#leafsforever #torontomapleleafs #nhl
Just bought a Portguese chicken yesterday and Sid Seixeiro on the show today. Incredible
How does Shanahan survive? This all goes back to Kyle Dubas, who still doesn't get enough blame for tying up the money in 4 forwards and being unable to build around them. He than left for Pittsburgh for more power and for just as much because he couldn't fix his own mess in Toronto. And SHANAHAN approved it ALL!!!!!!!!
Dubas got taken to the cleaners by 4 stiffs. They dictated the terms and wound up being worshipped for nothing. Underachievement. I wonder what Sydney thinks of Dubas.
and replace him with Treliving who burned through coaches and left Calgary in the mess they're in now.
How about what he did with all our draft picks ffs.. Trading away each year to add to this “Gem” squad. Really paid off 😅 . Trying to emulate the raptors by going for it except they keep going for it & never actually make it Lmaoo. Not even close while literally mortgaging your future. Our cupboards are bare bones now . Thanks Kyle, thanks Shanny. Elite management. 💎
@@republica7337 If Dubas' job in Pittsburgh was to enhance the team enough for it to compete in the playoffs, then it's a failure. If Dubas' job was to do blockbuster trades to rejuvenate this team, then it's also a failure lol... He didn't do shit in Pittsburgh so far.
Dubas was completely inexperienced. Shame on Shanahan for bringing him in
Bruh what a coward move Shanahan pulled here. He literally used Keefe to get all the flak from the press right after the elimination, then fired him. They knew they were going to fire him and USED him like some kind of PR human shield. Fuck that.
Sucks!! Fire Shanny too!! We need Berube! I don't like Treliving either!
Yep, totally agree, I thought the same thing.
I actually disagree with all the "Fire Shanny" chants. He JUST hired a new GM, and JUST has new ownership. If there was a time and place to NOT fire the team President this is it!!! You don't add even MORE instability to the situation. If same stuff next year, different story. But you simply cannot change ownership, presidency, GM, coach in the span of two seasons and expect to have a coherent plan. Its basically admitting to a crapshoot. (Granted, some Leafs fans might say "hey go for it", and I sympathize!)
Sheldon Keefe *WOULD NOT* have had an NHL coaching job without Brendan Shanahan. Knowledgeable fans know that the buck stops at Shanahan, and they know it was he that hired Babcock, installed Dubas as GM, and greenlighted all those big salaries for the core 4. He did things ass-backwards, but now he reports directly to Keith Pelley, rather than the Board, and it will be Pelley who will challenge the hockey decisions going forward that were unchallenged (IMO) in the past. I suppose that's one good thing.
@@jamesanthony5681 Agree with you on everything, but I think Keefe owes his job to Dubas, not Shanahan. Shanny hired both Babcock and Dubas, which was a mistake regardless of what you think of either man. A young, confident stats-heavy GM isn't going to get along with an old school, blood and guts "work hard and make plays" type of coach. FWIW, I think both Babcock and Dubas are overrated to an obscene degree. As is analytics, but thats another convo! Between the two, if Shanahan could only hire one and had to pick? Easy. Babcock.
'I'll take Least Surprising News Item out of Toronto for $1000, Alex.'
Good one.
No one can coach these babies to a cup
So simple. So true.
@@datriaxsondor590 Should Brendan Shanahan get to remain President, he'll likely bring the AM34-Marner-Nylander-Rielly-Tavares quintet back, and if there's a head coach who wants to butt heads, Leaf fans should be prepared for: - repeated angry comments from the head coach similar to what Rick Bowness, the Winnipeg Jets' then-head coach, did following his then-team's 5-game loss of a 2023 opening-round series against the Golden Knights - perhaps fights between the HC and players
@@wainber1 AND FANS keep spending money.. MLSE are happy
A Sippy Cup, maybe.
@@wainber1 Spot on. This mess was created the day Shanahan (or Dubas?) fired Babcock for hurting Marner's feelings. It sent a message to the locker room. Keefe knew that he had zero ability to call out anyone. If Babcock were still coach, Marner would have been sitting in the press box plenty of nights if he didn't get his act together, regardless of his salary.
