A standard Leaf game. They have never had the killer instinct. They had it for the Flyers and then what?
Against Nashville they had a lead and multiple odd man rushes and they didnt score because too fancy.
Too many games they have allowed weaker teams to win or stay in games. Tonight they give up a shorty, then brain farts over and over even when they have 3-1 in PPs.
Just no instinct to WANT to decimate the opponent and play each shift as if its their last. Leafs should be winning these games going away.
Now Laughton and his line shows some bite, back to back with the depth players. It takes a guy struggling to get some motivation and some players who do more than dance around pylons.
Berube needs to give the 3rd and 4th Line more time the rest of this game. The top lines look like garbage tonight
