JT got into it more than Reaves did, so your logic is brutal for the rest

I mean you would hope so because one plays 5-10 minutes a night and the other plays 20

I'd say he was in the most amount of scrums on the leafs...

I'd call that captain material charging into the playoffs

0G, 0A, 0P for the "captain" when the going gets tough against hard, physical, playoff teams. Looks like it's April

Look on the bright side - with the win, Florida leapfrogged Boston in the standings, meaning you won't have to face the Panthers in the first round!

I think most Leafs fans would rather play Florida than Boston...

Too much trauma...

1959 was the last time Toronto beat Boston in a playoff series

What we learned about Leafs fans (well we knew already but this post reinforces it) - they’re dramatic and emotional for no reason.

They had one bad period against Florida. I guess you’re forgetting the first period where Toronto dominated and the third was even. Or even the prior game where Toronto throttled Florida for 2 periods (& even won the game!). Relax. 1 game or even 1 period doesn’t define a team.

I also find it absolutely comical how you blame Keefe for not using Martin Jones just because he went on 2 playoff runs but then $hit on Joe Woll… Jones is washed. Woll is the best goalie in the organization. He’s young and learning, don’t be so hard on a guy and give him time to develop. Hell he’s still coming back from a major injury and you’re harping on him.

Jones has been bad for 6 years. And the last “run” he went on in the playoffs he had a .898sv% … you really wanna trust that and try to win a cup?!

Geez posts like this make it hard to be a Leaf fan.

After the 2nd period last night, there shouldn't be ANY Leafs fan that wants to play Florida. That was embarrassing.

The Leafs stopped trying to play hockey...

The Sharks would have scored all those goals... There were 4 and 5 players coasting back on the backcheck... It was bad

The only reason why it wasn't 7/8 goals was bc Woll was a unit

JT was getting roughed up by Tkachuk and Montour and Benoit comes to cover his back, a scrum breaks out. Than you see off to the side JT fixing his helmet well his team is out numbered in the scrum. JT is the perfect example of the worst captain in the league. JT= no emotion, no backing teammates. Is this a guy that you follow into the playoff battle, the answer is no.

Is McCabe soft then? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wGiLuVUZwUU

The inconsistencies are spectacular...

No it means that Dubas brought in the wrong player to the organization in John Tavares

Couldn't agree more, I have never been more embarrassed than seeing the captain not having any balls to set the tone. Softest captain in the league

Because Matthews was the one to be nominated for the King Clancy and not JT?

Is that your next reasoning?
