“They don’t want it. They don’t skate, they don’t score, they don’t hit, they don’t fight, they float. They don’t hate to lose.”

The leafiest outcome would be them tying it up only to lose in game 7

pure Steve depression until the pizza

The Leafs and finding new devastating ways to lose in the playoffs, name a more iconic duo

Speaking of O'Reilly being susceptible to the locker room bad vibes - same thing in buffalo. different bad vibes but he's for sure impacted by the guys around him

Bennett, Tkachuck and Cousins have shook the leafs core, Theyre playing like they just got their ass kicked by the school bully and they came back for lunch money the next day/game

And this is the Kraken without McCann or Burakovsky!

Thanks, I needed a laugh to start this show. No matter how bad, or whatever, we all need to remember that it's just a game folks.

“Don’t do that please, this is a brand new table” 😂😂😂

Jesse becoming an eye test guy, absolutely losing his mind here

The 52:13 joke about the Toronto couples and the rings was a good joke, I laughed :) And, go habs go!

I think Dubas probably keeps his job at the end of the year, although it might only be a short extension. Keefe on the other hand has coached his way out the door in my opinion, all of his systems were easily solved in both rounds and yet he doesn't seem to make any adjustments, let alone have a real backup plan. The best example is the drop-pass focused breakout is getting torn apart by Florida, so what do we do? Ice the puck repeatedly while trying for low-percentage stretch passes... That's all we've got? REALLY?!

I’m honestly scared of what this team will look like next year.

I miss the panego pizza presents in the intro

been waiting for this pod all day 😂

Drove a work van around Toronto with 435,000km on it. It burned oil, the brakes cut out, the rear leaf spring broke through the floor, and the back door didn't lock. I kinda miss it

It hurts. The pain is real. Irrational, yet very real. But there was solace to be found in this episode of commiseration. Thank you, kind sirs.

When Adam 1st mentioned Pizza i thought Panago was coming back

I’m happy Steve is FINALLY losing his blinders on the Kraken! CPA last night was the loudest I’ve heard an arena in a very long time!!!

The "which team shouldn't get the #1 pick" segment aged like milk immediately. I'm surprised none of you mentioned Kyle Beach

Adam absolutely nailed and summed up exactly how I feel just before the first segment ended

I know that this would be miraculous but what a story if the Leafs had a comeback. I know…..I’m rolling my eyes as I write this.

Going from an ASMR video to this will be intense.

Well, the Blackhawks got Bedard...One wonders whether the reaction to Game 4 or the Blackhawks getting Bedard will be the more explosive reaction in the next podcast.

It’s good to see these guys continue after all these years still supporting Toronto amateur hockey. Good on ya guys 😂

Been waiting for this since the game ended

That blue lipstick bit completely jinxed leaf’s nation. Damn box head

Biggest american fan reporting for duty😂

The curse is the blue lipstick hahah

The Pinkerton/MTG factoid might be my most favorite tidbit of information I've ever heard on this pod

Suffering for a full year really sucks fans want a reason to be happy for once i think we deserve it.

Core memory unlocked from Steve’s shirt!

37:11, that was an all-time "yeah" from Jesse.

There are dirty areas on the ice.....the Leafs top 6 have no interest in going to any of them.

Definitely wasn't me, refreshing for 45 minutes for this one... 😂

I think all the vitriol towards the Leaf fans is stupid. They root for their team. Passionately. They haven't a meaningful Playoff run since the early 90s. But because they are upset that their team is underperforming and are a large vocal group they are vilified. They're fans. Plus no one criticizes their favorite team like Leaf fans. Do the fans of the Oilers forget that their team was a diaper fire not that long ago. Vancouver=Circus Calgary is a mess. Winnipeg cannibalizes themselves . Montreal is actually on a great trajectory but still picking high in the draft. I'm a guy on the outside as a 30yr+ Blackhawks fan that is ashamed of my favorite team for gross negligence in trying to sweep a sexual predator under the rug and the brainless mess that Stan Bowman vomited up. I get why people are turned off by Chicago. The Leafs and their fans get tomatoes thrown at them because they are numerous, vocal, and care about their team. It makes no sense to me.

