- The Leafs fell short in a critical playoff game Saturday night against the Bruins, and now face possible elimination in Game 5. TSN's Leafs panel discuss the frustration Toronto showed in the game, how Brad Marchand and David Pastrnak continue to show up when it matters for the Bruins, and more.

JAKE DEBRUSK has scored the same amount of goals as the entire Core Four.
Bam Son
Jake Debrusk is a good player and he didn’t even do anything why he catching strays 🤣
@@user-io8sz7tf9tjake debrusk doesn’t make 44 million dollars a year…
@@user-sn8sw2vi8z😂😂😂
@@user-io8sz7tf9tI don’t think he caught a stray in this comment, now in the video I don’t know yet only a minute in, but he’s complimenting DeBrusk, he has the same amount of points as an entire core players worth 40+mil 😂😂😂😂
If I were TSN what I would do is record all of these guys talking about the Leafs choking and then just replay it every year when it actually happens. save money.
After 6 years together, their immaturity and mental weakness shows time and time again.
As time goes on it's actually getting worse.
How soon before the owners wake up and clean house.
They really need to break that core up. They can rebuild and even get a HAUL of first round picks for that core 4 if they trade them
8 get it right
Nailed it
😂Bertuzzi’s on the bench like “So glad I’m a free agent and I can get away from this dumpster fire!”.
But who’s going to want him ? It showed last year in Boston it was a waste of time & money to rent him , now in Toronto waste this year
@@alberthamel6039he might look good in a Canucks sweater. Put him on Petterson’s line.
GOOD. It feels like hes throwing games anyway.... I feel like hes gambling behind the scenes. Hes immature. Both him and Domi cant stay out of the box and cost us goals
Bertuzzi is a 30 goal scorer if given PP1 minutes. But he has no shot and he can't skate. He's a very confusing player to watch.
@@Spike10111 Valid comment - he's a bit of a loose cannon. When he wouldn't vaccinate it took him out of all his team's game's in Canada. Selfish.
I've seen coaches get fired for way less than what keefe has been able to do during his time with the leafs 😂😂😂
Agreed! I thought he should have been fired by now. I can’t understand what evidence there is that some people think it’s not his fault. Unbelievable incompetence.
How did they actually re-sign this guy? Rewarded him for what exactly? Doing the Amazon Prime Video? That was hilarious - should have been billed as a comedy.
Treliving kept him this year only because it was his first year and he was getting acquainted with the organization. O'Keefe will be gone this year. Shanahan is a travesty and should have advised this a year ago when Paul Maurice ate O'Keefe for lunch. That organization must be incredibly toxic as they showed with the Dubas debacle.
Stupidity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result! That's the Leafs approach to contracting coaches.
This team is a case study. Seriously. The field of psychology will benefit from this phenomenon.
Hyman and Kadri playing pretty good out here. That’s two players Leafs could use.
Hyman had no finish at all as a Leaf. He was fed by M & M often and couldn't score. Kadri got suspended in the playoffs twice for Toronto so how is that helping?
being a Leaf was only dragging them down
Toronto has a history or ruining young players. Best thing for Kadri was to leave... and its shown. Hyman has a lot of success from McDavid.
Dakota Joshua and Sam Lafferty too
carter verhaeghe was a leafs draft pick as well so was mason marchment
“They’ve got some fight left in them.” No, I don’t believe they do.
I don't think Marner should get a new contract given what he's gonna be asking for. Move on from him and Tavares, that money would go a long way to making the team better.
You can't move any of these guys. They all have NMC in contracts. They are STUCK.
Don’t forget trade Morgan Reilly as well.
@cowetascore8476 the realization for some has yet to sink in: this collapse of a rebuild just cost the fans another decade of early exits.😢
O'Dog looking THIN!!!!! Good for you Sir!!!
ODog is also a leaf Homer!
