Maybe get some solid defensemen and a good goaltender. Getting rid of Matthews would be a start.They will never win a cup with him, I don't care how many goals he scores.
Sheldon Keefe vs. Jim Montgomery is like Robert Saleh vs. Andy Reid. Brad Treliving had the opportunity to let Keefe go but he added a bonus season to his contract. The Core-4 and Morgan Rielly love Keefe because they control him like a minuette!
Not gonna lie the question of how to wake up the Scotia bank arena has to be the stupidest question I’ve ever heard on this podcast. Carbon tax at an all time high gas being nearly $1.80 a litre, a tall can of beer costing $18… I bought a hot dog and a beer for myself and my girlfriend in 2017 at a regular season leafs game and it was just under $55. On top of it all selling nose bleed tickets above $500. It’s obvious the real fans can’t afford it.
They will price themselves right out the door!The common,Guy,will not be able to afford it!You gotta eat and have shelter!The only one’s getting rich are the owners and players,disgusting,in every sport,!
Leafs could have won the game(3) if Samsonov didn’t give up 2 bad goals. We need a better goaltender next playoffs. Marner just needs to pass the puck quickly instead of holding it and dance around.
Agree. I was extremely angered by his play last game. The Leafs played well except the awful powerplay. They need more offense but the goalie has been unacceptable in two games.
@@georgebenevides that’s what I said, I’m only pissed about the jt call at the end of the game, he’s being held falls and takes out a player and gets the penalty, that was a garbage call
Glad Burkie still close to Tree. He's a smart hockey guy that always makes sense. A nice counterance to the silly Toronto media and often moronic fans as these comments show.
No more ranting! Get Mathews to Edmonton with Hyman & bring the cup back to Canada! Simply add a touch if Kessel for insurance 👍he knows how to collect rings! Get it done!
Hey guys, great channel and epic show as always. Berkey is always an amazing guest although my my comment is addressing the first minute of the show, so I didn't hear too much from him. Rosie, I love you and I normally love your takes, but I have to disagree with this one. Do you actually think that Leaf's Nation thinks this team is a playoff team? I don't think so at all! I see the exact same problems we we have had for years. Defense, goaltending and snot. We have a little bit more of it, but not enough of it. Leafs nation is in frigging panic mode right now because we see that we are struggling against this Boston as we always do. I really don't think the Leafs are a playoff team at all. We're closer than we have been in the past few years, but we are not there yet at all. Rosie, I know you were an NHLer and I was not, but I can't see how you make that statement. Yes they've got Bertuzzi, Reeves and Domi, but is it working? They are all looking better in the last week or so, but are they enough to get our hoity-toity top four through the gauntlet? I don't know. For example, why didn't somebody go out and address Charlie McAvoy after he messed around with Austin Matthews. He is our Superstar and nobody did anything. I'm 64 years old and I've played hockey since I was five; put me on the goddamn ice. I'll go out and I will take care of it. I wouldn't win the fight, but he'll know he's been in one... If I were Sheldon Keefe I would have told Ryan Reeves to go out and put McAvoy down hard. Make sure it's a clean hit and don't take a penalty, but pound him into the ground. That's what we got him for. Nothing else. The message needs to be: mess with our Superstar even a tiny bit, and you get stretchered off the ice. It's as simple as that. It's time to stop playing these teams with kid gloves, but I simply don't think we are built for it, yet. Sorry...
TOR's advantage was fwrd depth in players who can finish at NHL level, with mcmann a surprise addition, and rbrtsn improving w/ every game to point where a starter. that's 8, unheard of in the cap era. Trev got some D who can clear the front of the net, but equally big problem was getting trapped in their own end. of course klingberg was supposed to be that shot from the point. how/ why did Ott get chychrun for free?
Leaf nation doesn’t do their homework outside toronto enough. Frederic is quicker than you think and has a deceptively good snipe. If he played in the top 6 he’d be close to 30 goals.
