Post-Game Talk: Leave

[bl02]

the only line pressuring and generating. barely play them in the final 10 min and overtime. great job coach

 

[Cuckoo4Kakko]

Drury should copy the scene in Moneyball. Trade all of GG’s pets. You’re playing the kids.

Unfortunately, no one wants our overpriced loser vets. Kids will never truly develop, cause we can’t put them in over the loser vets.

 

[Shesterkybomb]

It's tough to beat Toronto with one line showing up.

Especially when they are on the bench most of the 3rd

 

[Kords]

If you are any of the young forwards, why would you even want to stay here and play for a team that overlooks you for guys doing less but getting more opportunity purely because they were born first?

 

[Riche16]

Hoping this ruins Drury’s weekend

 

[Rangers in 7]

Totaly lack of skill on this team. What a whiff Laf and Kakko were unfortunately.. I also lost my parlay

Lol did you watch the game?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Game is going well, then they shorten the bench and lose. Best line all night stapled for guys like Vesey, Goodrow and Trochek.

Reminds me of a certain ECF …

 

[irishlaxburger2]

Gonna be fun when Laf takes an offensive zone penalty on Friday and gets scratched the next game

 

[TriFF51]

It was Panarin's guy

At some point you gotta take him...it became obvious he was gonna have a free lane the the net. Bench all three.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Drury did not look happy

Good. I'm not happy either.

 

[scorpiorising]

I Just tuned in for the overtime. I was so confused why not one player was moving for the Rangers. Panarin half ass trying and both the other two just staring at the play unfolding. Yikes

 

[LionsHeart]

We’re back on our bullshit. Blown leads late in the game leading to losses. We get the loser point, but this is a game we should’ve won. How many of them have we had this year?

Also the faith Gallant puts in the vets over the kids needs to be called out, because I’m putting this loss squarely on them. They were bad all game, but still getting leaned on, while the Kids line had sustained pressure and creating chances.

Also that Marner goal was impressive, they just gave up defensively. Reminded me of McDavid last year where they’re just swinging their sticks while a talented player makes them look like fools.

 

[I Eat Crow]

Game is 100% on gallant. You have a line absolutely dominating the game and you sit on them. While the other two lines are a mess

Guy doesn’t get it. Did they play at all the second half of the third period?!

Bet you the lines stay the same after 3 of the 4 were tire fires tonight

 

[BleedBlueNYR]

That’s a disgraceful way to lose.

 

[mike14]

I thought we played a pretty good game up until the last 10 minutes where we completely botched it. Not sure why you wouldn't start Fox in OT.
Kid line was very good but outside of Mika the vets did not have a good showing. Chytil deserved a hattrick.
CK has to bury that PP chance, and he and Panarin were just turnover machines.

1 pt is better than 0

Impressive by the Leafs to not take any judgement call penalties...

 

[GENESISPuck94]

Gallant will blame this loss on Kravtsov too somehow.

 

[CLW]

Im just curious how some will defend gallant.

Once again costs us a game.

He is a horrific coach

quoted for effect

people just hate the complaining even if it points at the obvious truth.

 

[Boris Zubov]

He's done. He needs new linemates that can carry him on their backs or a new club with less pressure.

He doesn't mesh with ANYONE. At some point he needs to look in the f***ing mirror & realize he's the f***ing problem.

 

[Richard Banger]

Yeah I’m done with gallant. His decision making is ridiculously bad.


My prediction. We get bounced out in the 1st round and Gallant gets fired.

 

[OrwellianNightmare]

And the double standard of kids having to "earn" their time and not the veterans continues.

I literally will ignore any poster who continues suggesting this when it was as clear as tonight and still didn't happen. f***ing bullshit. f*** Gallant.

 

[Machinehead]

Let's refrain from attacking each other

 

[Captain Lindy]

I think I heard Drury's head explode.

Boudreau AND Trotz are available. I'm so pissed right now.

 

[bl02]

when will this coach trust the kid line? How much better do they have to play? do they have to shine his shoes after every game?

 

[Kovalev27]

Weird how we fell a part in the last 10 mins of the game while the kid line was benched

 

[Whoot Whoot]

Kreider was terrible that game