I liked that Willy was angry. He should be and it shows that he cares. He was talking to the media the other day about how much he hated to sit and watch these past games. He really seems like he wants to do well and for his first game back, I think he was pretty good. Matthews is sick - ok. What about every other player in blue? What's their excuse?
Your buddy Willy is a flake... he needs to gtfo or start playing physical hockey. Hes a fkg floater.
If I'm Brad Treliving, EVERYONE on that team, yes including Matthews, is up for grabs this summer. Blow that whole thing up, because 1 series win in 8 years is just not working.
I feel sorry for people who sit thru Leafs games on TV and all those idiotic commercials.
Worse, those who pay THOUSANDS to go in person!
I feel sorry for all the fans at Scoatiabank arena that put out hard earned money to sit through that .I guess they still believe in this group.I gave up on this group when they blew the 3-1 series lead against Montreal 3 years ago
It’s been decades without competent defencemen. You built this team akin to one that already won a cup and had to trade its heart away to sign its star players. Why did you pay those four kids all that money and expect a championship to come your way?
Ownership and management are never held accountable
I miss the days of KABERLE to McCabe back to Kaberle and the big shot into the net (or vice versa as they both had a booming shot). Our D is horrible and they dont shoot
@@turbokid99 bro kaberle was a stalwart... but he literally shot the puck twice in his career
Other than Salming, name a franchise defender for the Leafs. It's hard.
@@cowetascore8476well they had good defensemen. But you guys booed them out of town. Murphy. Schneider. Bob rouse.
You can't coach heart. Matthews was disappointed that he didn't get that 70th, and didn't seem too excited about the upcoming playoffs. He doesn't get paid for playoff games, and it shows. love him or hate him, Marchand makes almost HALF the money of at least 4 leaf players and plays with everything he's got every night.
Exactly. Regular season records will bring him more money then a cup would anyways. He's already got the bank why bust your body. Rich kids don't really want it
He only plays for himself .. not for the team.
Explain the last 5yrs
That's absurd, Matthews played very well until he got hit with the flu.
In my opinion, you can definitely coach heart. It's called inspiring leaders in the locker room. That's why those players are so affective and important in the playoffs. Nevermind the coach making excuses and saying after the game that the effort was there. How can you even begin to coach heart when you tell them they are doing enough??? It also doesn't help that none of the leafs could even dream of being a better leader than marchand. They are just not built for playoffs
Where is John Tavares in all of this? He’s an invisible captain with no leadership and everyone is silent.
Tavares a complete sando.
He had more playoff moments on Long Island and they only made the playoffs a couple of times when he was there. 2 OT goals.
@@cowetascore8476 Long Island JT was THE man. He willed that team to whatever it accomplished. He's older, married with children now, and most importantly, isn't the real captain. How do you stand up and even take yourself seriously when everyone is looking towards Matthews? The reality is that JT is the "Aw shucks," safe for big money marketing stand-in Captain for the team.
I think everyone accepts he's old and slow now
@@buckshot9521you can be old and slow and still be an effective captain. Bergeron? Jamie Benn? Jordan Staal? He has zero battle or heart.
Where did Matthews run off too? Bergeron and Chara both played playoff games half dead before.
Diaper change 😂
dude that's how those usa hockey guys are they are disabled
much better audio! Thank you!
worst playoff game I've ever seen. by far
Well the NYI-Carolina game where NYI only had 12 shots for most of the game was odd. But I guess it was interesting.
Not a bruins or leafs fan, but I've been watching the games what confuses me is why people think the leafs should be the better team? The bruins seem overall way more balanced and structurally sound.
Because on paper its not even close, the Leafs have waaay more talent, except in goal. I hate the leafs nut they are way more skilled. But your final statement is huge
The Leafs have huge weaknesses that the Bruins exploit. The Leafs suck. The supposed skill The Leafs have doesn't mean nothing when they can't perform in the playoffs.
It's not that people think they should be the better team, it's that they expected an even better effort than the best games they played during the regular season and if you've watched those games you know they could've done much better.
