Post-Game Talk: Leafs lose 4-2

[rocketman588]

7th in the division.

It's about to be Bedard season boyzzzzzz

 

[Leaf4Life79]

Two words...... DOG SHIT!

 

[Aashir]

At what point do you evaluate if this core is worth it

Matthews showing that drafting a “generational” talent means Jack shit

 

[2 Slick]

Oh no, I better not say anything negative about my favourite team or I will be labelled as negative. They suck tonight, they’ve sucked all season, the end.

The only player I feel sorry for his maybe Samsonov, the rest of the team is dog shit.

 

[HolyCrap]

If they lose to the lowly Ducks tomorrow surely heads will roll right? Prob not but they should.

 

[Stand Witness]

Unacceptable! But what are you going to do about it?

Nothing!

 

[Gallagbi]

Interested to see what happens. This is the play thay gets your coach fired, but its also the play that shakes up your core

 

[BertCorbeau]

I mean last year, despite the slow start, they were at least solid defensively and just having some tough puck luck.

This year just looks sloppy and the stars aren't performing consistently enough.

Matthews has an Art Ross/Hart hangover, and Marner hasn't been much better. Nylander and Tavares have at least done something this year.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

At least last year you could tell things would turn around once Matthews and Marner started to gel. This year they have abysmal defense and extremely unreliable depth scoring

 

[Ianturnedbull]

Samsonov and Tavares played well.

Not much else.

This is not a very good team. They will play a little better than this as the season goes on, but they are not cup contenders.

 

[mikeyz]

Kallgren going tomorrow means that's going to be another automatic loss.

I hope they get booed out of Scotiabank area when they get back home.

Tavares is the only player that looks like he gives a shit out there right now

 

[BallardEra]

Don’t know what game you guys were watching but my hands are still clapping as I cheer the boys on.

 

[horner]

Same script as last yr but the big difference out defence is really bad.
Not built for the playoffs

 

[Voodoo Child]

Leafs are in huge trouble and Keefe might be as well

He seems like he’s good at speeches…

‘Alright boys it’s f***ing time to f***ing play, now get out there and f***ing make it f***ing happen, f***!’

But when it comes to actual coaching - the most important part of the job, I mean shit, he was outcoached by Dominique Ducharme for f***s sake!

 

[Bellefour20]

Rebuild 3.0 time?

Do we have any prospects looking to prove themselves who can be handed a cup winning contract?

 

[Man Bear Pig]

Justin Holl should stay off social media tonight. It's gonna be pinned on him, and he was bad, but this West Coast trip has been embarrassing. You'd never know Marner and Matthews are two of the highest paid players in the league.

 

[Nineteen67]

The players and the system are not working.

How long have they watched Sandin in the minors?

 

[Alamo Leafer]

This is a hard group to even like.

this

 

[New User Name]

This team is just not good enough, wasn't 4 years, 3 years ago, 2 years, last year and this year.

I really don't know what Dubas, Shanny and the rest of the brain trust see but it's just not built right.

I have a solution to start a REAL rebuild but most here would crucify me if I said it. LOL

 

[LeafsandSharksfan]

Just thrilled we didn’t move Muzzin, Sandin, or Hall in the off-season.

 

[Canadian Finn]

We'll get em next game boys

 

[Stonehands 1]

its the defence and coaching, get rid of the coaching

 

[trogdor]

I could be wrong on this, but this team is incapable of keeping things simple. I'm all for a cycle/puck-possession offense, but at some point, someone needs to drive to the center of the ice or find an open look from the point and score a dirty goal. They also turn the puck over in the worst spots possible, between Sandin holding the puck for too long with a forechecker right behind him, or when they do those dropback passes that get turned over when they enter the zone, which allows the other team to get a rush chance. I still have faith that this team will find a way out of this rut; I just don't think this team has the habits necessary for sustained success.

 

[Superstar]

Unacceptable! But what are you going to do about it?

Back up the brinks truck for Matthews and Marner again when they're UFAs?

 

[BrannigansLaw]

The ducks are 1-6-1 and have lost 7 straight. Surely a win will come in Anaheim.

Might be his last game as coach if they don’t.
