Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose 4-2

I don't know if there is anything to make me believe that the playoff results will be any different this year.
Add 30 goals from Matthews and they’re a different team but they still lose in the first round because they can’t score more than two goals in the playoffs.
In other years, I feel like there was always at least a kernel of hope for a deep run. This year, I have zero belief that this group has what it takes to win even one round.
For f*** sakes, if the guy is injured put him on the long term IR.
There's so much wrong.
Berube has no offensive system. There has to be a way to play strong defensively without neutering everything offensively.
Marner is horrible. Nylander is probably one of the worst perpetrators of ineffective powerplay play on this team. There's no attack, no speed, just slow and lazy telegraphed passes.
Matthews can't skate or shoot, he should be sitting until the playoffs even if we end up in a wild card. Rielly is somehow close to being our worst D. We have no futures so we'll be stuck in mediocrity for another decade after this Era fails.

Willy finally get it as to how its freakin' gets done!
To me it looks like he’s got a hand or wrist injury too. He’s mishandling the puck and couldn’t even keep his upper hand on the stick in front of the net in the last few minutes. His shot is garbage now too.

Watch what happens in the playoffs, my friend.
Everyone proclaiming “the season is over, it’s hopeless” in this thread will be the exact same ones in the playoffs exulting how “we” took out Tampa and how this is “our” year.
I’ve never see such a manic depressive fan base as the Leafs fan base. From the highest of highs to the depths of despair, and then repeat.
I wouldn't bet on Ullmark for my life.
When he said it's up to the room to decide. It's essentially saying I can't get them going by default. Coach is there to get them going and keep them playing the right way.
Look the only internal competition going on in that room is who can get paid the most.
Matthews looks as excited to be here as a hostage is to be in the presence of his captor.
Marner is not wanted on the team right now. They asked him to waive and he bullied his way by refusing. That's gotta be an issue and everyone knows.
I think it would be different but ultimately I’m going off what I think and your going off of what we know
umm... when the teams check hard without time and space well there is hardly anything this core has shown that they can do to breakthrough its been 7+ years btw...
He wasn’t awful but I think he would be better with Willy his line mates are slow a lot of times Hes the only one in the play they can’t keep up
Hard to blame them either way. No Cup since 1967 and haven’t even been to the Finals either.
Can’t help but include someone who shouldn’t be included huh
Laughton sucks man. Straight up. Fringe 4th liner.
He should be bought out. Kampf is a more effective player. I know what this org is going to do, because they spent so much on Laughton they will force feed him throughout the line up to no avail. He should be in the press box or in the minors, or better yet back in Philly.
Fire the pro scout that put him on the radar. Seriously fire that guy. He should lose his job over that pickup.
Well if your a leafs fan then you know
When a fanbase is completely traumatized it’s not easy
We have just seen this too many times!! Regularly
Nah, he was awful, especially defensively.
Really struggled to exit the zone, lost a ton of board battles, couldn't read the situation.
That's a little unusual for him, but I can see why he didn't play alot, especially when Domi was going decently
