Always blame, blame! Pressure from the press.its the sticks and skates on the ice that make the difference. Throw the guy under the bus that got this team closer to a cup that we haven’t seen in years? I disagree with that move.
Ah yes, quoting Babcock..because if there’s one thing the Leafs needed, it was more echoes from a past that never worked
Leafs management couldn’t recognize toughness even when it punches them in the nose – get rid of this guy
Leafs/fans relationship: Not a single player mentioned the fans.
Nothing he can say that we haven't already heard before. Its kinda draining listening to hot air
I like what I hear from Keith, it seems they’re streamlining decision making and overall culture around the team.
Amazing how many negative Nancies are commenting here. Addition by Subtraction. Shana scam is over. Marner next toxic clown to go.
You have my Gmail give a shout have some very good ideas moving forward. Peace ✌️ 😎. Director of sustainable development and winning, sounds about right.
We are taking this team to the next level, are you serious all BS
Just maybe you can get the players to have some kind of response to the fans other than saying they aren't listening to the noise and they only care about supporting each other in the locker room. No fan who has spent the kind of money that they do year after year after year buying tickets buying merchandise showing up supporting this team wants to hear that we don't matter. We are all very passionate being a Toronto Maple Leafs fan and keep coming back. Something has to give. I will alway be a Leaf fan, have been since I was able to talk. Im now 70 years old so Please just one before I die! Go LEAFS GO💙
When Keith first arrived I was pumped, now not so much BUT we still have to give him this year to see if he keeps his word. He's not Peddie and he's not Leiweke, he's somewhere in between so let's see what he does.
Non Hockey guy fires a Hockey guy, what could go wrong. You got what you wish for. This franchise is on its way down.
Old guy here. I've been a Leaf fan since 1980 when I was 10 years old. I've grown up with this team and we've been through a lot over the past 45 years. If you are growing up with this team these days, good luck to you. Keep the passion alive. For me, these days I care about Canadian hockey teams – all of them. Sure I'd like to see the Leafs win a cup, I've wanted that since I was 10 years old. But goddam 32 years without a cup for this country hurts just as much.
Toronto fans are the only problem with the organization. Too much pressure on the players, fickle support, ready to go on attack at any moment. Real fans don’t throw their jersey on the ice. They still support their team win or lose…..not everyone gets to win, stop throwing tantrums. The Leafs played amazing this year, just lost to a team a little more amazing this year. It happens, players learn from each experience in the playoffs, and will be better next year. Management will correct. Good luck next year.
i have no confedence in a man that cant open a water bottle… 19:23
Every year 5 guys make the playoffs then fail and fold in a pathetic way. And that's why we are here today. That and a bunch of horrible decision by Kyle Dubas.
What was the point of this? Talk is cheap.
Best hockey team in the world…… Rotflol!!!
12:45 “I think Game 5 and Game 7 were very difficult games, we all know that.” I hope you mean difficult to watch.
Blah blah blah
People that have these jobs are full of crap.
I agree 100 percent
26:28 how is it a results driven business if the building is full for decades, big profits, no cups? 11 years.
As a dedicated Leaf fan for 50 years i think I have the experience to say that every hockey player that is privileged and honoured to play for this team should be wanting to win for its fans as it’s because of them they are paid handsomely. Any player that confuses our passion for noise and love for distraction should be traded, put on waivers or bought out. I won’t name names as we all know who they are. Putting all the focus on the die hards and winning for them should always be the goal. This team isn’t good enough to beat the likes of skilled teams like the Panthers, hungry teams like Lightning and streaky teams like the Canadiens. We should strive to be all those teams and better. No more excuses.
Have you ever been on one of those big water slides? Quarter or half way through you know there is no bloody way you can slow down no matter what you do, the slide has started for the Maple Leafs.
Just another front man (propagandist) recycling the same bull.
The leafs are the greatest team in hockey??? Are you sure about that sir your team hasn’t won in like 60 years please stop with bullshit respectfully
