lol. Okay. I’m all for sending messages but again, you need to do that during the regular season. Not game 1. If you want to send a message then fire the friggin coach who keeps getting out-coached! - Hockey_Reverend
or lose the players that keep getting out played |

The people who can eat crow are those who think the roster construction with the core of Matthews, Tavares, Nylander, and Marner could ever be a legitimate contender. - fifty__missions
so far this has proven to be true. They just can't get the job done when it matters. |

Willy left them no choice by the way he was playing down the stretch.
But I agree, Keefe is a dolt. |

Yeah they are so fed up with his play they benched him from practice too.
Butthurt troll. So wrong about Willy a few years ago and cannot let it go. |

Yes, you trade them away. You don’t sit 10 million on the sidelines in a war. |

I don't think there is a single Leaf fan in here that would construct a roster with those 4 at those cap hits. So who are you talking about?!? |

I am disappointed it's happening; it's sad to watch unfold. I know it's only one game so like.. who knows. But it's a rational belief that they will sink more than swim this series.
And if they do we can take a collective exhale knowing this era of the Leafs will be laid to rest.
I don't know if I trust Tre to be the one to guide us into the new direction, but I'm happy it will happen.
That or this is just game 1. and they have plenty of time to make a deep run. |

Are you (frank)ing serious? I've been talking about moving a core piece for about 6 (frank)ing years and gotten nothing but flamed by the vast majority of posters here minus a very few. |

Dumb (frank)ing hit by Reaves when he should have been covering and back checking, 2 dumb penalties trying to be tough = 3 goals GRIT. - jribout
Are you nuts?!
The problem isn't the grit, it's the systems KEefe and Dubas set in place for fancy hockey that doesn't work. Now none of these softees know how to play a rough game.
Also, besides the grit or not, every fuking player on this team tries to feed the puck to one of the Core 4 when they're on the ice that is what makes the Leafs are too predictable.
The last 10 games it was a game for Matthews to score. Everyone passed to him or tried really hard. Turnover or not. Get it to the "good guys" let them score and pad their stats.
This team is never a team. It's a bunch of "show me" guys trying to feed the regular season stats crew Core 4 and nothing else.
Keefe can't coach this team. Period.
A coach that doesn't give a flying fuk about their personal stats or whinning is who should be behind the bench.
A fuking coach that knows how to coach a "team" not a player's stats and kinda has a clue when to call of fuking time out....that's the coach I want.
They are great players on this team. This is not a great team. Maybe we should all stop pretending.
Fuk Keefe.
Fuk Brodie.
FU(C)K NYLANDER.
Fuk Shanatwat. |

What the hell are you talking about? I’m just saying that if they are sitting him (which the intermission panel just suggested) that is ridiculous. |

I can see them hanging in this series but unfortunately after 1 game they will still not have the goaltending. |

Would like to see at least one goal from the Buds. Need to get the monkey off their backs a bit. |

If Willy is benched, and I highly doubt he is. It would be because he did something, said something, or was late for a meeting/practice. Even then a player with that talent would usually only be benched for a period.
The problem with benching the player is the whole team pays for it. |

100% true.
I've been yammering on about it too. Just not as often. Still true though.
Way to stick to your guns 50! |

The problem is the dumb grit, the Richard swinging contest instead of smart hockey.

Neither of us.
But there’s a good chance I’m right. |
