Just embarrassing we didn't get one shot off during the PP.... Props to the Canes for shutting us down there, not that it takes too much these days.

 

[SeaOfBlue]

So does this Ayres guy get the W or is it credited to Mrazek?

Right now it is Ayres'.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

Don't worry, Carolina will be tired in the third period.

And the Leafs will play down

 

[Resistance]

If he doesn't let shots in he should be fired from his Marlies job.

Saturday Headlines

"Canes may want a goalie"

Hard hitting reporting there.

 

[hockeyes]

Feels like a Leaf loss, everything in their favor, shoot themselves in foot and play like shit

 

[htpwn]

I'm posting for the first time in close to two years to say this team is an embarrassment.

Matthews, Marner, Nylander, and Tavares all should be benched next game after that period. IDK about the 2 points. A message needs to be sent.

 

[Cleetus]

We got an emergency goalie, Pesce is out, Carolina is on a B2B, we're still gonna lose

its not a great feeling....

 

[dangomon]

It should be .000 with these contracts

Hooooowwwwwwwwww does everything come back to contracts??

 

[Menzinger]

Spezza has been one of the best parts of the leafs bottom 6

One of the best valued contracts on the team

 

[IPS]

This team is a joke

only 3 shots on an emergency goaltender, and we even got a f*cking power play

That PP may have been the lowest point of the last 4 years for me.

You literally have a free goal waiting there for you but you can't outwork the opposing team for even 5 seconds to make it happen.

 

[ryno23]

Emergency goaliein and leafs are dumping it arpund the boards playing likes it a regular goalie

Every single puck on the net

 

[francis246]

We blew an opportunity to tie, one of Carolina’s goalies are coming back. We always try and be too cute. Just fcking shoot.

although kappy made the right play at the end, engvall has to put that in. It was wide open

 

[The Podium]

A team on a back to back with an emergency backup and you can’t get a few shots on goal?

this is a f***ing joke, Mrazek will be back after the period. They’ll lose this game

 

[BertCorbeau]

The PP looks so embarrassing tonight .. as an sides Marner looks like a scrub out there. He needs to wake up.

Unlucky to not be tied at the end. Need to keep working hard and just put pucks on the net.

No excuses to lose this one, especially in regulation

 

[Nylander88]

We don't deserve to be in this at all. I can't even be happy about this situation of shooting at a Zamboni driver

 

[ToneDog]

From a pure hockey point of view Barrie coming back has been a disaster.

But we can trade him now.

 

[Erdinger]

Don't forget the Canes haven't finished scoring either

Not a smart team.

 

[bax]

Why not ??

Wasnt sure if there was a rule.

 

[Willchel Marlynder]

I'm not here to make excuses but the refs really are doing everything in their power to f*ck us over.

We've gotten 3 power plays. Our big dogs pick and choose when they want to play.

 

[HamiltonNHL]

That PP may have been the lowest point of the last 4 years for me.

Sad

 

[CaptainCrunch17]

ugh i feel like one of the real goalies will be back after intermission need to shoot more nowww

The Leafs don’t want to shoot and risk giving up the puck and hurting their possession numbers.

 

[Metroid]

I'm so annoyed that we are down going into the 3rd.
Why aren't we lighting this guy up? They feel bad? Ect? Like comeon

 

[Blueboy]

Marner has been absolute trash tonight.

I was going to post the exact same thing.

 

[Sypher04]

I'l say for all the hate we're getting on that PP, everytime we touched a puck we were hooked off of it. Anytime a puck was moved, that player was immediately hooked off it. We needed to come in prepared and have better support though

Maybe so, but we also need to fight through that. It's not going to be any different in the playoffs tbh.
