Put Knies in the top six, fire Bertuzzi and Domi into the sun, clone Gregor to play all six positions on the third and fourth lines.
I can’t wait for November when the Leafs are going to dominate…
Someone reading this message is a better defenceman than John Klingberg
I wish the fans booed the team, maybe then they would be better
FIRE KEEFE.
Fire Keefe. bottom 6 is fucking shit.
Klingberg is SO fucking bad. What a brutal play to end the game. Fire him into the sun.
Existence is pain.
The fact that we need Matthews to score a hattrick to even have a chance is embarrassing
They might need to split the core 4 up over 3 lines. The bottom 6 is absolutely killing this team right now
Listen man when you get beat by fucking sabres when papi gets 3 you have some real issues….
None of the new guys are doing shit like nothing at all. This is so depressing man 😭
It’s so depressing man I can’t even stress how bad this season is looking
klingberg absolutely blows take him the fuck off that pp
Klingberg was the standout bumfickle, but the bottom 6 were almost just as horrendous
This time for sure, Keefe has to go. This is the play of a team that doesn’t give a fuck about their coach. I’m so sick of him.
#KEEFEOUT
Our defense has regressed so hard this year. And Domi, Bertuzzi, and Reaves are fucking worthless.
It’s almost like our GM is an unqualified nepo piss baby who got unceremoniously released from his last job (which he also wasn’t qualified for) for blowing up a competitive roster and dooming the team to cap hell until approximately the heat death of the universe.
All I want for Christmas is a new coach
4 losses in a row. Cool cool cool
This team sux lol
Lilly on one leg is better than Klingberg
Shit is pretty dire right now. Tonight should have been a for sure win. Team needs to wake the fuck up.
This team fucking stinks. The core guys are producing, but literally everyone else is useless. Zero passion, zero chemistry, zero effort.
This team fucking sucks, it will probably be the worst leafs team since the start of the Matthews era
Fire Shanahan so we can get a whole new front office. Especially a new head coach. Guy didn’t even adjust the lines from last game until it was too late again. So sick of that guys decisions behind the bench.
It could be worse, we could be the Edmonton oilers
Fire Keefe
I’m going to raid the kids halloween candy and eat the pain away
Imagine one player getting a hat trick, one getting 4 points, and still losing
🤓 Ackshully based on my calculations of xGF% we should’ve won since we’re better on paper.
Raise the spreadsheet banner
This team has no depth, no defenseman and a coach who doesn’t adapt. Blow it up
It is unacceptable how dogshit our 4th line has been during the Matthews era. It’s even more unacceptable that our coach deploys them after a goal.
Also, fuck John Klingberg.
Man I wouldnt play klinger in sweden just to spite him for his play
This team won’t be above .500
Garbage coach, garbage D. Garbage depth players. I’m done thank god we don’t lose our pick this year
I still cant believe how often I was downvoted and yelled at in the off-season for saying that Klingberg is going to be bad and Reaves is going to be bad.
thank you brad. really looking forward to trading our first to ship out klingberg
Keefe’s gotta go man, it’s getting dangerously close to Thanksgiving and our Torrid November has yet to start despite this being game 2 of siad November stretch.
Team is so bad defensively and the bottom 6 outside of Gregor and Knies is god awful,I like Kampf but he should be 4th line C.
Leafs got their (seemingly) annual ass-whooping from the Sabres.
They’ll get them next time. Buffalo is selectively good, but inconsistent
Picture this:
Matthews, but with a determined, tenacious team around him.
We lost to Buffalo on their second game of a back to back! Please tell me how Treliving constructed a better team than Dubas ever did!! Reaves, Domi, Bert and fucking Kilingberg have been fucking anchors to the team.
Reeves and Klinger are cooked well done if brad insists on playing them then he’s a fraud and should not be gm
This was the most predictable outcome after a team meeting
I’ve seen enough. This team is not going to make the playoffs.
Save this comment. $100 to the John Tavares Foundation if they do. Will of course post proof.
John Klingberg is either blind or dumb. Shot after shot off the shin pads of the Sabers. And all season. Guy’s a bum.
Seeing Boston nearly undefeated while losing their top 2 centre’s and one of them being a perennial selke winner is making me disproportionately angry
I want Keefe gone… but this team is BAD. You got Willy, Matthews and Mo… that’s it. Treliving has a ton of work to do. Not sure they’re good enough to make the playoffs right now.
Be nice if we could stop pretending Klingberg is deserving of playing in the same situations as Rielly…
Matthews third hat trick in 11 games…
Marner with a 4 point night…
Nylander”s point streak reached 11 games…
And they…. Lose????
Fucking Leafs.
Knies kampf domi cannot be a line moving forward if we have any hope of getting some scoring depth from the bottom.
That and the D is a serious problem with McCabe and lily out… still a problem with them in it but fuck are options slim right now
Top line of Matthews Nylander and Knies
Second line of Tavares Marner and Domi
Third line of Holmberg, Bertuzzi and Jarnkrok
Fourth line Kampf, Robertson and Gregor
Team is very unlikable. They legit look horrible this year. Our only offense comes from our first and second lines. I was hoping with Reeves, Domi and Bertuzzi that we would at least be tough to play against, but they literally do nothing.
