yeah. end of the day im not putting too much stock in this game.

this aint the team we'll be icing in game 1.

We are a different beast with 34 in the line up. Add a LW at the deadline and even more so.

this game, quite frankly, means absolutely nothing.

We've said that in our last 3 losses itsc 6 points lost.

Leafs have looked like this team with 34 in the lineup to finish every season for the past 6 years...

Don’t be to surprised when Dubas just adds a 4th line role player and nothing else

 

[BeLeafing]

Ullmark was good and Samsonov was bad

that's really all for this one, team looked fine

 

[Leafsforever89]

Matthews is freakin furious with some model at the hotel now.

Female model?

 

[ToneDog]

3rd best team in the league, if regular season doesn’t matter don’t sweat this meaningless game. It’s a glass half empty World then.

Said it before. Let's see what they do in game 83 and beyond.

 

[Stephen]

A Riley Nash clone who is just the right amount of zero offense with passable defense and gentlemanly no hitting tendencies. A swiss army knife for a gun fight.

 

[Racer88]

Legit what is he even jotting down?

His food order for the after game meal

 

[Cleetus]

Dubas' phone better be on fire tonight

who the heck is Michael Koster?

this game meaning nothing would mean something if the team showed up when the games mean something but they don't

 

[PromisedLand]

Hopefully doesn't come to that

Would wonder which era hurt and disappointed mote

The Kessel era or the maythews one

Matthews one for me personally. They rebuilt, i.e. started from scratch and its quite a failure IMO

kessel era was bad with salutegate and missing the playoffs but it wasn't a rebuild; as teachers pension plan (prior owners) wouldn't allow a rebuild.

not to mention:
- losing to zamboni driver
- montreal colors on the CN tower
- hiring and firing a psycho for AHL position
- etc.... (respect in handshake line, and other crap)

 

[Nineteen67]

3 of the goals are on Samsonov.

They need D, Forwards and probably a goaltender……tough.

 

[Larcos_Unal]

who the heck is Michael Koster?

5'9 164lbs

 

[Metroid]

Hahahaha they just showed Dubas taking notes like he actually has some sort of idea what he’s doing. Lol

Kinda like what you're doing right now. You have no clue yourself lol .

 

[geo25]

an intelligent coach would do this to get some offense going.

Montgomery put pasta on the 2nd line starting 2nd period. There is no effing around on boston

Keefe is at heart a minor league coach with a minor league vision. He is seriously over rated for the job. Gifted with an abundance of talent but dosen't have the know how nor attributes required to make them winners. We will never win with him at the helm just obeying directives from above....This whole mgmt group & some of the core have to go. We need a different mindset and culture change....both on and off the ice.

 

[Cleetus]

well its about that time to blame the fans for this loss, they are the ones responsible for this loss!

 

[Antropovsky]

This team doesn't have a high pressure gear. They seem to do well in a low pressure, positive environment but the moment there's a feeling of a big game situation and they seem to hit a brick wall offensively and their cheap parts start making costly errors.

Humiliating comments by Marchand couldn't even motivate this team to battle. There is no bark back...meanwhile poor Bunting is the only NHL caliber player on this roster with any pride.

 

[MSZ]

who the heck is Michael Koster?

Some random dude playing in NCAA right now.

Personally I think it is a culture issue. They put players on the pedastal above team when Dubas became GM and it was just downhill from then on IMO.

Cooper also came in from minor league but no issues there

 

[glue]

There’s always someone on the leafs who has a bad night or makes a bad play in big games/key moments..sad really

 

[Racer88]

Kinda like what you're doing right now. You have no clue yourself lol .

I know what doesn’t work as we have been seeing it for the last 4 years

 

[dubplatepressure]

Goal 3 and 4 can't go in especially 4 Samsonov killed ALL momentum with that goal.

3 and 4 those ones NEED to be stopped

Yah well, perfect shots. Nothing you can do.

If the guys playing on the team don't seem to mind, maybe we shouldn't either?

Not like marchand did much this game...

 

[Gilmour1996]

who the heck is Michael Koster?

A 5'9" 172# defenceman. Just what we need more of.
