The Leafs outplayed Tampa in OT when it really mattered.
In the playoffs last year vs tampa the Leafs won all 3 ot games.Really? Cause this stat would probably suggest otherwise:
Maples Leafs Playoff Overtime Record 2015-16 To 2021-22 | StatMuse
The Toronto Maple Leafs were 3-7-0 in the playoffs in overtime games between the 2015-16 and 2021-22 seasons.www.statmuse.com
Not to mention the last two games against Florida.
I think the Leafs defense looked better without McCabe. Sometimes 5 defenseman works well they all get plenty of ice time and they get into the game.It appears you jumped the gun on this one.
McCabe played all of 10 seconds so they were shorthanded on D all game.
They let in 1 goal against Dallas who had no regulation losses prior to this one.
Granted Woll was fantastic again but the D did look better.
Have to say though whenever Reaves is on Leafs are stuck in their own end.
I don't think they looked better because it was 5 D. They looked better because McCabe just hasn't been that good so with him out it brings up the average. Quite frankly Holl is probably better than McCabe. McCabe is -4 this year. Worse of all Leaf D. Holl is +7 leads his team.I think the Leafs defense looked better without McCabe.

Yah that too.I don't think they looked better because it was 5 D. They looked better because McCabe just hasn't been that good so with him out it brings up the average. Quite frankly Holl is probably better than McCabe. McCabe is -4 this year. Worse of all Leaf D. Holl is +7 leads his team.
Holy fuck...The Habs will do better then the Leafs this year.
They have 3 goalie that could be #1 in Toronto
Because that is what they agreed to?The Leafs lost to LA Kings 4:1 tonight. Why are we still paying those 6 Leafs forwards $10 millions each? Why are we still paying Austin Mathews big bucks, as highest paid player in NHL?
.
Raptors are no better. Masai Ugerie should be fired, not Nick Nurse.

Agreed. Kings played well and Leafs didn't play particularly well. Hence the result.jesus, dont give the KINGS any credit, they played a solid road game. bertuzzi looks absolutley lost on this team, should have stayed where he was at
One thing still hasn’t changed with this team, they don’t stick up for each other. Nylander got ran into the boards in the other game, no one did a thing. Liljegren got seriously injured by a dirty player and no one did a thing. Adding just one tough guy makes no difference.Leafs played a good vs Boston. Smmy's best game of the season, too bad the Leafs lost in a crap shoot. I know it's been 10 games but Domi and Bertuzzi kind of suck.