@@James-nv1wf ohh I see I see
@@alexmac6825 Bruins have by far the better blueline and goalies..better captain by far..better grinders by far..so by on paper you must mean the Matthews factor because thats about it
So are we finally admitting that it's Matthews and Marner that are the problem?
Part of the problem. Lots of blame to go around.
It’s hard to make anything happen on offence when you have a goalie that lets a beach ball get past him lol
The problem isn't matthews, he was playing his ass off this series, checking, back checking getting chances. Marner on the other hand
@@andrewdockrill Agreed. Keep Matthews, Willy, McMann, and Benoit. Get rid of everything else including Keefe and Shanahan and start again with the guys they just gave contracts to.
@@_Nywoe I agree on Matthews trying... I am still baffled that they kept Keefe after Dubas firing... but Leafs fans will see maybe some major changes in the offseason, if good or bad time will tell, but Treliving will have to mix things up massively (except the Leafs turn around the Series in a miracle)
And just like the last five years - you will never hear the coach criticized, you will never hear management criticized - and maybe most of all - you will never hear owneship criticized on TSN
Real hockey fans aren't surprised. 😂😂 it's been clear for years the leafs are built for regular season Matthew's
It used to be common knowledge, good teams serious about going far in the playoffs, did not overwork during the season. Leafs never understood it.
all an opponent has to do is sneer at Marner,Matthews and Tavares and they piss themselves...lol
True we are all immune to it now .
The #78 pylon poke checking in a playoff game
This Roster was never going to go on a deep cup run. The defence and goaltending hasn't been and is not cup run worthy. Regular season team every single year.
G and D are more like AHL worthy.
the difference between marchand as captain and tavares is frightening tavares is the worst captain in nhl history
him and p the pillion were the worst. Problem with Tavares is that he is not a leader. He is quiet and is clearly over the hill. We need a captain that is going to lead charges and be vocal. We have neither of that and we needed it tonight. Of all nights.
They made an autist captain kind of funny tbh
@@djpause Not the Leader is right. He can set a good example for work ethic, but these guys are all older now for better or for worse. This group needs someone with fire, and JT is just too calm. That was Sundin's only fault when he was here. As they are, Matthews during the regular season was looking like the guy, and after Game 2 of this series it looked like he was really, finally, THE guy. But now he's sick? So he gets a pass for Games 3 and 4? I hate that. But realistically everything revolves around him on the team, like it or not, so may as well give him the "C" if he wants it. Or at least if he doesn't want it, give it to Reilly who has been there forever and answers all the media questions like he is anyway. JT was really good on Long Island, willing those Islander teams to the playoffs. Unfortunately, the Leafs got the old man JT after marriage and children. After JT's contract expires after next year, he can stay if he takes a significant discount. He is still good as a role player, but clearly not the go to guy anymore.
You kids dont know Tavares and leadership. stfu please, thanks.
Marchand always comes up clutch against the Leafs. Compare that with those big 4 players for Toronto, who are on a combined salary (not cap hit) of approx. $32 million... and this is the effort they put in. Pathetic.
yup, the culture in Boston is the real deal..their dressing room must say to each other 'we cannot lose to that culture in that toxic dressing room' every time they play them
Isn’t it more than that? $40 million plus? I totally agree. Embarrassing
Meanwhile Kessel and Kadri over the last 10 yrs who were deemed the problem in Toronto leave to win 4 Stanley cups combined.

Don't ever refer to the Leafs as "Canada's team" after that disgrace of a game, that would be an insult to the entire country to be sure.
Canada sucks anyway might as well join USA as a country
That makes me not want to be Canadian anymore 😂
They never were Canada’s team. I hate that term anyway, it’s non-sensical
That’s abuse
@@evanobrien7316 Its actually very sensical if you actually think....theyre the 1/2 only Canadian original 6. Only other is MTL which is quebec and most ppl in canada hatw Quebec. No other team in Canada let alone the leauge makes up half the opponents fans in some games. Find clips of another team being away having a go away team chant in the building
They didn’t finish a check all night…playoff teams are a strong checking and scoring team…
To suggest these guys don't care or aren't trying seems ridiculous.
