@Devon’s Burnt pancakes 100%, nearly every team in the show is captained by an elite Canadian, Boston, Chicago, Tampa, Dallas, st,. Louis, the list goes on. Oh and if it isn't Canadian, either Russian or Swedish before American.
The players are professionals, there is nothing they should have too learn. The Leafs do not have the heart to take it too the next level. Kyle is just making an sad reason as too why that lost to Montreal. Dubai should go.
Since we picked up Mathews and Marner we haven't missed the playoffs except for the broken up year due to covid. These guys are still young/cocky and will eventually get humbled by these 1st round losses. They really should mature after this year. Remember, it took Ovie 14years to win in Washington.
What do they make one do at an Alcoholics Anonymous? Until you are ready to ADMIT you have a problem,…… it’s Not going away! Hi my name is Kyle DumbA$$ & the Maple Laughs are my problem. I’m Kyle DumbA$$ & I had no plan except to copy what Tampa’s GM Julien Bresisbois did 1 year earlier. I am doomed to failure. I’m not a wonder boy.
When he gives half of the salary to 4 guys it becomes his fault. 3 of which have grossly under performed in the playoffs the last two years (one being Tavares, while it sounds awful, I dont think his point production would of changed much whether injured or not). Look at Teams still in the race, Teams doing well, none of them structure contracts like this. Leafs are so top heavy and the top crumbles in the playoffs, which means Leafs turn from a Great team in the regular season to a bottom 5 team in the playoffs because the Top Heavy guys getting paid the big money disappear. Marner has to go and Tavares' contract needs to be restructured. Anything other than these steps will lead to a the same outcome in future years.
He will and they will, but he won’t be fired. You know that. They’ll probably get Tampa in the first round next year. No point watching leafs hockey next year, or any year until Tampa & Boston’s rosters get old and broken up, and by then Matthews & Marner will be gone, so maybe watch again in about 4 years
@@mst3k54 I'm hoping that Bell and Rogers, especially Rogers, who owns the NHL broadcasting rights in Canada, will not be charitable to Dubas or Shanny if this failure keeps repeating. Rogers needs playoff ratings that other teams don't bring the way the Leafs can. Both Media giants want the playoff revenue to keep up profits. The Leafs aren't some" Let's Talk" charity to ownership.

The coaches, GMs, President can say whatever they want, but nothing is gonna change the fact that we blew a 3-1 lead.

