LFR17 - Round 1, Game 4 - Effort - Bruins 3, Maple Leafs 1 

Sheldon has no idea what to do with this team, and frankly, no head coach could do better. The Leafs are just entirely, completely, definably awful in the playoffs, and this core is never going to change.

​@@TheRiverweasel09I don't believe Keefe is the man for the job, but I (somewhat), agree. This is an effort issue. They aren't 18 anymore. Mitchy isn't actually 9yo, contrary to his behavior at times.

Sheldon is cooked, he was never an NHL coach

The effort is shit.

@@people3865 Honest to god, look at the spread of Willie's stats pre-contract and post-contract. Marner is good for old doughnuts and Tavares is good for one goal every four to five games. The core takes up roughly half of the Leafs salary cap. You cannot win like this. Auston is the only star you have on Toronto that I trust actually gives a proper fuck about winning. I'm a "maybe" on Reilly.

😂😂😂

Leafs fans age quickly dude. when did Dangle became silver fox?

At this point I don't even know if they know how to WIPE properly!

They must have ass burgers syndrome ​@@MikePhotoGuy666

Chip, chase, choke!

Also, somewhere in that building are a toddler and a newborn.

Every year, I think, "yep, this is the season that broke him." And yet, every year Steve finds a new level of brokenness.

Posted 2am EST Oh no

@@juicestain442 AM… that’s the time we eurotrash have to stay up for to see the puck drop, watching with our eyelids duck-taped wide open. Being Leafy is painful in so many ways. We became Steve clones 😵‍💫🤯😭

At least one of us is profitting off this cursed team lol

they lose the next game and theyll have to put up a memorial for steves meltdown victims like it was 9/11 but for canada

7

Honestly that's just impressive. The fact that they won a series in that span is even more impressive

How about 1 for 14 on the Powerplay? You have better odds scoring shorthanded then the leafs do scoring on the powerplay.

wait.. what??? they won a playoffs' round last year tho, how the hell did they managed to do that when in the first time in 20 years they won a round?! Damn this core sucks!

Toronto Maple Leafs Hockey in a nutshell.

William Nylander, leader of men

He is a leader. I can see him being the headcoach someday.

Not all series, all damn season. Immediately Mitch scores. Keefe has defo been coddling him the whole time

What did he say?

@@brendanroe8604This week on Days of our…Maple Leafs?

Surprised there are no replies. It had me gasping for air. Absolutely a Top 10, if you want my vote. He deserves a frickin Oscar for this one.

@@canadianroot Yeah but he's not acting.

He still has no clue what he’s talking about. Goes on a rant about goaltending for 10 minutes when the leafs have scored 6 goals in 4 games… averaging 1.5 goals per game 😂

😂

Perfect.

👆 absolutely this! Thanks for the laugh brother!

I’d say they will lose game 6 at HOME … after leading 2-1 … now, that’s heartbreaking 😂

Yeah bro !!! The Maple LEAST will be eliminated !!!

It’s already in the script

He has never won a game against the Bruins, fun fact. He also let in the first shot last time he played them iirc. I'm terrified, but also the Bruins are the teams he's been the worst against historically so if he can shake it off and get his head into gear he's definitely the more consistent choice over Sammy

Well they gotta have game 7 for hockey night in canada for them ratings.

Just gotta hope that after the Leafs win game 5 and 6, both 1-0, that miraculously the offense comes online in game 7.

Just in case the hockey gods are actually listening, let's have the only/winning goals in the next 2 games be scored by Reaves and Lyubushkin. It'll be good for content.

I've watched a lot of these and I've seen Steve sad, frustrated, surprised, exasperated, and defeated...but I think this is the first video where I've seen him truly angry with this team.

​@@DreamTeamin150unhinged.

yup, I usually skip the ad reads, but this one was fun.

​@@jamespolnick2720 1967... can you blame him? 😅

Very effective! Made the IT solutions ad pop!

this might be the best analogy i’ve ever seen.

