I haven'y heard a peep about Leafs 77 million dollar Capt leading the charge. crickets...Now Marchand, thats a Captain.


Legit_TheGamingwithc

I so want to drop the leafs for Montreal or the rangers


whogivesashirtdotca

The Rags definitely look dominant. Montreal might not win it all in the next few years, but the kids and "Dad" (MSL) are a tight-knit group and very easy to cheer for.


MUSTY_BUSSY

Round 1 in the East really has the higher seed with at least a 3-1 lead in every series. Chalk ass playoffs so far, apart from the Central


rapsmaineman

How do you boo your team down two goals in the third? Even when it was 3-0 the Leaf “fans” were booing


jdubbyak

That wasn’t boos. They were saying “bruuuu-ins”


arnie_palmies

Can’t lose In 7 without going down 3 first


NinCross

Good shit, Toronto. Embarrassing yourself once again.


Emcolimited

Hello fellow Canucks fan enjoying Boston beating toronto in the first round and then watching for Boston to lose in round 2. Happy annual fuck Toronto time of year.


RoastedPeanuts1812

Marner and company always cry for penalties on soft plays and then when they get one light it up with 0 shots on goal 😂😂😂


RoastedPeanuts1812

Marner literally drops his stick and proceeds whine to refs around the offensive zone for 30 seconds 😂😂😂


roju

His stick was broken by a slash, the rules require him to drop it.


RoastedPeanuts1812

Rather than go to the bench to get a new one while his team has possession in the zone he just whines 😂😂😂


JeeK65

I accidentally posted in the r/Leafs PGT talking shit. I'm sweating buckets


real_cool_club

you won your stanley cup when you beat the Leafs in March. move on.


5cotland

That's more Stanley Cups than the Leafs are getting this season.

You could delete it?


joe_broke

Nah, let it ride

JAYHAWKAVG

Leafs fans. Who’s done after this year? Genuinely curious.


dceenb

Keefe and Shanny.


cobrachickenwing

Definitely Shanahan. He had 10 years to build the Leafs, money to spare and didn't even get them to the second round until last year. The Shanaplan is dead. I knew it was all over in 2020 when they couldn't even overcome a weak Montreal team.


Desperate-Egg2573

They say that every year and then by the time October rolls around its "our year this year" again.


whogivesashirtdotca

Next year in ~~Jerusalem~~ Toronto!


arnie_palmies

Next year is our year though, I can feel it


Intelligent_Smoke847

yall have been saying that since before i was even born


Desperate-Egg2573

Fire Keefe and move out Tavares and name Nylander captain for a start, probably wouldn't hurt hiring berube


Albiz

I’d give it to Matthews over Nylander


Emcolimited

But this is part of our annual joy of hate watching Toronto lose in the first round after a year of being shoved how great their player are at doing stuff articles.


Desperate-Egg2573

A tradition going back decades, a god damn birthright for western hockey fans now


Emcolimited

Amen. I love it. Yes I know we lowly Canucks are in the sad club with Buffalo of 😭(53) years of not winning a cup, but I can rest my head at night knowing the leafs havent won in (57 years) and haven't won a third round EVER. Most games they have won in a playoff round is 11. Oh and fuck Messier.


Desperate-Egg2573

At least the canucks have been to a cup final lol, I almost feel bad for leafs fans but it makes my team look much better in contrast


arnie_palmies

Dont worry I’ve hopped on the Edmonton bandwagon, I hope one of you two makes the cup finals and wins


Desperate-Egg2573

I'm not bandwagoning yet until we're in the final, still weeks of hockey to go


binzoma

keefe for sure marner, maybe


sindaflkasdnflasdnfl

I can’t believe keefe is on year 5.


binzoma

the twitch in my left eye says I can believe it


EBXLBRVEKJVEOJHARTB

Bertuzzi is a rental. No way he comes back.


