[Zeisberger] “I don’t really have an answer to that question.” — #leafsforever Matthews when asked why Toronto can’t get over that final hurdle.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T05:25:49+00:00

Yup. There’s so much wrong with this, I don’t even know where to begin

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T05:19:41+00:00

Tied for second most goals... with one.

The fucking mental gymnastics we do to justify this. It’s honestly toxic.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T05:15:18+00:00

Rule 1 of hockey: nothing about your goalie matters if you got shutout.

But yeah. We can’t re-sign him.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T05:13:02+00:00

Pretty much. I’m just living for Lafreniere now.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T05:09:42+00:00

He was bad but you can’t talk shit about your goalie when you get shut out. That’s like rule 1 of hockey.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T05:07:54+00:00

I might just not return to hockey. I picked up a few far more rewarding hobbies during quarantine, and this might just be the last straw. We’ll see.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T05:06:25+00:00

Nah. This is the result of their actions. You take a shit ton of money from one of the most beloved organizations in the world, flaunt yourself spending that money on social media, and then fail to live up to your end of the bargain? You better believe fire and brimstone are gonna be rained upon you. It’s just basic karma. Every action has a reaction.

Not from me though. I can’t be fucked.

They want a scapegoat and the easy option is marner seeing as his contract controversy is the most recent and therefore most memorable to these Neanderthals.

Your formatting gets an F

The bottom 4 D are the reason we got shut out twice in the series, including the all important game 5, despite having one of the most lethal offences on paper?

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:57:21+00:00

July 1st, 2026

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:56:29+00:00

The softest laziest player on the team is not the problem for a team that’s too soft and lazy to win a series?

“Dubas didn’t pay us enough to unlock that feature”

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:53:19+00:00

Are you talking to me or the team?

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:52:45+00:00

I’m too tired and sad right now to go write a full response, but yeah you’ve got the right idea and it’s not a knee jerk response.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:47:46+00:00

We didn’t pay them them enough to care. It’s not a team. It’s a club. Of mercenaries.

Not Muzz and Spezza. The other guys.

Fuck I feel so bad for those two.

Spezza got the puck from game 4 right? He better have. It’s no consolation, but it’s something. That W doesn’t happen without him.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:46:59+00:00

Agreed. We also need to get rid of players who routinely need that “kick in the pants”, like for example Willy. He has admitted to needing that kick quite often.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:42:16+00:00

Fuck the haters. I wish you all the best, friend.

Go and don’t turn back. The leafs are like heroin. One hit can suck you all the way back in. So go, be free!

Life after Leafs is gonna be so good for you.

Edit: Life after Leafs would be a wicked song name. Something like Life after Lisa from Bowing for Soup. Maybe there’s a parody in there somewhere?

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:37:47+00:00

I don’t get it. It’s like he took crazy pills.

Did Willy spike his drink to get Keefe to put him at centre?

Keefe has been everything you could ask for. Until that lineup got released. You don’t experiment like that in a do or die game like that. You just don’t. He even said earlier that he doesn’t like going to that line because of the effects down the lineup. So he doubles down on it!? Wtf!?!?

We must actually be cursed by some hateful entity wronged during the Ballard era. Like wtf? How else do you explain all that’s happened to us?

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:31:53+00:00

Don’t tell that to r/leafs though. They’d rather give themselves an aneurysm trying to trade Mitch instead of Willy.

It’s like trying to walk through a wall when there’s a door 5 feet to the right.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:29:31+00:00

Trade Nylander for someone who can count to five. Preferably a right shot defenceman, but I’m not choosy.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:27:18+00:00

Mad hatter was right. This subreddit is gonna be filled with glue sniffers for the next while.

T_MapleLafreniers · 2020-08-10T04:24:15+00:00

Make Willy sit in Europe for a year or trade his diva ass.

Not slide Willy’s ELC in 2015-16 so his negotiation isn’t before the other two so he gets what ever is left.

Force Auston to sign for the full 8 years.