They lost to Boston 7 times in the regular season... did anybody think anything was going to change really?
Boston matches up really well against Toronto and definitely outplayed them.
They had a great year and obviously need some key pieces but I still love the team.
Commentator said it right, leaf falls down or gets hit, looks at ref for penalty, bruin gets hit, gets up and scores, thats the difference
they should hire MARC BERGEVIN, he will put together a playoff team for them...(habs fan)
Nice to see Jeff O'Neil actually paying attention and not playing with his cellular phone!
The Leafs are an elite ringette team
Do we really need to censor lips without sound now?
The Leaf GM screwed up big time by not upgrading the Leaf Core 4 over past year - by minimizing Core 4 upgrades. This Leaf Core 4 is only good in the regular season. They are famous for Leaf Core 4 (common denominator) playoff disappointments.
they will have lots of time to ponder inthe next couple days mostly there golf game⛳
It's not the Leafs... it's Toronto!
come on, the Blue Jays are ...., well maybe not. The Raptors are ...., o.k. not them either. TFC are so ..... O.k. not them either. Argos!!! Rock!!! Marlies .....?? O.k. it's Toronto.
There is dissension in the room , the coach has no emotion. Willy stayed out and now Matthews has quit
no goalie = no cup
no defense = no cup
No goalie AND no defense = no chance in playoffs
Couldn't have been worse than the game 7 from the Montreal series a couple of years ago
Was it 6 years ago a Coach tried to out a so called super star for acting like a child. The clubs response when the mother said the coach made her boy cry was to fire that coach? Just when he wanted to help some of his players to grow up. Now, say what you will, they were bickering on the bench, bitching at each other. Maybe Marner will give the coach a list of names that he thinks are not doing the right stuff out there. Heaven forbid Keefe calls anybody out, he will have to retract his harsh words. What ever happened to "what you hear here and see here stays here?"
the guy figure skates in practice and warm ups FFS...10 ply
Teams that stick with a superstar that can’t elevate to the next level in the playoffs never win the cup.
Keefe saying "you can't question their effort tonight" says it all. Pathetic
Matthews helped them to fill the seats for every game during the regular season. MLSE considers that equal to winning a Stanley Cup.
Matthews quit, Nylander quit, and Marner quiet quit.
Похоже эта тройка забила х на все
All overpaid and overrated. Regular season powerhouse that’s all.
40 million dollar line quit
@@alberthamel6039 for the last 4-5 years....$200 million and they can't be asked to break a sweat....
Matthew's and Marner did not quite... Nylander is on the wrong side of winning. He dropped the ball the minute he got paid ;)
It only takes 1 to spoil the rest. Remember that!
That's the funny and odd thing about the Leafs... It's the predictability. I wanted to watch the game but honestly after 2 or 3 minutes of the first period I went to bed because I just knew... I mean I just knew.
Montgomery is out-coaching Keefe is an understatement.
You can’t have 4 guys making 11+ mill. Mayb 1 or 2 but jeez I really question the leafs management hockey sense. They have none. Anybody could likely coach and build a team better than what is on the ice now
When Montreal last got to finals they most paid line got 10 mil and least paid line 6 mil.
Nylander basically said "Quit F-ing crying bro, this isn't the F-ing juniors"... or in fan terms "This ain't the regular season, man up !" ... and he's right !
Let’s bring back Toronto Toros!!!
It's so hard to watch this team. Year after year playoff after playoff. They go into the playoffs with a top 5 power play and top 5 offense every year but once the puck drops in the spring all that elite offense disappears. All 4 of these guy ( Matthew's, Marner , Taveres, Nylander ) are not leaders and have been asked to step up for an entire team and franchise for that matter. Taveres is a great player in his prime but it was the same story when he was in NY and that is he's to quite , soft and non confrontational to be a great C in this league. Anytime there's a scrum after the whitsle Taveres and the rest of the core try to become the UN. They try to be the separation police and want nothing to do with sticking up for there teammates. Look at guys like both Tkachuk brothers , Toews for years, Stamkos when warranted they are willing to jump an opponent or drop there stick in a scrum.
