      This, whenever I see a Leafs game like this, it honestly feels like they feel like "We're the better team, the more talented team. We don't have to put in the effort to beat them." So they don't. And they lose. Why? Because Hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard. And it's always the case in games like this with them.

      Zadorov got suspended 2 for a totally unintentional head hit during the course of play. He deserved the 2 games, but a crosscheck aimed at someones neck/head after play is over...and not even in the heat of a moment, he had to skate from in front of his net to get there... HAS to be 4+, especially since he doesnt get time served on the game misconduct since it was at the end of the game unlike Perron or Zadorov. If he was kicked out early in the game then 2-3 might be more reasonable based on time served.

    This is why I like Steve. Underneath all the passion, he usually has very level headed takes about incidents like the Reilly/Grieg one and he nailed it. Reilly needed to respond to Grieg, but he went too far. Grieg's a rat and will do rat things to get under the skin of other players and fan bases, especially if that fan base thinks they own his home rink. If it was reverse, and it was Gregor slapping it into an empty net, and Brady going after him, the media response and the fan takes would be the complete opposite of what it is now. And I am glad there is a passionate, yet level headed fans like Dangle who can call it straight without too much bias.

      They Leafs don't have the assets to make a significant trade and there are too many roster problems that need to be addressed. Even if the Leafs miss the playoffs or lose in the 1st round, what changes can they make next offseason? This team will have 53% of next year's cap tied up by four players. The FO has no money to sign the depth you need for a contending team.

      The Leafs aren’t legit contenders, and management must realize that by now. I’m not sure they’ll make the playoffs this year, for that matter. D is a shambles, G is terribly untrustworthy, whole team makes bonehead mistakes game after game after game with no apparent consequences from coaching staff, etc etc. The salary structure and lousy drafting means there’s no significant help coming from anywhere. The Shanaplan may have made millions for MLSE, which is the goal for professional sports after all, but it’s doomed the Leafs to at least another decade of playoff failure.

    • @FalconFlyer75
      @FalconFlyer75 7 місяців тому +2

      what would a trade do?
      the problem isn't lack of talent (which a trade can fix) its not caring enough like Steve said
      the whole reason fans defended that hit from Reilly (when it was suspension worthy and Cheap, and Salty) is because they're so starved for seeing a player actually care enough to HATE LOSING to the point that it actually pushes them to do something like that
      (yes it was classless to do an Empty Net slapshot 3 feet away when u already won the series, hence why even the sens captain didn't like it, and I wouldn't have liked it if the Leafs did that to the sens if they already won the series)
      but he felt safe doing that because he didn't believe the players cared enough to do anything about it
      if every Leafs player cared half as much as Reilly did in that one moment they would have stomped Ottawa into the ground in all 4 games
      the only thing that can fix this problem is players actually learning something from this
      theres no way a team this stacked should lose to ottawa 3/4 times (and need their goalie to steal the 1 win they got)
      next time I'd rather see the team show that they care during gameplay, not afterwards using a move that just gets the rest of the franchise to brand them cowards and sore losers anyways, sure some players might look at that and think (oh we shouldnt push the leafs too much) but overall u need to channel that into your game

Premier League soccer players have 1000x the pressure. Why are only hockey players the ones who cant handle it? That's what the money is for! You're supposed to be an elite, ice-in-veins athlete
    In Toronto, the bar is FOUR POSTSEASON WINS, and people think it's hard to play here? Every year, 25% of the teams in the league accomplish that, and that's including the 3-5 teams that are purposely trying to lose, so in reality that percentage is 30%. That is NOT a high bar for a team that's always at the cap, with now FOUR 11M players

It hard and embarrassing to be at a road game whenever the Leafs and Habs come to town. Hearing "go Leafs go" all night sucks, and Greig punctuating the game with the slapshot was his way of saying thanks to the Ottawa fans. I'm not ok with the cross check to the head, but the response from Reilly is expected and that's what SHOULD happen in those scenarios. That's hockey. Great call Steve.

    The Leaf's first line.... I think all of them have taken an Ottawa game, or more, off this year. Evem Johnny has delivered a bad one and a half.
    One or more players on the rest of the lines are looking at that, playing with it, all of them listening, and learning how the team wants to behave. Steve.... you don't think Sheldon Keefe cares? Just look at him. Just remember how Keefe looked on the bench for "all" of the Ottawa games!!!! He looks like a coach who's about to just explode on the bench. I mean every Ottawa game Keefe has looked like he's about to spontaneously discombobulate into a quivering pool of human porridge; bubbling in frustration, anger, disgust, and shame. I imagine he'd look almost as bad as you do in this video Steve. Sorry... you've lost it. Yet again!!!
    The whole team is part of the break down. It's too bad. This team lacks the fire in the belly. The team isn't hungry. The team is.... off and on; but mostly... off. The Leafs luck is running out. As you point out, quite loudly, this team is feeding us the same product. Over, and Over, and over again.
    The team lacks a real shared identity and it doesn't look like it's trying to honestly develop, nurture, and embrace one. The season isn't over yet... but; it's closer to being over than I think any of us want to admit honestly.

    I didn’t see passion from Rielly. I saw a guy upset he lost and letting his emotions get the best of him. You know what I say, put in some damn effort, this goes for the whole team. At the end of the day the Sens won when they were doubted upon, that slap shot was a message that they ain’t no scrub.
    As for the Leafs, I’ve already lost all beleaf in them for this season at least. This team doesn’t have a winning culture as is, until then they’ll just watch as the humiliation of their cup drought gets longer and longer.

      no, wrong. objectively, inarguably, wrong. the slapshot was disrespect, and rielly responded accordingly. ridly greig might not have left the ice with a career against a guy like jacob trouba. you don't do that shit.

      ​@@TheKitKatThecool, every time a Leaf does something another fan base thinks is "disrespectful" that team can select a Leaf to get cross checked in the head. Got it.

      ​@@TheKitKatTheit's the leafs fault. Don't want shit like that to happen? Don't lose to a bottom feeding team. The Sens did right by their fans. And now the leafs are gonna be without one of their top Dman in a tight playoff race . You'll be a fool to get too comfortable when there's so many teams that can go on a run and take our spot.

    To add to Steve's point about being prepared: Ottawa had 14 pts in the last 10 games leading up to the game VS the Leafs. In the East only Detroit has done better in the last 10 games with 15 points. The season record for the sens doesn't tell the whole story, their coaching change has them playing much better. Yet another reason the Leafs coaches and players should have come prepared for the game.

    Imagine if Matthews didi something douchy and a Sens crosschecked him in the face. Leafs clowns would be crying for a 100 games suspension.

    Suck it up cupcakes...the Sens are a better team. The Laffs are barely hanging in to a wildcard spot...looks good on the losers. Get the clubs ready.
