PK just crushing all the pods lately 😂. Love it
Willy is a great player but even without him, we still have over $40mil in cap space skating on pp1. If you can't get it done with that, we need to change things up this summer.
its the coaching. standing matthews on the right side waiting for a pass, THE OTHER PK HAS THIS DOWN NOW!! they deny the matthews pass, they deny the down low cross crease, they force the puck outside and to the d man since the d never shoot anyways!!!!
Right its insanity man they should have made a major change when montreal dusted us or clthe blue jackets like this entire organization right now is a joke
Marner has been a ghost in every play off Series. I was mocked online as I said blow up this core the last several season , well here we are YET again. Mock me if u want but a core that is great in the regular season but does not have the grit or fortitude to fight like hell in the playoffs is NOT worth keeping.
Who takes them? Do other teams give a good return for these individual prices? Nobody wants perennial losers added to their team, which 10 million a year contracts.
@@mrillis9259retain salary on the final year of Marners contract, trade him for whatever you can get. The compensation won't be fair but it's better than getting nothing for him. He's going to demand a raise which the Leafs won't even entertain if they have any brains
.......... HE IS COMING OFF AN ANKLE INJURY... leave it to our dumbass fans to recommend trading one of the most valuable wingers in the league during his most down season ever. y'all are legit dumb.
@@mrillis9259 Plenty of teams haven't been to the playoffs in several seasons and could stand to lose like Toronto does for a short period, including getting those playoff home game ticket sales, as far as ownership's calculus.
@@mrillis9259 Lots of players excel after T.O. Carter Verhaeghe tearing it up in FLA, Hyman over 50 in a season? I think we could get a handsome price for Marns, plus, he's just entering his prime - he has longevity in his youth too. We need to get away from paying the "Toronto Tax" to other teams
Love hearing PK talk about the game just as much as i enjoyed seeing him play in Montreal. More personality than 99% of the league in both the player and media departments.
Great interview. PK needs his own Podcast.
Hate PK as a bruins fans, all these points he’s making is spot on and something I’ve been saying for the past couple days. I think keefe praising marchand was a bad move, keefe has been making horrible moves recently, I feel like lots will change for the leafs this offseason regardless of the outcome of their post season
keefe should have been fired last year even with winning a series he was lucky tavares scored that or he was gone. (Probably wouldn't have still) But even if the leafs win the series hes gotta be gone. He gets out coached in too many situations like our Power Play, after the 3rd PP I was like I'd rather it stay 5 on 5 🤣
Finally a sane voice. Thanks JD and PK !
This was actually a great interview with PK. So much solid insight from a Toronto pro. Man, good to hear him on my drive back from game 7. Stars made this 4 hour trip epic!
P.K. Is spot on ! Keefe making excuses is awful coaching!!!
I've been saying for the last few years Keefe is the problem
@@13leafsYep! He and who put him there both need to go...
Not the worst coaching, but definitely not the best. He doesn't understand defensive strategies to support the goalie. I dunno, I don't hate him, but we need better
PK's uncle Malcolm is a solid dude who is retiring from our company.
Funny to hear an uncoachable player talk about coaching
It feels like when jd is giving someone a compliment it somehow is also a bit of a jab lol
I'm glad PK is telling like it is.
Evan Bouchards shot on Edm pp is intimidating... Leafs don't have that
Can't afford it either.
@@mrillis9259they decided their pp guy at the blueline who's never had a slapshot needs 7,5m
Over his last 5 playoffs, Mitch Marner has only one more goal than Tie Domi got in his last 5 playoffs.
Marner one goal in 11 playoff games.
That’s messed up
He's a playmaker not a sniper lol
@@Blake-jz5bh Tie Domi was a thug, not a scorer... this is the playoffs. This is what it takes. This is what this core group lacks.
Met PK before he was in the show, the guy knows hockey so well. Crazy he never won a cup he was an amazing player that knew what it took to win, just never was given the pieces.
Hopefully he does some coaching in the future.
When he was in Montreal during those bruins playoff series he was the best player on the ice hate saying that as a bruins fan but he was a complete beast
He’s right on the money!
PK, your uncle Malcolm is a solid dude. Congrats on his retirement.
Not a PK fan,BUT I totally agree
So many fans just go straight to 'Panic City'.
Splitting up the top guys on the PP is exactly what Boston did and it worked. They went like 0-20 on the PP until the last couple games when they split up Marchand, Pasta, McAvoy, Zacha and got a couple PPGs at the end of the regular season and it has been on fire against the Leafs (who, admittedly, don't have a great PK). Keefe absolutely needs to change up the lines add a few new looks if the Leafs want to have any chance in this series.
Swayman owns Toronto
The leafs make every goalie look like a hall of fame candidate in the playoffs. Why? Because most wont get to the dirty areas to cause confusion for the oppositions goaltender
Mathews Domi and Willy on the PP.
Can tell he is not far removed from being a player. I agree about Keefe, but I'm not pinning it all on coaching like PK is.
