Leafs will lose the 1st round again
It will be Vegas ,LA or Boston to win the 2024 Stanley cup.
Vancouver is the best Canadian team , Quinn Hughes one of the best defenseman in the NHL right now Brock Boeser having a career year
I only support the 31 other NHL teams

Down 0-5 in the third, they tie it but lose in OT. Decimated with injuries and a flu bug going through the team, Leafs continue to find ways to get points.

I just watched on PVR. As soon as I saw Max Dummie not make the change in overtime, I knew that were going to lose. That one is all on him.

Jason Chen the author said he's nowhere near Toronto or from Ontario as he ranked the Leafs 3rd.

As soon it was 5-0 I was about to turn off the TV, but Simpson said Blue Jackets allow the most goals in the third period, so I stuck around and Nylander and Marner scored, and I said cue the comeback.

If Martin Jones has a good game on Saturday night against the Penguins, I think Samsonov has to be considered number 3. He looks too shaky, and one step behind the play. The Leafs have a goaltending coach, but whatever he is doing with Samsonov isn't working.

A guy named Domi leads the Leafs in penalty minutes. What year is this?

Jones is a terrible goalie I don't see that happening. And I will probably throw down a few bucks on the Pens moneyline Saturday night.
I didn't see last nights game but that was an impressive 3rd period comeback to at least salvage a point. Still losing to the Blue Jackets on home ice is pretty shameful.

They lost to Ottawa
They lost to Buffalo
They lost to Chicago ... twice
It's what the Leafs do.
Have been for years
That's 3 of their 6 regulation losses
Could have been 4 if not for the comeback vs Columbus.
They coast through the bad teams and get up for the good ones.
No surprises there.
Samsonov with his .878 SV% certainly doesn't help.
His record 5 wins and 6 losses. 5 of them in OT

This team is also notorious for slow starts and leads the league in comebacks.

Leafs are 1-4 against the bottom 5 teams.
I think someone mentioned this is the first time in the NHL that a team won a game after giving up a 5 goal lead in the 3rd period.

That one win you're referring to was on Dec 7 vs Ottawa.
Leafs won 4 to 3 but the shots on goal was Ottawa 41 and Toronto 22.
That's double the shots Ottawa had over Leafs.
Woll was outstanding. He stopped 29 of 31 shots before getting injured. That's a .935 SV%
Jones came in and stopped 9 of 10 and got the win even though it should have gone to Woll who left the game when Leafs were ahead.
Forsberg let in 4 goals on 22 shots for a .818 SV%

Leafs are one of the top teams in the NHL and some of you clowns still complain how they do it...when it comes to winning games they don't ask How they ask How Many.

 

[bullitt]

That hit by McCabe may be the hit of the year and totally clean. Shoulder to chest.

For sure Zab...jad deserved an extra two for instigating.

solid hit. the trouba kid on rangers plays the game the way it should be played also; aside from when he clubbed frederic upside the head. still cant believe there was no suspension on that one .

Watch Samsonov get a shutout, it's the Leafy thing to do.

Interesting stat Leafs lead the Eastern Conference in hits.
Followed by TB, NYI, Oilers, Florida, Montreal, Boston in that order

Does Reaves taking out the boards with his knee count?

 

[superstar_88]

Don't know who the hockey commentator was but late in the 3rd period he was praising Samsonov in spite of his .878 SV%
Says he has a 5-1-1 record when in fact his record is 5-1-5. That's 5 wins 6 losses with 5 of those losses in OT.
Perhaps if he made more saves in regulation those 5 OT losses could have been regulation wins.
All other Leafs goalies combined have only 1 OT loss.
