Post-Game Talk: Leafs Eliminated.

[mikeyz]

f*** off. Rielly wasn't just our best player, he was one of the best players in the playoffs so far. If any of the big 3 were half as good as Rielly, we'd already be figuring out our game plan for Carolina.

He was great, but, him being great and wanting the core broken up aren’t mutually exclusive. And besides, where did I say I wanted Rielly gone?

It just pisses me off that not even half an hour after they lost, this f***ing guy is crying like a little bitch because the band might be broken up.

But Mo.. these guys don't give a shit like you do

 

[Enniskillen]

Thank you guys for making this season fun. Liked most of your posts except for dubas fanboys. Matthews and Marner should be traded asap.

 

[robertmac43]

Ok what about run it back but with Joel Quenneville?

That guy should never see the league again.

To be honest I thought we looked the best last season against Tampa from game to game. We lost a bit of cohesiveness as a unit after the trades this year. I think we could comeback better next season with a hopefully healthy Matthews, Knies improving, Woll improving and a better coach.

It will still have the same ending. Matthews and Marner were no shows in 2 of the 3 elimination games this series. IMO I think they are more complimentary players, not guys that are your leaders.

living with rats might help them learn a thing or two by osmosis

There are a lot more rats in Toronto.

Can’t believe we didn’t injure anyone and you had Gudas screaming in Woll’s face after the game and Tkachuk gloating to the media about Leafs fans.

Need lunatics, absolute psychos, on this team.

That’s the part that truly bothers me the most.

Can’t bother myself to listen to the Panthers interviews but what did Tkachuk say?

 

[robertmac43]

I just don't get it.... Nothing here?

 

[Mopar]

Shanahan, Dubas and Keefe out please. They've had their chance. The "Shanaplan" has failed. Time to move on.

Hire some really good hockey people. Preferably ex-Leafs that love this team. Let them go to work on this. We have some very good assets that can be exchanged for players that are a better fit here.

gudas is a piece of shit for that. Idk why someone didn’t confront him for that

And THIS right here is the number one problem with the core of this team. They would rather lose playoff games then lose each other as teammates. This is such a loser mentality

You get thats not the choice right? The better they do the more likely they are to stay together.

 

[Gary Nylund]

Florida didn't make excuses. They beat both 1st and 2nd place Atlantic teams. Their path was tougher than we ever faced. "tough path" is not an excuse. Sick of these less talented teams advancing. Sick of waiting for this "core" to do something.

Calm down. All I said was that the path in 2021 was easier, and it was. That's not an excuse, it's a fact.

Course not

The problem is the stupid media person that asked the stupid question.

Referenced the “We want Florida” chants in two separate post-game interviews.

Guy had 0 goals and was a non-factor and gets to gloat like that. Makes me sick.

 

[seventieslord]

He is in an abusive relationship and can't accept or admit that a number of people are tanking his chances of ever winning a cup.

 

[wingman75]

Q is just another Babcock at this point. If you run it back with same core, what makes anyone think they will respond to him and play better? I am on board with Q, but we also need major personnel changes.

I don't mean Q, I mean just in general... the thought of running back the core with a different, more experienced coach... I think though I agree with you (and me), that we need a core change.

 

[Gallagbi]

Gotta say, im really surprised we didnt get a PP in the third after that highly questionable no goal and in OT after the delay call and some brutal icings

 

[IPS]

Old news now. I find it strange how little this fanbase cares about being blatantly screwed by officiating.

 

[NastyKnies]

keep Willy please

 

[Gabriel426]

This would have been fine if this was 2019. It's 2023 and we have 1 series win, it's not good enough.

Ofcourse it is not good enough.
It was always ECF or bust for me.

What can we do?
Good thing, no more Holl, Kerfoot and Keefe
Hopefully, they resign ROR, Schenn and Acciari.
Knies and Robbie(he build more muscle mass) will be ready by playoffs.
JT is the big question.
AM needs to be more clutch.
MM needs to focus on winning instead of thinking what if I lose and let that get into his head.

 

[Guided by Veseys]

Last thing I feel like posting into the void for this season: it’s pretty pathetic but honestly thank god this core finally won a round. I was thinking it wouldn’t happen and it was a great night when they finally did. Nothing can take that away.

Lmao at referencing a chant by like 20 young fans after you beat the Leafs. Tool.

I thought we for sure would get one.... its funny Florida was the most penalized team in the Regular season, and we barely seen a man advantage this whole series.... not going to blame the reffing, but this league Bias against the leafs is truly amazing

Id take Kerf back at the right price.
