海角社区官网Maple Leafs fans have been here before.聽
Remember the Game 7 collapse in 2013? Then again in 2018? Oh, and again in 2019. And now another year to the list: 2024.
Despite an impressive rally from a 3-1 series deficit to even the series, the Leafs couldn’t exorcise their demons against the Boston Bruins and ultimately聽fell short in overtime of Game 7 in Boston.聽It was the sixth straight Game 7 loss for Toronto.聽
Obviously, emotions were high immediately after the game, and as always, fans took to social media to vent their frustrations with the team, with many saying it’s time to finally dismantle the “Shanaplan.”聽
Some online reactions on the Leafs聽
Some to quick to point out that the Leafs have really struggled in Game 7s, especially against the Big Bad Bruins:聽
Losing to the same team in Game 7 for the 4th time in the last decade is insane馃拃

The Leafs have lost their seventh consecutive winner-take-all playoff game.
鈥 JFresh (@JFreshHockey)
Using implied probability based on betting lines at the time, there was about a 1 in 167 chance of them having lost every single one of those games.
So lose once again and once again in a game 7鈥 soooooooooo what do you do with this team? Honest question. Keep it going and tinker or are you making major moves?

Others are calling for a major shakeup in the Leafs organization. Is this the end of Brendan Shanahan? Should they fire head coach Sheldon Keefe? Should they trade Mitch Marner?聽
Great series but leafs need a major shakeup. Coach & a few of our top players need to go. Leaf fans can鈥檛 live the same old story over and over and over every single year. Time for change

鈥 Fish (@feedthefish79)
- What a gut punch
- Leafs played great D
- Goodbye Keefe
- Special teams lost series
- Core 4 doesn鈥檛 work
- Marner has lost market
- Woll is legit number 1
- Tear up Shanaplan
- Big-time changes required
- This feeling sucks
- Get to work Treliving
-Fire Shanahan.
鈥 Inside Leafs (@InsideLeafs)
-Fire the entire coaching staff.
-Trade Marner (bully him into waiving his NMC).
-Rebuild the entire blueline
-Cut Bert loose - he was useless against Boston.
-Re-sign Domi
-Send Samsonov to Syberia
I don't ever want to see Mitch Marner play for the Maple Leafs ever again. I don't care about the fact that he scores 90 points. Please trade him for a haul and build a winning team.

Sometimes you don’t have much to say other than “this sucks.”聽
The pain is real鈥 the frustration is real
鈥 DartGuy (@LeafsMaz20)
This sucks, no two ways around it
But I鈥檓 proud of the effort, despite coming up short, the team & should hold their heads high. Somebody has to win & somebody has to lose鈥 just sucks it鈥檚 us losing again.
Heartbreaking.

Not everyone was so negative though, including Mayor Olivia Chow. As they say, there’s “always next year.”聽
fans鈥 the sun still came up this morning.
鈥 Andy Campbell (@fredcityandy)
You鈥檒l be okay.
Just get rid of Keefe, Tavares, Marner and a few other cement blocks鈥 and get a real goalie鈥 and you鈥檒l be okay.
Disappointed.

Let鈥檚 not give up.
Next year.