Babcock was removed because he spanked mariner 😂…if they bring in Berube he’s gonna do the same thing hopefully this time they don’t fire him for tryin to turn some boys into hockey players
F Babcock. He inherited a good from Bowman. Bab won one cup. And that team was good for years.
I mean babs was a smug mf tho so I do agree with some things he did but the guy had too much favouritism .. But ya him t bagging Marner is hilarious in retrospect 😅
IMO there's a man who could do the job as head coach in Toronto. Bob Hartley. He knows how to handle contender teams and turn them into winners. He knows how to bring the best out of skilled players. He won the Cup, won championships in Switzerland and in the KHL. I remember he was fired from Calgary because they wanted to reconstruct but he turned the team upside down, made then-rookies Gaudreau and Monahan erupt into superstars and made the Flames go to the second round against all expectations. I think Hartley would be willing for one more chance at the Cup. The Leafs need a veteran head coach to straighten up those millionaire babies. The good thing with Hartley is that he is the opposite of Babcock, he's a talkative coach with a positive attitude. It would work with them IMO.
Babcock might be the most overrated coach in the history of game. That guy is actually terrible lol.
@@peanuttgalleriYEP And yet the names in his locker room that loved the guy: Lidstrom, Shanahan, Yzerman. The knuckle draggers on one of the goon podcasts tried to bait Todd Bertuzzi into ragging on Babs. He said "fricking loved the guy. Work hard, you play. Dude saved my career." Psychopath Mike Commodore has a 20 year beef with Babs because...wait for it... he didn't get ice time! Look, Babs was a PRICK. Big time. But the guy didn't tolerate prima donnas or floaters.
Mitch needs to accept a realistic #. Period! Unfortunately, he has an agent and a parent who ain't gonna let him speak.
If Babcock were still coach, I guarantee you that one of the seats in the press box would bear the shape of Marner's keester by now, he'd be sitting in it so often.
Leafs giving out no move contracts is their own fault. They could've moved Marner last summer before the no move kicked in, but thanks to Shanaplan who has no vision or plan, he decided to keep the brat.
I actually blame Dubas for that. But Shanahan is to blame for choosing Dubas over Babcock in that power struggle.
Matthews will get you a ton of regular season goals but he wont get you cup IMO.
I saw something different this playoffs. He played sick/injured, was put on the third line and tried. that goal where he grabbed it on the blue line was going in. Not a goalie in the world could stop that. I think getting rid of Marner is a must. Even Nylander called him out on the bench. Matthews and Nylander are natural goal scorers. If the Leafs can surround them with a bunch of Domi's and Bert's I see good things.
Totally disagree. Matthews is an elite player who can help get us to the Stanley Cup finals. He rocks!
He has to develop his inner monster. He needs some of that Pasternak energy.
No question Tavares has to go. Marner has to go. Marner is softer than a number #2 and Tavares has the personality and enthusiasm of a shower curtain. 22 million is freed up if they are gone. It's a no brainer.
My shower curtain has more life than Tavares. Take it back! 😂
No brainer ? Who's gonna take them and their huge contracts ? All the GMs know what we know and have seen what we saw
@@billboggs6641that's the reality. No GM in this league will jump at a chance to get Tavares or Marner. They'll spend their money elsewhere with better returns.
shower curtain...lol
@@billboggs6641 I hear you, but you still have to try. I can live with keeping JT but demoted to 3rd line center and remove the Captaincy from him and give it to AM34. Marner needs to waive the no trade clause first, and I think some teams would be interested but only if the Leafs pay half the salary.
Marner is a 3rd liner in the playoffs and should not be re-signed. He leads the way for the soft team culture and that needs to end now.
If the corporations are buying the seats all the time who cares right ? I surely wouldnt spend a dime on the leafs.
Sid and Nick are fierce. They don't hold back. Imagine these two behind the leafs bench as co-assistant coaches.
