Why is even Gardiner playing? They must have better farm players
- Landsbergfan

Oh man Iv been on This site too long. I read this as Nylander not Gardiner.

Ayers look drunk 🥴
- Landsbergfan

I would be too. Gatorade bottle full of vodka.

Seriously, what is wrong with our players tonight? Do they know we are battling for a playoff spot?

DO they know if they lose this game with AYRES they will be mocked forever?

Im texting them now to find out.

If there was ever a (frank)ing time to (frank)ing shoot

I want this guy to make a couple of saves at least.

But miss out on at least 3 more.

Right? Shoot it from anywhere and everywhere. All the time.

Our defence has been catastrophically bad tonight.

Coaching won't fix this

GM can't fix this.

Players can't fix this.

We need to sacrifice a virgin of the highest quality. NAOW!

Dude, nobody said that. Nobody has amnesia.

He hasn't been as good this year. Not sure what's so hard about that. No essay needed.
- gravyface

Oh but they do.

The D and the coach hasn't been good, that's why the numbers took a dip.

(frank) sakes, they've given up near 40 shots already.

Pesce is hurt, both goalies hurt.


Barrie and Hitch for our 1st and a 2nd

Kapanen didn’t want to shoot? Da (frank).

Finally have an open look on a goalie that gave up 11 goals against in Allen cup league 5 years ago? SHOOT.

Already bought this fake narrative? Typical lemming.

If I was Keefe, my head would be exxploding right now. They should be chopping at the bit. You could literally break a scoring record if you came out flying...

Our guys look shell shocked...

You were jonesing to post a graph or someones tweet about how good hes been.

Going through withdrawal?

oh no you don't... there's plenty in here saying "can't trade him... no one to replace him"..

Barrie pretty much killed a minute of that power play on his own.

1) this is dumb asset management - Dubas should be pulling him out
2) Keefe should not be putting on the PK... not the least of which is the shake up he had in the 1st...
- BorjeFan4Ever

I am sick of him. I thought he'd be so much better. Regardless of how his xGF% looks and his points performance since Keefe took over, he does stupid things all the time. He's lazy with the puck. He's lazy defensively. Even his choice of shots - wasting a useless point shot with no traffic in front - is stupid.

Let him go somewhere else where they can use him effectively. I can't wait until he's a footnote in Leaf history like Khristich.

Pass was the better play, goalie was completely out of position. If Engvall got better contact, that's a tap in. Kapanen shooting from that angle, he probably misses the net.

If you are going to pass just pass it off his pads.

99% chance an open rebound.

Leafs don’t want to shoot on this dude? They are familiar with him, don’t want to embarrass him?

Wow what a game... I’m just hoping a goalie doesn’t make a miraculous return for the 3rd.

If the goalie wasn’t as goof as the goalie I played last night in my beer league game then I would agree with you.

Fake narrative is not a relative of mine.

It’s going to be hard for them to give it

Honestly, I've never seen a worse-played NHL game than this. This is bag on head, Ballad-era stuff.

So bad I even agreed with something Jim (frank)ing Hughson said tonight - "I just don't understand why they don't just shoot from everywhere"

Hutch to the Canes for a 1st...

Liar.

They've never been good defensively, at least not consistently, but Andersen has been better in previous years; this is the difference. I don't know what's so hard to comprehend here.