First thing leafs doing wrong is on the power play drop passing the puck 3-4times trying to gain entry into O-zone then can't gain entry 3-4 drop passes 40seconds off the 2 minute power play leads to 1 maybe 2 shots on net. Nick Robertson gains entry with speed dumps it in and goes hard after it. Matthews can't deke anyone out if his life depends on it..
When is a 40 goal scorer out of the line and no one is that concerned? In Toronto where the crowd is so sophisticated that it is no big deal. The team has made their money on regular season and nobody expects them to go far in the playoffs.
Burkie is not being truthful in his assessment of Marner because he is friends with Tre and also a fan. There is no sense in piling on the criticism . Marner sucks in the playoffs, always makes the play of least resistance , and unless he proves us otherwise this year we should work to use the cap space on a D-Man.
@andrewphilips2457 Piling up points when the going is good is not the point of winning playoff games. He’s afraid to get hit. What has 8 years of Marner given you as far as playoff round wins? His cap is waaaay too high, and would be better spent on a number one Dman.
@@scatterthewinds3126 I watch every game. Leafs were a weak goal from going into over time. Marner fed a tap in goal. We're missing 2 key players. To think that any one player is responsible is just ridiculous. It was a super close game. Boston is no easy win, they could easily win the Stanley cup as much as any top team... IF they get a hot goalie like they have been. If we had a hot goalie we would be up to 2-1. Close tough play off hockey. Leafs have been very good.
@@andrewphilips2457 Marner racking up points in one playoff game then becoming a ghost for the rest of the series isn't good enough for an 11M dollar player. 4 points in his last 8 playoff games. Lazy turnovers in the O-zone, blown assignments, bailing because he's scared of getting hit, sloppy passing, the list goes on.. If you think the Leafs have played well this series, you're beyond delusional. This is a far weaker Bruins team than they were last season, whoever wins this round is going to get mopped by Florida.
As for the fanbase at the home games: it’s only natural, that the culture of defeatism within the team and organization, seeps into the fanbase as well. Aftetall, they are innocent victims in this heinous tragedy too.
If anyone truly thinks the Leafs are built for the playoffs, then they are delusional. Subpar power play, average defence, average goaltending and lack of depth. What part of the aforementioned is conducive with winning a Stanley Cup? Smh.
You know,anyone who has ever played the sport,and I did for twenty years,not at the pro level,knows your gonna get hit,I don’t think anyone Ike’s to get hit,but it is part of the sport,some guys take it better then others,and some guys ,the fear of God is put into them by a hit,or a few hits!To chastise,a guy for being not want to be hit,well I don’t know!Sometimes you know your gonna get ran over,but to make the play you do it!But to say you would take the hit,because your a tough guy,is assinine!Walk a mile in my shoes!
The leafs are so used to playing golf this time of year and thinks it’s normal,, Same thing since 1967 and you’ll be 2067 will be saying the same same thing
Fredrick is a really good young player!! 18 Goals 22 Assist and won the Bruins seventh player award. He’s a damn good player and is always contributing to the Bruins success. He’s not just some bum as described in this video!!
@@Eazy-Rider not even a little!! kind of sick and tired of these fans talking about how much better of a team leaves are, show it before you talk about it
Because he decided to build a team by trading away picks rather than drafting players. Imported players from college instead and aside from Bozak none of the players he brought in made a difference. Made good trades but built the team the wrong way. I did not like trading the picks for Kessel because the team was bad. His biggest problem? Building a team without a real first line center. It didn’t work.
Marner does not show up in the playoffs and it's not just this season. Burke if you want to break up the core four somehow but are not sure then you don't want to? Marner and Tavares are the two options.
