Sid gets passionate about telling Maple Leafs fans to chill out after a pre-season win, even though John Tavares showed the fans what he's made of.

[@mr.romaro3422]

Maybe here. But definitely not in the playoffs when he thought the leafs would take Boston midway though the series

[@joeypereira7047]

@@mr.romaro3422 leafs lost the series because of 3 things. Kadri's suspension and Babcock mismanagement of his players minutes, and bad PP setup. If Kadri doesn't get suspended then, you have the kadri line up against the Bergeron line, opening up both the Matthew's line and Tavaras's line. Like in game one. Matthew's didnt play as many minutes as he should have, after scoring 5 goals in the final 6 games, adding an assist. Matthew's and Marner should have been switched sides on the PP, so both could get their shots off right away. One timers by Matthew's would have given the leafs a much better PP. Marner could either pass across to Matthew's, sent it to the net or passed it back to Reilly for the one timer with Kadri and Tavaras in front of the net. But none of this happened and to make matters worse, the so called coach, has their leading goal scorer and point producer is on the bench with 5 minutes left, down 3-1, playing 14:58 of ice-time the entire game, at that point, with Hyman on the ice playing on one leg, its s miracle he played at all. Then puts Matthew's out for 2:40 of the last 3 minutes, when Boston made 4-1, with him on the bench. That's why they lost, horrible coaching and kadris suspension.

[@TheMontcan]

Like many of Sid's inane rants, I don't understand the point. Talking about 1967 like it has any relevance to what's happening right now. And I grew up a Habs fan. Yeah, Leafs Twitter could probably relax a bit with the parade routes, but talking about this incredibly talented, deep organization, with a great front office and the best coach in the league, like it's still being run into the ground is dumb. Plain and simple. Leafs fans are excited and they should be. They're a very good team.

[@pathocrat]

People like this think their cynicism makes them sound more knowledgeable.

[@TheMontcan]

@@pathocrat I'd also like to point out, they've discovered it's a mighty fine way of getting clicks and attention. Tim's reasonable outlook is enough for sporting purists but mainstream media latches on to an Ice Dancing rant or 11 minutes bashing a team's fans for being fans.

[@EdwardLiuWork]

You mean just like how the Oilers were planning the parade after drafting Yakupov and had the greatest "core" in the NHL? Or how about when they drafted Mcdavid after taking Draisaitl the year before. Or maybe Buffalo after taking Eichel 1 year after taking Reinhart. The point is, accomplish something before getting overly excited. Of course being excited is inevitable, but SOME, not ALL leaf fans are already talking as if winning a cup is going to happen. The leafs still havnt gone out of the first round yet. Also, you forget that Sid is a TV personality. This is all part of the script, and people are watching.

[@TheMontcan]

@@EdwardLiuWork and I understand and agree with that, but talking about the past as if this current group can change it is dumb. Also, it's been two Playoffs for this Leafs team. The first they had little expectation and lost in 6 in the first one, and last year they lost in 7. They're young and improving.

Am I reading this correctly? You are implicitly saying Habs fans are unable to guage talent not in their jerseys?

No, because of the Leafs fans (who make up a large percentage of the Canadian population) who are irrational and think their team is a straight shot to the cup. Could they win? Sure. Would I be happy if they won? Absolutely. But I'm not going to kid myself by suggesting that Tampa, Boston, Pittsburgh, Washington, Nashville, Winnipeg, San Jose, Vegas, etc etc etc will just roll over and die. All those teams will be competitors too, and the Leafs will have to be better than all of them. You're just gonna end up hurting yourselves. What if the Leafs lose in the first round again? You'll be crushed. Look at this analytically. Believe you can win, hope you can win, but at the end of the day realize that that's not the only option.