Bobrovsky looked at Playoff Philip Grubauer and went "oh hey I can do that too"

Steven aggressively eating the Pizza Nova wing.

Keefe is definitely done here. I'm not sure how many times he needs to see this same story play out before realising playoff hockey is different. As for the players, its just a shame our two very best guys can never elevate their game when it matters. That equals failure every time. Other teams have stars that explode in the playoffs, ours trip over themselves. 9 years of the Shanaplan and we're frankly no closer to winning anything.

Question if anyone knows....how do I find the draft lottery on Sports Interaction?

1:21:00 The Montreal Canadiens did not improve their draft standing last year since they finished last, so they can still 'win' the lottery 2 more times in 5 years. The Devils, who picked second, (and now the Blackhawks) however are effected by the 5 year rule.

Man I take this Krakens team over the leafs any day of the week they are a pleasure to watch

i fell that the kinship with the Minnesota Wild growing by the second lol. I'm pulling for you guys as always. I love wathcing your team, and hate what I'm seeing right now because it is so familiar to me as a Wild fan.

Lol. Cant believe Marner after the game said... Got lots of looks, just not falling in!! Are you kidding me.

I couldnt even bring myself to watch the LFR

I love being in California and hearing these adds. Like “Damn, I should add a dip to my order. You know, from the pizza joint half a continent away from me.”

this cats knights final is gonna be nuts lol

This "gun to the earth" meme is my favourite.

The leafs were literally lucky against the lightning. Then the luck ran out

When you started the pizza sponsor part, Nova wasn't the company i was expecting. They're pretty good though.

They keep ranting and raving about the Kraken's depth: McCann has been skating and might be back soon.

My brother and I started using fiddlidipoo as a verb, which means to blow some huge great thing by some small but really bad other thing. Like, for example, the Bruins just fiddlidipooed the greatest season in NHL history.

Impressive how quick it's been forgotten and forgiven that the Canadiens drafted Logan Mailloux in the first round in 2021. How are they not up there with Chicago as the worst team to reward right now?

One more win together - before Leaf Core 4 get smart enough to destroy the Core 4 playoff disappointments. 😀 Go Leafs go!

A little bit of a nit pick about this episode, was the fooling around with the mic volumes too much. Its been happening for a few episodes now.

lol "why isn't a better guy ever the coach's guy?" Mitch Marner enters the chat

Absolutely insane that im hearing these guys talk about "bad behaviour" without even a whisper of the Chicago Blackhawks

"Who is Sam Bennett"? LoL. The real one!

Congrats on the Pizza Nova sponsor!! I know the team that built and manages their website!!

got to have heart lots and lots of HEART!!!!

Honestly rather see you guys happy eating pizza then talking about the leafs. :)

Also unfortunately they have lost 4 games in a row once this season, the western road trip. VGK, SJS, LAK and ANA, they haven't lost 4 in regulation, but OT actually matters in the playoffs :(

Different between Toronto and Kraken is heart and balls

this is so funny. I know it’s schtick but it’s like SNL hockey. Meet the new boss same as the old boss. This is how this team has consistently played almost since the beginning. Consistency. That’s it. Plus, Florida is doing a really good job of mucking it up and BOB right now is bobbing:)

As a Sharks fan, watching the current Leafs seems very similiar to when the Sharks were at their peak.

Toronto was determined to win the absolute minimum number of games to make Toronto riot, which is 4😂

42:00 I'm pretty sure the Bruins didn't lose 3 consecutive games all season either, and I'm not sure if I should feel vindicated or more pissed off the deeper Florida goes.

