GDT: Leafs @ Sens

[Jozay]

Did they really show us a highlight of tkachuk putting his helmet back on

 

[therealkoho]

maybe don't pretend to have any idea how the power dynamic of our room works or whether Marner/Matthews are simply together because that's how the coach likes it.
There is no evidence "the inmates run the asylum" as you suggest.

It's crazy in LeaFland Syph, it can't be fixed

 

[Teeder Keon]

Please , I implore all of us ...
let’s not say at the end of the game that their goalie is this or that and out played this or that
We just need to compete better
Way better
We haven’t learned unfortunately!
We need to match intensity

 

[ToMaLe]

I guess Freddie isn't the problem as much as people say....this is why rooting is a waste bc its too hard to win

Freddie is a sieve, and have been for a very long time.

I'm surprised he didnt get a penalty. Usually helmet comes off, you gotta get off. Typical.

 

[Sypher04]

You need to find a way to win, I agree, but people here need to stop trying to equate the losses vs Vancouver and the first loss to Winnipeg with what we've seen so far tonight or to some extent last game. They played out entirely differently and the Leafs were good enough in those earlier games of this slump to walk away with the win. Demko & Hellebuyck were the difference. Hell, the first 2 games versus Winnipeg we rather handily outplayed them and they still got 3 points.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

I still think there's a reasonable chance the leafs win. The Sens are just that bad. One goal will change momentum.

 

[NK94]

This may finally be the red pill game for many of you.

I knew they were not 1/2 as good as the press was saying a few weeks ago. They play in the weak Canadian division. Image what the good US based team would do to this team over time? Dubas is on the clock to getting canned as he should. The GM of the year talk was laughable.

Yeah, Dubas isn't getting fired when he's had 2 of his 3 seasons as GM cut short due to an unforeseen global pandemic and he's had his hand picked coach for less than 80 games. Sorry.

That is the highlight of this game so far

 

[Captain14]

Can she play goal?

What a five hole!

 

[Mats13]

We need a trade for a top 6 LW really badly

supposed to illustrate high hockey Q

 

[BigGulpsEh]

They really haven’t

All that changed is Matthews got hurt.

When we were on fire he was scoring 25% of our goals. He’s hurt and now the rest of the team is being exposed.

I disagree. Leafs D were much more solid and did not turn the puck over like they constantly do now. Team had better structure

I blame last post game thread starter for this

I started it. Unfortunately Campbell wasn't ready for this game and Woll is in the A.

 

[Thissiteisgarbage]

I was so disappointed when Matthews wasn’t given the C.

Probably would have except he decided to act like an idiot with that female cop, if you remember...I think that forced the decision away from him.

 

[2 Slick]

I still think there's a reasonable chance the leafs win.

Lol

 

[Twine Tickler]

2 games in a row we play a teams back up/third stringer and have scored a total of 3 goals

It's the Ottawa Senators.

Stop making excuses. The team barely showed up last night, so they certainly shouldn't get tonight off too.

I’m not making excuses. They clearly need to be better. But they will be 19-9-2 after they lose tonight. Which is far from a sky is falling scenario. Let’s just take a breather for a sec eh

Thank you, couldn't have said it better myself.

 

[peconcan]

Play Sabourin Friday night, start him first shift tell him to beat the shit out of Tkachuk to set the tempo and get the boys going. Last 2 games have been hard to watch

 

[HockeyVirus]

Considering turning this one off. Sucks I know this is the last game for a week.

 

[Carltons Cup]

Thank God they don't play again til next Friday...

I'll be able to do more productive things with my time.

 

[Dave92]

No. It's definitely not.

It definitely is. Name any Babcock losses as bad as the 5 goal Senator comeback this season. Not gonna compare the Zamboni game because that's the most embarrassing loss in the history of the league.

Our worst and most embarrassing playoff series in the past 4 years was coached by Keefe, 3 minutes away from being shut out 3 times in a 5 game series.

The issue is our defensive structure hasn't been as good in all of these games.

 

[hockeyes]

Whenever Reilly starts taking a bunch of shots you know the game is over.

 

[Scion]

Mikheyev couldn't score on a soccer net with a breakaway.

 

[The Legend]

First real , concerning , long term adversity on the leafs , players and current management team with Dubas and Keefe in control
Should be very interesting , what they do about it , within all the areas of the Hockey team and roster and hard decisions

What about last season?
