As a habs fan it makes me so happy to see all these crash out videos by all the same channels that talked shit that Matthews and this team would win for the past 10 years.
No pick, no prospects, 3 players worth anything with no trade clauses 😅oh god 😂 it makes me smile to see the even worse pain that’s soon to come ❤️
the TORONTO ICE PANDAS were not an embarassment, at least not last nite. yet the problems still persist. effort has to be combined with execution and being able to score. scoring requires being able to make a few passes together which this talentless bunch just can't seem to do. having said that, if this kind of effort should have be there for the first 34 games they would have obviously have a lot more points in the bag. good team play desperately REGARDLESS OF WHERE THEY ARE IN THE STANDINGS OR WHO THEY ARE PLAYING. this bunch though are MENTALLY WEAK and that is something that is hard to change. they need to trade matthews or at the very least rip that C off his jersey and stitch it to a players jersey who actually leads by example and hates to lose! they need to rid themselves of melanderlike players who are defensive liabilities. how bout a big blockbuster trade? oh, and i forgot johnny t and reilly who are simply horrible. turning this around at this point really does seem like a pipedream!!!
Looks like the Leafs may be getting a new coach for Christmas…
Berube is a "message sending" CLOWN.
Laffs 35 games with 35 points at 15 wins 15 losses or .500%. CBJ is dead last at 34 points. YIKES!!!!
I would send Mathew’s and nylander back to their farm team and tell them whe; they want to start playing like pros then they can be called back up
I earnestly hope that Leafs fans will muster the courage to refrain from purchasing tickets, as this is the only means by which we can express our frustration with having a deficient general manager, affectionately dubbed "Dumb Tree," at the helm. The Maple Leafs are the most valuable franchise in the league; how dare they eliminate the role of a president and entrust a GM of mediocre caliber like Dumb Tree to manage the team?
This should be a results-oriented business, with no room for excuses and the intention of the move by a GM. The facts is under Dumb Tree this team sucks. Sacrificing two first-round picks for a fourth-line defenseman who was injured prior to the trade and a fourth-line center is an unacceptable blunder, especially choice to go all in when the first-line center 34 is already had a hidden serious injury.
During the off season , a precise Dissect of the team should be ,1. With 34 hidden injuries afflicting the team, and his performance heavily dependent on 16, who lacks a viable replacement will be a serious concern of the performance from the top line while. 2. 88 has consistently been unreliable and 91 is aging, coupled with Morgan's decline over the past two years, and both goalies being prone to injuries, with these disadvantages should signal a wise and seasoned GM to recognise the team's fragility. I am astounded during the off season he believes every factors from the team are all sets and his sole focus during off season should be upgrading on the bottom six; in my experience, when a GM prioritises enhancing the bottom lines, it typically indicates a team that is a clear favourite for the Cup. What a miss calculation by Dumb Tree. Truly as a normal fans you will make such a bias view however as a GM who gets a few millions dollars of salary is totally unacceptable.
Dumb Tree is a complete joke and a disgrace. Although he was dismissed from Calgary, where the team continues occupies at the bottom tier of the Western Conference
Should have an indication of his average ability. It is imperative to fire this Dumb Tree first and appoint a general manager with a more impressive track record. Allow this new GM to make decisions regarding both coaching and player acquisitions. If Dumb Tree continues to exert influence, we may soon see the arena filled with a third of empty seats.
Bench Wilma Nylander !
As a fan, John mean are in the same boat man it’s embarrassing and the fact that the team only scored one goal against Dallas‘s shows that there’s no heart to know passion from some guys on this team and yet again the top guys don’t seem to show up when it matters so we need to get a new coach and things need to change
Paper bags on the head time.
Better still, stop going to home games. Save your hard earned 💰
mathews have not been good for 8 years, hes a no show in playoffs. Also REBUILD the LEAFS!
meanwhile the HABS….
rielly and robertson to vancouver for Willander RHD and linus Karlsson c/w, Matty to SJ for Ferraro LHD and colin Graf c/w// berube out DeBoer in
And that Tanev contract is something, Brad Treeliving should be fired
Auston Matthews is on pace for 36 goals 23 assists 59 points in 77 games
Lipstick on a pig. Leafs play better but still lose
Leafs fans are in a really dark place.
The team obviously knows its really really bad. If you've ever been through something that's really really bad, you'll know that looking for silver linings is evidence that it's really really bad. The whole team needs to buy into the fact that they can scrape enough good things together and that Berube can refocus over the holidays and put together a fix it plan for them to follow.
By the end of February the Leafs will be playing better hunting for a playoff spot …u watch
I think the leafs are doing great! Keep it up!!!
Yes…I'm a Bruins fan 😊
Mitch Marner was the heart and soul of the Leafs. I predicted Leafs would dissolve without him. Time to put Mathews, Tavares and Nylander on the fourth line and hopefully they will demand a trade and we will get some draft picks for them. Leafs are a last place team.
At the end of the day TMLSE and the Fan base are like a marriage, We the fans want a much needed break n want a separation before thinking of a divorce from this franchise But we as fans keep giving them a benefit of a doubt n to think to keep trying to patch things up But we are so invested in this relationship that we think we can’t afford the divorce So we’re stuck in this purgatory But we as fans know we will never win the holy grail But are only content with 1 playoff round . This Core will never win u Jack shit , They haven’t in 9 yrs What makes u think in anyway the way this team is built will ever give you what we crave “At least a Stanley Cup Final “ unfortunately we’ll never see it happen Merry Christmas to all be happy with what you have and that’s love that gives back to you Bc Leaf’s won’t give u back that love only Heartbreak
Full tank for a top 5 pick. Move Laughton 50 percent contract and other assets for a 2nd and 4th in the 2026 draft and focus on development until training camp 2026. The World Cup is coming. Let's step aside and take our medicine for a better team next year. 🏟
I never liked the carlo trade either. Bad move… GM should be ashamed
It could be worse you could be a Canucks fan we ain’t do anything in whole tenure of the team
This team is too deeply flawed and no move to replace the coach is going to make them any different. Even if the somehow squeezed into the playoffs, they're not acheiving anything. The only option is to tank, retain the top 5 protected pick and either retool or rebuild.
If management makes it known they are not firing Berube would that possibly be enough to make Matthews,Nylander and Rielly to waive their NMC?
Or should management just confront them and ask them to waive ?
Something has to change but I do not think it is Berube that should go.
What do you expect Berube to do he has tryed everything already except healthy scratching the 3 worst passengers?
Most of all Treliving needs to be fired before he makes even stupider trades!
Should have won a cup in the seventies, should have won a cup in the 80’s should have won a cup in the 90’s and should have won a cup with group over the past 10 years.
Yea I mean chiefs time here is done. All you can really do to make a change
I’m so happy this sorry fan base is crashing and burning. God is good ladies and gents, enjoy the slow death of your pompous, arrogant, bull crap team
So back to same old leafs.
They say history repeats itself like trading for kessel and losing put on drafting Seguin
