Losing BOTH GAME AGAINS THE LAST PLACE TEAM, in a season in which you NEED to finish first in your division? You guys are professional losers. Coming up with new and creative ways to get the job done every year.
Soft goals or not ?
Bad defense and Woll being off his game was the story tonight. We know what this team is. Let's get to the playoffs already.
Absolute embarrassment.
Lucky to have even gotten a point.
Didn’t deserve it.
From goaltending to the core 4, wasn’t good enough and inexcusable.
Didn’t start on time.
Got out worked again.
Contender? You’ll be lucky not to be swept against Panthers or Lightning playing like that. You will get killed.
Don’t wanna hear excuses it was travel or they were tired.
All teams travel or are tired.
You’re professionals.
Act like it FFS.
In the bigger picture, this team is not ready for playoffs. Any team they face rn is going to obliterate them
No need for despair. Bad teams turn up against the best teams. The Sharks played great and with nothing to lose. Glad we got the point.
I'm a big believer in Woll, but he was brutal tonight. Another missed opportunity. It's almost like these guys don't want to win the division.
Woll looked poor tonight. Just looked slow.
Been a leaf fan for over 60+ years …This "TEAM " is NOT capable of winning a cup let alone get out of the first round ! They should be embarrassed by their lazy efforts of late ! They put 40 mil $ on the ice on a pp and don't get a shot ! They leave the goalies out to dry ! If it wasn't for the Players that make 1 or 2 mil a year that SACRIFICE themselves physically for the team on EVERY shift it would be worse ! They don't HIT or BACKCHECK and will not stick up for the players that do ! The only cheques they know are the CHECKS that go into their bank accounts .! As most of us know the PLAYOFFS are 💯 a different season not unlike the Can/USA games we just witnessed but worse ! 🤞🤞😢❤🇨🇦 Good Luck !
Figures, fire shanny and Brad. Leafs sens round one, get ready to lose round 1
Got a point out of it and first in the standings.. loved Laughton getting one tonight! A goal! Got to be better but Go Leafs Go! Ps. Seeing the way Nylander has growth in his game over the past three seasons has been amazing.
Imagine losing to a bunch of children and the worst team in the nhl and you are supposed to show face as a cornerstone franchise. Leafs fans BTFO, Toronto common L, Macklin Celebrini owns your entire family
VIVA LOS TIBORUNES
get your S together toronto
Should have won in OT on so many scoring chances. Lucky to get 1 pt. Disappointing SO performance. What is Berube doing to improve this team performance ? It has flatlined all season long, nothing has changed since Oct.
Hockey a third-world sport that doesn't pay much, does it, Toronto? Fortunately there are casinos nearby for these slobs make a few bucks occasionally.
This team is done …Finished …
Tarps off Willy or JT couldn't save them. Tough one. Forget about it, boys. A long journey ahead. LFG!
Had to be jet lag
Love Willy’s evolution as a player. What a player and personality. Can’t believe we get to watch him and Matthew’s light the lamp in their prime.
There’s something seriously wrong with this team. Unfortunately it’s gonna be another 1st round exit. I mean let’s be honest here if you can’t beat the worst team in the NHL what chance do they have with the good teams in their division. Bring on the Blue Jays it’s baseball season. I’ve come to the conclusion that this team has something wrong From the owners to the product on the ice. Just listen to the leafs players sounded beaten and dejected. Oh they were fast and coming on strong on us ! Oh wow Nylander you sound like a big baby. Even Berube doesn’t even should pissed off …
Sharks FAST FAST YOUNG Talent… BUILDING and next year leafs will have even more trouble with them. They make the leafs move and skate. Leafs get shell shocked by SPEED.
A point is important but this team has a lot of things to work on in a very short time. Games like tonight will only extend your post season by 4 games. Other teams will eat you alive. Good luck though!
we no the leaf can bring the magic its time time hit the video room and pick apart the loses against bottom teams as of late (woll's gotta improve his sleep cycles so so much potential) the berubu direct thing is coming together= looks good up north
Bobby McMann had an awful game. That giveaway was so unnecessary – all he had to do was pass it back to his open and unbothered d-man – and he had a play to make to get it out to a teammate in the neutral zone.
Leafs will not get through the first round!
It's good to have 2 goalies your confident with. However for them it's kind of pressuring, I could imagine. Feeling that extra bit of pressure to be "the guy" competing with your buddy every night I think culminates in bad plays like Woll made on that giveaway off the skate and in.
They'd be better off knowing weeks in advance what games they are going to play so it feels more equal rather than ok you won so now your our guy ! Oh you lost ok your benched.
That's a lot of pressure to perform, and on any given night it seems like either of them could be playing like they just decided the day prior.
Whereas if you know for a fact like a week in advance at least than you have all week to psyche yourself up, stretch everyday make sure your at tip top shape ( as they should always be, but everyone knows that isn't always the case ).
It’s a good thing that Toronto will not be playing San Jose in the first round because they would be swept.
Concerning how much I have heard the coach use travel as an excuse lately. This is the NHL
Thank god you're not playing the Sharks in the 1st round… Woll shouldn't play late games, he was not awake or aware on many goals.
The best player on the ice was an 18 year old rookie, nice job Laughs another early playoff exit is imminent!
Same old story didn’t start on time the effort wasn’t there better tighten up playoffs are just a round the corner
Blah, blah, blah, same as always, cant ecen even beat a lowly non playoff team, no urgency, nobody cares, they are all rich
The leafs are not a Stanley Cup contender
Woll was actually bad tonight , worst I’ve seen out of him that’s for sure. I guess he’s a morning person 😂
They do this. think they can coast and play at 70%. then they turn it up at the end to get a point.THE PROBLEM is this type of behaviour becomes a habit. And they have this habit the whole year.
No way these guys can lose these games or even lose to the worst team in the NHL
Can't lose to the last place team twice (!!) in March with 1st place on the line and still call yourself a true Stanley Cup contender – aint't buying it…too many simple mistakes that championship calibre teams don't make this time of year
This is the leafs. Choke when you need to perform. Against the worst team. What an embarrassment.
A bigpoint Good luck sat in LA. ❤❤❤
