We need to talk about the absolutely unacceptable playoff perfomance of the Toronto Maple Leafs as we recap Game 4 of the Boston Bruins vs the Toronto Maple Leafs
I don’t know what to say about tonight’s Toronto Boston game like I genuinely do not this did not feel like a hockey game I said this in the past this felt like a Kafkaesque nightmare the Toronto map Leafs with allegedly the greatest goal scorer on the planet did not feel like they were doing anything but playing in a game which had a predetermined outcome I’ve got a lot of leafes die hards in my life I’ve got a lot of Boston fans as well pretty much everyone agreed this wasn’t a game this was embarrassing for the Toronto Maple Leafs I’ve said this before but going into the series I thought the forwards of the Maple Leafs matched up really well against those on Boston I thought the Leafs would dominate play but struggle with Goal tending the leavs didn’t have chances tonight nobody was generating and alling leaf fans want to blame Ryan Reeves because he contributed to the first goal Reeves got pinched it was a great decision by the dman the punk was going to be turned over either way he probably should not have thrown it towards the middle of the ice but maybe samsonov could make a single goddamn save in his life the dude is terrible he’s nice and aggressive he’s got the positioning he’s got the angle set up make a save seriously on the other hand it’s not just Samson off because the leaf are letting him out to dry how are you going to blame that third goal on him switched to Joseph wall is he going to start for checking as Joseph wall going to make the Leafs finally do the dump and Chase against the Bruins perhaps instead of these lame M Zone entries that don’t work according to money Punk tonight the leaves had 1.5 basically expected goals you’re not going to win in the NHL with 1.5 expected goals certainly not against the Boston Bruins who have two goalies better than anything you have in your system Matthews is sick whatever what’s marner’s excuse what’s JT’s excuse what’s Neil Anders excuse how have the coaches not done anything it’s just bad I feel so bad for leaf fans because this is a team which should be good but it’s just a black hole of opportunity tear it down and try again that’s it also I like n keep him as well by the way 0 and3 on the pp tonight great stuff add that to the series record

Leaf Me Alone!
They wanted Pizza² instead of playing hockey. BTW, watch Dallas go out and guess what? You'll get your Stanley Cup coach. Peter Debour.
John Tavares (the Leafs one's uncle) won the 2023 NLL championship coaching the Buffalo Bandits (they're looking to repeat as we speak), then another in the summer coaching the Six Nations Chiefs. @darrylsmart1 just uploaded a documentary of the latter with locker room footage and everything, it's awesome. The Leafs need to bring the elder JT into the locker room to give these guys an idea of what it takes to win in the playoffs from a guy who has won what? 9 Mann Cups and 6 Champions Cups? Because they don't have it…
Leafs are alright, just struggling to get it together at an in-opportune time.
Trade one of the megastar mega paid big 4 for picks and bottom 6 guys…you need depth and can’t spend half your cap on 4-5 dudes.
Auston reaves is mad asss bruh dude can’t barely do anything bruh on the ice
❤❤❤❤❤❤Come on people, Toronto can do this. ❤❤❤❤S
I dont care if they lose, Who cares, Matthews and Nylander and Marner are STILL the best in the game . Their plays are the msot beautiful Hockey ever , The goals by Matthews MORE than Ovehckin had in YEARS , he does it like its No problem , Much more awesome than Marchand or whatever , Like i said i DONT care. Leafs ARE the best..!
Give Brad Merchand credit he has more experience with the playoffs and stanley cup than any hockey player on both leafs and Boston it will take a miracle to win this series
can we talk about how shitty Sportsnet is compared to tnt why does sn only talk about Toronto this & Toronto that like id like to hear & see more about what's happening in Vancouver or Edmonton but they only talk about Toronto it's so old
They just wanted to go to the golf course
They have talent but there the cowboys of the nhl when the playoffs start they go into hiding they cant win to save there lives i have very little faith they can make it a 7 game series but hope for the best and pray they get there heads out of there asses and actually play some playoff hockey
Panthers vs Avalanche cup final
I don't even remember the score but I turned it off after the 5th failed drop pass in the neutral zone. I cant watch it anymore
When will Mathew and Marner step the fuck up?
Never, they are in vacation mode just like every playoff they ever been.
Every Leaf alumni could put an even an ounce of motivation than them in these playoff games
Marner should get traded in the offseason if they lose game 5
This is funny, leafs have been losers since 67 and their fans are shocked? Just shows how stupid the fan base is. Pathetic bunch😅
Leafs are still not a complete team. They don't have the chemistry to go deep or win the Cup. Toughness and aggressive physical play is still a missing necessary ingredients. Look at Florida for a model. They don't have the skill Toronto has, but are a better team.
washed up since 1967
I thought when they got rid of Babcock they brought in Keefe as an interim coach and would get someone in the offseason. Years later he is still there and can't manage an incredible roster who will probably go on to other teams and win cups. Treviling has been an improvement and I was thrilled when they moved on from Dubas who really handcuffed this team. Why aren't they playing Martin Jones? He Led the Sharks to the Stanley Cup finals and has more experience than either Samsonov or Woll. This team has been so badly mismanaged for so long.
I'm a Leafs fan, a TRUE leafs FAN, and I'm saying the other "Leaf Fans" don't deserve this team. True fans stick behind a team no matter what, these "Fans" will literally BOO their own team! The Leafs don't owe these fans ANYTHING. Theres a reason why no one wants to play for the Leafs, it's because the Fanbase and the Media are so damn toxic. If you mess up once, you're automatically labled as a locker room cancer and the worst leaf of all time, but if you do good, oh you're the savior of the franchise. The Leafs are not shit, why do the fans think this? Honestly, I hope they do lose in game 5, because the Fans need to learn that their bitching and whining isn't going to do anything.
The "Leaf Fans" are just Leaf haters that buy the merch
Mitch shit his pants again ….stop crying bro
gotta love Sheldon Keefe for always mixing the lines up and taking our best guys off the ice only 50 seconds into a powerplay
Dump and chase?? Leafs won't do that because they'll get hit. Every team does it to them because they won't get hit.
😂 The only thing that will top off this bungled up season is Matt Rempe being traded to the Leafs lmao 🤣
@Eck WTF are you smoking?!?! They're not a disgrace!!! Now the toilet seats aka the habs they are a disgrace!!! 😏😎😈
Well that discrace has won 2 of 3 in Boston
Which is the original eck channel?
Not tonight they weren't
Turns out you need stone woll to win games. An an Arizona native named Mathew
I was actually in a hockey tournament in Boston Massachusetts and on the day of this game, I was in a restaurant/bar type place with my coaches family checking out Boston and what not and we were the only Canadians in a sea of bruin fans I felt so out of place lmao 🤣.
Yeah, but….. Game 6?
It is hard for me to find any sympathy for the fans as this nonsense has been going on since this core arrived in Toronto. A leader and star player acts and produces the way Marchand and Pasternak do. They will do anything to win and it shows on the scoresheet. This team needs to be blown up starting with Mitch Marner and Brendan Shanahan. Shanny had a plan it didnt work now step aside and let others with playoff success take over. Nothing will change, if nothing is changed. It doesnt take a professional analyst to unravel that mystery. The current overpaid stars in Toronto are nothing more than a soft, soft team who are afraid of pressure. The inconsistency speaks volumes to this fact. So dont put up with it or take what they have given you.
Leafs can eat my shorts
4 days later and we're headed to game 7.
leafs pushed it to game 7
GAME 7 BABY
Just keep silent then.
Look at them now baby, go leafs go
