Shannahan is the ONE common denominator. HE HAS TO GO
I'm a Red Wing fan, Maple Leaf fans deserve SO MUCH MORE THAN THIS MANAGEMENT AND TEAM. Your passionate BUT quit buying the dream of this organization. The players quit, Keefe has to go…..don't plan any parades for at least 10 yrs.
shanahan is a fail .. MLSE is a fail .. this is year 9 of a 5 year plan .. obviously they did not build a playoff team, we have a small group of playoff capale players .. trade matthews first and foremost .. keep nylader
Huge changes should have happened 3 years ago. Worst run organization in sports
Get a #1 goalie who doesn’t get hurt!! As soon as I heard Sammy was in net, I knew he wasn’t going to win. He’s great 90% of the time then let’s in a soft one. Why do we think Washington let him go after we beat them? We had a chance to draft wayman and didn’t. If any of the idiots are still on leafs management! Fire them! Woll is awesome! He just can’t stay healthy! It wasn’t the Cores fault we lost, it was terrible backend play! Did anyone else notice Riley was on the ice for both of Bostons goals?
Pajama Boy
Shanahan – gone! Keefe and his entire staff – gone! Marner – gone (sits every night until he accepts a trade)!. Tavares – suck it up for the last year of the contract and then – gone!
Of course Keefe should've been fired after 2021!
Joel Quenville is the coach to go after
Bad News Buds
The Leafs would be very foolish to trade Marner. He may not score as much as people would like, but he is great during the regular season and really helps the Leafs reach the playoffs. Without him in the regular season, they may not even make the playoffs. They will never get equal value for him in a trade. Keep Marner.
The Core Four have to be changed. Matthews and Nylander showed their stuff these playoffs. Taveres played well but was well good enough. Marner just doesn't to show up enough of the times in the playoffs….certainly not enough when they were without Nylander or even Matthews. Bertuzzi and Domi showed their stuff these playoffs, as did Knies. Edmundson and McCabe showed they belong with their play. Reilly was okay. Woll was lights out best goalie.
But too much $ tied up in the Core Four to keep trying for another "wait until next year" approach. Ultimately it is not about regular season records but playoff results.
So what changes need to be made? Despite their no-trade clauses new homes need to be found for Marner and Taveres. Free up some $ for some better defensemen & for true first string goalie (and maybe not Markstrom) while Woll is backup. Make Matthews Captain. Use Marner and Taveres to get some of missing pieces in trades. Use saved $ to resign Domi and Bertuzzi….and definitely keep Edmundson and McCabe….bye bye to Giordano and Brodie. Let Treliving do some magic and add his fingerprints to this team….add grit…..get a new coach as Keefe hasn't gotten them there in too many tries…..and maybe Shanny your time is up and so is your 'plan'.
No trade clause this year so nothing going to happen maybe coach gone .Mathews did nothing in playoff no more then marner
Reilly needs to go also he is so weak defensively.
If we had woll in net we would not have lost
Did Mathews play game 7. Pretty sure I saw Marner out there. Knies and Domi were everywhere. The Leafs did not play the way they did when Mathews was out. They had grit and desire! No grind in game 7. Just went through the motions.
Another disappointing ending.
Every year big changes are coming but nothing changes
Trade Marner to Pitts ( Dubas), lift his clause and go play with Crosby. ShanaPlan is over. Shana & Keefe should go. Trade Tavares in 2025 early. Start rebuilding from Def up.
Matthews can score goals in the regular season. Where has he been in the playoffs? Okay, he was sick or injured for this series but historically, he disappears. JT had a decent regular season but not much happening against Boston. Domi was killing it with face off wins and heart. Nylander stepped up with a few goals but he can't carry the whole team. I think he could make a good captain when JT leaves. As a Boston fan, Pasta and crew will have to bring their A game to get past Florida. My money is on the Panthers to win the cup. As long as the NHL exists, the Make Beliefs will never bless their long suffering fans with a cup parade. 💣🚽💩🪦⚰️
You guys think Mathews did so much in the playoffs no more then marner 4 points to 3 wow .Marner is the best play maker toronto has and Mathews gets most his goals from marner but none of the 4 are worth the money there getting they should all take pay cuts so we can put a winning playoff team in the ice .Marchand makes a little more then 6 million a year and brings it every game in your face .So what does that say for our over payed 4 .😅
I'll bet you Dale Hunter will be the Leafs' next head coach!
Not a leaf fan but Tavares best player.
Shanahan the first to go followed by Keefe
TML can make all the changes they want. The coffers are full year after year. The seats are paid for even if the ticket holders do not show up to the game. Fans have to hit TML in the pocket book. Stop buying leafs merchandise, dump your leafs TV, if you go to the game, buy nothing while there. All that will not happen and the rally cry will be 'wait until next year'.
I think it's crazy the way the Leafs fans have reacted to this loss. It took a great team like the Leafs to come back from a 3-1 deficit to force a game 7. When you go to OT it's pretty much a coin toss. Unfortunately, for Toronto the toss didn't go their way but for the fan base to scream about getting rid of everyone is just insane
Pettersson for Marner straight across.
What they need to do is put all five of the core guys on injured reserve, get players to play for them till the playoffs start and then be 50 million over the cap during the playoffs. Then the core five can make the core ten.
Start with Keefe. After 82 games, he was still screwing around with the lines. Core 4 needs a shakeup as well, but I go back to the coaching decisions. I've proposed to move Marner for more than a year. He was pitiful in last year's playoff, and no better this year either.
if only he had got 70
Trade the core 4. Not like the leafs are gunna win with a core 3…
