What a pathetic display of hockey from the Leafs, pathetic Leaf fans for littering the ice and even more pathetic idiots inside Maple Leaf Square claiming its their year before the puck even dropped!

I really hope they let MM16 and his 14M asking price - WALK!
Doesn't sound like Marner is asking for even the most minimal of discoutns.. The Leafs stars have always been paid a tad above market vs comps.

Might as well let him go, take that cap space, sign a few players to balance the middle of your lineup and hope it pays off.

They needed that game 3 to set themselves up like they did with Ottawa.
They lost 4 & 5 but they won game 6
Florida should make the Finals again.

Marner was in tears on the bench it appeared with 2.5 minutes to play.
He probably knows that is likely his last game in a Leafs jersey.

Out of interest, I looked in Max Pacioretty's background. His great grandparents left Italy in the 1920s to escape fascism. If it wasn't for bleak circumstances they would never have left the Varese region.

Spent almost a week there in the mid-90s. Pure serenity with an impeccably tailored Italian landscape. Not many tourists back then. Ate at Al Sorriso in the nearby Novara hills, a Ma and Pa Piedmontese restaurant, if Ma and Pa had a Michelin star or two. Maybe the Leafs could go there for some R&R head-adjustments.

Its early in the third, but imho the better team is winning.

The Leafs turnover the puck, miss passes, flub shots, and if it wasn't for Woll the score right now would be 5 to 1 at least...

And the Panthers do it all RIGHT! So few mistakes, and much better position play.
You could be describing the Rangers, my beloved cursed team since The Gumper was in the nets. '94 was but a hiccup: Messier burped. That's all it was.

The Panthers finished 10 points behind the Leafs at the end of the regular season but were favoured in all 7 games of this series. Florida is a team built for playoff hockey the Leafs are built for regular season success. Someone mentioned signing Bennett and Marchand, can’t see them leaving a perennial cup contender for Toronto not to mention having to pay a shitload more income tax.

The Leafs will NEVER be a real contender unless they can get rid of Rielly. 3 more years of the worst defensive liability at 7.5 mil. Buy him out at all costs.
Keep KNIES, DOMI and TANEV, Goaltending is not the problem.
Get rid rest of the team. espeacailly the BUM CORE 4
Get players like Marchand , Bennet, Matthew Tkachuk , Corey Perry , those players have grit and heart to win
Doug Gilmour and Wendal clark had grit and heart
