Going from 3 humiliating losses to beating a team that literally hadn’t lost a game up to this point whilst also almost blowing that game. This is the epitome of Leafs hockey.
I still dont get what they wanted to accomplish by changing the captain. noone is playing better or different because of the C. you either are a leader or you dont.
Should be future captain. He gives everything on every shift, that's what a captain is made of. He puts his body on the line to win, Matthews and none of the so called core 5 have those attributes.
Tuesday: "It's Columbus; we're obviously going to get blown out here". Thursday: "It's St. Louis, Berube's former team....Yeah I'm not surprised". Saturday: "Marchand is 100% going to break his scoreless streak with an OT winner..." Monday night: "Jets are undefeated....Yeah we're absolutely beating them!"
I am a Penguin’s fan and I watch every LFR! Thank you Steve for brightening my day every time! I would never hope for Leafs lose for you to react to, but I would to hear Adam be mad about it on the podcast the next day! Also, I just read both of your books, they are awesome!
16:30 Truth be known, I skip a lot of LFRs after losses the last couple years, at least the ugly losses. I’d rather share in Steve’s joy and re-live the fun of watching the wins.
@@dolandarkxgrandayy6953 Not only did Edmonton score fewer goals against Columbus than Toronto did but they also lost the Face of their Franchise to the injury bug THIRTY-SEVEN SECONDS INTO THE HOCKEY GAME! AND INSTEAD OF RALLYING BEHIND HIM THEY QUICKLY DEFLATED LIKE A POPPED BALLOON!
Jets fan here. Our 5on5 play was sloppy and lazy, but we got vastly out worked. We deserved the loss. GG Leafs, but we'll get ya next time! #GoJetsGo ✈️
Three "Leafy" moments: 1. Leafs defeated the undefeated Jets! 2. They did it wearing them Bieber jerseys!? 3. They nearly blew a 4-0 lead?! 😅 Go Leafs Go!
I can name one contender for weirder team in North American sports: Minnesota Vikings of the NFL have: - 3rd best cumulative regular season of the Super Bowl Era - 4 Super Bowl appearances - Never had 3 consecutive losing seasons - Have finished every decade of the Superbowl era with more wins than losses - Have never won the Superbowl - Have not been to the Superbowl since 1976 (Thank you to SB Nation for these facts)
I have to admit as a 71 year old Leaf fan the demons started to creep in when it was 5 to 3 and more demons came when it was 5 to 4 and thought this was going to be a typical lost for the Leafs as I have seeing many times. Glad they won. They need to stop the other teams from clawing there way back into the game.
Cycling the puck, finding open space, not letting the puck out of the Jets' end, causing HAVOC in front of the goal (thanks, Patch), and WINNING THE FIGHT FOR THE PUCK ON THE BOARDS!!!!! Damnit, it feels so GOOD to win a game like that. Like a strong team SHOULD win.
@@alatreon7451how do u give up 3 goals in like 2 minutes? ….. to the sharks Thats not just Leafy it Lost to a Zamboni driver leafy Although to be fair if u look at all the sharks losses in a vacuum most of them aren’t that bad they only got demolished twice
Gotta say, Steve, as a Winnipegger, you…….were pretty generous and classy in your remarks about our team. I tip my hat. Plus, Schief needs a little humble juice sometimes.
Now all they gotta do is win a game against boston in the regular season... 05 November will make it 2 years since last win . Doesnt bode well for a division rival.
"I don't care if you tie Dominic Hasek to Patrick Roy" A beautiful quote that like, a decent chunk of the people watching this video are too young to appreciate
The Leafs are a good team they are striving to be a great team. They have a long way to go. Thanks Steve really enjoy your videos. My great grandfather was one of the 3 owners of the Toronto St Pat's.
I feel like a massive, united sign of relief from Leafs Nation last night/this morning.. Ohhh boy we needd this! Great game. When our D is clicking, I LOVE some of these pairings. I saw Tanev with McCabe?? That's a SERIOIUS shutdown D-pairing, holy smokes! Let's hope the win rejuvenates the boys. GLG!!!
It's was very nice to meet you at the oshawa generals game on Sunday and I was about to get your book and my son was about to get you to sign your . My son was the kid with red hair and number 4t and 11 shaved in his head I just wish I would have gotten a picture all together.
@@melmack2003 Well, I grew up in Quebec, so dad was a Habs fan, so was I. Then we moved to Florida before hockey was ever thought of here, but Panthers fan since '93. The only team I cannot root for are the Bruins. No way would that happen, like ever. You never know, maybe some day... nah. But Steve is a hoot!
Let’s be honest , it was a lot of score effects from Refs calling Toronto for absolutely everything to keep butts in seats watching Amazon instead of it being a blowout I never doubted the W after the 3-0 was scored
Watching the game live and seeing Tavares' first goal: Me "I can't wait to watch Steve Dangle credit their success to the fact that they WENT TO THE NET" 😅
Love the Canadian teams but ngl I've had the jets on fraud watch this season, 6 of their 8 wins were comebacks, 3 wins were in ot and the only playoff team they played before the leafs was Edmonton to start off the season who were dreadful to watch. 8 wins to start is great but I dont think the jets standings reflect the teams strength.
Before the game, even the day prior, I said to several mates which all think the Leafs are a fake team, that the Leafs will win over the Jets. They told me I'm delusional, I'm an idiot, and I find that hilarious when I always criticize this team, always, but I knew they'd win. I don't understand, I've never been able to understand how Leafs, regardless of who is on this team, always manage to be INSANELY Inconsistent. Like, how? How do you lose in such pathetic fashion, multiple times, only to (just barely) hold onto a victory over the best team, thus far.
Dude for casual fans and people who don’t understand my fandom , do you know how hard it is to describe the Leafs?!! “Don’t the Leafs suck” No, that’s what makes them infuriating , they play amazing one night and turn into a pumpkin the next night
Tavares is absolutely recovering from something, I don't think I've ever seen a photo of him and been able to see his skeletal structure in his face so clearly
They need to play Total Hockey! "Taking on a challenge is a lot like riding a horse, isn't it? If you're comfortable while you're doing it, you're probably doing it wrong." ~ Ted Lasso
so wait, if u beat the leafs year after year embarrassing them over and over and they cant show up for those games aka boston, but when a player says its fun beating u once.... now theyre mad.... kinda embarrassing to be a leaf
My main hobby is Sudoku. I am in 100% agreement with my man Steve: trying to solve a Sudoku with a giant ass in my face would be cumbersome to say the least.
I’m the opposite, I thought we were dead when I saw this game coming up. When it was 5-2 I thought we were going to blow it, then it was 5-3 and I thought about betting against us, then it was 5-4 and I almost laughed and said that’s my Laughs…then Tavares scored and I did laugh. This is what the Leafs do, either blow the game or only give us relief with seconds to go.
Funny how Holmberg gets a call for cross-checking and on the ensuing call while on the man advantage the Jets crosscheck Holmberg the same way and no call.
