Maybe it's one of those nights. Maybe the Leafs dominate the 2nd half of the game.

What I know tho is the team is trying.

 

[Mickey Marner]

First decent zone time of the period

 

[horner]

I have never seen us not skate .

 

[fahad203]

Jarvis will be a beauty in few years

 

[PromisedLand]

shot on goal baby wooooooooooooooo

 

[Burnie97]

Good idea to throw it at the net. Should be doing it a lot more.

 

[Mickey Marner]

That puck has to get out

 

[fahad203]

I have never seen us not skate .

Those are lot of negatives in one sentence. So we are doing well?

 

[Burnie97]

I don't mind seeing Jt with Marner and Matthews with Nylander.
