I’m on edge. Make me feel better
The drop off with Matthews is fishy. Doesn’t shoot, hit he isn’t playing the same. Very strange makes no sense.
Did you just say "if" the leafs beat dallas? Please don't ever get involved in gambling😅
Leafs play Tuesday afternoon.
I think in a way this loss is a good thing because the more they lose the better chance the coach gets fired and a new coach takes over. Berube's system does not fit this roster and it is pretty obvious he has lost the room. The players are NOT the problem. Injuries are also a major factor as well
Probably gonna regret getting tickets to leafs vegas at Scotia bank
At the end of the day the Loafs just aren't that good, sorry man. Time to make some BIG moves.
This team just can't get it together when it matters! I'm glad I lost my Leafs hat!
Your face expression in the thumbnail got me 🤣
Another night where Matthews and Nylander did nothing and Rielly let another guy make him look stupid and got scored on.
You live in TN or just visiting Nashville for the game?
Even though I'm not a leafs fan Im not blaming the coach.
Gavin Mckenna here we come!!
Too many passengers on the Leafs. Matthews and Nylander definitely not earning their dough. Matthews is not captain material. They should give it back to Tavares.
Matthews has a serious undisclosed injury, I don't think he gives a s@#% about hockey right now,
Send a message. Trade Matthews today. He is not even worthy to be compared to players like McDavid anymore. Maybe it was Mitch making him look good. Trade Nylander too. Dubas destroyed this team. Tre destroying team for years to come. Start rebuild
Matthews to the Canucks for EP40.
Elbows up

Pretty sure Matthews has a back issue and that's always going to be there for the rest of his career
Berube type of hockey, I expected this last year (doesn't fit the team roster = who on earth it could work with player like Maccelli in offseason?) but I guess Mitchie boy carried them to the playoffs with his control of the play, companionship with Matthews and 100+ points. Sorry, had to say it. Adding Lalonde is a joke. He did horrible job at Detroit with it's defence and almost destroyed multiple careers of goaltenders. Leafs just don't have the mix of players in any of the lines to play this type of hockey that leads into shots and wins consistently. That's the bottom line: consistency and cohesion. I guess it could work in the playoffs but then you would need to pump them up somehow to show up. So, if Berube can't do it, why he is behind the bench? Wasn't hiring him the whole point of that?
You might want to hitch your wagon to the Habs .
It all starts with Keith Pelley. His decision the next two weeks will chart the next decade of the Leafs future.
What big changes do you propose ?
We need to wake up and it’s embarrassing. We need big changes to this team starting with Craig berule our coach and our GM and our captain and certain players on the team.
This isnt a Berube type team… it hasnt been since he got here… they got rid of one soft player, but the top 9 is STILL mostly soft players… they are missing a Tkachuk type player… how many fucking coaches do they need to go through with totally different styles and approaches before we figure out the mother fucking coach IS NOT THE FUCKING PROBLEM…..
If you were going to let one of the big three go it should have been Nylander or Matthews not Marner. Marner is a defensively responsible playmaker who makes everyone he plays with better. Matthews has a good shot good hands, and a good stick lift other than that he is slow and lacks hockey sense. Nylander is lazy defensively and extremely streaky, great player but not a team player. Marner can turn just about anyone into a 30 goal scorer and if he was the one soft player on a team of dogs no one would complain.
So sad to be a leafs fan (I'm not one btw)…. 2000 to 2015 missing playoffs so regularly. Then 2016 to 2025, one of most talented and skilled rosters on paper. But making second round of playoffs just once. Team must be cursed
I thought it would have been tougher for me to stop watching NHL hockey and the Leafs.
You know what though it's been rather easy to tune out.
I don't watch live games anymore because to be frank i'm tired of the segments that include gambling.
and the Doctor said I should limit things that give me stress..lol and well a certain team in Blue and white ranks up there!
Sure I can tune it out but even this League has turned me off in terms of their rule book,
and how they don't protect their players from severe injuries.
heck I've even have a sour taste in my mouth with the fighting. ( Yea i'm getting Old I guess)
But this core 3 formerly #16, 88, and 34 have made my decision easy!
No heart, no cojones, no will, no passion!
sure they will rank up there in points as a Leaf but
they will go down as " A wasted Era!"
John Tavares gets a pass in my books.
They should have never handed #34 the C
I like hearing what the pulse is like in Leaf land so I watch podcasts like yours, Dangle's a few more.
For me I would move 88 and 34 by any means necessary!! I don't care what you have to do but get them off this team ASAP!!
BLOW IT UP
Garbage.
TSN's Mike Johnson pointed out under Berube they were 31st in possession last season. That problem was masked by a very good PP & near the top of the league goaltending. They got outshot constantly, but won a bunch of one goal games. This year poor tending by Stolarz/Primeau to start & a dreadful PP. Berube's systems are not working, so either he goes or he tries something different than dump & chase.
glad ur done!
i guess this year when u make ur playoff predictions u wont put the leafs as cup winnners this time
It’s a good thing we lost to Nashville.
I don’t think I could take another day without accepting this loser team as anything but what they are.
Lazy spineless losers
The Toronto Maple Leafs have a work ethic problem amongst the players. They seem to show up only when they feel like it. It is very inconsistent.
Berube OUT
