GDT: Sens @ Leafs pre-season - 7PM EST

[Racer88]

I just don’t get how this group can’t just come out and play a meaningless game hard, have some fun and success and go home happy, business as usual and feel good having made a good first impression. It’s just inexplicable how disinterested they seem to be in doing a job well when it isn’t required.

Ya it’s crazy that they are that arrogant that they feel like they only need to try when they feel like it and probably wonder why the fans are on them.
It’s inexcusable

And 10 games in it will be, it’s early still the guys haven’t hit their stride yet to be followed by it’s just the regular season. Even us fans are trained. Lol

Would be nice to start the season in mid season form.

If they won every pre-season game and first 10 games of the season, would you say that meant they would win at playoff time? Of course not, opposite is true. This is about getting familiar with changes and being ready for game 1 not winning

 

[BallardEra]

A buddy of mine just went ballistic.

Said he smashed his growler after that third goal and his wife booted him out of the house until the game is over.

 

[GQS]

Gunna be a long 4 years with OeL

Still don't understand why Brad felt the need to sign him to 4 years instead of something more sane like 2.

It's f***ing pre-season

 

[NJG]

Am I the only one that doesn’t think Riley is a top two d-man? I know it’s early and pre season but I’ve thought it for a while now.

 

[BallardEra]

It's f***ing pre-season

That's what I told him

I’m not even saying they have to win but they dam well should show up and try or do players only need to try when they are looking for a spot on the team

It’s about effort level not winning or losing. Go with all you have whatever that may be at this time. Reduce the time on ice before you hurt yourself.

Am I the only one that doesn’t think Riley is a top two d-man? I know it’s early and pre season but I’ve thought it for a while now.

he’s most definitely a top 2 Dman. Probably closer to a #2 than a #1 if he doesn’t bounce back.

With that said, he’s looked garbage today

 

[BallardEra]

Woah, did he have money spend on this here. Hopefully he didnt lose a lot of paper. Cause these pre season games are often hard to guess wich way they go ..

Doubt it. He just likes to pound them back on the weekend while he is fasting throughout the week.

Rielly is probably a 2-3 but miscast as a weak 1 in Toronto.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Leafs gotta Leafs. It’s only pre-season, but this looks pretty much the same as Keefe Leafs so far.

I know they look like dog shit tonight, but let's give it a little time here It's the 2nd intermission of the first pre season game

A buddy of mine just went ballistic.

Said he smashed his growler after that third goal and his wife booted him out of the house until the game is over.

You remind me of somebody that use to post stuff like that in the Leaf facebook groups I'm in.

I don't think that happened

 

[PromisedLand]

Berube.. welcome to muskoka. Dubas and Keefe worked hard to get us here.

Plot Twist:

People thought Berube was brought in to instill work ethic and change the culture, however, little did he know that it is Berube himself will change and embrace the Muskoka culture

LMAO

This guy is 1 of 1.

This 100%

 

[Antropovsky]

Jeff Vallette getting a shout out on CBC broadcast for breaking the Kulemin wanting to be near his son whose playing in NA. Isn't he a member or was a member here.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

Leafs gotta Leafs. It’s only pre-season, but this looks pretty much the same as Keefe Leafs so far.

It's pretty much the same roster, it's to be expected

Sounds like a complete loser.

Classic M. Night Shanahan plot.

 

[Al14]

Preseason boys, it’s all good lol

No it's NOT GOOD !!!

Same shit different season. So much for a new coach getting our team to start on time and take advantage of playing a lesser team.

Sens no-names outplaying our big guns by a WIDE margin.

Sens have energy, our Leafs are just playing like their pouting because hockey has interrupted their Muskoka vacations.

Our Leafs have nearly a full NHL lineup. The Sens do not !!! The score should be reversed IMHO.

Once again our Leafs have no intensity or killer instinct. Keefe was vilified and fired for no good reason. Our core has failed to take over a hockey game and DOMINATE.

 

[Leafs87]

Agreed although there seems to always be an excuse

 

[Roo]

Never gonna happen lol. I remember us beating an A-roster maybe years ago when we sucked, didn’t mean shit haha

Leafs getting used to new systems. It's going to be rough for a while lol

Definitely… very unlikely we come storming out of the gate.

 

[thewave]

Leafs winning this 5-4 Nylander Hatty
