Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose 7-3

[egd27]

You mean Kampf torpedo'ing potential comeback with his moronic decision?

You thought the Kampf penalty call was completely justified?

 

[PromisedLand]

I'd rather be a bottom feeder than watch this trash every year in the playoffs

i feel your pain there is no excitement for the draft either because there is nothing in the cupboard left or any 'stars' in the minors to look forward to for the next season.

Dubas really has pissed a lot of people (me included)

 

[Dekes For Days]

It's been provided.

It hasn't been provided. You replied to my post and said you had this evidence that showed it was clearly a goal, and then when asked to provide this evidence to everybody, you refuse. It's pretty obvious you've got nothing.

 

[AllHeartNoSkill]

I agree. Unfortunately, there are a few arguing with that. Somehow.

Further to that, I find I tough to believe that from behind the puck, the ref also saw it fully cross the line pinned up against the twine/post.

 

[IPS]

Not the entire thing, just the potential comeback once they seemed to gain some momentum.

Well the potential comeback was kind of at its peak with 3-2 and Bunting didn't have a f***ing thing to do with any of that. But you really want it to be Bunting's fault so don't let it stop you.

 

[pcruz]

It is interesting how Nylander got racked over the coals last year for backing out on a physical encounter in the corner that while a bad look....was mostly meaningless. Meanwhile 6'3 Justin Holl gives Perry a stick wave and a pass to the front of the net and it is a goal lol

Not everyone.

Go back to the first games of the season and I've been saying this since then.

Holl has be putrid this season with regards to making other players pay a price for attacking his net.

Bring Back Babcock!

It's still year 8 of his 8-year deal, isn't it?

you all know this is a lie and the ROR line started, right?

Blindly liking a post cause it fits the narrative you want.

Keefe did some things wrong but some posters want to blame him for literally everything.

Ok, if you don't believe they would be able to overcome a 4-2 deficit with 25 mins left in the game and at least get it to OT that's certainly your prerogative.

 

[Hockey 4 Life]

I'd go

Jarnkrok. Matthews. Nylander
Knies. O'Reilly. Marner
Kerfoot. Tavares. Acciari
Bunting. Kampf. Lafferty

McCabe. Liljegren
Reilly. Brodie
Gio. Schenn

Samsonov
Woll

Felt like they called the reaction rather than what they saw

I hope they fire Keefe right now and bring in anyone they can. The new guy would still have time to turn this around.

Not with the way that way it was trending. Possible but highly improbable. Our chance was at 3-2, getting 4 by Vasi was already a huge task but 5 was asking too much IMO, that's why that terribly soft call on Kampf pissed me off something fierce.

 

[Nineteen67]

That’s a bit disingenuous, the 2nd goal was partly on Marner for the flip pass, they brought the puck right in and scored, and he and his linemates were in a change

That line wasn’t awful, but they definitely weren’t “fine”. They, like the other lines, did squat when the game was in reach. They scored when it was 7-2. They should come out with much more urgency and need to finish more

How many turn overs did Marner have?

I thought ROR started until i listened to the radio this morning.

 

[Aashir]

How many turn overs did Marner have?

Too many to count

He made 4 flip passes that were all turnovers. He got rubbed off the puck pretty easily too. He had a bad game, he also had 3 points. It doesn’t change the fact that he had a bad game

 

[Notsince67]

They aren’t, but they were part of the problem, like everything else. Goaltending, special teams, big guys, depth guys, coaching. Everything had its fair share of blame

Most of life's problems are multivariate and multivariate issues are sometimes co dependant. Pragmatism dictates you tackle it as a paretto distribution where 20% of the issues add up to 80% of the impact. Finding fault in everything is easy if you look hard enough. The low hanging fruit in that game would be to limit the causes of 7 goals. An all star team can't outscore that.

 

[PROUD PAPA]

There's no point in looking at individuals to blame for that debacle.
Just post the starting roster and put an asterisk beside Acciari's name.

 

[Notsince67]

Going from bad (JT and Willy on the same line) to worse (JT centering Willy).

I see a problem too

 

[ToneDog]

 

[Fogelhund]

Meltdown is reasonable tonight, IMO

Having a meltdown after seven games in the season, or one game in the playoffs, is equally short sighted, and premature. How did all that panic after seven games look, by the end of the season? Patience...

 

[ACC1224]

It's inconclusive which is why it was a goal.

 

[keonsbitterness]

It was, assuming coaches get their entire salaries paid during the regular season like the players.

well get him in here then! Fortune favours the bold!

 

[TMLegend]

Yes. Exactly. Call on the ice stands if there isn't enough evidence to overturn it. Surprised how many don't realize this.