I watched the Leafs go to the conference final against the Carolina Hurricanes and the deciding factor as I remember it was goaltending and youth. This Leafs team has a player who could out score Mats Sundin, no they have two players who could out score Mats, wait maybe even three so early 2000’s was fun exciting but not disappointing. I was proud of those old guys for getting that far. Now we have Morgan Rielly in the back end. Zaitzev, Sandin, and Liljegren. I don’t know what to be worried about for defence. Syd is hurt by the past. One he has experienced longer than me being born in 1988. But this does seem a lot different, if not on par with that leafs team at the beginning of the millennia.

[@junkim5853]

All of those guys are puck moving d man and none are tough stay at home d man or elite two way d man. Liljegren may become an elite d man but he ain't going to be that bone crushing d the Leafs would love to have. Imagine if we had a guy that can be a Pronger 2.0.

Most coaches in the NHL never see the finals let alone win a Cup so I’m failing to see your attempt at a point. He was a great coach in Anaheim and an even better coach in Detroit. Hopefully he continues the trend. Unfortunately the mouth-breathers from other fan bases are so blinded by their disliking of the Leafs that Babcock became “overrated” the minute he landed in Toronto. “I hate the LAFFS! 1967 FOREVER!! Ohh something about the Leafs has been posted online. I gotta pay attention to it.” In your head much? Pretty sad, kiddo.

[@kylamvickers3290]

we've had no hope and a terrible team forever, are we not allowed to be excited about finally having something worth turning on tv?

[@junkim5853]

we have been excited about this since 1967 and before Shanahan we had always said maybe next year. Most Leafs fans keep saying how we will beat the Bruins with ease in the playoffs and how they are so old when in reality their roster was younger, tougher and just as fast as us. We lost and so many Leafs fans were wrong. Now I don't think getting a top right handed d man is necessary but this team certainly could have brought more toughness to this team and sign a guy like Maroon and Dehaan or someone else. Hopefully Ozhiganov and Borgman can actually make the team and play amazing because these guys are probably among the few that can play good solid defense, speed, size, grit, and toughness.

@@junkim5853 we lost because kadri was suspended. They were the shutdown line and we easily beat Boston in game 1 and that's because The Tavaras line and Matthew's line could go on the offence.

In 93 Kerry Fraser should have called a 5 minute major and game misconduct, those were the rules for high sticking and drawing blood. The score was 3-3 with just over 6 minutes left, after Wendel scored 3 straight goals to tie the game. Toronto had one of the best pp that year. Gretzky should have been kicked out. The leafs were up 3-2 in the series. The leafs would have scored on that pp and probably would have scored a couple. But it was gretzky and who scored the goal in OT? Gretzky did. It would have been Toronto and Montreal in the finals. But no, they "missed" the call and L.A got swept in the finals. You're a joke sid. Stop trying to build a non leaf fanbase.

Mason Zikman I mean they haven't won in almost 15 years. The playoff series win drought would be in high school

[@shivnazbains9781]

Mason Zikman you do have a fair point there

[@aliceinwonder2106]

This aged well

[@ironseguin9838]

I'd say go wild and cheer for your team, hype them up and be happy for them. The only thing is though, don't overhype them, it only makes it tougher if things go south.

[@Bouts12]

As a non-Leaf fan who lives in Toronto he’s right about Leafs fans overhyping things. A month into last season I saw some leaf website say that they were the “best team in the NHL”. It’s ridiculous. The Leafs still have work to do before they can be a legit Cup contender.

[@user-kf7fv2dj7z]

Sorry. Leafs fans (regular hockey fans as well )deserves to be happy and very overjoyed about Leafs players and their organization. They should be. They are ones putting money into these owners and gm pockets . They are fun to watch and moving in a great direction with unbelievable talented players ..They are a very damn special team..Leafs can be more dominant in next 2-3 years with 1-2 new blue liners on the D Corp..

[@MQA-hc1gt]

Once again, Tim is the voice of reason on this show LOL I still love ya Sid, but you're wrong and you'll see why. All the talk about 1967... this team broke a franchise record for points just a few months ago and ADDED a franchise player in his prime. FOH.

