Pathetic defence so f'n soft makes me wanna vomit. Knock the guy down at the blue line not just waltz in.

How many icings did they take there?  My God.
 
Keefe should be fired but the core needs to be broken up too.  Pitiful performance in a must win game.

Seven years and still being nervous in the playoffs is embarrassing

Useless fricking team.  They learned nothing from beating Tampa.  This is a fragile team

They didn't really deserve to beat Tampa.

I said after that series that Dubas had saved his job.  Now I'm not so sure.  It's inexcusable how bad they look right now.

They're going to clean house if they get swept.
 
The only players who looked halfway decent were K?mpf, who was actually more than decent, he was full money, Woll, and maybe Lafferty.

I'd site McCabe and Gio next game and put Timmins in and Liljegren back in.

They just don't have the compete level. I'm tired of hearing they're so talented it looks like they aren't trying. No, they're playing dumb hockey. They aren't pushing the pace and are playing so passively. Why can't we match Florida's forecheck? It makes no sense. This kind of performance in a game 3 is inexcusable.
 
I hate how slow this team has become.  Unforced mistakes. Over and over and over again.  I hope they get swept at this point because I WANT changes.  This core has their chance and they failed.  Again...and again....and again.  When every team eventually goalies your stats it's a player problem.

We aren't going to be better for making these changes but this team isn't winning anything and I'm tired of listening to them talk about learning lessons after games. 

The captain did absolutely nothing all game.  He's the least movable guy.

Say it again and to all my haters on here this team doesn't have what it takes to win in the playoffs and I blame the core who should be carrying the team but have again disappeared when it matters most. Other teams hit you when they can and not so much driving people into the boards just taking the body. After the whistle teams take exceptions on our stars. What do we do sweet f all. I haven't watched much of this series but after the Bennett hit on Knies which should have been a suspension no-one addressed it. I know it was a tight game but was Bennett even hit today? Bloody joke. Great regular season team but I guess that's ok for some and management. If this core isn't different come October I'll promise to F off.

Schenn couldn't make a pass lol.

I am a huge fan of Luke but like Gio he's faded badly as the games have worn on.  McCabe too.

Sorry to have to say it, it would have been nice to have Sandin as an option.
 
None of the lines could generate any sustained offence and the only forward who takes the body regularly is Accari.  Last years model was more dangerous.
 
I really thought they might thrive after getting the R1 monkey off their backs.  How very wrong I was.
 
Watch the other series and that's playoff hockey. Leafs should watch tapes of these games and see what it takes. Our core is only interested in commercials and $.
