Very sloppy night. I'll write it off to back-to-back nights.

Turnovers, turnovers, turnovers. Everyone was guilty of this, but worst offenders imo were Gunnarsson, Franson, and Grabovski (the guy has to stop fn around with the puck trying to beat 2-3 guys 2 feet outside our blue line).

The Kessel line needs board/net presence big time. Huge oversight by Carlyle.

Both goalies were meh. Wouldn't have made much difference which one got the start.

Kostka needs to GTFO the PP unit. Constantly stopping the puck before shooting on cross ice passes is killing our PP. Kessel needs to stop wasting time passing to him.

Since it's impossible for the Leafs to merely have a bad game, expect to see the detractors out in force telling us how the team we saw in the other games wasn't the real team but this one was.

Man that was a pathetic game, no consistency to Toronto's game, Randy should rip them a new one, and for those saying it's back to back games they were tired. They are professional players and they should be able to handle it. losing 7-4 on home ice is unacceptable back to back games or not.

TAKE KOSTKA OUT OF THE PP! He's pissing me off. There is no reason he should be there ahead of Liles/Gardiner.

NO REASON AT ALL.

Classic Leaf game. Do well in the 1st, get ***** handed back in the 2nd and 3rd. :laugh:

Hey, at least Kadri and Frattin looked great. Kadri keeping up his scoring pace, nice to see. I want Komisarek back in. :laugh:

Guys, chill the **** out. We always lose to the Islanders, nothing special here. Back to back games. Scrivens screwed up 2 goals. Did we already forget how good Phaneuf looked the last 3 games? Chill out.

But yeah, take Kostka the **** OFF THE POWERPLAY. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, CARLYLE. TAKE HIM OFF. We know he's a good defenseman, stop showing him off and put him back where he belongs, on ES only.

Well if you wanted to make a case for needing a goaltender this game is it. If we don't care about missing the playoffs again than we're all set.

Annoying...Glad we're going back on the road. Can't stand watching games at ACC sometimes.

Excellent 1st.

Bad 2nd.

Disasterous 3rd.

Get Kostka off the 1st PP unit. He can't handle Kessel's gifts.

Get Franson back in the press box. Komisarek was much better.
