  1. Great work Treliving. I wish my Dad was a multi-millionaire so I could fail upwards at every chance too. Fuck this guy.

  2. The Shanaplan is a fucking fraud. It’s time to seriously talk about trading Nylander. Not because I want him gone but because we fumbled the fucking bag and can’t trade Marner. This team can’t survive in this state. They need massive changes.

  3. Fire Keefe. He’s giving O-zone draws to the 4th and D-zone to the 1st. Also, Benoit and Gregor on PK is ass decision making. It’s straight up nonsensical. It is Benoit’s first game back and you put him on the PK with Gregor? Moreover, why start sammy against Tampa if he’s just getting his mojo back? Let the guy get confidence before throwing him back in the fire. Unnecessary stress for a goalie that is talking about mental health stuff.

  4. Everyone hammering Sammy when Woll gave up SIX goals to the Sabres off a B2B with 3 games in 4 nights. 2 of the goals were extremely soft goals too.

    He also gave up four goals to the Kings his start befoe that.

    Woll hasn’t been exactly brilliant himself.

    This D core is not helping the situation either.

  5. Hoping Tampa lays a 10 spot on us and Keefe gets fired right after the game. One can dream no?

  6. Keefe has shown time and time again he can coach at least in the regular season. I don’t love him either but this is on the roster and those who put it together (shanny, tree)

  7. Also fuck off Sportsnet. Stop giving me a fuckjng away broadcast every time you air a Leafs game. I’m so fucking tired of this shit

  8. After how Kucherov torched Sammy last game, how did Keefe think it was smart to go to him again?

  9. They blame the players on this breakdown. But who’s system is this? Sheldon keefe. Start blaming who the real problem is.

  10. Kyle dubas wanted to get rid of one of the core guys and got fired because shanahan wouldn’t let him have control. Shanahan sucks ass.

  11. Look it’s fine guys!!!! All we need is another hattrick from Matthews or a 4 point night from Willy and we’ll be fine!!!

  12. Treliving could probably manage 20-30 Boston Pizzas at a fairly high level but I’m not sure the Leafs are something he is qualified to fix.

  13. What’s the point of playing Matthews and Marner together if they’re going to get dominated by Kucherov?

  14. As a San Diego Padres fan who just watched the most talented roster in team history shit the bed for 6 months I was really looking forward to hockey season because the Leafs are awesome to watch during the regular season.

    But uh… this is just more of exactly the same.

  15. Knew this season but be bad. Treliving is just got good lol he’s a bad GM, bad team. Washed coach. I don’t know it’s all over. Era wasted

  16. Justin Williams… a guy who became a better version of himself when things got tough. How fitting.

  17. Worst team in the Matthews era.

    Keefe- Fire him

    Shanny- Fire him

    Sammy- trade, waive whatever.

    Klingberg – leave in Sweden

    Marner- Let him walk in free agency

    Kampf- trade

    Brodie- trade (love him but time to move on)

    I could honestly go on and on but this is actually horrendous. Even the worst games in the past 8 years are top tier compared to this trash. Shame on
