Leafs @ Islanders - Nov. 13th, 7:00pm - SN, Fan 590

Worst special teams of all time.  PP and PK are awful.  They look lost on both.  No one knows where to be. 

Also, GOAT has no business on the PK. He just can?t skate well enough.  He is way too slow to make any impact.

So it's about to be 5-2
Nah, not even the Leafs PK is pathetic enough to give up 3 PP goals to the Islanders. Right? Right? Guess we'll find out.
 
Hard to be disappointed when it?s wholly predictable.  This was always gonna be the outcome. 

Nylander.  Lazy.  Just flat out lazy.

Time to fire McFarland into the sun.  And attach the PKers to him.
Not blaming him but Rielly on the PK just doesn't work. Throw in a slice of CC and it's been a disaster.

Rielly has been bad this year defensively.

A lot of this garbage is on Dubas.  His work in the offseason gets a D from me.

Isles are really moving around on the PP. Why are we so shit at it?

It?s Babcock.  He is the one.  Brought in new coaches but it appears he isn?t letting them coach.

They need to split him away from Ceci
 
Good thing the Isles kind of went into a "prevent defense" mode on that PP. The Leafs played it better but the Isles seemed content to just bleed the clock.

Yes and no on the Dubas front. Coaching staff and the way they use players gets a huge minus for me. Rielly didn't kill penalties last year, he does now and it's been a failure. The PP1 unit has been bad yet they haven't tired Barrie on it yet who is not being used like he should. Petan is called up from Marlies and goes on PP2... What? Not good enough for your team but the PP? Why haven't they tried Mikheyev on the PP?

I?m done.  This team is just not good

I think Leaf fans should face the fact that the rebuild has failed.  I hate to say it, but Eugene Melnyk was right.  The Leafs forgot about the defence.  You know what really sucks?  It was Lou's decision to go out and get Andersen that probably torpedoed the rebuild more than anything else.
 
Just spitballing here, how many games in a row would the leafs need to lose for Babcock to lose his job?  What?s the breaking point?  They won?t make the playoffs at this rate. 

20 games, 15 of them trying to come from behind.  Babcock cannot get this team started on time.  They have quit on him.