please stop. People like you make me embarrassed to call myself a leafs fan. "Yay! Go leafs go! We can totally do it" FIVE straight years with this core and what do we have to show for it? 0 series wins, losing to our own zamboni driver, losing to the worst team in the league after being up 5-1, etc. 50+ years of not even making it to the finals, nearly 20 years of not winning a series, etc. Failure year after year, after year, after year, after year. Idiots like you are the reason it is never going to change. There's no reason for this team to ever get better when millions of morons will shell out money for them no matter what.
The first playoff game the other team almost killed the Toronto Maple Leaf Captain. It was not taken serious enough. The line the captain was in was a good strong line. This whole situation took away from the Toronto Maple Leafs team. I believe the Toronto Maple Leafs would have gone into the second round if they had, had their captain playing the whole time.
I believe it would’ve been a completely different series with Tavares playing. I thought John was dead on the ice. I don’t think it would’ve went to seven if we had our captain. He was needed in those big moments as well as taking some of the pressure off 34 & 16 to carry the team with scoring all the goals
you are an idiot. The leafs would have lost regardless of Tavares being there or not. They couldn't even beat Columbus in a best of 5 last year. Or did you forget that? This team can.not.win. when it matters. They don't know how to.
What are you talking about? The Leafs GOT depth scoring. It's their top unit that failed to produce as expected and this unfortunately happens sometimes.
@@philllllllll I'm not defending the top unit. They 5hat the bed (hence they're overpaid) but they were also matched up against a very good possession line in Danault. Keefe was stubborn in not splitting it up to get better matchups, and he should have NEVER sat Dermott for Sandin. Kerfoot and Spezza WERE productive but Mikhayev, Simmons, Thornton, Engvall, Foligno, Hyman, Nash, Brooks, etc. had 5 points. Galchenyuk had pretty much ONE good game. The Leafs could have kept Connor Brown and Kadri, had they not overpaid the top 4 and gone penny pinching afterwards.
I really think the team needs PK Subban. A big explosive D man with a huge shot. He'd bring the energy to Toronto and he'd play MUCHHHH better at home.
How many times was Marner knocked to the ice by an arm or someone blowing wind from their mouth. The time he is knocked down to the ice is wasted time that a bigger player could contribute to the offence.
I think all the fans chirping and turning on the Leafs, especially about Mitchy n' Mathews don't really know what they're looking at. Yes I feel those two were the biggest problem with this series but they still played hard and Mitch was still our best defensive forward. Mitch was trying to force the play instead of allowing the play to happen with the way he can handle the puck, skate and his vision. He wasn't as poised with the puck as he normally is, in other words, he was trying a little too hard and frustrated himself. Mathews problem, in my eyes, was the fact that he wasn't sticking up for himself in the scrums and wasn't really chirping back at them when they chirped at him. Allowing himself to get bullied and pushed around after the play probably got to him and frustrated him. The way he played was great, he just didn't get the bounces that his talent typically generates. They are both highly talented two way players that you don't just get rid of. Mitch needs to be more patient with the puck and Mathews needs to push back after the play, but neither of them made glaring mistakes. I luv Joey T but he made more misplays then our top two put together and same with Sandin. Another major factor in losing this series was the fact that we lost our captain in the devastating fashion we did after the first 10 minutes of the series. Then Foligno misses a couple games and the lines were getting juggled so much because of these injuries not to mention losing Muzzin after his big game getting us to overtime. A lot of B.S. injuries happened to our team in this series that were the factors to losing it, definitely not Mitch's or Mathews play. This is the game of puck, as a player and coach of the game, I know that my team can outplay the other team and still lose. It sux, I know, but we just have to learn from our experiences and move on. That's all we can do. GO LEAFS GO!!!
AFTER listening to Shanahan, Dubas and Keefe I have come to the conclusion that they are a major part of the problem. Fire these clowns and hire some EXPERIENCED NHL executives. Both Hunter or Lamoriello would have been far better hockey men.
Each of them had ZERO experience before being hired. (Shanahan hadn't managed anything at all!) They are learning on the job. It's totally naive to think they are the right guys. It will take them a decade to become seasoned NHL exec / GM / coach.
These big contracts for young 'superstars' should be lower but with a huge bonus for a cup win. If teams could somehow swing that, we would see incredibly competitive hockey. Hand a young player millions of dollars and you will see some comfortability without a doubt. Its human nature. More on the comfortable side than the drive side. Similar to back in the day when all those Leafs had the no trade clause. They might not even know it, but too comfortable vibe is there.
I heard all year about how great the leafs were from media and leafs fans. How they were different this time and built for the playoffs. I picked the jets to come out of this division before the season and I'm going to stick with them.

Its not just about finding "the pieces"...its about a specific mindset that players have to have. If all the new "pieces" can't find another gear come playoff time then maybe its all about mindset.
Actually you can summarize it in one word Dubas. CHOKE
These guys didn't asked any tough questions.
What? I saw a team that got SHUT DOWN by the Habs. They couldn't do anything. M&M couldn't even get a good shot off. Every year it's the same thing. Uhhhhh.....game 5, 6 and 7 were exactly the same. You were LUCKY to even get to overtime.
We need better Leaf Management. I have given up on the Laughs until the Leafs get rid of this management team and Mitch Marner.
I like myself too much to listen to this nonsense. Dubas hired a coach who still doesn't know what went wrong.
Exactly 🤣🤣🤣. Keefe was horrible no decision making
@@TruePersianPrince Totally agree. He's a disappointment. He took a team with a lot of talent and lost to a team 18 points below them, 3 games above 500, who lost 5 games in a row before the playoffs.

Wrong. Leafs would play up to the competition just enough to lose in 7, it is the way.
@@easternsaxon7820 Not really
Yeah damn, thoze US Teams wouldn't stand a chance without all those Canadians leading their teams. Nationalistic idiot
@Devon’s Burnt pancakes 100%, nearly every team in the show is captained by an elite Canadian, Boston, Chicago, Tampa, Dallas, st,. Louis, the list goes on. Oh and if it isn't Canadian, either Russian or Swedish before American.
The players are professionals, there is nothing they should have too learn. The Leafs do not have the heart to take it too the next level. Kyle is just making an sad reason as too why that lost to Montreal. Dubai should go.
he still does not want to admit he screwed up .You CANNOT build a team in the salary cap era like this .40 MIL on 4 players .when will he learn
Torts is available for hire! He's just what Toronto needs to put the final nail in the coffin.
Since we picked up Mathews and Marner we haven't missed the playoffs except for the broken up year due to covid. These guys are still young/cocky and will eventually get humbled by these 1st round losses. They really should mature after this year. Remember, it took Ovie 14years to win in Washington.
Kyle did a great job this season, not his fault
Yes it is. He is in charge.
What do they make one do at an Alcoholics Anonymous? Until you are ready to ADMIT you have a problem,…… it’s Not going away!
Hi my name is Kyle DumbA$$ & the Maple Laughs are my problem. I’m Kyle DumbA$$ & I had no plan except to copy what Tampa’s GM Julien Bresisbois did 1 year earlier. I am doomed to failure. I’m not a wonder boy.
When he gives half of the salary to 4 guys it becomes his fault. 3 of which have grossly under performed in the playoffs the last two years (one being Tavares, while it sounds awful, I dont think his point production would of changed much whether injured or not).
Look at Teams still in the race, Teams doing well, none of them structure contracts like this. Leafs are so top heavy and the top crumbles in the playoffs, which means Leafs turn from a Great team in the regular season to a bottom 5 team in the playoffs because the Top Heavy guys getting paid the big money disappear.
Marner has to go and Tavares' contract needs to be restructured. Anything other than these steps will lead to a the same outcome in future years.
@@adamc1803 …..Spot On Sir!

