Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose 3-2 in OT

[francis246]

I think Dubas has to take some heat, it’s obvious acquiring a veteran LD was important. Losing Muzzin hurt us

 

[123offtheglass]

If the Leafs had played like they did during OT the whole game it would have been an easy win

The reason I'm optimistic about game 7^, they'll now be desperate like the Habs have been; also can see vets like Jumbo & especially Spezza stepping up.

 

[mktml]

This team is absolutely nowhere near a Stanley cup

 

[Gallagbi]

Bogo was right at his release. Lots of time to react. If he's in position, he has it.

I'd like to see a replay from behind, but it didn't look good. He's deep from the turnover and never really set because of it

 

[robertmac43]

Going to be tough running Sandin and Dermott next game with no Muzzin

 

[CelticDruid]

We are done guys.

Seriously. This is not a winning team.

Spezza brings more than Matthews and Marner combined.

This isn’t the formula.

Habs in 7. This pathetic excuse for a team once again needs to be ripped apart.

Dubas has gutted this team from 3 years ago, it's so Leafy.

 

[Steven1562]

Another game 7 loss and you have to ask. Where do we go with this core?

 

[The Best Leafs Ever]

Is this team really garbage or they are pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger? LMAO

 

[Aashir]

Get bent. It was an unlucky bounce off Bogosian's shin pad.

So make the save? Tipped shots are saveable are they not? He saves that shot 9/10, he choked there, we needed a save no matter what happened there. We dominated overtime and price made huge save after huge save and campbell let’s in the 3rd shot he faces??

 

[dubey]

Going to be tough running Sandin and Dermott next game with no Muzzin

lol

Big yikes. I wonder if Hutton comes in. What a mess

 

[WatchOut]

matthews and marner with 30 mins of ice time, we went from babcock playing his favourites too much and not M&M enough, too Keefe playing them too much. Even when they are playing like dog shit.

 

[BrannigansLaw]

Not watching Game 7. Maybe that will change the narrative but let’s be honest, they’re going to lose.

 

[LastOne2100]

The contract sagas of Matthews/Marner/Nylander were the signals this team is not going to win. Bettman sees this team as little more than a piggy bank, so they made sure to cash in. Homegrown talent like Marner can f*** right off.

The way to win in this NHL is to have players who want to play for you and take discounts to win.

Boston, Tampa, Colorado - the top teams in the league all have players who took team favorable contracts.

Really - that to me, was the biggest indicator that this core will never win.

 

[robertmac43]

Also WTF was that challenge.... stupid move by the coaching staff there.

 

[ashs]

Long time leaf fan, I don't watch the playoffs when we get eliminated. If we lose the next game I'm done. Gonna move on to a new sport. Wife's been wanting me to get rid of my jersey collection(60) for years that will be gone also. Getting time to move on.

 

[mcleex]

I'm literally stewing in my anger right now

 

[OppositeLocK]

I'm sorry, but that was the most obvious Coach's Challenge I've ever seen. Toffoli was absolutely interfering with both Brodie AND Campbell, and of course the NHL takes less than 20 seconds to decide that it's good. Contrast with the 8 minutes they spent on the Game 3 goal with Thornton's stick. Anyone doubt they'd already decided to call this one a goal before they even looked upstairs?

Campbell gave up on the play. He didn't try to get back. If he did he could have made it that Tofolli interfered with him.

 

[Leafy Undergrowth]

And another blank scoresheet for our 22 million dynamic duo.

 

[A1LeafNation]

Doesn't even matter if we win Monday. Jets are sitting on a 4-0 sweep and well rested.

Leafs blew their load this year with these past two games.

 

[CelticDruid]

2 winning goals, in last 2 games...

1) Bogosian gives it away.

2) Off Bogosian's shin pad past Campbell.

I HATE Bogosian.

Nothing to do with Bogosian that was all Dermott.

 

[CapspaceKiller]

How about Spezza, seems like the only one with heart on this team.

Yeah, he's been solid. Had a bad game 1, but he's overall a good bottom 6 forward

 

[hamzarocks]

Campbell had a straight ass game like its up not for argument

Andersen is called ass for game 6 and 7 vs Boston in 2019 and right fully so

That's what Campbell had tonight. He blew it

 

[ItalianLeaf]

Yes, most realistic fans can see it from miles away.

Can't wait for those blowhards to show up to tell us "we are going to win."

It is not happening with this core.

Yea.. Im beginning to think this team hates the number 4 like most Chinese people. For our Chinese folk around here, correct me if I am wrong but I heard the number 4 means/symbolize “die”.

 

[Ray Mercer]

You still got to like Toronto’s chances in game 7. They absolutely dominated that overtime period. More often than not you will be rewarded for that effort.

 

[LastOne2100]

Also WTF was that challenge.... stupid move by the coaching staff there.

The challenge was fine. Montreal's PP is garbage.

Marner's boneheaded penalty was the stupid, inexcusable play when he wasn't even pressured.
