We generated one semi high danger scoring chance in the third. One. That's why we lost, not Kallgren. He's kept us in games which is all you can expect from a third strong goalie. We just don't have it this year.

They Fired Sheldon!
For the love of God Keefe give us:
Bunting-Matthews-Nylander
Robertson-Tavares-Marner
Engvall-Kampf-Jarnkrok
Malgin-Kerfoot-ZAR
Rielly-Liljegren
Sandin-Brodie
Giordano-Holl
Break up M&M and put the rest of the defensemen on their proper sides. Bottom six still isn't ideal but it won't be until this team makes some moves off the ice.

There’s just zero clutch playmaking or goal scoring from the big guns right now. They wanted the money they need to carry the offense.
Kallgren is not a good goalie but he’s not making 12 mill a year to carry the team.

Whelp, we deserved the L there. Weren’t absolutely terrible, but weren’t good either.
Change up the lines Keefe - separate Matthews and Marner. They’ve been underwhelming 5v5 all season, clearly time to try something new. I’d like to see:
Jarnkrok - Matthews - Nylander
Robertson - Tavares - Marner
Bunting - Kampf - Kerfoot
Malgin - Engvall - ZAR

That’s the three time cup winning sid Crosby Pittsburgh penguins and gosh didn’t we hang with them for a lot of the game! Just a super impressive effort by the heart and souls maple leafs. You’ll get them next time boys!

It really reminded me of Freddie and Jack
But this was a regular season game…I thought we were supposed to be safe

Marner is just a chaos machine out there. If there was an option to send him back to the London Knights for a couple of weeks I'd look into it.

Weak goal for the 3rd one, again I don’t expect much from someone that’s a AHL goalie playing above their weight class…
In saying that, I find troubling a majority of the games our big boys and the team look disinterested in playing. They look so pedestrian a majority of these games.

We have Kallgren in net right now.
But what I will say is that an upgrade on defense is needed sooner than later

That was a really frustrating game. Thought they played well at times but hardly anyone could handle a puck tonight. I thought the 4th line was good but rest were fumbling a lot. Pens were putting their sticks on everything but man we need a better strategy than shoot from far out. Oh well, regroup and hope they handle pucks better tomorrow.
Borje in the house HOF game and they couldnt even give an ounce of effort, f*** that....

- Why is Matthews not shooting? I don't remember the last time he had a clean wrist shot
- Split up Matthews/Marner for the love of God. The magic isn't there, stop forcing something that isn't working
- That third line we put together midway through the game was the most soft, vanilla collection of players in history. Engvall - Kerfoot - Jarnkrok. Lmao, what is that line going to do other than burn 30 seconds and accomplish nothing
- Robertson doesn't look very good
- As usual, in games like these the only big 4 player who looks good is Nylander
