Ahh, that fake "hold me back" energy. lol

 

[yubbers]

Funny how times change. At one point everyone wanted the pp loaded under BabCOCK. Now we have it and it’s been rather brutal.

My favourite iteration of the pp was early during the bubble. We have some offensive depth. Mix up the big 4.

Getting rid of Babs was a clear message to the inmates they run the asylum. I honestly don't htink it can be undone.

Unless you let me coach. LOL. I'd literally healthy scratch Marner until he asked to be traded.

 

[PromisedLand]

Rielly, Timmins & Lil are playing like ass too. He can bench as much as he wants but it's not like the team conspired to play like shit. Keefe has lost the room.
His decisions are erratic.

Keefe bent over backwards to the childish whining of matthews and marner while they continued to suck ass in the playoffs.

I don't care what it looks like Keefe was 100% right in benching their ass.

Cooper benched Kucherov, Stamkos and Point for the entire 3rd period; and they had already had 2 cups by then.

ACCOUTNABILITY is a thing. Marner is the biggest cultprit out there

 

[Tie Domi Esquire]

it's too late for phony baloney Keefe to pretend to be a hard ass now.

 

[ER89]

Yep, five years of the same problems but it's definitely the players, both the ones who have been here for years and the ones who just got here. It can't be the idiot coach who hasn't changed a damned thing for his entire tenure on this f***ing team.

Like 2 years ago, if the core 4 don't do anything, the team does nothing.

keefe is trash....

but so is this rotten core four. William stops playing as soon as he gets a contract. Marner hasn't even shown up this season. JT is trash. And Matthews who has been great gives you no shows as soon as a team is good at defense.

Then we have a GM who takes it up the ass with all contracts and f***s this team by having almost all his signings not work...

 

[Aashir]

reinhart already has a goal with a period left

now 3 goals behind AM

Clearly a bunch of Leaf fans have decided the whole team has conspired to play bad for reasons and none of it is Keefe's fault in the slightest...

 

[Confucius]

Both teams playing like ass

The Jets are the best defensive team in the league by a nice margin, give them some credit a lot of people enjoy that type of game. Sammy shutting them down so we have that much going so far anyway

 

[DraftSchmaft]

Reaves starting pp1 next game

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

If they win tonight it will be in spite of Keefe not because of him.

He clearly isn't interested in winning tonight .

If he were he doesn't sit the NHL's leading goal scorer for an entire PP and half of another.

 

[Niagara Bill]

Good thing! We only need to play one good period to win a game.

Jets completely died 2 minutes into the 2nd period. We haven't done anything much in return to take advantage. Don't think their D has anything to do with it. We're just asleep

If you trade Marner, you might as well trade Matthews too, 'cause he's gone in 4 years. At which point, you might as well trade the whole damn team and expect to exist in the basement again.

 

[Darcy Tucker]

Next goal wins?

 

[TakeTheBody]

I agree with sitting them. I also agree it's probably too late. I'll be fine when Keefe is fired.

 

[DarkKnight]

Give us one period boys, you should be embarrassed.

 

[Aashir]

give me one period of entertainment please

 

[DarkKnight]

The only positive besides Sam, Bertuzzi hasn't looked this good in weeks.

My favourite iteration of the pp was early during the bubble. We have some offensive depth. Mix up the big 4.

Of course, our idiot coach loads up PP1 and then doles out PP time as if he didn't load it up at all...

Either split PP1 or play it like all your good scorers are on it; loading it up and then playing it less than a minute per PP is moronic.

 

[Racer88]

I don't think they are very good either, but every single player is getting worse. What's happened to Marner this whole year? Nylander and Matthews dominate and then look timid. Knies is borderline unplayable. Kampf doesn't play remotely the same game as he has previously. Jarnkrok does nothing. Tavares is done. Gio and Brodie are done. Bertuzzi doesn't look like he's playing the same sport as the rest. He's never looked like this in his career.

Only players that are playing their usual game is Rielly, Benoit and McCabe.

It is strange that’s for sure

 

[Aashir]

that was a prime brodie play on ehlers followed by a current brodie bad pass to rielly

If he were he doesn't sit the NHL's leading goal scorer for an entire PP and half of another.

Apparently it's not Keefe's fault, though.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Nicky Bobby is having himself a game.

 

[Racer88]

Don't worry we'll get to wear more in a couple weeks, I think he was in on the ASG designs

I will not be watching 10 seconds of the ASG waste of time

Pegs don't have any PP yet. You know that's coming
