"They ****ed up so bad and couldn't score 1 goal on a 5-on-3?
Tavares on a break away...
What the **** did we pay all this money for?"
_______________
**** the leafs. They should never have made JT captain. He skates slow so everyone else thinks it means they don’t have to go 100% cause their captains 100% is like their 60%
_______________
Took Lou a year and a half to rid this organization of it's loser mentality. Took Dubas a year and a half to bring it back.
Keefs defensive system and Dubas' d corps are pure garbage.
________________
Must be a **** team when your captain leads the collapse with all those goals against and missed breakaways.
________________
How could I be so blind. This is Andy’s fault. The team tried so hard in front of him.
JT’s too nice to tell 34/88/18/24/15 to “get their **** together”. Just look at how SJ broke their second round barrier after they stripped Jumbo of the C

Leafs fans are hilarious blaming the coaching staff when they have a GM who thinks he is running a fantasy team. They overpaid for a few forwards, have a starting goalie who doesn’t want to start 60-65 games per year and don’t bring in at least a serviceable backup, and have no money for defense. What did they expect to happen?

Just watched the highlights of that Leafs game... Well, the highlights had all the good and bad of John Tavares, didn't it? He's still puck-watching (instead of getting his man) in the defensive zone. It's kind of crazy how much better Barzal is at 22 defensively, already.
Defence doesn’t show up in the spreadsheets so I don’t think it’s a focus of the Leafs.
In addition to being lazy in back checking on the first goal, he seems to float to the boards and extend unnecessarily on Gaudreau's goal. I can't help but think that that move was exactly counter to everything that Trotz's teaches. He chases the puck to the boards and leaves the high slot wide open - exactly where he should have been. At least where I think he should have been.
Also, is Anderson known for having a suspect glove? It may just be one game, but I think he got beat 3 or 4x glove side.

His game looks like it belongs more on the wing rather than at center at this point.
I don't know that he should have been at the high slot, but I think he should definitely not let the puck get to the high slot. In other words, he should look at the players around the puck, see he's going to get beat, and take away the passing lane. But his focus was only on the puck. And yeah, I think that's precisely what Trotz teaches *not* to do.
Wing/center doesn't matter as much anymore. Regardless of position, he had the wrong priorities.

Thought this was pretty funny on the Leafs thread about Dubas:
"This bashing of Petan is baffling, considering he's been arguably our best 4th line guy all year other than Spezza and maybe Engvall."
I wonder if the poster eventually gets it.

The Leafs are 6-4 under Keefe with Anderson playing every game. There’s a real good chance that they miss.

He's played 9 of 10. Hutchinson lost to the Sabres 6-4. But... your point still stands.

About now Tavares must be realizing that he fell for a line of **** during Dubas' sales job at his agent's office in June 2018....
Somebody slip a spoon under Lou’s nose to see if he’s still breathing.
If they miss, they'll be 23 million into Pajama Boys contract with a first round knockout and a playoff miss to show for it. How delicious that would be.
So good it would earn a Michelin Star.

Botts could certainly make up for all his idiocy by suckering either of those teams to take the ebola virus of defensemen Bogo. Seriously, he's Brian Strait level terrible at this point. The trade people think will happen is him to the Pens for Chucky because it's two players neither team wants with similar expiring contracts so it works cap wise.
