  1. it seems to me the only person who knows what he’s doing is ROR. He is just better than any predator, imho

  14. Such a sloppy game from the boys, and it’s gonna be tough to come back. That being said, Samsonov looks ridiculously shaky, so if we can get one, anything can happen.

  17. The one thing the Leafs lack is physicality. Need to land some big hits, get them winded, break them on the boards in their own zone, and stop hesitating on shots and just let it rip. O’Reilly, Trenin, Parsnips, and Smith are there to put them away. Trust in your net front presence.

  32. Willy come on lol. I know we got walloped tonight, but “championship level team” is not an accurate description for a Leafs team beating a team they should.

  33. ah well. not a great way to kick off the canadian weekend roadtrip but here’s to a better effort tomorrow 🍻

  34. That shots on goal counter is fuckin embarrassing for us. We gotta do better we couldn’t get any good offense time
