GDT: Sens @ Leafs - 7pm - HNIC

[Scion]

One period away from failing another fraud check. Just once I'd wish there was some pride..

I'd be far less worried if I thought this was an effort issue.

This has been a prolonged problem now. We're consistently getting outshot and not driving the play for the last month now. Big problem.

It's been longer than a month, it's been like this for 40+ games

The Leafs are 26th in xGF% since December 1st

Their peers are the Montreal Canadiens, Columbus Blue Jackets, Seattle Kraken, Buffalo Sabres etc.

Marner is a wimp, Nylander has an issue with effort, and Matthews honestly just looks like he's out there to collect his cash. Reilly is almost un playable at this point also. If massive changes aren't made to the core of this team it will probably be atleast another 25 years until Toronto sees a cup.

I’ll never question his effort in games that matter I rather someone who takes time off in the season and is dialed in in the playoffs as opposed to the opposite

 

[Confucius]

He earns it but man is Nylander selfish

Wonder why? Look who he is playing with.. lol

 

[yubbers]

What do you want them to do? All they can do is work as hard their ability allows. They sure seem to be doing that.

I want them to put on their big boy pants and get the results they're paid for.

Participation trophies are not in the leauge

 

[ClarkSittler]

3 goals on 17 shots they are losing because of goaltending and it's that simple that's less then 25 shots for the game.

Goaltending hasn't been good but we have 12 shots on net at home on a Saturday night against a division rival. That's pathetic.

 

[Torontonian]

To dump and chase you need forwards that hit

Agreed, I don’t hate the idea of playing that like on theory/paper, but the roster is not built like that.

So you either keep doing it and get performances like this.. Where you have 12 shots after 2 periods and 0 pressure.. Or you switch it to play to the teams style.

 

[Gallagbi]

Goaltending hasn't been good but we have 12 shots on net at home on a Saturday night against a division rival. That's pathetic.

This is what we're built for.

 

[arso40]

Tampa up 4-1 and Panthers down 2-1 after two.

Boston costing me some coin

 

[Suntouchable13]

Keep waiting for that pride to show also, others seem are blaming the coaching but im sick of it. This sad sack of "leaders" we have is the issue. They play when its 3 on 3 but as soon as the going gets tough they shrivel up.

If they lose in the first round again, it will be squarely on the players. How many coaching changes do we need before it's on the players? I don't know how you can just bring everyone back again for 2025-2026.

 

[MilkofthePoppy]

My favorite part of the night, listening to Luke Sucksdik.

 

[arso40]

Wonder why? Look who he is playing with.. lol

Few shifts with Matthews looked good

 

[thewave]

What is Jen even saying?

 

[keonsbitterness]

Blast from the past right here

French station had 5 minutes of clear picture an hour. That was fun for a teenager.

 

[Azail]

I doubt it can get this bad, but it would be kinda funny to drop into the wildcard. Ottawa is not far behind at all.

 

[yubbers]

What is Jen even saying?

I don't know. Her neck distracted me

 

[Scion]

This has been a prolonged problem now. We're consistently getting outshot and not driving the play for the last month now. Big problem.

It's been going on since November if we are being honest, but it is bottom third of the league bad since February.

 

[Azail]

What is Jen even saying?

Intermission is always muted for me with this panel.

 

[Antropovsky]

Wow... hockey night in Canada highlighting Domi's excellent game.

 

[GlitchMarner]

It's basically the kind of game I expected. Tight-checking hockey and the Leafs look are having a hard time even though they're supposed to have this identity of being a defensive team now.

This is exactly the type of game Marner fails to make much of an offensive impact in repeatedly. Hoping he can create something in the third.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Does Jarnkrok do anything? Another amazing Dubas signing. At least he is done after this season. We need to overhaul this team, big time.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

I'm less concerned about home ice and am more concerned that this team may actually miss the playoffs the way things are going.

 

[PanniniClaus]

If you named me the coach I would probably play a 1-1-3 or a 3-2 (Jalonen). Ugly, shit looking hockey but with our lack of grit and battle winning team... we need a system where we get NZ turnovers or we force dumps, run some interference and get the puck right back out in the NZ where we use speed to get on loose pucks.

It is anti hockey but based on the roster we have? I'd play LA Kings style. I'm usually not this negative but I am seeing this team for what it is and it has a chance to completely implode.

 

[Stephen]

If he's smart he will leave. No chance of winning with this leadership. People think he will be hated if he leaves, but when the results don't change the target will change to someone else.

Marner’s not winning anywhere the way he’s going. It’s not the team’s fault.

 

[yubbers]

Does Jarnkrok do anything? Another amazing Dubas signing. At least he is done after this season. We need to overhaul this team, big time.

I don't knonw what anyone sees in him
