Different team playing again tonight. Hard to gauge this team, but I don't think it's fair to dismiss them after two bad, strike that, two very bad outings.

It's not just the 2 very bad games though.  It's the Detroit home-and-home followed by the Islanders and Bruins blowout games too.  It's the consistently bad possession numbers.  It's getting outshot constantly.  It's the unforced errors.  It's sitting back with a lead and letting teams back into games.  It's not a question of two games, but a system problem over 160+ games.

Even during the 6-1-1 streak, there were really only 2 games were you can honestly say they played well for the full 60 minutes. The issues this season are really just a continuation of the issues from last season.
 
And to add to the wet blanket scenario, the oft referred to "best game" of the leafs season against Boston = no Chara, and no Krecji.

No need to be negative, It was an awesome game.
 
Clarkson had 2:11 shift in the final 3 minutes of the game because he didn't come off on a line change.  He didn't do a heavy forecheck...he stood in the neutral zone and just didn't go to the bench.  His line gave up that goal Stamkos and was hemmed in the whole time.  Dummy.

Yes Clarkson is a dummy, just as much as Gardiner in the first.

It was a good game by the whole team. Bernier shines in the third....
