Another game and here we go again with concerns about team effort. I know it’s only 8 games but when can we start being concerned?

Ugh, great 3rd period wasted with a garbage OT. 3v3 OT is about keeping possession, WTF were Nylander and Marner doing with their “take on the whole team and turn it over” rushes? That’s straight up dumb play.

On the bright side, Matthews and Marner were better overall. But man, waste of a good comeback. Also played terrible in the 2nd period.

They are just wasting our time.

Stealing a single point is the only positive - complete no-shows, again, for a massive chunk of this game.

Kallgren can’t make a save
Defender doesn’t know what he’s doing
Forward makes a stupid play

Epitome of 3-on-3


But the play through 60 minutes is yet again terrible, 5 minutes of effort doesn’t change that. We should be dominating the sharks, not getting an undeserved OT point

That performance tonight was ... expected.

And the prototype of a typical Toronto loss. Give up a goal quickly, half-arse their way to a tie, then a brutal turnover pass in the offensive zone and the goalie can't bail them out.
