I remember the day Tavares signed with them. I assumed they had at least 4 or 5 Cup runs in them before Tavares' contract ended. Glad to see it didnt happen as a Bruins fan lol.
I just dont know how you can trust 49% of your cap in 4 players and achieve only regular season elite status...and they're not even the best at that. The Bruins and the Lightning and then the Avs are arguably still better throughout this decade...with much more reasonable cap space to insert reliable depth. this team just also doesn't give a shit after 82 games.
Whenever I think of the Leafs my mind immediately goes to Dangle having his epic meltdown over them losing to a 42 year old zamboni driver... who works for them...
Tavares, Thornton, Spezza.....when the hell did these guys get it in their head that Toronto was their best bet for one last shot at a Stanley Cup. So stupid.
I saw a quote that said something along the lines of if the Maple Leafs were a business who pumped out the same mediocre product year after year, they would have gone out of business years ago. The Leafs need less flashy 60 goal scorer frat boy types and more guys who want to win at any cost. While the front office has its fair share of fault the guys on the ice are the ones who have to care at the end of the day.
I didn't look at Tavares as a home run. He's a great player and all of that don't get me wrong but they had a lot of young scoring. They needed help on D and more depth. I just thought they could spend that $ better.
A bunch of players making Stanley Cup vet money with 0 rings to back up those salaries. 11 mil Will is abig fish in a small pond. Put him with actual forwards and he'll do exactly what Sundin did. Nothing for 27 games. Whole team needs to be gutted and sold
This team is so depressing to watch, despite the Leafs' high-end talent. They make the playoffs every year from 2017, but only won their playoff series once last year.
@@RedHotHockeyYYC we aren’t winning until everyone is fired. The management destroyed one of the most hopeful teams in the league into an utter disgrace.
Probably in the minority here, but maybe we shouldn't expect winning or being the best out of anyone. That's a lot of pressure on any team of people given that only 1/32 can win each year. It seems a little sort of like spoiled fans saying that their team was kick ass all season and then didn't win in the playoffs. Do they not see it's statistically impossible for all the teams to win? Do they not see teams like the Coyotes and Ottawa Senators struggling each year far worse than the leafs? When is acceptance acceptable?
The Core Four can't score in the playoffs! Maybe the problem is psychological? Either way Toronto fans are stuck with them. Other teams can see this too. 8 years and counting of this behavior! Do you think they 'snowjobbed' us enough?
The leafs overpaid their core 4!? They gave these guys huge contracts b4 they ever really accomplished anything!? U cant have 4 players taking up half the teams cap space!!? Especially when all 4 of those players r really kinda the same sorts of players!? Theyre all good offensively and r good scorers but that's about it!? They arent that good defensively!? Having scorers is great but u need good D and goaltending too if ur guna contend for the Cup!!!??
The team chooses to lose on purpose. There's no other way to explain winning 3 division titles since Hitler annexed Austria (Literally, look it up) They don't even win anything of minor substance. It's unreasonable to ascertain that any franchise could be this bad at winning.
The fact the Zamboni driver was mentioned in this video is a joke . They lost to the Hurricanes . Not a Zamboni driver . They could have put an orange cone in the net and still one ! The DRIVER had jack shit to do with it . Leafs gave up , and didn't try .
Can we stop saying David ares was a zamboni driver.. the media twisted this story so much its a piss off. Yes at one point he WAS a zamboni driver for the Marlies. But it was years and years before he played as the emergency back up. Why does everyone act like it was his current job at the time. It had zero relevance. His was ACTUALLY a fill In goalie for leafs practices when one or both goalies had an optional practice day.

I'm not even a Leafs fan, and this team is so depressing
rent free

@@husg13truth hurt? 😂
Depressing? It's hilarious. It couldn't happen to a more deserving fan base either lol
D e p r e s s i n g?
That's not how you spell Hilarious.
2021 is still the funniest.
Everyone always call them the core 4 but it should be core 5, why does everyone forget Morgan Reilly, he’s been there just as long as them
cuz he isnt making more than 9 mil😊
they gave the core four a shit ton of money with no cup to show for it
Whenever I think of the Leafs my mind immediately goes to Dangle having his epic meltdown over them losing to a 42 year old zamboni driver...
who works for them...
" Franchise record 105 points in 2017-18 !?? " Holy crap this franchise blows.
top 10 video to get baked too. very cool and nice music.
I don’t understand how leafs fans can watch this past year and say that this core will ever be anything
"We want florida"

I miss the days when Don Cherry threatened Burke by SCREAMING at him on Coach's Corner that night. Ron Maclean was scared about the tirade.
Matthew's deserves better. He plays to good to be with what he's got

Don’t you let that deal go down.
lol @ dubas caring about diversity when trying to build the business end of a hockey team. It all makes sense now
Being a Leaf fan sucks, being a Toronto sports fan sucks, my life just sucks!
😂 hang in there! I'm still holding out hope the Jays will turn things around

Wait why Raptors ,Toronto FC are last champions
Exorcism might help probably not
Do a video on buffalo
Isn't part of the problem is that ownership (Rogers) is meddlesome?
And bell .
If the leafs actually win, what are we going to talk about?
I had forgotten how insane canada was about covid

Marner is one of the best defensive fws in the league.

well I did nazi this one coming
They have won 13 Stanley cup , last one 1967
Lol
Just Wach
Liberal losers
That diversity worked out well eh....
Irrelevant
Cry more snowflake hockey bro
oh yeah the Leafs are losing because they hired Haley Wickenheiser and Mark Fraser you're so right lol
A lack of diversity didn't exactly fill the trophy case the 4 decades before that.
You fans put up with Ballard why should you get treated any better?
promising? what team are you watching?
Are you aware of sarcasm?
"big believer in diversity" and here we add another problem^^
and nepotism
Leafs in 7 😂

Bro, Ayres made 8 saves on 10 shots. Don’t discount him, he made it, you didn’t.

Because they lost to him. And it’s hilarious.
Don’t worry there’s a happy ending .
Your seasons over…🏒🎸👊🏼🍻
