With the Toronto Maple Leafs on a losing streak that consists of some pretty dramatic blown leads, Leafs Nation is in a panic. Is this panic warranted, or is it an overreaction to a bad stretch?
Not really, when you pay piss ants like Mitch Marner 10.9 per season, do not have a real goalie or a real defensive pairing, and theyāve given you no reason to believe they can win in the playoffs; itās not an over reaction.
It IS overreacting if ur looking at this one season. It IS NOT overreacting when u look at the last 5 years and say y are we sticking to a plan that's failed time and again?
None of these core players deserves what they are paid. None of them have done anything in any playoffs let alone win a Stanley Cup if they even make the playoffs. As far as I'm concerned, these players don't deserve any more than 1million a year. Prove how good you are in the playoffs, then we talk salaries. Regular season doesn't win cups.
It really is all about the massive playoff disappointments when the Leafs blow leads and lose playoff elimination games when they had the lead (like the 4 games just lost). šAfter years of decline since their Divisional Title – it is reasonable to expect the Leafs continue their struggles to hold onto a Wildcard spot. With massive payouts signed – the high paid Leaf forwards do not have an incentive to play excellent defensive games required for team success. They arenāt capable to do so. So Leaf fans might just anticipate another 8 years of the same.
Yes everyone is a lot lol but that's typical of this market when they win its amazing when they lose sky is falling. Any other team wouldn't receive this much attention for a losing streak especially from a team that hasn't lost like this since 2021 its comical. But luckily I'm a level headed leaf fan for which I'm glad the team and Keefer are the same thank goodness they aren't as erratic as the media and fans

all these guys wanted their cake and they haven't been able to add any depth!
I dislike this core with a passion!
No offence but Theyāre fans are just overreacting, they donāt know that they are getting a boost literally in February and March.
No. They keep saying they're different…they're not. Same team, same warts, same money given to the same guys who don't show up when needed. No.
common Marty Brion yap session
thats a dumb question. Leafs fans overreact to everything. Its a given.
No, they aren't. They're simply reliving the past 20 years.
Tsn really needs to kick this guy out the door
Leafs' peaked last year. This year's team is very average.
Nope not at all I see the dysfunctional problems

With what it costs to go and see the Maple leafs anything short of storming the ACC January 6th style is fair game lol fuck this team.
Let's face it, if you didn't foresee this even before the season starting you're on some HARD drugs…

Toronto's one of the only markets that pays a home town premium
