Sammy though has been making saves the main problems be rn

1. Playing undisciplined

2. Offensive zone penalties

3. Special teams

Going in we knew BOS PP owned TOR so okay stay out of the box

Matthews line 3 offensive zone penalties and the +1 Domi stupid penalty

When your spending 8mins killing penalties wtf u thinks gonna happen against a team whose ****ing owned yah special teams wise

Do I have concern for the goaltending yes but is he the main reason they down 4-0 no


Is Sammy the reason? Not entirely, but the difference in goaltending is the most impactful reason this game

Not really its a factor but Leafs playing undisciplined and not creating any dangerous chances be the bigger reason

Shooting lots of low danger shots on Swayman outshooting BOS in the process will not lead to much. Start generating Grade A chances

Look at BOS scoring chances and how they happened

Only dangerous shot this game = Matthews breakaway empty net post

I’d argue at minimum the Matthews kick to stick to shot was a pretty dangerous shot

It really wasnt. His only dangerous shot of his 9 was the one on the empty net that hit the post

Are you referring to this one? Where the Bruin (Jakub Lauko) is in full possession of the puck while McCabe gets called for interference.

Embarrassing effort…

The only positive was the Bert-Matthews-Domi line

And all the momentum kills

And all the easy giveaways

Did Marner take the offensive zone penalties that lead to those goals no

Momentum died the moment Matthews, Bertuzzi, and Domi decided to be stupid with their sticks

THEY WERE THE ONLY FING LINE THAT PRODCUED ACTUAL OFFENCE…

Ignore what you perceive… Both OZone penalties were them battling… Something the rest of the team could learn

Lul no they didnt but you cant tell yourself that

4th line was the only one to actually generate anything behind Swayman and this was with Reaves on it

All we saw from Matthews is missing on an Empty net

Or how about keep your sticks on the ice and not in the air or let Marchand make you mad to draw a penalty lul

Each of them were not good

Like look at each penalty taken 4 came from the Matthews line 2 were score on

Undisciplined and not good

Domi better smarten up or he may not be on Matthews line for long

He led both sides in shots… Like what are you watching 🤭

If they actually had another line that they could build off of… It wouldn’t have been 5-1

Hockey is a very random sport, so anything can happen, but boy do I have no faith in this team for the playoffs.

Special teams are ass, D-core is brutal, defensive support from forwards is questionable, goaltending looking shaky


Yup, Yup, Yup, Yup

Each of them were net front battles


Something Marner would never dream of doing

Matthews was not net front battling go look at it again. Guy just skates by with his stick up like an idiot

One of the worst offensive zone penalties I have seen

Keep your stick down lul

Domi was being stupid on both of his and Bertuzzi apply same to Matthews

8 penalty minutes between the 3 of them not good
