The Leafs remain the least successful Canadian team in the NHL.

Not to excuse the results, but Matthews also was clearly injured to end the year and through the playoffs. Watching him stand still and defer every puck on the PP was painful

I didn’t mind his game, but it sure stinks when the other team’s fourth line is doing a lot. It’s not really a fair comparison for him though. Once Spezza came in and he could act more like a winger he got better too.

It’s not about being mad at previous lines, it’s a desperate attempt to scrape up some legitimacy from a charlatan who has no answers

They should have hired Trotz after game 4, or whenever he was first available.

:hmmyes:

Keefe is really extremely incompetent. I think the only coach in the NHL right now I wouldn't happily swap him for is Hakstol. Dude is just out of his league.

Wouldn't be surprised at all if the Leafs are all over the bidding for Quenneville the rapist protector, which would be a really awkward way to finally win a playoff series or two.

Also wouldn't be surprised if they brought Paul Maurice back. They are the Maple Leafs after all.

Yeah I won't be surprised at all if we hear in a couple days he already had surgery. I suspect if it had happened in January he'd have missed 6 weeks but he tried his damnedest to be Patric Hornqvist since he was playing with one arm and couldn't shoot at all.

Apparently it happened in Ottawa in like game 75 or something, just really lovely timing.

Leafs have so many people on staff. I'm laying the blame for this year's playoff failure on Paul MacLean, who I forgot was an assistant coach, and Eric Joyce, the Director of Hockey Strategy. Hayley Wickenheiser has to go too.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

my hot take is that the leafs shouldnt blow up anything and they are actually a very good team who got poo poo luck with the seeding this year.
The collapses of the past seem very different than losing to Tampa :shrug:
i know this is the exact line management will probably use but i think its actually correct this time