Lolol Sid is the biggest coward and will hide the second someone gives him pushback.
No one loves hearing Sid talk more than Sid. My gosh Have some awareness already
He’s a woke stooge
He likes the smell of his own farts.
the only bigger gay guy in Ontario is Boissonault, and both are complete criminals
He thinks he's god's gift on the planet and that his opinion matters more than others. That's why he runs his disgusting garbage mouth all the time.
Wow, what is Shanny still doing in the building?? I think I see what is going on here. This year they will blame it on Keefe(a year too late). Next year they will blame it on Marner(years too late). And on the 3rd year they will finally blame it on Shanny(many years too late). They are trying to stretch out the losing as long as they can while throwing the fans a bone here and there. I now expect nothing more to change. What a pathetic organization.
💯
Going be busy Summer for the Leafs with players like Brodie, Klingberg Timmins trying to move, Muzzin and Murray contract expires this year, and Giordano getting close to retirement
That Breakfast TV host has some decent hockey takes.
Damn. Spot on
Fans wouldn't go below getting a Stanley Cup and unfortunately he was not able to get the Stanley Cup and as a Coach he could get the players to play a good power play and this failure was the biggest weakness in Sheldon Keefe coaching. Firing him was a step in the right direction. Secondly the roster needs to be changed with big time changes
How does this channel only have 10.7k subscribers? They have the hottest guests all the time and the content is 🔥
Legit. They do a bang up job.
Just keep Tavares. His deal expires in one year. Whatever. Suddenly they have 11 million in cap space in one year. The Marner thing is harder.
If they let him walk too then it’s 22M
That's a fair point. I feel they're pushing for to much with moving J.T. Marner take a shot, ask him at least. If not let it slide till the next year and go from there.
@@user-fc2tj8lf2m disagree. Marner needs to be shipped out. Sends a message to the rest of the self entitled core.
J.T will resign but as a rental player 2mill 1yr extension
Can they figure out a way to put JT on LTIR LoL
Sid you are right on about the Leaf situation.If they do not change the Roster it is going to be the same results no matter who the Coach is.
Yeah ...show us the input that Shannahan had in the last decade and tell us why he dont get the boot out of T.O . What if they get knocked out next year ? Is it a coaching change again? Just tell us what Shanny has done....nothing as far as my concern...but he gets to keep his job...and never speaks to the media. Why is he still there ?
Always has all the answers
Dude you said keefe needed to go on Breakfast television
Whatever Auston wants, Auston gets.
if Mitch is still on the team at the start of next season, I call on Leafs nation to give him the Larry Murphy treatment. Boo that coward until he demands a trade out of town to anywhere.
And my bet is that this is the beginning and end of the "off-season changes" the Leaf's make. "Running it Back". Again. Because THIS TIME...we're SERIOUS!!!11!!!
I hope Seixero stays on BT if he has anything to do with hockey/leafs coverage in the future Ill have to tune out.
Sheldon should have taught Mitch and the other Leafs to back check all the way to the net until - the play is broken up. When Domi outplayed Matthews in the playoffs - why did Matthews play at Centre ice in game 7. Likely Matthews is an elite winger - but Matthews is a playoff disappointment at centre ice. Mitch and other Core 4 players need some leadership coaching from the new coach. The Leaf Followers want to hear Mitch owning his back checking OT screw ups, and telling Leaf Fans he wants to play his heart and soul in the next 8 years - that is why he wants to be a Leaf. But Mitch came across he just plays because he feels he is a God in Toronto. Mitch needs to become a better man to become a better Leaf. 😀
Not happening. Mitch is a child with skills.
