Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose in Game 7. Again.

[GoonieFace]

Dubas and Shanghai better be gone. This core
Need some exploding

 

[HolyCrap]

Meh. I knew after game 6 with the officiating then this game we had to beat Tampa and Bettman. That’s a tough task. Just gotta enjoy the regular season with Mathews before he leaves.

 

[ShaneFalco]

I ain't even mad. Fully expected this.

Same just numb from years prior

 

[LokiDog]

Does Keefe even give a post game presser or just start applying for new jobs?

 

[Srsly]

• Turtling in Game 6 in the 3rd period
• No adjustments on PP
• Liljegren out for the braindead Holl
• Did not break Matthews-Marner even they did not have anything going offensively
• Did not stack a line down a goal
• Lost to Tampa with Point out injured
• 50% of cap wasted on 4 players no offense
• NOT SHOWING UP in Games 2 and Game 4

Can't make this shit up. Dubas and Keefe are GARBGE! Period!

In retrospect it feels like it would have been a no brainer to put Marner back with Tavares given known chemistry and Tavares picking it up game five onward.

 

[Suntouchable13]

So 3rd time they blow a 3-2 series lead under Dubas watch, how does he keep his job?

 

[ruaware41]

Are we even surprised? Honestly I’m not even mad. It was what we should have expected. Boys tried hard and got f***ed hard by the refs in game 6

 

[Primary Assist]

Nick Paul has more game 7 goals than Matthews.

The entire freaking team needs to go. Start from scratch. This core has proven time and time again they are a regular season team that can't convert in the playoffs. Trade the entire roster and start it over again

 

[definedMF]

Matthews, Marner, Nylander did not show up.

They just don't have it. It's over.

 

[MattySnipes]

Joke ass league. Pathetic officials 3rd rate league.

Sorry Leafs, y'all never had a chance against this bias joke.

Enjoy the successful season we'll get em next year. Whatever.

 

[JKG33]

Well the Kyle Dubas fan club has a big helping of crow to eat

 

[Taluss]

Im sorry Leaf’s fans. You guys deserved this one.

Ignore the chirps from the other fanbases and keep your heads high. Ik it sucks but this is the back to back champs you lost to.

Stay strong, gl going forward

 

[Raym11]

Matthews throwing the body around all series was a positive note.

Questionable plays by him at the end there, but the pass from Rielly handcuffed him.

Least Leaf-Like game 7 out of all the failures. I think there's a lot of positives to take from this series for once.


Looking forward to a big trade, or management shift however. This is not a "run it back" loss, and i would legitimately just give trotz a bag of money to get him onto the coaching staff somehow

 

[Teflon Sega]

Should we consider trading Auston?? I’m not sure if he has the “it” factor that this team desperately needs to get over the hump. Might be worth to pick up extra assets by blowing this thing up. Let me know what you think

 

[BertCorbeau]

Combination of bad luck, bad reffing, and a core that just can quite get it done.

Unfortunately you will be very, very disappointed I think

 

[Acetylene]

Oof. Thought they’d at least go for it.

 

[Stephen]

Ross Colton did a little hush sign to the crowd. I put the curse on him.

 

[Maplebeasts]

Come on down Barry Trotz. I'm done with Keefe.

 

[cookie]

Well, that opens up my summer.

 

[wingman75]

Dude, stop making excuses.

This isn’t the “Try hard” league.

Exactly. Especially at this stage of the core.
The lessons have been learned, they just are not winners. Blow the f***ing thing up for f*** sakes and put this shit show out of its misery.

 

[Aashir]

Please trade nylander or marner

Do it for a f***ing 7th round pick

 

[killer1980]

Say whatever you want, fire all those f***in assholes. They're no better than all the other losers.

 

[kk87]

Usually we just shrivel up and disappear in elimination games. Not the case this year. Officiating decides both Game 6 and Game 7. f***ing unbelievable.

 

[Lightsol]

Really guys, it's nothing to be too upset about. They literally decided they can just call back goals they didn't want the Leafs to score tonight. It's a circus, no need to get up in arms about it.

I KNEW, when the refs did that, that it would come down to that f***ing goal. I'm sure the story is going to be "Cup Champs are better!", but the story really ought to be that the Cup Champs needed the refs to help them win 3 out of 4 games..
