Why do we do it to ourselves? Every year this happens and I spend the summer genuinely contemplating just...not paying attention anymore. Then preseason starts and I find myself watching every fucking game, only for this to happen again.

Am I a masochist? I think I might be a masochist.

Like they're playing shorthanded. It's insane. Credit to Florida, they're pushing hard, but...

Fuck me. They just haven't shown they have what it takes.

Still hoping for a miracle, but...it's faint at this point.

Honestly. The rare times they actually managed to get into the zone, it was like they were playing shorthanded. How many good looking passes were thrown to an area where a Leaf *should've* been waiting for it, and there was nobody home?

Maddening.

It'd be nice just to see them not look like an AHL team the rest of way.

That was my initial reaction, but apparently not?

LOUDER!

...and that one, too. 🤬🤬🤬

It was a great shot, but you want Woll to have that one.

Mikkola definitely oughta get 4 for that...

Game 5 should remind you they still can be, but yeah... They've bounced back well so far.

Barring any evidence to the contrary, I don't know what else we *could* do.

I'm giving *you* credit for calling them out. I'm pretty sure Berube showed them all your post on the bench and they realized they were letting you down. That was the motivation they needed 🤷

That's unfair to Auston. He's been penned in most of the game (like all of them) but had a couple of flashes in the O-zone that make me think he might be feeling it.

The other good news is how dialed in Woll has looked so far.

I mean...that, and get the writers of Andor to replace the terrible writers (especially George Lucas) they've got writing absolutely anything they're working on.

I wish I had your confidence, but oh baby!

Fuckers better pull it out in Toronto now...😬