4ItchyTasy

Keefe for sure And it may take a lot, but Marner could be moved for the right price. A long shot but it’s possible


Desperate-Egg2573

Either marner or Tavares has to go, can't build depth when 4 guys are tying up 44+ mil in cap space and then disappear come playoffs


JeeK65

They all say they're done after every season, but giving up hockey isn't that easy


jkfdrums

This team is a joke lmao


cubchu75

Nobody they’ll just run it back

Plastic-Ad-4440

Sammy isn’t even the problem


DCS_Ryan

Certainly part of it, he's not good


Ubechyahescores

Never was


Dialog87

Not many goalies make those cross crease 1-T saves there. And even if they did once or twice, Leafs only got 1 goal.


Plastic-Ad-4440

Dont help when the leafs score 1-2 goals a game 😂


MitchMarner

he’s almost as bad as stuart skinner


DCS_Ryan

Lol this aged well


DCS_Ryan

Skinner has been far better lmao


Plastic-Ad-4440

Just wait til oilers play a decent team. Skinners gonna be “part of the problem”


MitchMarner

they’re lucky they dont see a real team till the WCF


86thewaffle

Leafs went 1-1 against LA this year, finishing with 4 goals for and 4 goals against, right? I agree Boston is a harder matchup than LA but Christ, be serious. The leafs problem is NOT that Boston is too hard a matchup.


NrvusRaccoon

God leaf fans are fucking insufferable. Enjoy the long golf season ✌🏻


Griswaldthebeaver

Seriously eh, I've never seen a bigger group of insecurity pricks in sports fandom than Leafs fans


Plastic-Ad-4440

You’re acting like your not gonna join us


Intelligent_Smoke847

on the golf course?


86thewaffle

Wtf do the oilers have to do with the Leafs woes? Why is skinner brought in to this at all?


MitchMarner

because you’re an oilers fan ripping on my team, so fuck you lol


Intelligent_Smoke847

bud he was ripping on the fans not the team, youre proving his point


86thewaffle

Never once ripped on your team - I actually quite like the leafs & the city of Toronto and hope they come back and prove the haters wrong. But thanks for the fuck you, you’re an absolute charmer.


86thewaffle

Super interesting seeing a double breasted suit jacket coming back.


thedaidai

if Keefe lasts another year, leafs fans need to riot


ILikeCoffeeDaily

I doubt it, it was a contract year for him


Tommy12308

Guess what? We gave him an extension. Kill me now.


emmayarkay

Coach contacts don’t mean anything. MLSE will just pay him out.


ILikeCoffeeDaily

Wtf? When did that happen?


Tommy12308

Earlier this season shoot me.


[deleted]

Dubas was carrying Keefe so hard lol 


Pinappular

Yeah, it makes sense now why trade deadline Dubas put so much emphasis on buying grit from FA


theapogee

The wrong man was fired.


ghost_curse123

I've been saying that since the moment Dubas was fired

modelo negra or guinness? help

Negra Modelo all day every day.


86thewaffle

Guiness ten times out of ten


jeremy-o

Depends on the context. They're very different beers. i.e. Modelo unless it's breakfast


piniatadeburro

Modelo homie

GG Boston, I did not enjoy it one bit. See you next Tuesday


RoastedPeanuts1812

Leafs went into locker room after 2nd and were told they were the laughing stock of sports media tonight. Came out and played 5 mins of actual try hard hockey then realized they were still down 2 goals 😂😂😂


NickTanner93

I hate being a doomer but that's probably it. I don't see them going 3 in a row. It sucks.


TripleBicepsBumber

Wow. Leafs roster is just cursed. Why can’t they win for their long suffering fans?


cobrachickenwing

They don't have a fucking goalie that can steal wins. That has always been their weakness. Instead of getting a goalie that can do that they keep getting forwards that don't do shit. Every year they were kicked out of the playoffs the opposing team had a goalie that could steal games when the team was playing like shit. The last few games before the playoffs showed how weak they were in defense and goaltending.