@@republica7337 Let us not give up on any man. Hockey is a game only - one that Leafs love. I get that. Mitch screwed up by not back checking as hard as possible in game 7 OT. He looked bad watching from the blue line just coasting - while the Bruins won the series. And then Mitch didn’t address his screw up immediately at games end. The pass was just too fast for Morgan and Sammy to play - also too dangerous to touch (just don’t deflect it into the net). Only Mitch as back checking could match the speed of the rush. Mitch did have inside position to even just eliminate the rush from cutting in front of the net and scoring. My wish is someone helps Mitch mature. That is more important than being an $11 Million Leaf forward. 😀
We don't honestly think that they're going to say at a presser that "we will be actively looking to trade Marner". That's not going to happen, Treliving will do it quietly and hopefully fairly soon.
Great show guys as always. Nick, I agree with you. Shanahan needs to go. He has been at the helm for this whole experiment, and it has failed miserably! You don't spend half your cap on four pretty boy forwards who are not willing to muck it up in the nasty areas. None of our core four ever get their hands dirty. Hell, I even watched Auston Matthews get rag-dolled by somebody and he didn't even push back. Generally, we just get physically beaten out of the playoffs. I mean that literally. The other teams hammer us relentlessly and we are too soft to push back, so we lose. We need a complete culture shift throughout the MSLE organization. We coach our teams to be pussies. We coach them to not get penalties. We seem to coach them to be complacent. What the flying f***! Here's one example. We played Boston for seven games and I'm sure there were a few hits by the Maple Leafs that were pretty good. I can't remember any of them. Do you know what I can remember? The first game of the Florida/Boston series where Brad Marchand nailed Matthew Tkachuk with an epic, open-ice hit. The Toronto Maple Leafs are in serious need of the killer instinct, with a coach and players who buy into it 150%. We're not going to win a Stanley cup again until we have it. #SoftLeafs
The Islanders team that won 4 cups. These easily intimidated weaklings. No comparison.
Mitch Marner needs to grow the hell up. He needs to stop crying on the bench when things aren't going his way, and figure it out. The guy is 27 years old and he acts like a spoiled teenager. He should take lessons from Nathan MacKinnon on how an NHL player is supposed to conduct themselves and lead a hockey team.
I wish the NHL would reinstate Quennville. He is the coach they need!!
Sid has been right about so much for years regarding the Leafs. Brad now has to do the dirty work, but Shanahan has to get off his butt shield and allow some core movement.
Sid has never been right about anything. He only jumps on the bandwagon after the cards have been revealed and then say he was right from the start. Like a lying narcissist.
they resign Mitch Im out
Give Mitch one more year to try to live up. You're not going to easily replace a MM. Maybe a new coach can squeeze some juice out of him.
Mitch will be asking for Nylander money. Save that money and get a goalie AND a defenceman. Will have to wait til July 2025
@@heavyarmsofsteel NYLANDER SHOULDNT BE GETTING NYLANDER MONEY dude.. wtf are we doing here.
@@peanuttgalleriYEP Well Dumbas started it...
@@VitoAnthonyD.-ow7ooit’s not about replacing Marner, it’s about being different, his money can be a D and goalie, we might miss out on his points but get better in other ways... In the playoffs Mitch disappears when it matters, so it’s easy to replace ZERO points 😂
Shanny told Sheldon to give the press on Monday without telling him he'll be fired. Now Shanny pulls the trigger after Sheldon takes 100% of the blame for the Leafs, so that Shanny looks like an innocent angel on Friday.
I don't agree with Sid's points about how fans show up anyways and always will. That's an incredibly dangerous approach to take with a fan base of your crown jewel property. Eventually significant apathy will set in, and it wont come back because you torched a generation+ of new fans.
We're you around during the low times of the Ballard years. It took a long time but eventually fans showed up with bags over their heads. I doubt anything can ever destroy the leafs' fan base. Pretty much nuke proof.
Maybe someone should ask Sid to coach, since he clearly has a lot to say.
No. Because that would mean he would have to take responsibility and all Sid can do is complain, bitch and whine.
first of all Samsonov and Brodie have to go, I would trade Nylander even if it means a loss. The difference in game 7 was the goalies, Woll was the reason for the comback, Samsonov was the reason for the losses. Sure Swayman was incredible but Mitch played well the last few games considering the lack of support.