He’s talking in circles. “They need to break up the core 4”. I told Tree he had to sign Nylander and now they have to protect and sign Marner ‘protect the asset’ ! He’s right about the goaltending tho’. After overpaying most of their top scorers they have no money to spend on a better D. I’ve always liked Reilly but he is not the same effective player he was in last years playoffs. If you watch the other series and compare some of the teams to the Leafs the GLARING shortages on D and in goal are super evident. I predicted this long term ineffectivity when they overpaid for Tavares. ALSO, I’ve had migraines and believe me, the LAST THING you feel like doing is even putting on skates and practicing. It might just be something else !
The cap is going up $4 million but the big 4 will gobble up all that. Mathews and Willy gobbled up most of it already. Also, the cap goes up for all the teams. Not just for the Leafs. This guy is a joke.
Hey guys, I already left a comment on this show but now that Burkey's talking, I've got to leave another one... Has there been any indication at all that Mitch Marner is hurt? To me, it looks like he is hurt. I'm basing this on that one very egregious play where he went to the other side of the opposing player player instead of engaging to get the puck. He's never been an overly physical player, but I have seen him make that play and hit the opposing player many many times. Could he be hurt?
I agree much more with Burky than I don’t. His take on Marner not being soft though…he knows that he’s the guy who wears 16, right? He’s softer than baby 💩. He’s triple ply. He sleeps on the floor and not a bed because his whole body is a 6 foot tall pillow. If he goes to the gym, he does yoga, then a bit of cardio just to sprint by the weights and the strength coach because he doesn’t want to get wrinkles in his hands from holding weights.
Who else can afford a playoff ticket then a corporate type, a wealthy, sophisticated suit? Want more noise, more Winnipeg style, open up more tickets to youth, more blue collar types! Go Leafs Go
matthews is only good for his personnal stats during regular season....NOTHING TO SHOW comes Playoffs Times..!!!!...and the toronto front desk hasn't figured that one out yet..?????????...must sucks to be a leafs fan..!!!!!
Beer prices go up and fans get quieter. Don’t blame your fans, lower the prices of beer. And stop blaming Sammy for game 3 loss when our leafs can’t score on 5 power plays
‘Burkie’ is looking his age. I was happy when he came to the Leafs but the team just didn’t have the look he promised. Now he’s blaming the coach for the players he brought in ?
One more loss and they are done. They need to win every game to stay alive. The refs will fade into the background if they can put together a winning streak. Yes their place in the standings proves they are a playoff team. There is only one winner and nothing is certain.
Is there a different Mitch Marner That I am not privy to. I know the great passing Marner BUT the Marner who isn't afraid to mix it up and get his nose dirty???? Who dat ?
Its clear Marner is playing hurt, was out late in the season and came back too early with a couple games left to try and get ready for the playoffs, 200% he is playing hurt
toronto has been outscored 11-6 and 1 for 11 on power play so something with the prevent side is struggling... poor Defence and goaltending needs to be ungraded obviously but with so much of the cap space is in forwards and it shows... I question the value from Tavares with his fat salary verses Marchand at $5M ..give me Marchand any day of the week...
He won a cup with a team he put the finishing touches on. He destroyed the Leafs, Pens and Flames. He has little to no respect from other nhl execs and no one should listen to a darn thing he says
That’s so right about the Bad Bruins, see what’s going on with them, open your eyes Referees, wake up hey! Be Game 4 Leafs just hope you do it right this time, don’t fall in to a big hole 🕳️, Go Leafs Go guys, don’t freeze 🥶 neither, 👏👏💙💙🏒🥅🏒🇨🇦💙💙👍

Yes, I agree with you. Taking overpaid Erik Karlsson from the Sharks was a prime example.
What this team needs is a coach that can read the game and make changes as well as develop a system for their end of the ice.

He won a cup with a team he put the finishing touches on. He destroyed the Leafs, Pens and Flames. He has little to no respect from other nhl execs and no one should listen to a darn thing he says
Burke is starting to slurr
He’s been a pompous blowhard his whole career. He gets no respect from other executives and it’s beyond belief anyone listens to his takes.
Nylander had a really bad finish to his season because he landed a big contract and now he could care less.
