Post-Game Talk: Leafs lose 5-2 | What Is There To Even Say?

[Stephen]

That was a disgraceful effort top to bottom.

 

[Coachcorner]

What a "team". Me too dubas way to go. Softie dolls. Play better ice hockey. None of the goals were on andersen. Leave ice hockey toronto at this team period. Ain't no tucker domi roberts sundin quinn burns gilmour clark wilm nieuwendyk belfour the eagle in jail in it I can assure you.

Leave ice hockey. This ain't it. Dubas, you ain't understanding the game AIN*T CHANGED from the BEGINNING. That's why you in trouble. TROUBLE. LOL what a "DEFENCE" :ahahahahahahahahha DIE. SLOW. team. in mental mode meaning die.

 

[Ratboy]

I can't make this funny. This sucks.

This team has no heart except for like. Spezza

 

[willmma]

I had a feeling we're in trouble when Freddy let in 3 of 4 shots in the second and we were down 5-0.

 

[joeyjojojrshabadoo]

Loser mentality game after game after game after game after game. Maybe it's not a bad spell. Maybe it's bad players that just don't give a fu ck. Pathetic. So tired of watching them blunder their way through games like a bunch of lazy entitled pri cks.

 

[lovemyleafs]

At least Auston scored.
Rocket Richard, here he come!

 

[OVO16]

On a side note....Mathews has been all heart.

This is the most physical I've seen him play in a long while. YOu can tell how badly this is bothering him

Pittsburgh definitely stopped trying after 5-0, but it never should have gotten to that score. Andersen continues to sink the team

 

[Al14]

Leafs suck! All of them, from Shanahan on down to the stick boy!

[TMLeafer]

What's cheaper than a cheap tent? That's what they fold like.

 

[lovemyleafs]

Freddy is a bum.
I always knew he wasn't all that when I went out with the same girl that he asked out.

 

[stickty111]

Well next 2 games tells the character of this team. If no response, sell and retool in the summer

 

[Suntouchable13]

There was no desperation whatsoever. They might still back theme selves into the playoffs. Florida has their issues too.

 

[Azazel]

Given how crappy this team has become I dont think ANY criticism should be "off-limits"

When Anderson plays bad, he should be called out.
When our defense play badly, they should be called out
When the officiating is absolute trash, it should be called out
When our offence can't score a goal to save their lives, it should be called out
When not one player on the team shows ANY heart, it should be called out.

None of these are excuses. Just all small pieces of a broken puzzle. I dont believe there is a "one thing" that we can blame everything on. It all sucks.

 

[ECanuck]

Spezza looked great!
Clifford scored a goal and Matthews is going to win the Rocket.
What a terrific year for the Toronto Maple Leafs!

 

[IPS]

Anyone else get a good kick out of that certain someone who forgot to log out of their alt account when posting on the GDT?

 

[SeaOfBlue]

Can't coach heart

This.

And no move is going to change anything until that changes first.

 

[leburn98]

We can and we will... miss the playoffs.

 

[OVO16]

I feel bad for Mathews.

One of the few players on this team who gives a damn.

 

[BayStBullies]

Special teams was a big difference. Time to fire some assistant coaches.

Defence is still shit; but, that's a personnel problem. How is Marincin still a thing?

 

[Ziggdiezan]

Or maybe it's reasonable to expect a goalie to make a difficult save once in a while?

I've caught a few Lightning games recently, Vasilevsky bails them out all the time. It's okay to expect Andersen to make a save once in a while.

If you think those goals are on Andy I don't know what to say. If your expecting a goalie to continually save cross seam tap ins then I think your going to be disappointed with any goalie.

Like 4 of those goals are completely on brutal defense coverage. The defenders nowhere to be seen, with a free pens player on the back post open to tap it into the open net. No goalie is going to keep the leafs in that game. That loss is on the entire team including Anderson and Keefe

 

[Dave92]

If you're a Kyle Dubas fan look at the bright side, you get a much needed reality check and only Dubas has to pay the price.

 

[Suntouchable13]

JC should start on Thursday, but if they lose again I don't know what they are going to do lol.
