I mean, there are rumors that he has a concussion, that's a pretty legit excuse.

A concussion and he has been skating the past 3 days or so?

Keefe needs to focus on what his team is doing...and not doing.
- fifty__missions


Don’t disagree. The lack of special team success seems to have him totally lost.

I assume he got to pick his assistant coaches but maybe not? If not that would suck and he is starting to feel like a guy who has one of his direct reports who is next in line for his job and is a bit vapour locked as a result.

I feel like the effort is there from this team but as others have said here (like Monkey) the system(s) are just very ineffective.

That’s coaching but is it Keefe or Boucher or the other special teams coaches?

Won’t matter if Keefe goes they all go.

And Oilers are being Leafy now. Give up one 3 min in and now as 2nd with 5 min left in the 1st to go down 2-0.

Speaking of quiet buildings that place is quiet now.

You’ve posted a lot of stupid poop here but this might just be the stupidest.

I wish we had players who played when they had a concussion? Seriously?

- Cush29


You missed the point again. Not surprised.

I wish everything wasn’t so leafy, yes.

Not interested in your annoying attitude tonight so don’t respond.

You should know by now I’m ALWAYS charitable to goalies. Lol

I’m listening to Keefe’s post game and he’s struggling not to get fined talking about Marchand. If I was him honestly I’d just ask Shanny if I can go off and have MLSE cover my fine. lol

- Cush29

If I were him I’d ask shanny for a goalie. We’re never gonna win with goaltending like that. He hasn’t had to make acrobatic saves or rebound saves. Almost every bruin shot was from the outside and then he lets one in that made him look like his head wasn’t even in the game.

Why would you get flamed for something so obvious? I thought this was common knowledge

Whatever that’s going on it’s leafy and it sucks.

What other team has this going on?

Like ffs I’d rather they just say he’s out for the series.

The only thing that gets that barn going is a Reaves hit

You sure that wasn't say... after end of 1st period?

These weren't scalpers tickets. I used to line up for 2 days to get playoff tickets back then. No Ticketmaster back then. You could only get them at the Gardens.

Trying to wrap my head around that one too. Maybe we're dealing with more than one concussion around here.

You are missing the point.

Other teams have players fighting to play with broken bones and concussions.

Our players force themselves out.

It’s just leafy, as fans all that matters are wins.

And what’s even better is the whole world knows it by now and they still won’t say anything.

No Santo yet again you don’t get to dictate who responds to your stupidity on here.

You said what you said - you wished players played with concussions. That’s just (frank)ing stupid.

Not surprised you are now trying to move goalposts - it’s what you do.

I’m not interested in your super arrogant attitude as usual or your BS “so don’t bother replying”.

See how childish that sounds?

But you will reply because you are the insecure loser who can’t stand not getting the last word in. So go ahead and move those goalposts and reply away I’m done with you now - you are dismissed.

The leafs have to be *different* because of the media.

The funny part is it makes the media even worse so they are playing themsleves.

It's pretty clear now it's a neck/head injury or concussion.

Keefe. Literally. Said. It.

It’s up to Willy if he wants to play.

MT tried to hide his broken sternum.

Krug never said a word about his concussion.

AGAIN read. I don’t expect players to play through injuries, life is more important than hockey.

It’s just hilarious and leafy that our players do this and others have no care for their health and try to play for this silly cup.

It’s just leafy, that’s it.

We did not lose that game nor game 1 due to goaltending.

Goaltending has not been the reason the Leafs have lost a playoff series in a long time.

Getting a better / top tier goaltender would be nice of course but there are bigger issues here - systems, coaching, roster construction in relation to salary are all bigger issues IMO.

A top tier goalie doesn’t fix those issues and guarantee a winning playoff team.

See Rangers with Lundy, Preds with Rinne or Habs with Price as 3 prime examples.

I've said this in here and gotten flamed. Glad there are others who agree.

Someone that's been to Leafs games since the late 60's, I've seen how it works. The corporate's would buy the tickets, write them off as an entertainment expense, sell them for a profit to the scalpers and make out like bandits. Out of 16,416 seats, 12, 500 were season tickets at Maple Leafs Gardens. Didn't leave much for the average sports fan. It's why I hate the Corporate pigs for getting paid and making it very expensive to see a Leafs game.