Dubas aged 10 years in 2 days.
If you trott out this same core next season Kyle, and they do this again, you should get canned.
He will and they will, but he won’t be fired. You know that. They’ll probably get Tampa in the first round next year. No point watching leafs hockey next year, or any year until Tampa & Boston’s rosters get old and broken up, and by then Matthews & Marner will be gone, so maybe watch again in about 4 years
@@mst3k54 I'm hoping that Bell and Rogers, especially Rogers, who owns the NHL broadcasting rights in Canada, will not be charitable to Dubas or Shanny if this failure keeps repeating. Rogers needs playoff ratings that other teams don't bring the way the Leafs can. Both Media giants want the playoff revenue to keep up profits.

Sports is a business, and like any other business you have goals and objectives to achieve and the simple rule is if those goals are not met objectives are not achieved then your ass to turn in your security pass and clear out your desk.

Time for a management change, turn in your security pass and we wish you all the best !
The REAL point is to make money. They’ll keep doing the same thing if you keep going to games, watching games, and buying merch
Yes it's a business, but by your rationale, every team in the NHL would be winning a trophy every year...if we start next year, it would take thirty-two years for each team to win. How does that fit in with your six-month model? Don't talk second-year, uni business crap, this is hockey.
@@geographyinaction7814 Well 32 years sounds a heck of a lot better than it is currently, it’s been 54 years ! Also I’m not even talking about winning a cup they can’t even manage to win a series or make an appearance in a final.

@@mst3k54 Agreed, but in Toronto people will never stop buying tickets no matter how expensive they are and will settle for an inferior product. It’s an addiction like alcohol or drugs
The coaches, GMs, President can say whatever they want, but nothing is gonna change the fact that we blew a 3-1 lead. Because of this embarrassing post season, Leafs fans are gonna expect the Leafs to lose round one again next year like every other year. It doesn’t matter what this team does next regular season. Even if they finish first, fans won’t get excited until they make it past the quarter finals.
Sound like someone trying to save their job
He always says the right things. Talk is cheap.
Harry Potter of the Leafs sucks... he's built the team in the image of himself... gutless with a lack of a killer instinct. Brendan Shanahan should be ashamed of himself for bringing him in.
He did good. You cant say he didn’t give that team what leaf fans have been asking for, going into playoffs everyone thought they were going to finally get past the first round, the big 2 just got shutout.. he’s going to be a busy man this off season!
1st seed losing to 4th seed is good? Lol
Last time I checked he can’t play for them ding a ling ling
Remember when everybody laughed at Ovi for not being able to do it. No one is laughing at Ovi now. Now we debate if he is greatest goal scorer of all time. Go Leafs Go!

