The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
Our top guys, Marner, Nylander and Tavares are clearly better when Matthews is not here. I have to think it is because they get the hard minutes and excel in them.

Matthews has been a bum since he's been back and these other guys it seems cannot be as effective.

We're lucky we got those few wins we did last week.
 
AM with another shot from the blueline

Wes with another fair and balanced officiation lol

Refund my life time Gary
 
Special teams is killing us again. We cannot have a 50-60% PK and expect to win.
 
Brutal on the PP.. all around the outside and passing into the corner.. refusing to shoot from the middle.. time for Matthew$ to get hurt again I think

Love pulling the goalie the second time to take another shorty against for literally no reason too haha

Matthews need to be away from the other big 3

His game oddly isn’t suited to play with other skilled players

Matthews-Domi works when he’s back

I was starting to wonder during the period when Matthews was out if the Leafs should consider trading HIM for pieces, and now I'm around 99% positive. He can dominate when he wants to, but too often he chooses not to. And when he's playing like this he's dragging down all the players around him.
 
Yet another coach who only holds the bottom 6 guys accountable. Berube should bag-skate himself.
 
That loss, although a team non-effort is kind of on Berube. That was as bad or worse than anything Keefe ever conjured up.

The Leafs have been piss-poor the last 4 games, 5 if you go back to that almost fail in Tampa.

Beat Chicago because it sucks to suck. Beat Nashville because they had 5 good minutes and the last two losses.

Matthews needs to look at Sid, the greatest player of the last 25 years; his motor is always running, he's not playing sit and wait.
