Another high scoring series? Should be fun. For pure entertainment and watching people lose their shit, it would be funny if Vegas won. Kind of hoping the Ducks can keep rolling. They're fun to watch.
 
I think Marner absolutely got more blame than he deserved but it's also pretty clear that he wasn't producing like this in the playoffs with the Leafs. Sometimes you need a culture shift and the Leafs never went that route.

Dostal also looks terrible right now and I honestly can't recall a single series where the Leads genuinely faced bad goaltending (maybe Vasilevskiy in the series they beat Tampa but even then I don't think he was bad but rather just average)

Vasi was bad that series. 3.56GAA, .875SV%...Samsonov went 3.18GAA, .898SV%..
You are def correct about Marner getting more blame then he should have.
 
I blame the core 4 equally. No matter how you spin it, 4 forwards making half the cap doesn't allow for a deep enough team to be competitive in the playoffs. Any of the core 4 (in their prime) on Vegas would probably be putting up big numbers.

Yup they all should share the blame. Depth was a huge problem for the Leafs in the post season. Every team needs depth scoring to have success. You can't have the B6 pitching zeros.