Shanahan gone
Keefe gone
Sign and trade Marner
Strip taveres of the C
Lol! They blurred Nylander's mouth chirping Marner.
I said it since the start of the season!!! They are Charmin in the playoffs!
This was zero surprise to me. They have zero killer instinct... never had and never will have. They can cash checks though!
As an Ottawa fan it gives me a tremendous amount of pressure how horrible the team was yesterday. Ottawa is a crappy team but the leaves are a hot mess
The leaves? WOW you’re a moron!
The core four will be no more after this first round exit. Keith Pelley will start with Shanahan. Time to clean house.
Exactly. H was brought in to do exactly that if there was a 1st round exit or bad 2nd round exit. Shanny is toast for sure
nope...Coach gone,,,, core four get raises, and ever more pampering. Maybe personal masseuses, a guy to take Mitchey's dog to therapy, a free tax attorney for Tavares, and heaven forbid no challenging words or questions from the media,,,,,those mean media people with those scary words......
The media for every team is complete shit my guy.. especially in Toronto and Vancouver. Hell all Canadian markets amp it up with retarded rhetorical and derogatory questions shitting on peoples want to give a flying fuck and play in that city anymore lol they literally do nothing but antagonize the players lmao what a joke
Auston can score all those goals during the regular season but can’t when it really matters 😂
it's a man's game in the playoffs....players play mean.
He's never scored a playoff goal after round #1. Never. And he is not the best Leaf ever, trust me. The best goal scorer, yes - the best player, not even close. Give me Wendel, Sundin, Salming, MacDonald, Sittler any day of the week come playoff time.
In Game 2 he was actually, finally, really good. I give him that. But Marchand does it more often than not...
It's gross the Toronto media constantly tries to compare Matthews to 97 or 29. He's nowhere the same calibre of player. Not even close. Draisaitl and McDavid are build from a different cloth
When you said 29 I thought you meant Mackinnon… either way your point stands.
How many cups they got
@@tonyscrocco4495 Who cares, they actually show up and play hard even when hurt.
@@tonyscrocco4495 They've won 6 playoff series, and were in the semis last year. TF have the Leafs done? Absolute garbage.
@@tonyscrocco4495 you can tell that Oilers team will break through soon and that this Leafs team is designed to never break through..but thats the end result of a team constructed by Dubas to begin with and now the Leafs went and got another useless GM that is totally dumb also with the cash like Dubas was lol..thank god for Shanahan still being there 😊
Terrible trades from yesteryears is the core of the problem for the Leafs. Kyle Dubas brought more harm to the Leafs than can be imagined. Look at all the failed trades. Domi and Bertuzzi are good additions-they have heart and play tough hockey. Reeves was a mistake. So the current GM is at least moving in the right direction. Let's hope the Leafs dig deep and overcome all the angst that the press is piling on them. Believe!!
All I see on the highlights is Domi slinking out of the penalty box when B's score, time after time. A liability that made the NHL due to his father.
Can anyone tell me why was Samsonov outside his crease on the second goal.. Was he expecting a breakaway down the centre?
This same TSN panel starts talking about how the Maple Leafs are going to go on a cup run in mid Summer. And it's once again another first round playoff exit.
The core 4 don’t care if they won or lose they got payed and it shows
Gee, I'm shocked that four $11 million forwards and zero defense and goaltending didn't work. Utterly SHOCKED. I mean, all those Cups won over history using this formula...
Nyland coming off injuries? I thought he had a headache. My gf goes to work with migraines and isn't backed up by the best medical science has to offer. She suffers through it.
Then she has headaches. Migraines are impossible to work through. They bring grown men to tears.