Shanahan has to go, he had plenty of time to build something and gave the reins to a kid! Then the kid stabs him in the back!
Please send Anthony Stewart out as well. Nick buddy, NONE OF us enjoy him on here. Business is business
Where is Tim
If people have still have an issue with quenville , why was chicago able to retain the 1st round pick ????????
You cant fire the players. Situation mirroring the dallas cowboys, regular season studs playoff duds...the tinder joke got r my sub👍
… And now, the end is near And so I face the final curtain My friend, I'll say it clear I'll state my case, of which I'm certain I've lived a life that's full I traveled each and every highway And more, much more than this I did it my way … Regrets, I've had a few But then again, too few to mention I did what I had to do And saw it through without exemption I planned each charted course Each careful step along the byway And more, much more than this I did it my way … Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew When I bit off more than I could chew But through it all, when there was doubt I ate it up and spit it out I faced it all, and I stood tall And did it my way … I've loved, I've laughed and cried I've had my fill, my share of losing And now, as tears subside I find it all so amusing To think I did all that And may I say, not in a shy way Oh, no, oh, no, not me I did it my way … For what is a man, what has he got? If not himself, then he has naught To say the things he truly feels And not the words of one who kneels The record shows I took the blows And did it my way … Yes, it was my way
Keefe took the heat for his PLAYERS' failure to perform. This firing was a fait accomplit but a good dude lost his job today. This won't be his last coaching gig in the NHL.
A difference I see is Dubas was an inexperienced man child while Treliving is more a grizzled older experienced guy. Next coach needs to have authority to run the team like he sees fit. Not a player's coach, but a guy who will be respected due to this pedigree.
They have to find a way to unload Tavares. Mitch at least gets lots of points, can play PK, can rush the puck, pass, and make plays. I get it, he's become the fans whipping boy. GM shouldn't listen to fans.
Taveras is -35 life time. That's not good Funny part is Brad Marchant is +292 and is the best among any active players Even Crosby he is 75 behind Marchant I was super surprised on that. The average top scores all are about +140-160
I agree, need to unload JT!! It wasn't all Marners fault they lost, it's the whole team collectively! I love Mitchy!!
Mitch is making 10M. Marner is not worth 10M and will want a raise. Leafs certainly can't afford Mitch. I like Mitch on the PK, PP. He stinks when the pressure rises.
Marner is a disaster in the playoffs and wants at least 12M/year. Tavares likely resigns around 4M or they let him walk. 8M difference in cap space right there.
Leafs gave Mitch the benefit of the doubt and paid him 10M. There are more players that are not performing but are not making 10M. Like the saying "you get what you pay for"'' Not in this case. Leafs need to add bonuses during the playoffs.
I think Matthews is the problem with this team,he's only out for goals and he will take a low percentage chance at a goal then to make a pass ,just look at the stats, high shot percentage to assists.
I might leave as a fan. It will hit the fan after 32 years. If this management doesn’t do anything. If I am fickle than so be it. If 32 yrs of living in and supporting an abusive relationship is enuf and smart to leave, than it’s smart.
Marner will be booed off the ice every night
Can the leafs buy out Tavares?
Tavares+ Reilly+Brodie+ Gio= Early playoff exit.
Time for ROR to call up Mitch and put the Nashville bug in his ear...Marner for Saros...this is all I want
I'm pretty sure ROR had seen enough of Toronto's soft core, and that's why he never re-signed. I doubt he'd be trying to lure them over to Nashville.
If the leafs dont move on from Tavares and marner at LEAST IM DONE ILL SAY IT AGAIN THE CORE 5 DOSEN'T WORK IT JUST DOSENT WORK.
Collective brain cramps on that overtime goal.
Imagine a guy who surprisingly still has a job talking about people who shouldn’t have a job.