It's so Marner can say "I did my part". Please, please, please, please trade him. He's somehow small AND slow AND has a mediocre shot (which he refuses to even use). Horrible combination

@@AR-wm9lv Marner is the exact same size and weight as Brad Marchand. He is bigger than Patrick Kane. You dont need size to win in this league, you need guys who arent afraid of guys bigger than them though.

A new hope

@@stephennichol3620 I agree. You don't have to be big to be good. But if you're not big, then you either need to be fast or have a great shot. Marner has none of those. So he's not an offensive threat come playoff time

Well, i hope it's not the best episode of "steve brain meltdown", we need the last leafs game to be brutal, like 0-13 or huge fight inside leafs bench

It’s not acting

​@@willadams565No one said it was acting. Cinema does not have to be fake.

Yeah exactly. I put this video on my laptop instead of my phone just to get a better cinematic experience

me too! I'm a sicko

This and 2bcproductions lol

I was worried something had happened.

Me too! Steve knows how to put my thoughts into family friendly words lol

​@@j4gerb0mblitzdadanov... DADANOV!!! THAT MUTHER! *throws controller *

Dump and wipe...a new classic

😮

Great quote

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

"I'm not a goalie..." 😡

The BEST!!!

the expansion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, in the 1970s their coach was asked about "the execution of the team's offense." That's the source of the joke and it's a timeless one.

“I’m in favor of it”

Keefe & Co. is on hallucinogenics 🐸 Stop licking toads before the games. Stick to Play off hockey with the last regular lines. No more scrambling pls.

yep

Internet winner of the day!

Was is really worse

Same trash home ice atmosphere though

The big one is Carlyle. That Bruins team was 2 years removed from winning the Cup and was about to get back to the Finals. That Leafs team made the playoffs only because there were 48 games due to the lockout and didn't have another 34 to blow it......and they led 4-1 in Game 7 after erasing a 3-1 series lead.

babcock was a pretty good coach, just a terrible human being. i'm glad he's unemployed but facts are facts. all he had to do in columbus was become a half decent person and he couldn't even make it to to training camp lol

Carlyle was actually a good coach. Babcock is a puppet. Keefe is just waiting for the bruschetta platter he gets during summertime

Didn't amazon already do that?

/@carloronaldo6431 And the core 4 are only thinking about the money as per usual

@@johnsmith-ph1if Yeah exactly. It does a feel a bit that Matthews and Nylander care about winning, but then again they have barely made a difference this series (apart from Game 2) and are still getting paid over 11 mil each next year. If they really cared about building a winning team, they would have taken less money to build a better team like Crosby, Marchand, or Bergeron did

@@johnsmith-ph1ifof they are. All players that ever played in T.O. Just think of money

@@therockieshockeypodcast I would absolutely take trade offers on Marner and Matthews. Absolutely disappear in the playoffs and show almost no leadership. They have all the skill in the world but when the times get tough they just don’t do anything. I’d get rid of Tavaras as well, dude doesn’t do anything.

It's because in the regular season there's bad teams and good teams where the playoffs is just "good" teams

11 straight playoff games scoring 3 or less goals. And in 10 of those, they scored 2 goals or less.

People can blame sammy as much as they want but no team can win with this scoring.

The blaming goalies thing drives me postal! It would be one thing if we had a 14M goalie but the money is in offense that evaporates

And no team will. Period.

You just can’t compete with samsonov vs swayman. What do you expect them to do, outshoot the bruins 40-15 every game?

Sad day at the ACC 🎉

The fans don't know shit and are just as culpable in this team's failures. They keep paying ridiculous prices to see this team year after year instead of doing literally anything else in protest lmao

is the sun rising tomorrow.....

How is someone pointing out the special teams are bad funny

Because he screamed like a girl right after he said that and it was funny lol

So true!!!

would be the BEST! I said it since November! FIRE 🔥 KEEFE NOW! Nothing to lose! Go Leafs 🍁 Go!!!

