Post-Game Talk: Leafs Lose 3-2 in OT

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Babcock playing 4D chess, trying to keep Hughes out of our division

 

[Jmo89]

Mo Riles with one of his worst games of the years... But to be fair it was probably the worst game of the year for the entire team. Matthews and Marleau got them a point.

 

[PromisedLand]

Take the point and move on

oh yeah... and please fire the PP coach. I cannot watch that abysmally predictable PP anymore

 

[ToneDog]

Best to forget this one. No excuses tomorrow against the Pens.

 

[leaffaninvancouver]

Rough game tonight, least we got a point.

 

[Suntouchable13]

God damn, we have not won consecutive games since we won 4 in a row from Dec 18-28.

 

[8816 others]

Stole a point. Is that 1st rounder for Muzzin lottery protected? Yikes.

 

[JerseyMike34]

I'd post William Nylanders stats....
But all you need to know is he had 15 minutes of ice, and didn't do shit.

 

[francis246]

Babcock sucks

I think Babcock has his faults, but this wasn’t a system loss. This was specific leafs players not being able to get the puck out. Just complete brain farts

 

[A1LeafNation]

Nylander is terrible.... one dimensionally bad. Kapanen is such a better player right now. Who would've guessed this last year?

WTF Nylander was one of the few who showed up.

 

[raydizzle]

Mind boggling decisions by Babcock, game after game. How is Brown in the OT over Kapanen?

 

[Steven1562]

Didn't deserve 2 tonight.

 

[Guided by Veseys]

Did Babcock not play Tavares in OT? That’s insane. Honestly that should be a firing offence, it is unquestionably inept.

 

[ULF_55]

Well earned loss.

Get a gift point.

Wings the better team tonight.

 

[GardinerTheForward]

We were lucky to get a point. Let’s be happy and hold off on the hot takes. Need to figure out what is wrong with this team

 

[GodEmperor]

Fire Babcock.

Trade Greedy Melander.

Sorry, both have to be done, bla bla muh emotions bla bla hot takes. How many times are we gonna get OWNED by Florida, Detroit, St Louis, Arizona and other garbage teams?

We paid Nylander 7 million dollars to put up less than a 25 point pace? Just sad and pathetic all around. Also inb4 "he looks better though!!!!" Sorry for 7 million dollars playing nearly 1/3 of the year at a 25 point pace is NOT going to cut it, no matter how much better you look than your horrendous performances to start the year.

 

[Gallagbi]

Fitting end. Outside Matthews our top end was terrible, Marner and Rielly in particular.

Not sure what it is with Rielly lately, but he's absolutrly clueless without the puck right now.

 

[SoVi3t]

Decent game. Matthews looked good. Our defence looked a LOT better but definitely looked like they were going through growing pains from the addition of Muzzin and the lineup changes.

I'm not disappointed in this loss. We got a point out of it.

Kids came off an all star break, and have to do a double header.

On another note, holy s***, Freddy is probably the best Leafs goalie we've ever had between the pipes.

 

[socko]

kadri was so annoying to watch. better wake up tomorrow

Kadri was really terrible. No more vacations for him.

 

[Wafflewhipper]

f***ing Matthews has to find a work ethic. Lost hos mannand stopped skating again. f***ing soft

 

[TimeZone]

Thank God there's a solid UFC card on tomorrow night. Huge pass on watching the Leafs after that one. Absolutely abysmal effort.

Fire the PP coach, now.

 

[ToneDog]

Did Babcock not play Tavares in OT? That’s insane. Honestly that should be a firing offence, it is unquestionably inept.

One shift with Kappy.

 

[Bomber0104]

Sure we got dominated all game-long and barely scraped together a point...

But how was our CORSI ?!?

 

[TheKule]

bad games from a lot of guys. on to the pens, who the leafs have played well this year.

 

[dethszn]

Exactly what I expected, another loss to a basement team.