toronto maple laughs
I fee like this guy should be working Scotiabank not managing a hockey team. Did he ever play or coach??
2021 It's who you know. Didn't you here.
The first playoff game the other team almost killed the Toronto Maple Leaf Captain. It was not taken serious enough. The line the captain was in was a good strong line.
This whole situation took away from the Toronto Maple Leafs team. I believe the Toronto Maple Leafs would have gone into the second round if they had, had their captain playing the whole time.
I believe it would’ve been a completely different series with Tavares playing. I thought John was dead on the ice. I don’t think it would’ve went to seven if we had our captain. He was needed in those big moments as well as taking some of the pressure off 34 & 16 to carry the team with scoring all the goals
you are an idiot. The leafs would have lost regardless of Tavares being there or not. They couldn't even beat Columbus in a best of 5 last year. Or did you forget that? This team can.not.win. when it matters. They don't know how to.
No scoring depth caused by Dubas overpaying for his forwards. That's why you lost Dubas....
17 different Leafs scored a point, the Habs only had 14
What are you talking about? The Leafs GOT depth scoring. It's their top unit that failed to produce as expected and this unfortunately happens sometimes.
@@philllllllll I'm not defending the top unit. They 5hat the bed (hence they're overpaid) but they were also matched up against a very good possession line in Danault. Keefe was stubborn in not splitting it up to get better matchups, and he should have NEVER sat Dermott for Sandin. Kerfoot and Spezza WERE productive but Mikhayev, Simmons, Thornton, Engvall, Foligno, Hyman, Nash, Brooks, etc. had 5 points. Galchenyuk had pretty much ONE good game. The Leafs could have kept Connor Brown and Kadri, had they not overpaid the top 4 and gone penny pinching afterwards.
I really think the team needs PK Subban. A big explosive D man with a huge shot. He'd bring the energy to Toronto and he'd play MUCHHHH better at home.
Last thing they need is a self involved over rated locker room cancer
Jason must return. He has that passion to win. Land he has earned another year for his full season of heart and passion to winning
How many times was Marner knocked to the ice by an arm or someone blowing wind from their mouth. The time he is knocked down to the ice is wasted time that a bigger player could contribute to the offence.
I think all the fans chirping and turning on the Leafs, especially about Mitchy n' Mathews don't really know what they're looking at. Yes I feel those two were the biggest problem with this series but they still played hard and Mitch was still our best defensive forward. Mitch was trying to force the play instead of allowing the play to happen with the way he can handle the puck, skate and his vision. He wasn't as poised with the puck as he normally is, in other words, he was trying a little too hard and frustrated himself. Mathews problem, in my eyes, was the fact that he wasn't sticking up for himself in the scrums and wasn't really chirping back at them when they chirped at him. Allowing himself to get bullied and pushed around after the play probably got to him and frustrated him. The way he played was great, he just didn't get the bounces that his talent typically generates. They are both highly talented two way players that you don't just get rid of. Mitch needs to be more patient with the puck and Mathews needs to push back after the play, but neither of them made glaring mistakes. I luv Joey T but he made more misplays then our top two put together and same with Sandin. Another major factor in losing this series was the fact that we lost our captain in the devastating fashion we did after the first 10 minutes of the series. Then Foligno misses a couple games and the lines were getting juggled so much because of these injuries not to mention losing Muzzin after his big game getting us to overtime. A lot of B.S. injuries happened to our team in this series that were the factors to losing it, definitely not Mitch's or Mathews play. This is the game of puck, as a player and coach of the game, I know that my team can outplay the other team and still lose. It sux, I know, but we just have to learn from our experiences and move on. That's all we can do. GO LEAFS GO!!!
the pressure of playing in Toronto is immense, it's hockeytown, you screw up and everyone will know.
Again these guys kill me you can’t develop heart or teach it players either have it or they don’t doesn’t matter how you train them
Marner and Matthews are closer to Gaudreau and Monahan than they are to Kane and Toews.
Here's comes a bunch of wordy answers with no results to show for them
Can someone please show me the Matthews meme from his antics in game one!
You know the one with the cheesy smile and condescending demeanour!
Has DUBAS been fired yet; and if not, why not? This guy is hopeless.
Remember too next year they go back to a tougher division including Boston and Tampa!
Anything to bypass Columbus and the almost-500-regular-season Habs.
They’ll make playoffs but lose in first round unless something changes
AFTER listening to Shanahan, Dubas and Keefe I have come to the conclusion that they are a major part of the problem. Fire these clowns and hire some EXPERIENCED NHL executives. Both Hunter or Lamoriello would have been far better hockey men.
Each of them had ZERO experience before being hired. (Shanahan hadn't managed anything at all!) They are learning on the job. It's totally naive to think they are the right guys. It will take them a decade to become seasoned NHL exec / GM / coach.
It took you this long to realize that they’re part of the problem ?
Lou is too busy winning on Long Island to bother with the Leafs.
If Hunter was so good how come no other nhl team hired him
Fire the ENTRIE FRONT OFFICE!! Inculding interns!! Gut it!! Gut it!! Gut it!!
These big contracts for young 'superstars' should be lower but with a huge bonus for a cup win. If teams could somehow swing that, we would see incredibly competitive hockey. Hand a young player millions of dollars and you will see some comfortability without a doubt. Its human nature. More on the comfortable side than the drive side. Similar to back in the day when all those Leafs had the no trade clause. They might not even know it, but too comfortable vibe is there.
I heard all year about how great the leafs were from media and leafs fans. How they were different this time and built for the playoffs. I picked the jets to come out of this division before the season and I'm going to stick with them.
The problem with the leafs is that they're mentally soft.
Also, the guys they brought in haven't won anything. Thornton. Simmonds. Spezza. Nothing.
They really should get rid of Reilly to start, then Simmonds. Spezza, and Thornton should retire!
Also Shanahan, Dubas, and Keefe are novices learning on the job during their first NHL opportunities. This is a problem that won't be fixed easily.
