Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose 2-1

[francis246]

Matthews looked uninterested out there tonight. Pathetic effort.

Ngl it seems very similar to Babcocks last year in Toronto. He does not like this style of play. Matthews has and wants to play off the rush.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Matthews hasn’t scored in 6 games now? I hope he f***ing fails at the tournament next week. If he tees off and comes up clutch for the Americans when he can never do the same for us I’ll lose my mind.

Nylander has to get his head on straight too. Missing chance after chance these past two games and has been making terrible decisions. Waaahhh he’s got 9 goals in 10 games? Who cares. What’ve you done for me lately? Get a breakaway the least he can do is get a f***ing shot off.

Bottom six needs to be completely reworked, again. I can’t stomach Robertson, Holmberg, and Domi out there anymore.

Yeah he was absolutely terrible in every way. Way to set the tone captain Matthew$

 

[shaner8989]

Lots of useless trash on this team

Domi
Kampf
Lorentz
Reaves
Pacioretty
Holmberg

Matthews marner Nylander and Tavares were in that group tonight too

Can’t win when you only have 2 forwards. Knies and McMann

 

[Suntouchable13]

Kampf, Lorentz, Robertson, Domi, Patio-ready, Holmberg, entire D-core. Giving you nothing. How can you win the Cup when you have so many players who are 0 offence players?

 

[Mr_Fun]

Matthews looked so awful it was unbelievable

Marner and Willy were right there saying hold my beer.

 

[Nineteen67]

2 week vacation, hope Domi is no where near this team when they return, what a horrible player

He’s playing himself into healthy scratch territory.

 

[Maple Leaf]

5 forward PP is a f***ING JOKE with a Muffins from the point from marner and he f***ing kills PPs with stupid passes all the f***ing time from the point

also f*** bettman for having this stupid f***ing 4 nations bullshit right in the middle of the season like whatever the f***ing point of this shit is

no to olympics but yes to the 4 nation stupid ass gimmick

Matthews looked uninterested out there tonight. Pathetic effort.

Yeah he basically sucked, but had a few looks from a shooting perspective and was passable defensively. He had a lot trouble handling the puck, bobbling it and from where I stood the main problem is he wasn't moving his feet so he was lunging for it, always rolling off the blade.

 

[ToneDog]

So let me get this straight. We score 6 in one game and look amazing without the greatest Leaf ever and 4 goals in two games with the greatest Leaf ever in the lineup and playing major minutes.

3 of 4

Take it and run.

 

[wingman75]

Tonight was Exhibit A Mitch Marner clown hockey. When that guy's head is not screwed on right it's just sub-NHL.

None of 34, 16, 88 or 91 played even average tonight. Our best forwards were 23 and 29 ffs.

Agree with you, as much as everyone hates it, Mitch drives this team's success. He's been way worse than he was tonight, but also did pretty much nothing to drive offence.

maybe the 4 nations will get him going? I am out of ideas lol

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

No Leafs didn't lose 2-1 tonight.

OEL and one ALONE lost the game.

HE lost it nobody else.

When you take an incredibly stupid penalty that you didn't need to take and it leads to the game winning goal you are SOLELY responsible for the loss.

That's what OEL did. HE lost the game because he took ANOTHER stupid penalty.

He takes a A LOT of those.

 

[thewave]

Shh. MC is going to bring in Carney Credits, so we like those tariffs, we just don’t like the other Tarriffs.

Shitshow what did we do. We just won the Olympics in 2010. FmL

 

[34]

Am I the only one who thought the leafs looked super slow tonight? It seems that the Canucks were 10 times faster than them in every aspect of the game.

Oh well, it is the Canucks Stanley Cup. Those f***ing losers will be missing the playoffs anyway.

 

[Evilhomer]

Nylander has to get his head on straight too. Missing chance after chance lately and has been making terrible decisions lately.

He had a hat trick literally four days ago.

 

[ToneDog]

Thank God we have Auston Matthews what an incredible leader and incredible goal scorer that guy is.

Natural born leader.

 

[Al14]

Typical Leafs, leaving Leafs Nation with a loss before an extended break.

Couldn't even manage a loser point.

Ducking losers!!!

 

[Nineteen67]

When they were going through the motions the Core were comfortable, when it picked up and Vancouver started skating they were out of their league again.

 

[keonsbitterness]

We were 2nd best most of the game. Lucky it was only 2-1.

 

[Gallagbi]

Honestly we're not generating anything other than rush chances. We just don't look very dangerous at all

Agree with you, as much as everyone hates it, Mitch drives this team's success. He's been way worse than he was tonight, but also did pretty much nothing to drive offence.

88 was the best, he was moving out there and had full command of the puck. Bobbled the breakaway but out of them all he was a tier above. But you're right, Holmberg and Knies were among our best and that's not the way to win.

Mitch looked like he was hallucinating out there, don't know if he was on the same reality plane as the puck or the game around him. He was on some kind of Magical Marner Tour all night.

Besides Domi who I expect more from the rest are 4th liners or worse. Some being asking to play top 6. Everyone talked about this great depth every year to start the season but it’s always the same story. They have no money for depth.
