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

[ANDI P IS CUTE]

I said it all year and right from day 1,this is a Dubas team and everyone enjoy what will be a great regular season and then get ready for disappointment come playoffs.

Nothing changed since he took over and his so called added grit were either over the hill or stupid players that take stupid penalties and in the playoffs will play little so he really didn't add grit.

He added a couple of decent defensemen but at great cost and they are aging and you could see them wearing down and it was only the first round.

So he built a lousy playoff team,has continued to draft the same type players so nothing will change,messed up the cap and traded away a ton of futures and promoted an inexperienced coach that cannot adapt to NHL playoff hockey for the glory of first round exits.

Matthews has 2 years left and will do his thing and for sure test the FA market.

If Dubas ends up keeping his job how can anyone expect different,we need an experienced GM and coach right now and try to get something out of these last 2 years because it will then be another rebuild and another bunch of years to maybe be competitive again.

great post, but you forgot shanahan.

Just like last year, Game 6 was the chance.

Last year Dermott screwed us. This year it was the refs. Crazy to think this series was essentially decided by Foote snapping his head back.

You spelled Kerfoot wrong. Yeah refs were bad that game, but the refs didnt make Kerfoot drop a pass on a 4 on 4, when he was 0.1 seconds from clearing center ice.

Leafs are good at one thing: choking in Game 7's.

and the jets are good at staying irrelevant. Go build a airport

 

[BTP]

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

lol at blaming the GM. hes not on the ice. he put together a 115 point team. Its on them to man up and win in the biggest moments.

also this has been happening way before Dubas. He is not even close to the problem.

 

[Leaf Fans]

The same corsi specialists and "positive" posters are nowhere to be found on this thread. And they told us that we aren't the "real fans". lol

I am a positive poster, and I am here. But you shouldn't be that surprised a lot of the posters that are no where to he found when the team is winning always come out after a loss whether it is game 7 or any other time.

 

[saffronleaf]

that's just for the cameras, i hope keefe doesn't take that to heart. i'm sure once they got to the locker room they were laughing their asses off.

 

[garce]

Cody Ceci lmao

Barrie had the winner last game, wish we drew the Kings l

 

[OVO16]

Kase, Spezza, Engvall, Kerfoot, Clifford should be all gone.

Our bottom 6 needs to be completely overhauled with guys who can compete in a playoff atmosphere.

Too bad I have zero faith in Dubas

 

[Gabriel426]

really like they keep saying they are “close” but haven’t made it past the first round for multiple years

Did you even read the second sentence of my post.

Comparing to last 2-3 years where they kind of just goes, we lost.... I don't think we need to change the way we played.....

 

[ITM]

Shanny is just content with making the playoffs and go out 1st round. The other guy down the hall, Masai Ujiri, I wish was running this team instead.

His trophy cabinet says otherwise.

 

[ruaware41]

Fans getting mad cause a team lost a 7 game series against the back to back stanley cup champs.

lmao.

you folks are something. A special type.

if you honestly can’t see why fans are mad after 6 straight first round Ls then I really don’t know what to tell you.

 

[3blizzard4]

Just a suggestion but more winning, less crying would be good.

A ride in a private jet for a nice “earned vacay” will cure all their ills.

At least we dont have to live in winnipeg. Even when we lose we win against you weirdos.

Don't mind Kase.

Give Spezza a role somewhere in the organization.

yup I'm sure $11m will help wiping away those tears. crybaby.

 

[Kurtz]

Dumb? Dumb is thinking less than a PPG regular season is acceptable for an $11 million player.

It has nothing to do with this series.
There isn’t a team in the league who would trade for that contract. He’s a depreciating asset and, in business, that is not a good thing.

But hey, if we don’t give up a 5 on 3, we win that game. Give me a f***ing break. That’s a loser mentality. We lost. Period.

Lol, so if JT would score 79 points this season rather than 76, you'd be fine with him.

Many assets in a business are qualified as depreciating assets yet are critical. I wager you're not an accountant.

If you're looking to focus your ire on a player, I recommend either looking at Kerfoot, who lost us game 6, or Simmonds who helped us lose game 2.

Listen, if we could swing JT for a #1 dman like Hedman, sure. But that ain't happening.

 

[Thornbury]

blow up the team and rebuild - so done with this franchise

So why bother making a comment if you are done with the team?

no

 

[steam whistle]

Was thinking of getting a gif of him smiling actually.

Top to bottom, no executive has brought our team closer to a perennial culture of winning as this guy has in the last 40 years. It's easy to lose sight of it at this moment, but that's the truth of it. And a loss to the two-time defending Stanley Cup champs doesn't diminish it.

I wanna take over his job, f***ing collect easy money every year! I knew Masai proved himself, did he? f***ing Shanahan

 

[saffronleaf]

Leafs are good at one thing: choking in Game 7's.

also game 5s in the event it's a 5-game series.

 

[MSZ]

Leafs are good at one thing: choking in Game 7's.

So you watched the entire series? I know I wouldn't waste my time to watch the Paper Planes play in the playoffs........

Wait.

 

[Gabriel426]

no

Thats your problem, buddy.

 

[PromisedLand]

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

I guarantee you that will not happen. They will defend him till the end. And if you lose your patience with them they will report your posts for harassments.

 

[OVO16]

Don't mind Kase.

Give Spezza a role somewhere in the organization.

Kase f***ing sucks. Dude was nowhere to be found. DIdnt make any sort of impact. He played scared the whole series.

He's cooked

Oh shit, so you're team must have swept their series then? Who did you guys play again?