Good point about Marner under Babs. We all thought he was too mean but maybe that is what he needs...Keefe has been reluctant to call him out or be hard on him for whatever reason. Also about the point shot - Tree tried to sign Klingberg. Obviously didn't work out but they were aware of that problem - didn't fix it at the deadline and use that cap space though so it's still on them.
He was a kid no need to do what he did and embarrass a kid who just made it to the nhl marner needs to figure things out on his own plain and simple
Subban is on ESPN with Messier during period intermissions. TSN and SportsNet should do the same. What they have now is terrible.
Keefe can be gone after this season, and throw Shanahan in that disposal aswell. Heck... for a fraction of the cost I could coach or manage this team 800% better.
Id be glad to be with the team for home games for $20 an hour to be their motivator and just tell them how it is and what they gotta do to. The hype guy
I agree with PK re. the coach and Mitch but we shouldn't assume it's not happening off camera and i don't agree everything should be thrown out there for the media if he doesn't want to call out his player publicly, A it's a classy move, and B,there's probably a good reason for it.
Pk being a better podcast guest then he was a hockey player
They swapped the lines around. We were playing great, now i don't even recognize half the players names on the ice. They did the same thing last year. Changed everything around and we started losing and playing terrible before the playoffs. Don't know why they do it, but it's 2 years in a row and same results.
The bruins,are not as good,as in the past,PK is right,leafs gotta win,it’s now or never!
Boston in 6
I said 5 but 6 too. Either way they win.
PK is dead on about the managerial and especially the coaching in TO. Been saying that for over five years. Having said that ...at least one of your core 4 have to go.
Big W for Subban. He's absolutely right
Nothing helped PK more than a dry towel to dry off after a day of diving.
Leafs manager should have fired keefe when he took over and hired laviolette missed a huge opportunity
Come on Subban, stop giving Leafs fans more excuses if they get eliminated. -They didn't have Nylander. -Keefe is a bad coach. -The refs are paid by Boston. -The sun was in their eyes. -what's next......?
It’s nice to finally hear PK talk for once. He’s getting stomped on over at ESPN by Messier constantly. Fun fact: Swayman was supposed to be drafted by the leafs and they drafted Scott instead.
Joel Quenneville would be the perfect new Coach for the Leaf’s. He gets my vote. He can make a team perform. If The Leaf’s don’t start shutting Brad Marchand down, he will prevail. At least Pasternak is more humble about the way he plays. Marchand is THE worst example of a hockey captain that I have ever seen. He makes my skin crawl.
give me Marchand over the hexed Tavares all day long lol..but if the Leafs ever got a real coach like Quenneville?? they would literally win the cup
Steve Dangle as leafs head coach
Bang on PK, there is no coaching on this team. They look exactly the same every playoff. This horrible passing bull, their second goal was an accident. I hope they go out 2 straight, because Florida is going to kill these guys. The same bad passes 1 stride away from the blue line, same crap. You can tell their is no direction because they wouldn’t make the same stupid plays if their was..painful to watch.
Round 1 exit number 802
The LEAFS are soft are soft. It's not the coaches.🙏🤔
Put shanahan on coaches bench
Marner scoring on a power play.....5-7 % chance. He never scores, more likely to assist on a goal. Leafs Defenseman scoring on a power play. even less of a chance. so the other team is only really concerned about 2 guys on the power play. Tavares is in front of the net, hes easy to keep track of. So its only Matthews left. EVERY time. nothing ever changes. Domi has shown he plays amazing with Matthews. So what do they do.... put marner with Matthews and they fail. FFS, put Bertuzzi, Domi out there on the power play!!!
Something is going on that's keeping matthews from shooting domi and bert are not going to help that if they were then how come other than game 2 matthews has generated almost no offense the line hasnt changed
If it was up to me fire coach get Mariner,Mattews,Traveris start over I hear build team around Mattews you have be kidding me if you can play two periods and not show up to play the third he wasn’t hurt,this is not a playoff team never will be until and this was say before, they get the right player right coach, to many high paid players doing nothing and they want you to buy tickets merchandise, this has to end,also the management of this team where is there heads at grow some ball do what needs to done
Get rid of Mariner the winer,Mattew’s,Traveris and my other comments
14:44 Narcissistic people never never see themselves as narcissists
Sell Marner we go again next year
P.K is a native here, wish he was a leaf
I loved PK as a hab, but as a hockey correspondent, he is lame with nothing more to say then offer lame old hockey cliches, and tired old sports platitudes.
The definition of insanity is not doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result. Please stop saying that dumb quote. You know what doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result is called? It's called practice and you know what happens? You do get different results. You improve.
I just can’t get enough of your talent and inspiration! Thank you very much for your work! 💫💖
PK is right 1000%
pk nailed it we need him in toronto
no these problems have not "extended year over year " with power play that's not what pk is saying
Boston in 6
I said 5 but 6 too. Either way they win.