At 1:10:05 I need to know who they picked out of CAR vs NJD and EDM vs VGK thanks 😂

Adam didn’t have to come at me that hard with the pre breakup 😢

Game 4 is not a do or die game. Game 3 was. Can they still do it? I believe they can. I believe in this team. But for the first time in my life, during the fifth game against Tampa, I said to my wife, "If they can't do this, I'm done. If they don't care about us enough to do this, then why should I care about them? If they don't win this series, I'll never watch another hockey game." And here we are. After round one was over, I thought, New York, Boston, Tampa, Colorado.... they're all gone.... all the Leafs roadblocks are gone. There is no way they don't win the Stanley Cup this year. And again, here we are. It's almost like they think winning the first round is enough for us. I said to someone today, they all collected their final paychecks the last week of the regular season. Maybe they don't like playing for free..... I love this team, but there isn't a single player that I love more than the team. They do not need a re-build. But something needs to be done. They grit and heart. They need a Doug Gilmour or a Wendell Clark. This summer, I would offer Auston Matthews for Matthew Tkachuk. I'd keep Marner because I believe if you put him on a line with two well trained chimpanzees, they'd both score, 30 goals. They'll never get value for Tavares, but I'd do what I could to get rid of his cap hit. And Murray is dead weight and I'd try to trade him for a 25 year old Giordano, if he even exists. This hockey club has done this before. Go Leafs.

So one thing about the Marner giveaway thing, the NHL apparently scores a turnover as a giveaway or a takeaway, not as both. So Marner’s giveaways must have been counted as panther’s takeaway’s. Make sense cuz the stats that get published come from the home arena scorekeeper.

If you were GM, would you execute a one-for-one trade, Marner for Tkachuk? I sure as hell would...

Bedard's going to the Windy City

The next 2 games I don't think they're playing to win the series, I think they need to play to keep the band together. Team is getting broken up unless the series puts up literally any fight

Back in October, the Leafs lost 4 games in a row, 2 being over time losses, Oct. 24th loss to Vegas, 27th- Sharks, 29th- Kings and 30th- Ducks

The Milkiest outcome would be Steve Dangle coming in as an e-bug and shutting Florida the f down. And then Steve chugging a galon of milk on live tv. Milky Leafs for the win!!!!!!!!!

I would lovethe story if woll comes in and wins the series. A rookie goaltender saving the day would be the story of the century

Mitch Marner saying you can’t get frustrated.. has apparently never needed something enough to understand there needs to be a feeling of added pressure or a “frustrated” situation to change. We haven’t brought up the definition of insanity why?

Speaking of changes, IF they lose in game 4! If you can't move Tavares do you stripe his C? We talk about the team having no emotion I don't know if I've ever even seen him blink!

Let them eat, Adam Wylde!

Steve Avery called it as well ~

Confirm on John Lester lol loved him on the Cubs tho

1:31:05 - The face of someone who just wants to scream

The guys monkey-pawed Bedard to the Blackhawks. Good job guys!

Those Marner and Matthews quotes just directly speak to the sport science or psychology going in with the Leafs. Like it has to, RIGHT?

Adam is like the DEVIL 🤣🤣🤣 Pizza and Wings!

1:27:00 Dear Jesse, Your payment is in the mail. Sincerely, This Habs fan 😂

Here's a thought. The defense pairings aren't working. How about maybe um, we switch it? Rielly - Brodie Gustafsson - Holl Gio - Mccabe

Ask the team who gets the first pick if they think the lottery is unfair, haha!

I'm leaving this comment everywhere because no one is talking about it: Florida is beating Toronto because of the NEUTRAL ZONE. End. Of. Story. FLORIDA OWNS THE NEUTRAL ZONE BECAUSE KEEFE REFUSES TO LOCK OR TRAP. THAT has lost Toronto this series.

There are many ways to win a series. They just chose the toughest.

Adam says it's like a break up we know is coming...like in Seinfeld where Kramer invites George to Pomodoro's to break up for with him for Allison...LOL...The Leafs have just invited us to Pomodoro's!!!!

We want Florida 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Let's add this to "It was 3-1"

In 9 years, the last Leafs cup is eligible for seniors pension.

Let em eat!

You know steve feels like an episode of the twilight zone .

Jesse yelling about analytics being bad while claiming they exist for a purpose that they 100% are not actually designed for is a *chef's kiss*

Goaltending is propelling the Panthers. Bob is finally stopping the high shots, challenging the Leafs. He has flipped a switch.

Negative or not, this fan base has been fairly positive to the point of delusion with their defense of Dubas and the Core until this point. You guys really hung in there with them and are a great fanbase.

50:45, so real
