[Daisy Jane]

1 goal in 6 periods, and one of those goalies is Jake Allen.
Feel Shame.
also play better.

[Leafs at Knight]

1 goal against Murray and Allen is really sad tbh. We shouldn't be having trouble scoring and our best players need more ice time.

Most of the team needs to put in a better effort, including the coaches.

 

[Willy Styles]

Don’t understand how it’s possible to loose EVERY single puck battle

 

[LeafSadist]

Feels bad man

 

[AustonGretzky]

This team's defence needs work to say the least...

 

[Pi]

I just want some heat on Babcock. That’s all.

He’s seriously looking more and more like a dinosaur in today’s game.

 

[DopeyFish]

This team's defence needs work to say the least...

this result had absolutely zero to do with defense

 

[Carltons Cup]

They have absolutely no fight back and no toughness. I don't even know if the leafs landed a hit in this game

 

[Suntouchable13]

We have seen some troubling signs for sure. This team is too easy to play against. I still like the team, I just don't like some of the coaching decisions. I am really concerned that we are being coached by a dinosaur worse than Randy Carlyle.

 

[Pi]

This team's defence needs work to say the least...

They gave up like 20 shots? What was wrong with the D?

The coach might not be right for this team and I don’t think the goalie is all that great either.

 

[DopeyFish]

They have absolutely no fight back and no toughness. I don't even know if the leafs landed a hit in this game

toughness also had zero to do with the result

 

[Mats13]

We had like 12 shots. Doesn't matter how good your defence is if you can't score

 

[BertCorbeau]

Shit happens over an 82 game season. Forget it and move on

 

[Loosie]

Beware the hot takes....

 

[Blanche Blanche]

1. We lacked the jump we usually have. Started having jump later on but too late.
2. Outcoached again. Nothing has changed. 1-2 pass up the middle or board. Thats it.
3. Adjusted too late. Players looked lost buying into this system again. Looks like last season.
4. Refs were fair this game

 

[Mr Hockey]

Blues made this a very scrambly, ugly game.

 

[Mats13]

I just want some heat on Babcock. That’s all.

He’s seriously looking more and more like a dinosaur in today’s game.

Connor Brown had more TOI than Tavares.

 

[Mikeyg]

Great player

 

[weems]

Can anyone answer if we had a timeout with 6 minutes left?
We get a powerplay down 2 goals, you basically HAVE to score there to have any chance.
So the first unit plays like 40 seconds and he makes a line change?
Why not just take a timeout if its there and push as hard for that goal as possible.

Either he forgot he could actually take a timeout or he was sending a message.

Matthews threw a good one, actually. Not much more than that though.

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

When Babcock tries to force defense and make the leafs play boring hockey, he sure brings the goals for down a lot more than the goals against. When will he realize it's not a good strategy?

 

[ULF_55]

Well, maybe these games where they aren't in it will help shape what the have to do to win.

Oh, and it would be nice if their 3rd./4th. best player was in the line-up.

Need someone else who can beat a goalie one-v-one.

 

[SoVi3t]

Does Kadri know that his honeymoon is over and it's hockey time again?

 

[saffronleaf]

I know this is sacrilege but local deity Marner has looked very underwhelming.

I know he goes on hot streaks now and then, plus he smiles and has an inelegant skating style that makes him look like he's trying, but he doesn't look good out there.

 

[LeafShark]

I don't understand what this phenomenon is. What's it called when the other team scores more than the Leafs in two games in a row? This phenomenon must be studied, analyslsed, studied, and documented for future generations!
