With the Boston Bruins leading the series 3-1, the Toronto Maple Leafs are going to have a difficult time trying to dig themselves out of the hole to advance past the first round of playoffs. Yet, the team was met with more than the frustration of their fans, as a former member of the team ripped into their game after their most recent loss.
In a recent interview on The Leafs Nation After Dark, former Philadelphia Flyers and Toronto Maple Leafs left-winger Jay Rosehill demolished the team for their terrible play and attitude. Rosehill accused the team of not caring about the game's stakes.
After ripping into the whole team, Rosehill directed his verbal attacks on Mitch Marner. Instead of belittling his style of play, he tore into the Leafs right-winger for his character.
Though Rosehill is exceedingly harsh on the players and vulgar in his delivery, most Toronto Maple Leafs followers tend to agree with him. The fanbase is clearly tired of seeing a high-potential team fail at almost every opportunity they receive.
The Bruins and Maple Leafs will play the fifth game in their series tomorrow evening at TD Garden in Boston. If Toronto does not want to be eliminated from the playoffs, they may just need to take note of Rosehill's frustrations.
