The Leafs are 39-24-3 for 81 points. They are 5-4-1 in their last 10 games.
The Panthers are 41-24-3 for 85 points (2 more games played). They are 7-3-0 in their last ten games.
The Lightning are 38-23-5 for 85 points - same number of games as the Leafs. They are 6-3-1 in their last 10 games.
Maybe what the team needs most is for the fans to quit whining and panicking after every single loss.

I've got as much PTSD as anyone with this team but I agree ...the combo of the FN tourny, the deadline and some really weird scheduling and they look exhausted. Lets see if Berube can get them reset.
Best goaltending we've had in decades, best/deepest blueline we've had in decades, best depth we've had in decades (Laughton, McMann, Domi, Lorentz ...).
My real worry is 34's health/play.

While I sit here enjoying this gorgeous Florida weather, I can't help but wonder how tariffs will impact my ability to build my meteorite collection. - GalacticStone
The tariff war includes outer space.
I believe there is a 50% tariff on items from within the solar system by the U.S. and a 75% tariff on anything from outside the solar system, that's why Oumuamua just said (frank) it and left. |

The people who say that Leafs fans reaction is all about a single regular season loss are missing the point entirely. - Aetherial
It's how they lose. Missed assignments, giveaways, poor positioning and lazy passing. That'll kill you in the playoffs. Now is the time to hone your system, not FAFO every night. I want to see leadership and the Marner contract is nothing but a distraction. Either sign the fuc-king thing or just shut your pie-hole. Marner is only worth Nylander money and not a penny more. He's never been 100 point player or a 30 goal scorer. Know your role and live up to your worth. Any more cap than Nylander, who is also overpaid, is too much. He can leave if he doesn't sign for that same amount. |

I agree, especially with Matthews’ health. |

97, 99 and on pace for 101 points (two years in a row) is as close to 100 point player as you can get. He's got 2 less assists than McDavid this year. This idea he's worth the same as Nylander is a dumbass argument. He scored 30 in 22/23, 35 in 21/22 and he's on pace to score 30+ again this year. He plays the PK, he's top-5 in Selke voting and he leads the team in points. He's worth more than Nylander and this year has been showing he's worth as much as Matthews too, albeit in a different way. |

Broken ribs take 6 to 8 weeks to heal and sometimes as much as 12 weeks. When he's playing a contact sport, he's taking hits that probably reaggravate the situation.
The Leafs can win games without him and should bench him at some point so he gets back to 100% for the playoffs. |

What does this team need to turn things around? - Whipper
a Q turn?
His style would probably work with M&M and all, while holding them accountable for playing “the right way” away from the puck. |

Apparently the Leafs are pretty pissed off.
Too bad it takes a bunch of bad losses to bring that out of them.
Not a legit contender imo. |

McMann | Domi | Jarnkrok
Lorenz | Kampf | Robertson

They've actually been poop for a few weeks now. The special teams are killing them. Goaltending back to earth. Team has no identity. They look to be stumbling into the playoffs. But hey, why be concerned? It's always worked out so well in the past when they just flip the switch! |

My only thought is that McM and Domi have been so bad lately maybe the Laughton line is actually 3rd ..and that Domi line is 4th. Krok's been pretty good so I have to think that line gets real minutes. |

Glad we traded a 1st rounder someone to play 4th line center.

Horse hit. ...really?
Seriously, just heard Ferraro on the radio and he said they look slow and tired. It's a fair take.
It's not an excuse ..they've sucked ...time to find their legs and earn their paycheques. |

Marner is 6th in TOI/GP, Matthews is 11th.
The Leafs, under all coaches, have played their top guys into the ground and always wonder they take nights off, especially vs bad teams or run out of gas in the playoffs. |
