Post-Game Talk: Leafs fold quicker than a cheap lawn chair, lose 6-2

[ULF_55]

Yuck. Imagine watching that and coming to the conclusion that the Leafs were the better team ?

Aston-Resse and Anderson were plus for the night.

Should have played them 20 minutes and given the core the night off with Matthews.

Only 200+ posts after such an embarrassing loss. Seems even the non-believers and trolls are waiting for game #83.

Based on that game, Leafs should just forfeit.

Great night to solidify a trade list.

 

[Darcy Tucker]

I think this loss clearly indicates the need to trade for a Timo Meier level player. Sooner the better.

I don’t like Dubas and Shanny, but this team should have success in the playoffs this year, unless the goaltending takes a dump. No surprise Murray keeps getting injured. I would be shocked if they didn’t make a run, and I’ve always bashed this core

Looks like the Holmberg Experiment is over:

Good thing I missed this game. Woulda pissed me off.

 

[Canadian Finn]

This is why Boston and Montreal have a way better home atmosphere

no kidding
the leafs are boring as f***

Wasn't as bad as posters are making it. We had our chances, Ottawa capitalized on theirs and we weren't on our A game for sure. The last minute sub of Murray to Samsonov I feel was the dagger, sadly.

we were worse than the posters are making it.

it was a pathetic game.

Looks like the Holmberg Experiment is over:

As long as he knows he isn't permitted to shoot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If he has a breakaway, he's to dump it in the corner and go off.

After the montreal series most of the fanbase was angry that nothing was done; then after the bolts series most of the fanbase was absolutely disgusted with the management in terms of how they held the press conference and how they talked about what had transpired and what the future held.

I think quite a few of the people are just waiting to run out the clock to see some new direction for this team

 

[therealkoho]

Didn't see the game, a problem with the site I use. Questions: I read that Holmberg was going to play 2C, did he, and how did he look? Also, how much was the poor D (according to some here) a product of a bad night, or were the Fs less than supportive in the Zone?

It didn't appear there was much cohesion at all whether between the F's and D's, the F's by themselves or the D pairs or the G with anybody. The Leafs got caved in by the Senators and didn't seem to know what to do about it, it was like they were all looking at each other waiting, wishing and hoping for someone to hit back.

but really it was all Holl's fault

or the loss in Game #89

-Unusual night for a home game
-National broadcast of a "Special" Hockey Night in Canada
-Weaker divisional opponent that like to beat us

I thought the game went pretty much as you would expect if you've been paying attention.

​

well this must've been the "special" version of the Maple Leafs

Nah, it wasn't the least bit out of the ordinary. This version shows up far too often.

Good player, yes. In spite of that, this was easily a case of too much, too soon.

 

[Duffman955]

One of dem days

Shit do be like that

 

[PromisedLand]

didn't know this. Congrats I guess for the 1000th NHL game in advance JT

 

[notDatsyuk]

I managed to watch about 10 minutes before those awful uniforms made me turn it off.

Looks like I didn't miss much.

I can usually find the good in anything. All I can think of is that if we play this badly the next time we wear them, maybe management will deem them cursed and burn them all.

(The sweaters, not the players.)

 

[Racer88]

I watched parts of the 1st., few parts of the 2nd. (doing household chores) and had recorded it.

Finished chores in the 2nd. watched a few minutes and had an injury so I had to stop watching.
I took a fork off the lower lip so couldn't face the rest of the onslaught.
Turned to Netflix for R&R with B movies.

Ottawa has beat Boston, Buffalo, Washington, Pittsburgh, New York Islanders, Toronto.

Are you related to Murray by chance…….lol

 

[JT AM da real deal]

Well lets hope this afternoon is better folks .. Friday night was disgusting effort .. worst I have seen this year .. why did Rielly and Sandin and Holl even bother to lace em up .. maybe worst 3 games each has played .. Rielly and Sandin especailly if they play like that again I am gonna start calling them rovers not D men