Sheldon did the best he could the players were hurt but the Shanahan should be gone to he has imposed on the top brass as he overloaded on salary they should realize that shann has to go too he hasn’t,t done anything since he was hired the defence is old traverse is a bad signing to you show balance in one sided offensive line and that’s it
I love Sid's takes. loved the Leafs since i was 7 but man im starting to really get sick of this fucking mediocrity
Why would Mitch want to stay and get booed all season
They got sick of listening to sid shoot his mouth off and at the end say I don’t know
Rempe was found , the old leafs scouts would never sign him . 2025 is different I hope
Who would Shanny’s replacement be ?
Kyle Dubas quits in Pittsburgh and is the new replacement for Shanny 🤣
@@vp9672The man in the moon,would be better!
A wet mop in the corner at this point.
Trudeau! 🤣
Wendell Clarke as President! Gilmour as head coach!
But they aren't gonna offer Mitch an extension, so y would he stay
Sid is right. No pressure to be successful when the fans accept and ultimately support mediocracy by buying tickets
Shanahan absolutely should have been sacked!! It's truly him that kept "running it back" year after year! Why is he still here??
I doubt Pelley will fire him. There is a bond, but who knows. Business is business.
Think they will eliminate Shanahan's job all together.
This changes nothing. Shanahan has equal responsibility in the roster construction. Players dont accept responsibility. Why are they still with the team? Any guys crazy enough to walk into this mess is drinking a poisoned cup. Why would Mitch leave and who would want to eat that contract? There is no accountability for performance.
No coach can save this pathetic team. The roster needs to change like Sid said. Agree - they need to explain why Shanahan is still around. Fans need to wake up. To many cry babies in Toronto buying tickets to watch losers
Hate to say it but the fans deserves this if they keep paying and supporting this garbage organization.
Sid is a marvel when he focuses on sports and not being woke - I couldn't have said it better myself(I'm also not a media professional). Well put & spot on Sid! The fans bitch and moan, but then they bend over for the evil 4 letter to plow them - they ask for more and more. Side note: did Stewy seriously get reprimanded by Rogers?
What does woke mean
Resign Domi and Eddy and trade for a Top goalie if you don't trust woll with the amount of injuries. Sign a top coach for 3 years.
Kirk Muller Assistant and Babcock as head coach ! MARNER OUT !
Babcock should be locked up. He won one lousy cup with a great red wing team. Just one.
I think marner is a great player.....but I doubt the Leafs will be willing to pay him 12 million
You guys want a meaner coach, Mike Tyson vs Jake Paul the winner should be the Toronto Maple Leafs new coach. ✌
Sorry Sid Trudeau can't coach the Leafs
If only you guys had a Stanley Cup winning coach vetted by THREE international hockey organizations and supported by three former captains in his locker room. OH WAIT, YOU DID! You fired him because he hurt Marner's fee-fees over a botched office demo. Say what you will about Babcock, but I think that event sent a message to this team, and the wrong one: the coach must make players comfortable or lose his job. Don't feel bad, though, Leafs fans, his next team got rid of him because he.... are you sitting down? Are your kids out of the room? HE ASKED A PLAYER TO SEE HIS PHONE! Look, I'm not a Babcock stan - we had him in Detroit and he was a PRICK, but he got results. And I still say the coaching fate of Mike Babcock is one of the most puzzling things about the hockey internet over the past few years. The guy pisses a few people off, doesn't start a few legends on milestone nights, and doesn't give a bunch of goons ice time...... and? Suddenly every hockey youtuber is treating the guy like he belonged on the side of a milk carton and was some sort of creeper. Oh wait, I forgot his most egregious sin. Murder someone? If only it were that minor. HE. HURT. JOHAN. FRANZEN'S. FEELINGS.
I think people were/ are mad that he didn’t choose to be a decent human being numerous times when he had the chance. I assume it wasn’t as simple as “asked to see a players phone” although it is a breach of privacy from someone in a power dynamic. There has to be a quality coach outside of Babcock. But maybe coaching isn’t the main issue with the leafs 🤷🏻♀️
When a coach is a baby sitter,the mental toughness leaves the room,all the talent,and strength ,don’t mean diddly,if you don’t have mental toughness!End of story!
I picked the Leafs to win the Cup,because with their talent,I figured it was due,and I am a old man from Chicago!
