Sheldon Keefe on Marchand: “He gets calls. It’s unbelievable, actually, how it goes. You’ve got to play through that stuff. I don’t think there’s another player in this series who gets away with taking out Bertuzzi’s legs the way that he does. It’s an art and he’s elite at it.”

    Watching the full clip he seem like he knew he messed up after saying it’s unbelievable lol

    Probably going to get a lot of hate but other teams coaches have implied similar thoughts to the media in the past that seemed to work so maybe it can work for Keefe (probably not though)

    I’m surprised that old rat is able to play at the level he can still.

    Like when the fuck is it gonna give already. Why does this shit have to be so damn predictable why can’t we just win this thing. Boston honestly is so beatable if they lose to this roster this is worst than 2021 Habs. But yet again what did they have also a god tier goalie.

    He needs to call it out. For so long we’ve taken the high road and other coaches bitch about all sorts of things and the league listens.

    Could’ve called all the penalties in the world on Marchand tonight and it wouldn’t have mattered. Our PP is ass. Stop calling shit out and worry about the stuff you can control.

  5. canuck_at_the_beach

    Its true but stop making excuses when theres other glaring issues we could control, like the fucking powerplay!

  6. This is a clever compliment veiled by the real message, the refs are SHIT

  7. CasualtyEH

    It’s not an art when both refs are looking at it and blatantly ignoring it.

  8. jerbear1955

    The old rat got 2 goals that killed the Leafs. Nuff said.

    Really feels like Keefe got a warning earlier in the year when he blew up. He’s been totally neutered since then. Like a get it’s not particularly useful but he needs to show a bit more emotion on the bench sometimes.

    what are we? 1/11 on the PP??

    according to this sub if the refs are fair and call all the Boston penalties, and we get 10PP next game maybe we’ll come up with a PP goal.

  11. TheGameWaker

    I’m not Keefe’s biggest fan as a coach, but I fucking love that he stands up for the boys like this

  12. Oh man lol

    “You sir, truly are the most exquisite scoundrel, a machiavellian figure of epic proportions, I doff my chapeau to your rogue-ish manner and stand in awe of your dastardly wretchedness”

    🧐

    Keefe really needs to earn these fines. I love that he’s finally calling out this bullshit but he really needs to earn it. He needs to go way harder than he does. His job is on the line here.

  14. Pristine_Office_2773

    Keefe unfortunately doesn’t have any respect from the officials so this won’t change anything. The next coach better be an established guy.

  15. 2019accnt

    blatantly breaking the rules isn’t an art. The refs just suck/biased 

  16. krombough

    Finally someone says it.

    Someone not on reddit that is.

    Keefe is drinking down copium, he’s been blessed with a decent enough roster that 5 guys carry the team.

    Other than poor line blending he doesn’t do shit. Calls out Marchand for being Marchand rather that this team of primadonnas. Boo hoo the calls aren’t going our way, tie the game and let them walk in

    A powerplay that has been a limp dick for months. Special teams coaching still falls under the head coach, ZERO changes made. Can’t get consistent effort out of 10+ million dollar players.

    Marchand saying it’s over in 5…and Keefe’s soundbite is he gets away with shit. The winning mentality is not fucking here.

  18. BadInfluenceGuy

    Both refs staring at him, do it was the funniest thing. Then they skate away looking the other way, and a goal happens LOL. It was the most hilarious thing I’ve witnessed.

  19. HistorianMassive1111

    Terrible sequence that lead to that first goal but shut your mouth you bum. 0/5 on the pp, is why this team lost.

  20. ElephantShell34

    If giving good quotes to the media made a good coach Keefe would be a perennial Jack Adams finalist. 

    Instead he’s an AHL coach  completely out of his depth at the NHL level. 

  21. Ga11agher

    Stop whining Keefe. You lost fair and square. Quit blaming the refs ffs and take responsibility.

  22. Letterkenny_Irish

    Leafs 0/5 on the PP. No excuse.

    Get better.

    Or if you’re gonna complain that the refs aren’t calling fair, then settle up while you have home ice last change and put reaves out to “faceoff” against marchand. And have reaves beat the brakes off marchy the second the puck drops. Boston has no real response for that and losing Marchand for Reaves is an absolute win.

    But keefe won’t. It’ll be the same shit again and again.

  23. leafyboy56

    Incoming 10 penalties against next game.

    Can’t have the Leafs speaking out! Even though they fund 50% of the league

  24. Infamous_Band

    Sheldon you’re an idiot!
    After NHL officials helped you out with so many dumb calls against Bruins, you still complain, fucking idiot.

  25. JSnow93

    Now if only we could take advantage of the calls we do get go our way! 🤯
