Something something Rielly – Brodie and Sammy had a ROUGH one. The bells will haunt our dreams tonight. Frustrating loss.
Leafs hit 6 posts. The way she goes sometimes!
Please come back Marner
Robertson is done in this league.
Didn’t look great and fly guys very motivated. Not bad but too many mistakes. We need mitch back lol.
Tell 44 to remember he has no shot wtf
Wasted our time in the end.
Amazing how they can play shit for 50 minutes and then dial in the last 10 minutes just enough to barely lose.
What was that random spazz shot by rielly that gave up possession ? Smh
PP2 cost us the game. Hand grenade pass from Domi and terrible defense from Robertson
Before the doomers flood this remember we hit 6 posts and lost by 1.
Onto the next one
Matthews gets the limelight, but Mitch is our best and most valuable player
I guess we learned that Rielly and Brodie should never play together ever again
Also keep Liljegren on pp1. For whatever reason it just works
Didn’t show the replay if that was icing or not. Pretty big if it was.
6 posts though
Woah one of the most frustrating losses of the season followed by another even more frustrating loss, this time in regulation.
Tonight’s game was yet another perfect example of why Keefe should have been fired earlier this year. I remember a comment that said, “The best time to fire Keefe was after Montreal, the 2nd best is now.” How many more chances are we going to give this clown? If he isn’t gone following a no doubt disappointing performance in the playoffs again this year, I will be disappointed.
Rielly – Brodie. Called it before the game started. They’d be the biggest problem. Keefe. You have tried this combo enough that even my dog is aware it doesn’t fucking work. Stop. Please. It’s so bad.
1st line. Matthews is the best goal scorer in the league. Why are you putting him with two players that have less combined points than Matthews has goals? We’ve seen Nylander-Matthews be amazing in the past. Marner is out. Why do you panic and just say “fuck it” and throw random shit together? I legitimately can’t think of two players on this team worse suited for each other than Matthews and Bertuzzi. It looks like he pulled names from a hat.
There are other issues, 3rd line was a nightmare, not scratching Brodie or JT when theyve been unplayable for almost the entire season, etc…
Seriously. Aren’t we tired of being outcoached?
Can’t even be mad at that one. Even a smidge of puck luck would have made a difference.
Team could have played a lot better to start the game but I appreciate that they kept fighting in the third despite being down 3-0.
My stance on this team though remains the same – it’s a mid tier team.
Normally I don’t particularly like to rag on a certain player, but god Brodie has been awful. That Reilly-Brodie pair should never see the ice again.
Leafs should have scored 100 goals, what a wack game
Tough to win a game when your goalie allows 4 goals on < 30 shots (and < 2 xGA).
Stinker of a game for Sammy (even though everyone’s scapegoating an admittedly poor Rielly – Brodie pairing).
Fire Keefe
Mitchell “Engine” Marner
Still not convinced that the second philly goal wasn’t GI but can’t do much about it now. Into the next one and hopefully we get better puck luck
Crazy how Matthews gets so much credit for being an amazing 2 way player when Marner is leagues better defensively. Not to take anything away from Matty but its so clear.
I can hear Keefe now…
“We had 6 posts, if one of those go in its a different game”
“The powerplay had a ton of chances, if it goes in we are tied up”
“The other team played hard, got some bounces, if we play that game again then it might be in our favor next time”
Same quotes as the past 4 game 7’s.
LOL
Auston needs to be better, we can’t win games without marner if he isn’t scoring he needs to create shots for himself not just wait for a slick pass to find him in the slot.
Brodie-Rielly should never be a pairing ever again. Sit Brodie or Edmunson, I don’t care who, but Benoit should not sit.
Also, I hate how absolutely invisible Matthews is without Marner as his wingman. He’s going to be the highest paid player in the league next year and we’re graced with this.
I usually wait until next-day PGT after losses so I can cool off. But seriously, Rielly and Brodie should have large magnets attached to them, so they can never be paired together again. The 3rd period really did make this loss easier to swallow though, lol
That Nylander post was almost goal of the year. Good God.
Marner makes players he’s playing with better. Not sure if Matthews does that.
