  1. Let’s be honest, this winning streak was the leafiest possible thing to do after losing to all those shit teams

  2. Not afraid to admit I thought this team would get zero points from the Boston/Carolina/Vegas set. What a great fucking four points to start.

  3. Top 6 looked soooo much better after that shakeup. No one is saying we have to permanently swap Marner and Nylander, just be more flexible about going to it when the regular lines are being stifled.

  4. Best defensive performance of the season against Boston followed up by our second best defensive performance of the season against Carolina! This fucking Leafs team, man. Somehow we held it together after our horrible 1st period.

  5. Saw this the other day: “if you lose to the worst teams, maybe you’re the worst team.”

    Hmm…I guess we’re also the best team now then.

    Or…just maybe…Leaf fans are the most reactionary in pro sports.

    It’s November 6th. Two amazing games. Let’s keep it going!

  6. That game was classic Freddy lmaoo he was never able to make big saves when it matters most even last year he fuck over the cans

    That 3rd goal gave me Leafs Bruins game 7 PTSD

  7. 2-0 since my son was born, he’s lucky I guess. I’m at home with the toddler but he’s in the NICU at the moment with his mom (he’s ok). All sorts of luck!

  8. I’m liking November a lot more than October so far. That’s two big wins against streaking teams on back-to-back nights. Let’s keep it rolling.

  9. I actually think this team does better when they face some adversity early in the season. Nice to have a little something to base my optimism around, finally.

  10. Just had to find those legs

    Kept it close long enough to find a way to gitter dun

    Big 2 points way to go lads

  11. That last goal is exactly why Andersen is no longer the Leafs goalie. Soft back breaker that loses you a game.

  12. blogpost, but I think I’m just gonna watch the Leafs vs. the top teams and rivalries

    even if they win, it’s not really interesting watching them play Arizona or Vancouver or whatever

  13. Had very low expectations for this one but glad to see the team rally after Kall let in that stinker.

  14. Tavares basically turned the entire season around by himself with the game against Philly.

    It seems that everyone else has responded and is playing like a real team again.

  15. Slow start but great effort to get back and solidify the win. A traveling back-to-back with Kallgren in net + rested Carolina team? Obviously we’d win lmao

  16. I really didn’t understand why everyone was pissed at Dubas for not upgrading our 3rd goalie from Kallgren.

    He can play games like this, we know he can because he did last year. He isn’t perfect, but find me a better waiver exempt 3rd goalie on another team.

  17. Some numbers wizard needs to figure out why the Leafs can get swept in Cali but beat the Bruins and Canes b2b in less than 24 hours.

    You could sell that for a lot of money

  18. HEY GUYS! Go to the r/Torontomarlies subreddit and show some love. Been trying to get some attention to our up and coming talent. Would be appreciated.

  19. And just like that, 2nd in the Atlantic and top 10 in the league. A lot can change in a few days.

  20. I wonder if people will accept how good we are after beating Boston and Carolina back to back. Every Bruins fan thought Mitchell Miller was the only reason we won last night. Clearly not.

    Now let’s get points 6/6 on Tuesday and really shut everyone up.

  21. Lily coming back has been huge for us. Him slotting in with Rielly so seemlessly allowed Brodie to fix Holl.

    I am so glad hes finally shut the impatient naysayers up. Been rooting for him since day one.
