if a player uncorked a niagara falls of diarrhea on to the ice mid-play, they'd have to stop the game and bring out the zambonis right? I'm talking like a "Clint Malarchuk fleeing the ice for his life" level of diarrhea coating the playing field. can't believe Auston Matthews was so selfish he would just sit a game out with the bubble guts smdh

I’m just visualizing Keefe losing his job, even if the Leafs somehow fluke out a few games against the Bruins there’s better teams lurking around the playoff picture and every single series for years now has just been miserable to watch, win or lose.

I cannot believe “respect in the handshake line” wasn’t the final straw with him and I’ve had to see multiple years worth of quotes afterwards

It’s incredible, could prolly get any coach you want in a place like Toronto and they are sticking with respectful handshake guy

Has a coach ever actually been fired in the playoffs? Given the new coach bounce does appear to be a legit thing - would it be in the playoffs where everyone is (usually giving 100%) who knows but might be worth a try.

I don’t think there’s any clearer evidence of “these guys are being coached flat-out wrong” than Kevin Bieksa, of all people, pointing out that in their 4v3 setup there’s literally nobody in position to get the puck if Tavares wins the draw, which is exactly what happened and lead to a clear. A lefty, on his strong side, and the only skater behind him is all the way to the right. Basic, basic poo poo

I just think it’s a bad look for an active head coach to be shown up strategically by a current TV broadcaster/former defenceman who played their last game before he even entered the league

Toronto should absolutely fire Keefe tonight if it’s allowed. He’s obviously gone if/when they lose this series, so they might as well do it now and hope for a new coach bump

Rantanen and Georgiev are supposedly good friends going back to their 2014-2015 TPS Turku team days so he might be more willing to say some harsher words than with other teammates and Rantanen is intense to the point that when he made it into the league in 2016-2017 MacKinnon asked him to filter all gameplay ideas outside of practice through Landeskog.

This is from overtime in the March 16th game this year between the Avs and Oilers. Not sure what it was all about but to me it looks like Rantanen is saying "Shut the gently caress up, shut the gently caress up, I loving hear you, gently caress you" not "Shut the gently caress up, shut the gently caress up, I'll loving kill you, gently caress you"

edit: Also, I think Rantanen's only(???) fight was also a game misconduct because it turns out he tapes his hands under his gloves to make slashes hurt less and you can't fight with taped hands

Can't wait to find out if Washington is the only team that gets swept out of the first round or if they manage to avoid that.

No but you see Keefe got the current Leafs group their first series win last year against a declining Lightning team that narrowly avoided being swept out of the first round this season, clearly that merits a lifetime contract extension.

i mean, it’s Tony D, who doesn’t wanna punch Tony D. but I think Georgie likes to be a little confrontational with his teammates. he wouldn’t be the first goalie like that. Hank was notorious for screaming at his defensemen. but then again, he’s Hank and he was playing behind Staal/Girardi/Del Zotto/etc. It’s a bit different when you’re letting in 7 goals in a game 1 and you’re yelling at Mikko Rantanen
