I am once again asking, even begging, Morgan Rielly to take the pass in a 2v1 situation
We really need woll back
Whatever. Couple of bounces either way and it’s a different game. We’re not gonna play well every night. Come April we’ll be in the playoffs and they’ll be two points further out from a good draft pick
Once the graphic came up that said Ottawa was ranked 31st in the penalty kill, it was game over
16 dances around gives a few sens players head nods does nothing of consequence and calls it a night

Treliving to do list 2024
A goalie
Two top 4 defencemen
A middle six winger
This was a loss before it began. Black jerseys, Ottawa, at home, after the Christmas break, Ottawa losing 5 games on the road in a row, Brady K 1 point away from 300
This team and core are just natural losers. They play down to opponents that they’re supposed to destroy. Losing games to Columbus, Chicago and Ottawa? Fucking pathetic, it’s why no one takes us seriously. Where is the kill will?
You could trade anyone on this team tomorrow and it would not bother me. Changes need to happen, else it’s just a circle of shit
honestly, i hate it cuz its the sens and this is their super bowl but at the end of the day we got goalie’d and the leafs played mid, but not awful. come out better next one see ya next game
This team is an embarrassment.
Pissed at myself for thinking it would be different this time.
So many sloppy plays in this game. Coaching staff needs to be fired outta a canon.
What is our record with those jerseys, I can’t imagine it’s a winning one.
I think it’s time to trade robby we need a dman and when did mccabe become our best offensive d lily needs to step up in his playmaking.
What is our record wearing the black jerseys? Every time I see they are wearing them I think they’re going to lose
Good thing there’s no bottom feeder teams in the playoffs… right………….. right? 😅
Always seem to play down to bad teams. Then we stomp the Rangers not long ago.
Fuck that game was embarrassing.
Played a great 1st period and just mailed it in the rest of the game. Lazy and unmotivated hockey. They need a coach that can motivate them and have them play the full 60 minutes every game.
Disappointing the next generation. Very fitting.
Fucking hate this team sometimes.
If you were to ask someone who doesn’t follow the Leafs to guess their record based on reddit comments after a loss, they’d think the team was at the bottom of the standings.
Marner mailed it in. What a hump.
The -2 is just that, the 2 is SOG, 50% on the draws.
16 M. Marner 0 0 0 -2 0 0 0 2 50% 22:51
Thanks for coming out Mitch. 🙁
Robertson must be traded. It just isn’t working here for him. Wasted ice time.
Finally – Keefe must go. Team wasn’t ready for the lame-ass Sens. Same song again.
Marner is having such a tough year to evaluate. His point totals aren’t bad at all, so on surface he looks more than fine. However, he just doesn’t look the same and the numbers back it up (per Natural Stat Trick);
Tavares this year with Marner – 45.56% expected goals share. Tavares with Nylander – 57.8% expected goal share.
Matthews with Marner – 49.8% expected goal share. With Nylander – 53.9% expected goal share.
Both lines control play less with Marner. Tonight, the Matthews / Marner line was at ~40% xGF against a bottom feeder team.
He’s still highly skilled and more than capable of putting up points / making those flashy plays. However overall, the puck is just in their end a lot more when hes on the ice than in other years. Really odd season so far. I think he has a lot more to give personally.
Played so good in the first period just to shit the bed in the next two #leafshockey
Game wasn’t that bad. Just wish some times our core would be more physical. Nothing like seeing three leafs in the corner trying to stick battle one Ottawa player. Like holy shit someone take the the body and the other two can get the puck wtf
If only we could’ve scored one of the 4 pucks that were sitting in the blue paint without a goalie.
Our D fucking sucks shit and gets worse and worse each game.
Imagine all of the stars on this team were held accountable for their play like Nylander is. If only.
Well that was poo poo
Hot Take: I don’t think Nylander resigns, hes going to want too much even with the cap increase.
I am so happy the Leafs don’t have to play the Detroit Pistons.
We’d help them out of their awful streak – just like everyone else.
Brodie terrible as usual.
Marner terrible as usual.
Do we think the team post game realize they played like shit for 40 minutes? Or do you think it’s a bunch of oh just shitty bounces etc?
This is the reason that even though this team finishes top 5 in the league every year they never finish 1st in the division.
They almost always play crap against the crap teams!!!
Quit after the first. Do better boys.
I need to stop prioritizing these rivalry games. Leafs rarely ever match the effort given by our opponents in these circumstances and it makes for an extremely frustrating viewing. Buffalo, Ottawa, Montreal, doesn’t matter where they’re at in the standings, they bring it every time while the Leafs coast like the games don’t mean anything.
Caged Mitch needs to return
Why don’t I bet on this team lmao? They’re so fucking predictable.