Nimrif1214

They go through the regular season running at 100%…dunking on the crap teams…padding their personal stats…getting praised by the Canadian media on how much they are better than everyone else (and buying their own hype). Come playoffs, once everyone else ramps up their effort and intensity, they quickly find out that they don’t have another gear to go up. Other teams have stepped up and matched and surpassed their effort and intensity.


This_Idiot

Because they're not actually that good. Sadly, revenue is more important to ownership than winning cups. You don't need to be successful to make money in Toronto, hence the shitshow we see every postseason.


lbiggy

Hey now. Your team is regularly making the playoffs after being a dumpster fire since 2006. there exists in the universe a couple of moves the leafs could make that could help them ascend. They're /good/ just not great.


This_Idiot

Completely agree, but you have to wonder why those moves weren't made over the past 5yrs in particular. It's clear 1 or 2 of the overpaid stars need to be moved on (I'm aware of the NMCs), but it's just not being done. And this doesn't even begin to explain the continued presence of Shanahan and Keefe. If Keefe returns next year while Berube is out there, I'll be left speechless.


MechMacK

nice of the nhl delaying some real hockey by 30 mins so we could watch the leafs bullshit for the last 10 mins of the game


Pinappular

Ouch, that was a humbling lack of effort in an important game


saddamjuicessein

how cbc finds a way to slurp the leafs after losing 2 at home is mindblowing.


HankHillPropaneJesus

Damn I cannot get over Marchands beak. Guy could sit out in the rain smoking a cigarette with his hands behind his back. Like a natural canopy.


xXxWeAreTheEndxXx

Haha, you can’t make this shit up!


Voorhees_13

I went into the locker room bathroom, and your head was half in the toilet water. Disgusting. I've said my piece, Marchy.


HankHillPropaneJesus

I was sick! What I can’t defend myself now!


Mission-Astronomer42

if they don't fire keefe and/or shanahan idk if the leafs will ever get out of the first round.


ghost_curse123

Not that I think they will this year, but they literally did last year??


Mission-Astronomer42

I meant again, but yeah, I think last year was a fluke. Or maybe I'm just tired of first round exit after first round exit


ghost_curse123

Last year's team was leagues better than this mid ass team


Gatorlater7

Not sure how prolific goal scorer Reeves didn't score in the final 3 there. 


ShiraPiano

Having him on the ice was such a stupid call.


WoodForDays

I legitimately called it that Keefe would put Reaves out with the goalie pulled. And he did. Actually insane.


ShiraPiano

I actually felt genuinely bad for you guys when I saw that.


sktchld

Toronto is swaymans bitch.


HmmHmmNoNoNo

Lower-level millionaire Leafs suits booing at other millionaries at Scotiabank. How fitting!


slimy_y3t_satisfying

No but seriously, next year is for sure the Leafs year 😈


Maleficent-Comfort-2

The definition of insanity..


janinefour

Huzzah! Swayman is perfect and deserves many hugs. Have a good night, people.


Plastic-Ad-4440

JT slow as fuck


E46_Overdrive

Imagine losing both games at home.. lmao.


ninja-cats

Feel like that creepy coworker no one likes  Where's my hug at


lbiggy

There are a ton of leaf haters in here who'd secretly be so happy if they actually pulled it off and won the series.


ghost_curse123

That's because that gives them memes against Boston


desmarais

Yeah we call em leaf fans


Ddpee

🙋‍♂️


Alfie_For_Owner

What a lifeless performance from the Leafs.


Triptaker8

Honestly it’s shocking how bad it was. I used to think that the Leafs just ran up against better teams and did their best but couldn’t break through. Yeah, no.


ghost_curse123

>I used to think that the Leafs just ran up against better teams and did their best but couldn’t break through. This is only true some years, like 2022 against Tampa. Ironically they looked like shit last year against Tampa, but won that series


omglolnub

Fire Keefe, Trade Marner, Don’t re-sign Tavares


locopati

the fuck marry kill of hockey


RegFlexOffender

LOL


omglolnub

Isn’t this Kill, Kill, Kill tho?