That's soccer. You can't bring in a new coach in the middle of the playoffs in hockey. The coach sets everything up in training camp

​@@Outta-hz1ej why not? What is the real reason Nylander wasn't playing? Why was Matthews really missing in the 3rd period... strange- nothing but really strange!

@@robyschwendi2856 I hate Keefe but firing a coach mid series is unheard of.

@@Outta-hz1ejSo? Make it heard now.. I agree.. Screw it- Tre should just go on the bench until the replacement lol may as well

c'mon*

oh it hurts so much... he was the perfect matthews pairing....

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Now that's really rubbing it in.😂

Oilers won last night . Bet yall wish you still had Hyman

Just a reminder, Zack Hyman plays with his daddy, Jesus McDavid, the apple king. He gives Hyman all his cookies. The Leafs don't play with Jesus McJesus. If Hyman was still in Toronto he would NOT have more goals that the rest of the Leafs.

😂😂😂

You cannot expect anything from the leafs. You take the best player from every NHL and make the Toronto Maple Leafs they will still find a way to lose. They are cursed and the leafs need to retire the name maple leafs.

As successful in the post season as the Blue Jackets the past decade. But the Blue Jackets hold the tie breaker there.

Only cause Tampa was exhausted from 3 straight cup trips. Nobody played more games than them in that stretch.

Still need to score more goals then 2 a game

Agreed. Though you can definitely feel the difference from 2001. Ads at the start of LFRs are awkward.

Talent? He's a typical deranged leads fan. What an idiot

Nah, he's too yelly now it's very over the top. Maybe justified in this video, but it's every video these days

He's just so into Toronto ! Pathetic or adorable he is Steve !

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

An ied?

A belt, leather, 4cm wide

Hopefully some class… be more like Bergeron, for example.

He was therefor game 2. Now he’s sick… kinda hard to lead while suffering from food poisoning. Oh, yeah, I know, it’s an “excuse”.

They can say what they want but neither of the 4 have been nearly good enough. They get outplayed by the other teams best players in every series

Who out of the core 4 scored tonight?? Just curious

@@NelsonA_ lmao at that take

You don’t see ANY faults in Willy’s game?

@@craighutchison4343 not comparatively, no. shows up, most consistent in the playoffs out of all of them, oozes talent and doesn't brag about his k/d in fortnite.

As much as I dislike march u gotta respect the effort he puts into his team he is always there when they need him the most he is literally the guy. He does absolutely everything and anything to win rather if it's scoring goals, assisting goals, blocking pucks, getting into people's heads, drawing penaltys and heck even cheating. He's gonna do it all to make sure the bruins are on top not 1 single man on the leafs have the heart and work ethic as he does

Matthews had the most blocked shot by a forward this year. The other 3 invisible men no way they would do that, they're too soft.

Matthews celebrates like a dead fish though. Brad marchand celebrates by screaming at the bench. Both benches. Chirps, cheers, the dude is on fire with passion. That's my captain right there. Freaking pajama boy on the other side is as emotional as a bag of corn flakes

Problem is Marchand respects his opponents so he fights harder to win any possible way even if means taking a beating for his small stature.

I agree. Hockey is a sport where force of will and passion alone can sway the balance in your favor over anything, including skill. A decent player who is playing with everything he has will always beat the perfect player who doesn't have his head on straight. Its part of why I love the sport and respect the players. It was difficult to watch the Leafs (even as a Bruins fan). I didn't even enjoy it all that much because i ultimately felt bad for the fans. ​@DiamondKingVideos Just wanted to add, regarding Marchand, I haven't agreed with every stunt he pulled or his behavior at times but he gives a shit. It's that simple. He wants to win in a visceral way. His vital signs change, etc. But these Leafs act like they are playing a charity game. They clearly don't care about winning and they have very poor chemistry as a team.

Bend space and time ??? It would literally implode and create a blackhole that would spaghettify earth as we know it

Nylander taking a penalty with 8 min left in his first game back

​@@j4gerb0mblitzMitch taking an O-zone penalty as well. What's with all the dumbest O-zone penalties

Who cares at that point, you and the world knew they weren't coming back.

hows dubas doing there in pitts?

