If there was ever any indication of the pressure the Maple Leafs are feeling heading into a possible season-ending Game 4 on Wednesday against the Panthers, you would need to look no further than the different moods inside both team’s locker rooms. TSN Maple Leafs reporter Mark Masters joins Jay Onrait to paint the contrasting picture for the two clubs.

“We want Florida!” .. the fairy four aren’t going nowhere
Ah the Leafs "tuning out outside noise," – it's not like them to confront a few home truths.
Hopefully Florida can finish off the Maple Leafs so we don't have to hear about Toronto anymore.
Belief. More like Be-Leaf. Shrivel up and hit the golf course.
Well for Toronto this is it or it's over for a long long time , Cap hell , zero significant draft picks and Matthew's has a decision to make , media won't say it tho , plus to add to everything there is 3 teams knocking on that playoff door with Ottawa , Detroit and Buffalo so 3 teams need to go and Toronto is most definitely 1 , so suck it Leafs fans , your team is gonna suck for a long long time , may never ever see a Cup 🤣🤣🤣 Glorious
I have ZERO beLEAF in this group. They just don't care. They should just forfeit now. They won't win the series.
I believe the leafs have win them on tonight
Woll will go on a heater
The Leafs need REBUILDING…
I kept saying this so call super stars are ONLY REGULAR SEASON STARS.
IS NOT IN THEIR DNA TO BE PLAYOFF STARS…
IT TAKES A SPECIAL PLAYERS TO BE ABLE TO ELEVATE THEIR GAME IN THE PLAYOFFS…
AND THE 4 AREN'T CUTTING IT…!!
That sign off was hilariously awkward. I thought the feed was stuttering. I hope someone in fhe editing room was just having a little fun otherwise poor guys.
As a leafs fan, i can compare this to a new toy we got, and i think we dont want to play with it anymore.
🍁To little, way to late, our #1 line never showed up!🍁 just roll over and Be swept on out! 🍁
Hey but we won round one🎉
Yeah they are “tuning out”.
Now it’s time to check out…
Leafs fans called all of us who said "Matthews, Marner, Tavares, and Nylander are soft, and not playoff performers" haters, for years. We just hate the Leafs because those guys are so good. Well, here is reality smacking you right in the face. Do you see it now? Do you see that we were all being realistic, and you all were in denial? Well, not a single one of the top 4 has stood up and thrown the team on their back and carried to a win. Do you see now? Can you accept reality? Or are we all still just haters?
The Leafs only wanted to win the first round. Not contend for the Stanley Cup. That's it.
They won the first round, mission accomplished… now they are just waiting for the season to end.
Love the question on the Panthers and then just flip it into keep talking about the Leafs
As frustrated as i am after the last few games.. im very hopeful that we will bring our lunchbox tonight and out work and out will the panthers tonight to take game 4. Give us another chance to buikd momentum. Lets go boys!!
No way they’re coming back being down 3:0
What do you expect them to say? We quit? We know they did already so just let the season end and don’t even interview them after the loss.
They didn't have any and game 1 game 2. Game 3. It. Takes? Them to game 4. To have belief. L o l go cats
This is so dumb. If the leafs were winning this series, people would be saying the panther locker room isn’t taking it seriously enough and the leafs lockerroom looks professional. It’s all such bullshit. Just win the game
If you replaced all of the Florida panthers sticks with brooms, they still beat us tonight. No heart no hope.
Obviously winning 4 straight is a tall order. But it's hockey, you never know. It's been done before.
Sucks being in this situation after a great 1st round.
But it ain't over till it's over, go Leafs go! 🍁
Simple instead of paying core 4 40 mil per season just shy of half the cap give them a raise to 50 mil. 😂 the core slugs
Panthers will close this out tonight. Soon, the Leafs will break out all the excuses that can be mustered. Keefe & Dubas will blame Refs & say they deserve new contracts and support.
I predict a comeback for the Leafs. They will win four straight.
Never jumped on the Matthews bad wagon, never bought into him, I think he’s over rated and should go away, when I see Matthews I get the same feeling I get when I see Trudeau…… but wanna punch them right in the FN face.
Woll will crack
Can you imagine the money to be made if a team like the panthers just barely makes the playoffs and then ends up winning it all. Just saying.
Toronto is out after tonight unfortunately
The morning of a Leafs elimination game is like being at the doctor's office watching him flick the needle. Just get it over with. Of course the Leafs will probably win tonight and prolong this misery.
