    New coach. Now.

    That is all. And all that can be reasonably done right now.

  4. AduroPinquis

    Special teams and goaltending were our downfall tonight. 

  5. ElDobre97

    We shot ourselves in the foot more than anything. Canucks didn’t impress me overall. An exciting game until the questionable sequence of penalties. Tons of overreactions but I wouldn’t be clamoring for any firings. It’s a long season with many ups and downs. The sun will rise tomorrow.

  6. Strange_Cap1049

    Sadly Keefe won’t get fired now because cause we actually came back

  8. BravoBet

    6 goals on 21 shots

    Bad penalties

    This team needs work.

  9. PM_STOCKS_TO_BUY

    powerplay and man advantage cost us the game. at least it was a fun game

  10. 51NN3D

    I’d like to see what a fresh set of eyes would do with this team

  11. djerok55

    Stupid F’ing game. We need Woll and a new coach so bad

  12. dres_sler

    Dogshit first period killed us.

    Happy with the effort tho. Hopefully we can win tomorrow

  13. GooseRider960

    How tf do you not get one goal on a fucking 6 on 5/4/3

  14. Svalbard38

    4-6 loss and we wildly outshot them. I’m not happy about this game but I have trouble getting *too* upset.

  15. crushade

    We’ve got a lot of problems. Special teams is one of the biggest issues. Our structure is broken too. Coach???

  16. Pencil_of_Colour

    Buddy just posted a sub .750 and some mans will be talking all about the defence.

  18. twizzyflyguy

    Bull shit officiating tonight, we got cross checking calls but they didn’t ? Fuck off

  19. StaticR0ute

    More than doubled their shot total tonight. 6 goals on 21 shots though, tough to outscore that.

  20. frmacleod

    It’s a flawed roster. Tre has some heavy lifting to do before the deadline.

  21. Papa_Cheese

    Damn it would be nice to have goaltending like that

  22. branchoflight

    We really putting the special in special teams

  23. Volderon90

    Gonna watch Bills tomorrow, put the kids to bed and then probably start Last of Us 2 remastered for a third play through.  Not worth it to watch these guys right now 

  24. think_long

    Anyone else sigh audibly when Tavares had a clear lane to the net and fired a weak wrister from far out instead?

    I think they have to do a retool until that abomination of a contract is done.

  25. reignleafs

    I hope those that made fun of the fire shanny/keefe posts eat their words. This ain’t a real team. Exciting yes, but shit isn’t good enough guys. They didn’t start on time again. Get some standards ffs

  26. waitareyou4real

    I’m still so riled up because of the Nylander laziness on the penalty kill

  27. whatamidoing_2521

    Sucks to suck man.

    Should have started the game on time.

    Special teams NEED to be better than that.

    God, this team is just amazing when they’re trailing and can cheat for offense.

  28. Mrfantastic2

    They have that little faith in their 3.5 million goalie that they had to overplay Martin Jones… that’s all I can think of and of course Keefe and management

  29. DrinkMoreBrews

    They have an incompetent coach, They have no defense, They have no goaltending, They have next to no secondary scoring, They have no powerplay, They have no penalty kill, And they have no playoff spot

  30. ointmentisafunnyword

    Our defence is garbage. No way they can go deep in the playoffs like this.

  31. Game-83-and-on

    FIRE KEEFE !!!!

    This team needs a shake up NOW

  32. allusions14

    Pontus experiment on the first line needs to end, out of his depth.

  33. RollandInTheDeep

    It really pains me to say this but the team just simply isn’t good enough this year, we’ll still make the playoffs I’m sure but this team isn’t a cup contender with the current d core and goaltending

  34. leafsruleh

    The amount of Canucks fans in the GDT talking shit is wild. They have such an inferiority complex despite their team being in 1st

  35. Baron_Wobblyhorse

    That was *WAY* better than anyone could’ve anticipated for a TOR-VAN game under the circumstances. Frustrating as all hell that fucking Demko played his balls off at the end, but the last 40 minutes were entertaining as anything.

    If it wasn’t so close to the end of the Week Where Everyone Loses Their Fucking Minds For No Really Good Reason it would be chalked up to “we played the best team in the NHL and lost an entertaining match.”

  36. Significant_News_638

    I really feel like they need to simplify their defensive zone coverage. They’re trying to play this hybrid coverage where they play man low in the defensive zone, then swap to zone up high. It leads to defensemen chasing forwards high up in the zone and puts a ton of pressure on the forwards to cover. It also leads to a ton of switches and moving parts.

    The leafs just have way too many forwards who are weak defensively to play this style system. I’m not sure it would even work with a strong defensive group. St Louis fans constantly complained about Mike Van Ryns systems and were happy when he was fired. Taking defensive responsibility away from Dean Chynoweth after the leafs were top 8 in the league in goals against last year made really no sense

    Would love to see them go back to a simple zone (which they played last year – played a “swarm” defense where they protected the slot and swarmed the corners to force turnovers) or a man to man system. Way too many prolonged offensive zone times due to leafs playing soft and constantly switching / losing their man.

  37. toronto_programmer

    People are going to say it is only one game, but we have been saying that for a while.

    We currently sit 4th in the Atlantic with the Wings hot on our heels. We are battling now for a WC spot with a field of teams a point or two back in the race

    At what point exactly do we hit the panic alarm here?

  38. Woullie_26

    34 year old Martin Jones can’t play every game since Christmas

  39. joerph713

    The refs have to be trolling the leafs. After the Non-call cross checking against Matthews the other game they call 2 extremely soft ones that both should have come with embellishment penalties. In a tied game in the 3rd period… unreal.

  40. TiredReader87

    Told you Jones sucks. This team also doesn’t want to win.

    #FireKeefe

    #FireShanny

  41. fluffedahiphopbunny

    I know a good chunk of us want Keefe gone (myself included) but man Trevling was a fucking mistake.

  43. Sleazy_T

    Domi line got completely caved all night.

    On a positive note, McCabe/Liljegren looked great together and I hope that continues.

  44. Francis33

    Robertson continuing to sit while Bertuzzi has 1 goal in 25 games is fucking shocking

  45. omgArsenal

    Giordano also needs to sit for the season. The pizza up the middle and penalty he took killed the game.
