Great news for Toronto fans. They've now won 7 of their last 8, have a terrific, intelligent head coach, a savvy GM and look to be real contenders this season. #Raptors.

But it's a mere coincidence that #Marner was allowed to bolt as a free agent. Coincidence. #Leafs
This is the Maple Leafs' first five game losing streak since April 2021, a span of more than 4.5 years.

They had only done it three times in the 10 seasons of the Matthews era before now.

The Maple #Leafs played much better with actual effort and some cohesion, but a loss is a loss, 3-2 to the #Blackhawks. Toronto's winless streak is now 5. Buds' three stars? #Woll, #Robertson and #Cowan.
November 16, 2025 at 3:00 AM
On this #Leafs effort? #Raptors 129 #Pacers 111.

Most of the #Leafs have at least skated harder and with an inkling of purpose. They've even made a handful of short, clever passes. But ALWAYS giving away the points without closing on these guys will kill you, as it did on the #Blackhawks' third goal. 3-2 Chicago with 3 minutes left in regulation.
November 16, 2025 at 2:49 AM
And a blatant giveaway by #Rielly, but #Woll makes the save. Geezuz. The two best #Leafs have been #Robertson and #Cowan - tenacity, speed and smarts.
November 16, 2025 at 2:39 AM
Morgan #Rielly... still a sieve on the #Leafs back end. My gawd, he's bad at defending. Toronto 2, Chicago 2 in the third.
November 16, 2025 at 2:29 AM
Nick #Robertson is a puck hound! He's one of the few bright lights on the #Leafs. 1-1 after 20 minutes in Chicago.
November 16, 2025 at 1:01 AM
You know that at least one of the three #Blackhawks forwards who once played for the #Leafs will score against Toronto tonight. #NHL

Again, every accusation is a confession. Gaslighting 101.
The America First guy has brought in 566 foreign workers during his 5 years in office to work at his companies instead of hiring Americans. And counting.

It's looking more and more likely that the #Leafs will be in on number one draft pick Gavin McKenna next June.

Yay!?!?

The only way I'd book a trip to Mexico or the Caribbean or South America, or Europe... or anywhere, really, is contingent on my travel NOT going anywhere near the United States. Thank you for your attention to this matter. #LaPaz

The #Oilers broadcast duo of Jack Michaels and Louie DeBrusk is BY FAR the best in the #NHL.
November 13, 2025 at 3:19 AM
Over the last decade, #Leafs management has not only drafted poorly, but traded away valuable picks for either temporary help, mediocre players or both. The #AHL Marlies don't have a single player that could bolster the big club right now. Thanks again, #Shanahan, #Dubas and #Treliving. #LeafsNation

Let's ponder: he's the most documented liar in history, a 34-times convicted felon, an adjudicated sexual offender, a malignant narcissist, and clearly suffering from dementia... and yet the US political and legal systems apparently have no way to remove him. #EpsteinFiles
November 13, 2025 at 12:16 AM
This #Leafs thing is a complete own-goal bonfire created by #Shanahan, #Dubas and #Treliving. @jtbourne.bsky.social made a great point about #Treliving's penchant for size, but failing to do proper due diligence on the actual grit of these big guys (see #Carlo, #Roy, #Joshua ).
November 12, 2025 at 9:59 PM
Nick is correct - it IS go time in #Leafsland. #Treliving & #Berube need to be shown the door. @jtbourne.bsky.social
November 12, 2025 at 9:51 PM
The #Leafs' addition of #Joshua, #Roy and #Maccelli have added very little to this season's team. It's yet another failure of GM Brad #Treliving.
November 12, 2025 at 2:54 AM
These 2025 #Leafs, under alleged 'tough guy' head coach Craig #Berube are about as soft as it gets. Can't hit, can't take hits and appear utterly confused about how to execute the game of hockey effectively. My gawd.
November 12, 2025 at 2:33 AM
Hey #Leafs Captain Auston #Matthews... take a hit, FFS. Or at least keep your wits about you. Geezuz. Are you gone for a week now? A month? Six weeks? #LeafsNation #LeafsHotStove
November 12, 2025 at 1:48 AM
It's obvious that #Leafs head coach Craig #Berube never practices 5 on 4s or 5 on 3s.... or really anything constructive. What a mess.
November 12, 2025 at 1:45 AM
How disorganized and disconnected are the 'veteran' #Leafs right now? They actually dump in the puck... on the power play. My gawd. #Berube #LeafsNation #LeafsHotStove
November 12, 2025 at 1:41 AM
The hockey gawds were with the #Oilers tonight, scoring the tying goal on a fluky deflection over the shoulder of the #BlueJackets goalie. OT
November 11, 2025 at 4:21 AM
It may be time for the Edmonton #Oilers and Toronto Maple #Leafs to pull off a multi-player trade. Both teams need to be shaken out of their complacency. #NHL #OilersNation #LeafsNation
November 11, 2025 at 3:09 AM
Another embarrassing #Leafs lack of effort. Just a dismal, disconnected display by this overpaid collection. No teamwork, no coaching, and no ability to defend. Outscored 10-7 AT HOME this weekend.