The Habs finished their meaningless regular season games with more passion than the Leafs could muster in their playoff showdown.
GO BRUINS 🖤💛
Youth at its finest Now is the time to take advantage of this situation that can only make them overcome this tiny obstacle.
It doesnt make sense to pay them so much and then fall short B/C of such behavior? Go Leafs GO
Fire keefe fire shanahan . Exactly be more focused, more motivated
more team play without puck coverage in defense zone? transition to sharp offense passing to produce scoring chances for quick shots at goal?
Brutal Brodie...
Woll comes in. Ignites the comeback. Leafs win three straight. Could happen. All these comments would be in a plaque in my basement. I still have hope. Leafs in 9
Your a idiot.. this series was over in october
Leafs in 9! 😂
Leafs in 2054
But hey Nylander got paid and Austin scored 69 goals! good season boys!
Marner is coming off a severe ankle sprain, Nylander had back issues and migraines and Matthews is sick. No surprise whats going on
For the love of god eliminate us please Boston, this needs to stop.
LOL..... I love it!
THIS TEAM IS ALWAYS LIFELESS,
NO HEART, NO GRIT,NO PP NO PK NO GOALTENDING
NO COACH!!! ALWAYS OUT COACHED !!! LIFELESS LEAFS ALWAYS!!!
This is a mngmt problem. Marner Matthews Tavares and Reilly are the only ones who get it done in both ends of the ice. Dubas built a small team, firing a future hall of fame coach. Mngmt team of rookies blew an era of talent unlike anything in the last 4 decades.
That performance would have been shocking if we hadn't seen it so many times before.
SHANA PLAN ON FULL DISPLAY
The Curse Of Haysey B Continues!!!
Zach HYman - 6 goals. Leafs team - 7 goals.
Love every second of this. Tsn and sportsnet are going to have to spin this hard to please their bosses at rogers. Haha
Do you remove one piece from big5 or two. We all have known for years that the big5 is not a cup5. Management has sat on its hands and hoped things would evolve. They havent. Do you dump two guys or one?
Matthews pulled a Patrick Roy
Where the hell is Shanahan? Send an arrest warrant for Dubas. Utter embarrassment!!!!!!!!
My cat has more discipline. He would not be stick handling the puck at the blue line to go past some one.
Rather than blurring out Nylander's lips, they should have blurred out some of the play..
The most depressing part for me, is that if we are all being realistic there is no short term answer to our problem. Nobody is going to trade us a top d-man, nobody wants any of these contracts, they guys all have no movement clauses, and we don’t have any big time goalies or d-men on the farm. They have to make a commitment to drafting and developing again and hope the next round of young guys make a difference…..
Honestly, I would blow it all up and rebuild. There is a serious lack of leadership, character, and compete in this team.
Yeah, glad the well rested Nylander can tell them to stop crying 🤣
things you love to see
Swayman didn't really have to do much tonight, easiest game he's played all year and it's a playoff game. Samsonov is not doing the job at all, he's out of position most of the time and if it's a breakaway, forget it, only pass he gets was the 2 on 1...Woll is our only hope and that's a stretch.
Would be great if we had a real captain to step in in these types of situations.
People are always talking about Marner but what about Matthews?? He scores 60 almost every year and he's average at best in the playoffs.
The fact that special teams have been such a failure for this Leafs team proves its a coaching problem.
The coaching staff didn't work to try and improve the power play whatsoever.
Even the 4-on-3, we were completely ineffective. The crowd had every right to boo.
Oh what a shock!!!!!
Whose responsible for putting this group together?
Matthews has the Playoff Flue! AGAIN!
Nylander said shut the F up and play lol
very evident last year against Florida in the playoffs . Same issues again against Boston this year. When up against a physical team who plays good defense, forechecks well and battles along the boards for the puck. The leafs fluff four can't compete.
Until the leafs build a team to compete against Florida or Boston, which should be their primary objective. They better move out of the Atlantic division, otherwise expect the same results next year
