Game 61 - Sharks @ Leafs- Feb 23rd, 2012 - 7:00 PM EST - TSN, AM640

Reimer hasn't been the biggest problem tonite.  8 SOG or whatever it is IS the problem.  Also skating in sand doesn't help.
 
So 3 points in 8 games unless they can pull something out here?

Another meltdown month nuking the season, year after year same thing even after the roster has been flipped like crazy you can tell where I'm going with this.
 
Leafs kind of remind me of a Team Canada opponent that barely have twelve hockey sticks in their entire country.  The Leafs are so far from being a cohesive unit it's not even funny.  Has any G.M. ever traded 20 players at the trade deadline?
 
They played timid in the 1st period and didn't bother to show up beyond center ice in the 2nd.
 
The Leafs are just not skating at all. There is zero sense of urgency and it looks like they're content with dumping the puck out to centre ice on every play. Very frustrating to watch and man, it's a very boring game when the Leafs don't generate any speed.

I know I sound like a broken record harping on Wilson but this game, at home, when they are struggling to hold on to the last playoff spot, and they come out and look like they couldn't be bothered?  Mind-boggling.

And it drives me crazy that Phaneuf just stands there next to Marleau and doesn't even make a move to tie up his stick on the tip goal.

Coach + captain = lack of leadership on this outfit.

Seems kind of a low return for Carter.

Happy Jack playing in Columbus, yeah that's going to work.

Wow, trading that 8th overall pick looks a little off now... Voracek, Couturier and a 3rd for Johnson and a mid round 1st?

Columbus, we hardly knew ye.
 
Losing 7 of 8 at this time of year is unacceptable, fire the coach and trade who you can for a decent return. Bring Eakins in to coach the remainder of the year to audition for next year.