This was the least of the problems mate

I’m a Bruins fan and I honestly feel bad for you guys. And I’m not even joking. I was even ready to concede game four expecting it to be 2-2 after.

The leafs bring so much joy and laughter for the rest of Canada each spring. 😂

Next to the flyers it’s known around the league some of the best golfers not on the tour….It’s widely known Matthews could finish top 5 at the masters!

🎶 🎤 "Oh yes it's Ladies' night, and the feeling is right" 🎶

Watch marner win a cup before nylander and Matthews 😂

@@ninjanunch2769came here to say that 😂

@@VOLUMEnightclub you see them two prima donas yelling at Mitch on the bench? Then he scored and shoved it up their ass 😂 love it. Matthews can score 100 goals in the season but becomes a ghost when it matters most. Defense wins championships you need depth grit and heart to win a cup. I feel for leafs fans. I'm a Hawks fan btw

Yeah Utah will win a cup before the Leafs win another one.

Ya boy hotdog kessel did it, went back2back for good measure

I noticed that in the third period. They kept banging it off the boards and I started laughing because the Bruins beat them to the puck EVERY...SINGLE...TIME lol

Yes its dump and chase Leaf style. Leafs dump then chase the Bruins back to the Leafs net.

I hear ya

The fact the LEAFS could NOT get up for that game after THAT TRIBUTE, especially all the references to PAST LEAFS GLORY....absolutely and utterly inexcusable.

@@MikePhotoGuy666 I didn’t even grow up with Bob (I’m in the States) and I was ready to go through a wall for him.

@@MikePhotoGuy666it’s not that surprising really. There’s no one alive in that organization who remembers the last time the leafs had glory or even got close to it. Problem is the leafs are an organization driven strictly by profit and corporate sponsorships. They aren’t a hockey team just an LLC

Terrible decision. Like most of his in all honesty

Why oh what WHY did Skeefe break up the best effective line in Game 4 😖🤦‍♂️

Dewar was playing like he wanted to be a permanent fixture. Like he wanted the cup. That's unacceptable. Only players with 10 mil+ contracts who play like their golf reservations are set for 2 weeks are allowed

That was a typical Keefe move, prefers a soft skilled player over a gritty checking player..

Dewar Kampf and Reaves are absolute plugs. Speaks volumes about the rest of the team that they are highlights.

Hi from Medford

Well, they are doing it against a team that blew a 3-1 lead last year.

@@chickenteriyaki9501 And the Leafs nearly recovered from being in this exact situation against the Bruins 6 years ago with an arguably worse team.

Leafs beat the Bruins in Game 5 in Boston in 2013, 2018 and 2019. I have no faith in the Bruins closing this out in 5 lol

Sounds like a stanley cup run in the making. Wonder if anyones ever beaten odds like this?

@Kallogee The 2008 Boston Bruins lost all 8 games against the Montreal Canadiens that season where they didn't even have a lead. They were down 3-1 going back to Montreal for Game 5......and smoked them. Then they won one of the greatest games I've ever seen in Game 6 to force Game 7. So yeah, this series is NOT over

Quiet sad your life is so rudderless that you’re really that shallow. Hope you find real purpose again somewhere…

I would feel bad for the leafs, but we got our hearts broken last year so I'm just in glee we are getting into Round 2 😂

That took a lot of effort too, according to Keefe

As a Bruins fan, I have to tell you not a good luck for your player to miss the third period when I see hockey players coming back I’m broken legs and getting stitches on the bench winning culture means a lot. You guys are a better team and still can come back, but that was not a good look

@@RichardTavilla As a Flames fan, totally agree. Don't wanna be hard on a guy who's sick, but Matthews had to be unable to stand up to not play the third. Guys have broken arms and don't go down the tunnel, like you said, thats a winning culture.

Nope. He gets fired and Berube is hired.
