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

[JL17]

91s stat sheet looks good but if he’s not within 15ft of the net he hasn’t looked very good.

 

[Al14]

Man this place is embarassing when they arent dominating.

So losing to the Habs is acceptable to you???

 

[Mr_Fun]

Disagree Leafs Habs ganes have always been a crap shoot they always elevate against us and there are many examples of teams pushing other teams regardless of standings. I am not concerned about this one at all. next.

 

[stickty111]

just like the leafs effort...

I mean if the fans are going to act like this after a loss in January, I'm not sure fans deserve a better team.
Whats more upsetting is fans who I trust to not get irrational, are part of it.

 

[rocketman588]

imagine losing to the worst team to ever make the playoffs in any professional sport after being up 3 to 1 in the series.

should have just relocated the franchise at that point.

To be fair they were the 24 seed the previous year and beat the pens so not the worst team of all time to make the playoffs

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Don't call it a comeback, I've been here for years...

GDT: - Game #47 Jan 21st Toronto at Montreal.

Not sure if this is a blowout or a trap game?

That 13-1 Leafs prediction in the Prediction Game thread must have been bulletin board fodder in the Habs dressing room!

The last laugh is on our Leafs!!!

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Brutal.

Poor coaching by Keefe.

losing to a Rival team..... who cares if its January, this team has earned no Respect, win in the playoffs than maybe, you dont think the fans actually want to win, what is wrong with garbage posts like this.... this team has no merit to stand on.... what a horrible take. again fans of this team want to win, been waiting a long time...

Yes let's blame the fans

Having expectations of beating AHL quality teams is unacceptable

At least we gave up 2 points to a team trying to lose and "ruined their tank"

Next level moral victory

Not sure I'd say that's "pretty shit"

It seems to be really hard to not be a PPG player in the NHL these days.

Especially if you're making north of 8.5 mil.

 

[PromisedLand]

The leafs don’t have depth.
And they won’t as long as they have to carry Tavares’ contract .
So there is no hope until possibly 2015-2016

I call dibs on the "DeLorean"

 

[Peace Frog]

Brutal game, this team is so incredibly soft and lacks grit it's unreal. McMann and Samsonov are the only two that showed any grit and heart. The rest of the team should be completely ashamed with how they played tonight.

I think Gio should be added to the grit and heart group.

So if you know the opposition is going to elevate their game even though they're not very talented and riddled with injuries shouldn't you be ready to squash them with your significantly superior line up?

Nah, that would take character.

That loss means we never gained any more ground seperating ourselves from Tampa.

I dunno bout you but at some point for our team to gain cofidence, we have to be able to win a game THAT means something.

This game meant something for our opponent. Think about that?

The problem with this team is they think they can brush it off....sounds kinda familar right?

If we give up home ice to Tampa we can make more excuses and keep the group together another year.

That's the end goal for some

Wanting to win, and deserving to win are different things. Losing to rival teams doesn't allow this kind of reaction.

so blaming the fans is ok? I mean this is a total loser mentality, Fans can react however they want no?, I mean this team has not won a playoff round since 2004, they keep playing down to their opponent, I see why they are mad, you simply don't get it, its been the same for awhile now.... blaming the fans is the worst take ive ever heard, what do they deserve than tell me?

Tampa lost in regulaion. We lost in OT. We got seperation by a point so your comment is not true.

 

[Leaffan1991]

We definitely need a mean D man in the backend that can actually clear the front of the net or protect the damn goalie. This team is sooo soft letting them take run and after run at the goalie.

 

[Scion]

If every team underperformed against weak teams, the weak teams would be at the top of the standings.

And if the Leafs lost every game against weak teams they wouldn't be in the tip 5 of the league standings..

so blaming the fans is ok? I mean t

Where did i blame the fans? Im certainly commenting on how sad it is this place cant a January OTL, but it couldnt handle a bad start vs. wpg

I was not quoting you? unless you and stickty111 are the same poster? hrmmm

Maybe they shouldn't act like this after a loss. People need to stop being miserable. Why bother watching? Just check in during the 1st round.