@@tomfilipiak3511 but can’t we agree there’s a difference between being a hard coach, having accountability, and being an asshole?
@@madelyns9908 I totally agree with you that coaching may not be the problem with the Leafs. 100% . As far as Babcock goes, his job isn't to be a decent human being. His job is to win games. Exactly what he said about the Modano and Spezza issues, and he was spot on correct. I think we sometimes have different standards for people. Would we react the same way if Babcock's name was replaced with Tortorella? And I actually like Torts far more than Babs. As far as the phone thing goes with the Blue Jackets, it pretty much shattered their locker room, with a lot of leading players liking Babcock and looking forward to the season. All it took is one jackwagon to go to the brain trust Bisonnette to give him content to gripe about. Also, did anyone notice John Davidson visibly CRINGE at the presser when a reporter asked him about Babs resignation payout? Because it was easily FULL contract value, if not an NDA enhancement. Lawyers would be lining up for that one. "Looking at phones" is not firing for cause in any court on EARTH! hahahaha. I love Chicklets and the rest of the guys, but let's hope the days of former goon podcasts having influence on the current NHL will soon be over. Double-digit IQ has beens are funny and interesting, but influential? The horror.
Dead on Sid
I miss tim and sid
Who cares what Sid thinks.....He is the biggest troll goofball in Toronto and he will be one of the reasons nobody will want to play here! Say whatever you want about Mike Babcock, he was right about Mitch Marner...........
Mitch is done. Hes a contract yr....think he wants to go thru a contract yr dealing with all the distractions and all the ways the Leafs could make life uncomfortable for him through the season??? Nah , he'll waive. Its done. Get that spoilt brat out of that room
WTF is with Stewart's hat? NER IS THE FUTURE? Makes no sense.
Maybe Auston is the problem
Matthews is a playoff disappointment at centre - and probably an elite playoff winger. Why did Matthews go back in at Centre after all these years of being a playoff disappointment, only to have Leafs lose another game 7?
Sheldon knows more about hockey than Sid knows about broadcasting and everyone at BT is there because they fit a political correct slot so who cares what anyone from BT said about our Leafs
Nylander,matthews & JT have performed in the playoffs dor the last 5 years & what has marner done in the last 5 years in playoffs nothing!!! Bye bye marner
It’s hard to coach gods
😂
😂
Stop buying anything from this org until Shan is gone.
Shanny, Tavares, Keefe & Marner should all walk the plank. of course. But Matthews should also be traded...Mr 69 is the milk carton man. He is a players version of the Presidents Trophy. I don't care if he scores 500 regular season goals. It has been 8 years that Matthews has been a playoff no show. This story is way past being just old.
Go Sid go !!
As long as Shanny runs this team I'm done. Ol blue glasses needs to changes his prescription
Until the fans start to stay away they will never win...for God sakes...the most expensive tickets.....STAY AWAY
🎯
Taveras is -35 life time. That's not good Funny part is Brad Marchant is +292 and is the best among any active players Even Crosby he is 75 behind Marchant I was super surprised on that. The average top scores all are about +140 to 160 John is a wonderful person but the Leafs need major changes. The 2 with the most money to get back is John and Marner. $$$$$$
Bad take. Coaches literally go get players to play different all the time. I saw it as a Sharks fan when Deboer came in. Stop being so fkn emotional Leafs fans! GLG!
Keefe the fall guy for the snore four not delivering
Since 2019, if he can't get this group to perform then, see ya.
Sid for prime Minister
Yeah. Forced clinical drug trials for everyone! 😆
Love the show, but Sid is a useless POS. Had to leave before my ears started to bleed
I cannot stomach this guy. He’s very negative and I think he has an anger issue. He’s not a good guy.
Sid knows nothing about sports, that’s why he is on a girls show
Sid’s a pigeon! Who the hell cares what he says!
I love Sid he is the best
Sid Seixeiro the man of many talents. Defender of pride themed nights. Lets send him to Palestine!
