    Opponent first NHL goal ✓

    Former Leaf goal ✓

  2. Does anyone else notice that every other team clears the puck when they’re under pressure, but Keefe likes to keep possession which leads to our D getting fucking destroyed on the forecheck?

    Schenn literally came to this team and said we needed to play more simple, was our 2nd best D in the playoffs, and left.

  3. The-Only-Razor

    Losing the game off a goal with 2 mins left to Engvall is just about the worst way I think we could have lost that game.

  4. IlikeTurtles1308

    It’s Unbelievable how many times the leafs can get trolled from former guys don’t do shit against anyone else. Just fucking joke.

  5. ElephantShell34

    Can we have another All Star break? It was actually so nice not having to think about this absolutely fucking pathetic hockey team. 

  6. Samurai1221

    How many times are we going to give up a regulation goal with less than 2 minutes left ?

  7. riniwheats_

    Captain gets cross checked and piled on and Matthews does fuck all lol

  8. CryptoWithCxdy

    I just want to say with every game I love Benoit more and more.

  9. e1744a525099d9a53c04

    Edmonton fires their coach and wins 100 million games in a row. It’s not even about Keefe at this point, the team just needs a shakeup.

  10. Fuuutuuuree

    I’m not even watching, but I STG I saw the Leafs get the late PP on the NHL app and thought: they’re gonna tie it, and immediately give it back up. Of course it’s Engvall too

  11. Anyone have that meter that says who should’ve actually won? Feels like it could’ve been 99% Leafs 1% Isles

  12. Honestly, I thought they played pretty well 🤷🏻‍♂️ Definitely had the better chances of the two imo

  13. BluePearlGaming

    Isles could be the ones to kick us out of the playoffs too…

  14. Showtime98

    Boys played good for most of the game, but it sucks to lose games like these especially with the way the season has been. Oh well on to the next one.

  15. gekkolord

    Skate the fuck out of Rielly for that giveaway at the end

  16. mycousinvinny99

    I’m so sick of losing to those fucks and their white trash fans….

  17. buktee123

    I hate how inferior teams are allowed to muck it up and the whistles just go away. Whatever, it’s a monday night game in February. Can’t get too mad. Glad most of our D aren’t signed beyond this year

  18. MyNameWouldntFi

    Team sucks this year as a whole. Are we ever going to stop getting bullied at 5on5?

  19. GooseRider960

    I mean, it’s an Islanders loss, that blows, but we weren’t playing badly either. I’m not too upset. Onto the next.

    Benoit is a fucking beauty by the way.

  20. aapoquidam

    The Islanders broadcast showed Cal Clutterbuck taking a cheap shot on Tavares at the end there, and then when Tavares gets mauled all that happened to Clutterbuck was Matthews whispering in his ear. I wish they would stick up for each other

  21. Patrickbrown45

    I absolutely hate the lack of effort by liljegren on that second goal. Fuck I hate losing to the islanders and they’re shitty fan base

  22. dwnumber1

    2 -2 game what does mo do. No look pass up the boards immediate turnover and gameover.

  23. Sammy was ok but Sorokin was great. Playoff undertones.

  24. Tegridy_Farmer_420

    They played well… I’m not mad about this! Great effort from Sammy and Benoit. Team battle dhard, but unfortunately couldn’t keep the score even.
    See you on Wednesday! #GoLeafsGo

  25. stellosartois

    All games must be played as playoff games” – Keefe.
    That wasnt even a playoff team…

  26. Leafs will beat a good Dallas team on Wednesday, get embarrassed by Ottawa and call it a week.

  27. HairyManHairyPlan

    My opinion (which I know is worth dick), you stand pat and don’t really sell or buy at the deadline. The team isn’t bad enough to ship everything out but they aren’t playing well enough to send out a Minten, Cowan, or draft picks.

  28. Sorokin played like his life depended on it. Which, with Roy as his coach he may very well be…

  29. LowHangingLight

    Nylander was awful tonight. The guy needs to inject some sort of physicality into his game. Constantly losing puck battles left and right.

  30. Carparker19

    Sheldon Keefe is fucking dog shit as a head coach. We’ve known this for years. This org fucking sucks.

  31. Sucks to lose to the Islanders, but I thought they played well tonight overall. Exited for more hockey coming up this week

  32. Hustler17

    Glad to see no one blaming Samsonov for this one.

    We have some serious defensive issues from the system, to the forward effort, to the payroll on D.

  33. Mrfantastic2

    Sucks to lose to the islanders but I don’t think they played bad. Domi, reaves, Benoit were pretty good, nylander was just off all game like I haven’t seen in a while. Sammy was decent but sorokin was better. Mo with a brutal play though on the winning goal

  34. Opening_Argument_927

    This year is a bust. Not sure how you fix the team with these contracts but it’s so obvious they’ve take a big step backwards .. not a consistent stretch of good hockey yet.

  35. They either miss the playoffs or scratch and claw their way in as a a wildcard. Both options will bring about change to the way this team is constructed going forward 

  36. FlySociety1

    It’s all about the details, something we’ve continually lacked under Keefe.
    Tonight it was the Reilly backhand clearing attempt up the boards with 2 minutes left.

  37. twizzyflyguy

    *Check schedule*
    *sees stars & sens*

    Yup we are fucking losing the next 2 games

  38. FogDucker9

    Man our fans suck sometimes, yeah it would be nice to win them all but fuck me. The team actually played a decent game all round, we lose by a goal and it’s like the world is falling…