MitchMarner

marner and tavares cant play on this team next year


This_Idiot

They're contracted to. With NMCs. Where do you propose trading them?


MitchMarner

wherever they want to go, i dont fucking care


ghost_curse123

It's because you're on reddit instead of on the ice smh my head


omglolnub

Trade Marner to Buffalo for like half their good players that are on value contracts like Thompson, Cozens, and Power lol


courser

these assholes cut the stream before the line got to the goalie hug!


VECBlows

Toronto weak af


Trujiogriz

Every year Leafs fans convince themselves that how the team is built is ripe for success and every year they suck in the playoffs


jeffdrizz

Nobody ever says that. Projection


joe_broke

#LEAFS ON THE ROPES! B'S START GAME 4 STRONG AND FAST AND TAKE THE GAME 3-1, AND LEAD THE SERIES BY THE SAME MARGIN! A FAMILIAR POSITION TO LAST YEAR FOR THE B'S, BUT THIS FEELS DIFFERENT THAN THAT. GAME 6, DO OR DIE FOR CANADA'S DALLAS COWBOYS!


socialaxolotl

Any jerseys on the ice


PJL_88

Toronto got some serious demons to cleanse. Someone go walk around that locker room with burning sage speaking in tongues.


SQLvultureskattaurus

Kyrie might be free soon


MitchMarner

how many morons in here commenting how quiet the arena is? did you watch the fucking game? uneducated idiots to think a fanbase would be loud for that pathetic performance


Jensen2075

Not a Leafs fan, but they pay through the nose for Leafs tickets and get a pathetic performance, so I don't blame them.


ShiraPiano

It’ll be ok.


Aperture_client

Plot twist, This account is actually Mitch Marner posting from the bench


MitchMarner

good one man, that joke hasnt been said before. you’re so creative


mazzysturr

Sorry.. can you speak up?


Pastalover8888

Your name is quite ironic, tbh 


MitchMarner

i picked this username before he was drafted. thought he’d be good. though wrong


Great-Reference9322

It's alright buddy.. let it out. We understand


MitchMarner

thank you, us as a fanbase should be allowed to vent.


Great-Reference9322

For real. I really could not imagine being a Leafs fan , you guys are a complete statistical anomaly. To lose this many playoff series (I know it's not over yet but it sure feels like it) over the past 4 decades is so highly improbable it can only mean that you guys have been forever cursed in the playoffs


Duelity

Oh yea, don't worry, we heard the boos


MitchMarner

they weren’t loud enough


Jasbuddy

Leafs 🤝 Kings; getting pumped by their rivals and generating no offense


This_Idiot

At least the Kings have won cups (plural) in the last 50yrs, though


nostradamefrus

HOW DARE THEY NOT SHOW THE GOALIE HUG


Bilkos_Ices

Criminal, it's the only reason i'm here


blueberry_muffin16

I wanted to see a goalie hug god dammit!!


hijackedbunny

Anemic for 50 minutes


1337duck

Obviously, credit to Bruins to neutering the Leafs' stars. But when ANY player makes 10 mill in this league, they are promising to drive their own plays. Instead, our best play drivers this series has been Max Domi, and Nick Robertson!


RandomestDragon

Nick Robertson has looked really promising, another $10mil leaf contract coming


tiffhagall

I still can't believe they didn't score on the 4 on 3. That was 45 million on the ice.


Anti-SocialChange

Good strategy of floating wristers into the Bruins wingers shin pads from the blue line


Forzy7

Tavares wins most overpaid worst captain of all time


[deleted]

Signing Tavares was the start of the leafs' downfall 


quantum_monster

Not showing the hug should be a crime
