One thing that's been bothering me the last few days is the Leafs are having a really hard time advancing with possession once they get the puck back defensively. Whole lot of pucks slapped to nobody in particular or missed breakouts, probably one reason they've been hemorrhaging shots lately.

Bozak line continues to be laughably high-event

Ugh this feels like an old Leafs night.

As bad as the Canucks have been they're actually pretty good at cutting down shots against and and playing a choking/counterattack game. Probably not a great matchup for a team struggling with structure. Though the Leafs are getting the better of things so far, so hey

It's just early game whining from me. I'm sure they'll turn it up a gear in a bit.

I say that and shots are like 14-3 and the Leafs lead.


Matthews has really got to take the shot more often

I feel like Polak should never be on the ice at the same time as Tyler Bozak in the defensive zone. Just a bad combo

Auston, why would you go for the backhand

Andersen looks pretty terrible so far, score notwithstanding

Seriously, Bozak line plus Gardiner-Polak is misery in the defensive zone

Wow Bozak again :siren:


How long until Babcock realizes last year was an anomaly and Komarov is a 4th liner? January?

Please put me out of my misery. What egregious sin did I commit in a past life to deserve this torture?

The Leafs were bad, with a terrible GM and a worse coach, and no pipeline in 2013. It really doesn't take that long to turn a team around once management turns over.
