Les Maple Leafs sont officiellement en mode désespoir alors qu’ils doivent maintenant s’attaquer à une tâche presque impossible, face à un déficit de 3-0 contre les Panthers. Quels sont les derniers mouvements pour les Leafs? L’analyste de TSN Hockey, Martin Biron, en parle.

This is gonna be savage 😅
i just have a few players id put in simmons and clifford.
The Leafs have moves to be made after the season ends. Hey, I'm a hardcore Leaf fan….normally very resistant to making any broad criticisms of the team. However, I think the current team is fatally flawed, in regard to playoff hockey. What is missing is the passion and physicality necessary for playoff hockey…and it's clearly missing from Marner, Matthews and Nylander…and is not changing anytime soon. The off-season needs to see significant change in what is seen as the core of this team…or we're back to the exact same thing next year.
In this series Matthew and Marner cant be together.
Maybe to just play to their salary potential would be a great start…💙🤍
Leafs just want to lose in game 4 just so they can avoid losing in game 5 in front of their fans!
Turtle, collapse into the fetal position. Accept reality.
Habs will be better than the leafs next year! Crazy!
Throw a greanade in the room.
I think Kadri would look good back here right now. Sure he fucked up but it was through passion and intensity.
Disappointed – he really said nothing. Woll obviously needs to start as no one else is healthy enough. And energy from top lines has disappeared in this series and is not coming back. Blow 'er up.
The Leafs are done. They fluked into the 2nd round and have proved they don't belong there. The 4 Horsemen of the Choke ride once more.
The only juggling left for keefe to do would be to change the name of the team .
He’s completely screwed himself by not playing marner-Matthew’s-nylander together.
Leafs fans might just get ready – to watch another 8 years of these playoff disappointments. Just enjoy regular season wins & accept players like Marner are not NHL playoff star players.
The last ditch to move is to fire the GM, fire, the coach, trade the core, five, and rebuild. That’s the last ditch hope.
Fire the coach.
To clean out their lockers and go golfing
Load the top 2 lines putting O'Riley on the 2nd line but bring in Simmons and start pushing Florida around.We see what happens when Toronto sends out 3 figure skating lines Florida will win . Somehow someone needs to give Marner room by playing tough through the middle.Oriley with Marner and Bunting this will give Marner room.Mathews with Tavares and Nylander.Marner doesn't need great offensive players with him if he has room he will be great and make them great.Oriley and Bunting can score off Marners rebounds by parking near the paint.Put Riley on with Marners line so he has an other offensive player and with Bunting and O'Riley causing havoc Marner and Riley can do their thing .They can't double team all 4 of them.Toronto must play in the middle or they will lose. The third line should be the next biggest players left over and give Florida hell.Their role is to just hit and bother the goalie .
The last ditch move would be to play 2 lines and throw in an extra line when those lines get tired. Load them up.
The Leafs have no energy.
Winning a round was enough for them.
Tiresome hearing their interviews, same old standard PR bullshit. They mentally are done and it shows.
There is nothing to do they are done, dead they partied too hard at round 1 victory its over
If management wasn't so stubborn they could have started building a playoff team 2 years ago – keep a couple of highly skilled offensive players and supplement them with a couple of physical wingers that aren't afraid to go to the net. They wouldn't have to worry about " last ditch efforts "
Why does it suck more to suck in Toronto than other cities?
Forecheck! Pressure! Too easy to play against man.
Bench the Core Four. You're losing the series anyway, might as well send a positive message to the fans.
They need to somehow help the Dmen with the Panthers fore-check. Drop another forward back if you have to.
Game 4. No expectation. Just going to watch them figure skate around the arena.
It's time for "Attack Mode game plan ", stay with the 11-7 lineup. If the final outcome is a 8-6, so be it. Line combo's that were effective once upon a time, Matthews with Nylander and Jankrok ( brings more offensive options then Bunting), O'Reilly with Marner and Tavares ( less defensive responsibilities on the wall). Rotate remaining 5 fwds in any combo, while keeping the above mentioned 2 lines intact. Roll with Rotation of 3 lines NOT 4. Win/improve Neutral Zone puck battles, very least be even ( gm 3-Fla dominated 13-3). Better in "chasing down offensive Rebounds"-2nd shots, especially by the Leafs 3rd high slot fwd. "Attack mode " Leafs to play more on their toes and put Fla on their heels approach. Go Leafs Go
At this point it just doesn’t matter any more. They’re done, no miracle comeback.
Absolutely
