Post-Game Talk: Leafs complete their annual October punking by LA

[ACC1224]

Expected result, a little more effort would have been nice though.

 

[Byron Bitz]

What a shit game, bag skate then and sit Domi for a game or two.

 

[RunItBackAgain]

At least this happened.

Wow they really gifted him that second assist. Good on him though.

 

[Leaffan1991]

Reeves doesn't work on this non physical line.
Where he thrived was on a physical line in Vegas.
Our fourth line needs like a Clutterbuck and Cizikas. Lafferty would've done fine on our fourth.

 

[Mr_Fun]

Listless loss. Regroup strong against Beantown and nobody will really care about this one.

 

[PromisedLand]

The Leafs should be embarassed. Thoroughly outworked all night.

All of the new additions have been non-factors at best, and complete tire fires (Klingberg) at worst.

Marner better wake up in November, because he has been awful.

Redeem yourselves next game.

This is my biggest problem with this team

Winning and Losing is part of the game sometimes it doesn't go your way. This team never outworks opposition. It hardly happens. They never start on time either.

Its like they are playing in beer league and are not professionals making millions.

It pisses me off

He has never thrived...

Matthews has been pretty shit since game 2

6 in 2 —> 10 in 9
4 in past 7 seems playoffs have come early

Marner playing in a way where I wouldn’t even want to sign him

Nylander probably had his worst game, Tavares had the goal but was pretty awful too

Woll had a meh game, should’ve stopped one of the 4 but this is his second loss and both times we scored 1 goal

Matthews seems to be settling into his 2022-23 pattern of brief flashes of brilliance, doing a lot of good little things that don't really build momentum to a consistent breakthrough and then fizzles out into a lot of average playing He's looking off shots, timing looks off, the skating and power is there sometimes and then its energy saver mode at other times.

Domi took a dumb penalty earlier doing something like this but when it’s 4-1 and the Leafs looked as listless as they did I don’t mind this. At least someone showed a pulse.

oh wow you can name a player on your hockey team!!!! too bad you dont know how to post on your own board!

 

[ClarkSittler]

Hello darkness my old friend...

 

[RunItBackAgain]

For doing... anything? If everyone on the team cared he wouldn't have had to do what he did.

He did it when the game was over... he showed nothing before.

It'd be nice if he showed a pulse before minute 58.

 

[Teeder Keon]

Booooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo….

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Coaching staff:
"We are struggling to generate anything 5v5, what can we do?"

Keefe:
"Get me Jarnkrok immediately"

Bingo. When they beat Boston on Thursday, no one will remember this game.

 

[LaPlante94]

1st line looking pretty good eh

 

[Srsly]

Uhhh…good for Nylander…I guess. Moving on.

This era of the Leafs aren't really built to outwork anybody though. The project has always been about outskilling the opposition, overwhelm with talent and just take away their appetite to compete on any given night. That's why decisive wins feel like parties and loses feel like they got an F on an exam.

Mitchy please think of your next contract!!

He might flip the pen to sign over the glass

 

[VILARGOD]

;D gg

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Not much life in the last two home games. They've kinda sucked at home dating back to the playoffs

 

[BallardEra]

Hopefully Reaves is pissed off and changes the music in the dressing room to send a message.

 

[Stephen]

Coaching... I'm leaning more towards that more and more.

Look at our breakouts vs LA
Reminds me of Florida last year.

They are throwing coordinated lines, and we are still just winging it.

Marner is in a rut also
Road trip excuse is only good for so long...

The constant experimenting doesn't work. At some point Keefe needs to stop looking for that random magical combination out of all the blendering and just build some stable line combinations and pairing, give these guys consistent marching orders, metrics and have some stability and cohesion. Even he's got to see that the common thread of all this mad scientist stuff is everything gets scrapped after 1 day, 1 shift, 1 game.

 

[MoreMogilny]

Domi really can be an idiot.

What do we do with the guy?

Let’s stick him next to Matthews and Marner. I don’t want him carrying the puck ever.

Problem is he cannot anticipate play at all. He never goes to the right spot.

Our lineup is a mess and I don’t think Keefe knows what to do with it.

Also our D group is abysmal.
