CAN THE LEAFS FORGE A COMEBACK PATH?



With their season on the line heading into Game 4, the Maple Leafs are in a must-win situation, with their top players still unable to find the back of the net. TSN Hockey Insiders Pierre LeBrun and Chris Johnston join TSN Maple Leafs reporter Mark Masters to weigh in on Toronto’s star problem and where the team can start to mount a comeback.

  1. Toronto doesn't even have a goalie…Should've kept Campbell. But their management is awful.

  2. 8 Leafs took their Golf clubs with them, they are staying away from the Media, Sportsnet Talking Heads are Morons

  3. I’d love they so yes but it’s not happening. That’s what happens when 4 guys is half your salary cap.

    I’m lost for words! This whole thing is F’N messed up.

    If they pull it off good on them but I seriously doubt it! 🤬

  4. Floridiots fans should chant, “GO START THE BUS “
    Leafs should go get in the bus, then go home eh?
    Or Leaf’s win next twelve games and raise the cup! Go Leafs!

  5. Leafs are chockers. We all thought them going pass the first round they would be free and play well but no they went back to their usual.

  6. The two newest teams to the nhl, Vegas and Seattle are teams made up of players left unprotected yet are better and go further in the playoffs than Leafs.what does that tell you about how Leaf management assess hockey talent over the last 50 years?

  7. I would trade Matthews and Marner to Chicago for the 1st pick. I mean today so they can't play game 4.

  8. Theres also the fact, save for for first 3-0 comeback in 1942, the team with home-ice advantage hasn't been able to force 7th game at home. The closest any higher-seed team came to forcing a game 7 from 3-0 down, was the 2008 San Jose Sharks, who forced a Game 6 and lost in 4OT to Dallas.

  9. This is a perfect example of how much the same player's the same way as you saw them in the playoffs for years. This is a coaching problem. How many games have they've played with no changes to the first line. You got to get the player that will change the style and design of how to make it work. If they can't carry the puck in and physically can't dump it in and have success what is the best way to give us the balance. You use the old way put accairri on the first line. He will provide what is needed for this to work. They then have a guy who will physically take out the defense man who will be pressured to get the puck and find a player to get it to and take a beating every time they dump it in. I'm telling you mistakes will happen this is the only way to get Mathews and Marnier going.they will have the room and they won't be tired of having to go in and get the puck and then turn around and get back to defend

  10. As the Kraken this year and performances recently of the Canadiens and Vegas going to the finals in their first year, it’s about desire,will and grit.
    The Leafs have none of this under their core group under the Shanaplan era.
    Tons of talent and skill,
    None of grit and will.