[@tma450]

Ha

[@boozin12]

2021 what do you say now?

[@tattooedleo9969]

I am from Canada and am a die hard Islanders fan. Losing Tavares stung so bad but we will be fine without him. However my utter contempt for dislike for the Toronto Maple Leafs has grown so much. I love what Sid is saying here

[@shuozhang6947]

I'm a tampa bay fan but sid should really get this; toronto has not exactly been the best team in a long while but now they have hope and players. their fans should be happy, not the other way around, really got to chill sid

[@bibeauxxx]

Wow... Im pretty sure people aren t excited because of the pre-season game result but because hockey is back and we are genuinely ready to continue our 'winning' ways this season... You know what s worse than listening to leafs fans.... the Toronto Media... Sid you are a joke!

[@brandonbari40]

Turns out he had a point

[@stefancampagna4299]

L:osers E:ven A:fter F:ifty S:easons 1967.

[@wayneellis7068]

Sid loves to hear himself talk........his rant is all show and hes such an expert on hockey i must have missed the NHL team he played for,coached or was GM for......Sid the expert???

[@JhrtsLens]

Wayne Ellis bro he said the raptors wouldn’t win the eastern conference finals

[@PhilTheThrill2828]

"so far away from winning a series" uh, Sid. They were 1 game away last year.

[@karnak333]

If you don't think this team has a chance for the cup, then you don't know hockey. You just don't, Sid. And people aren't really excited for the preseason, it's just that Tavares signing hype seeping over.

[@phillydefer24]

They really arent a cup contender .. can they win a round or 2 sure ... but in the end this horrible defence core will no doubt cost them in the playoffs .... just think of washington these past years... they were all offence no defence and whered that get them. Second round exits, the old statement is still true DEFENCE wins championships and the leafs have about 0 really good defencemen

[@karnak333]

+Philip ... Yes. Defence does win championship, but the last 3 cup champions have proved that's team defence and not really having top d-men in the lineup. To me, d-men don't win championships, elite centres do. Plenty of teams have won without top flight defencemen, very few won without a centre. In fact, probably since 1995, every team had elite centres in their lineup. The leafs are the 2nd best team in terms of centre depth. They have chance for sure if they can play defence as a team.

[@USAF-mt1tu]

Boy dont you look stupid

[@CharlieND]

I mean... he's not wrong.

[@axlgabe]

I have never in my life met a Leaf fan that said the Leafs are going to win the cup. I live in Toronto and I am a die hard Leafs fan. All of the Leafs fans that I know, have a losing attitude and never expect the Leafs to win anything.....that is the truth and reality of the situation.

[@austing.8870]

Sid is completely justified here. The Tavares signing was a bit of a mystery. They didn’t really need him, and should have gone after a solid blue line. They’ll go a little further in the playoffs this year, but without a blue line, they aren’t winning a cup. $40 million for 4 forwards isn’t how you build a contender.

[@lenkennedy9214]

Why is Sid such an angry person? Every time I see a Tim and Sid video Sid is losing is damn mind, yelling screaming and getting all upset. Is the guy ok? Is he really this angry or is he just playing it up for TV? He can't possibly be this angry about hockey, can he? These crazy rants of his make Don Cherry seem tame. I don't think I've ever seen a Tim and Sid video where Sid wasn't yelling and losing his god damn mind. If he's for real this angry he really needs to look into anger management. There's no reason to be getting this worked up its just a game. You're getting all mad over a game thats played for entertainment. These aren't real issues that matter, we're talking about a game here. I hope Sid is ok I'm honestly worried about him.

[@foist101]

Oh for god's sake, it's his job to be hyperbolic and over the top.

[@lastofusclips5291]

yep, ranting is what gets views

[@gregcushing1716]

He only angry on TV,cause anywhere else he would get knockout,then at home given a timeout

[@kinitex]

2 games into pre season and sid is ranting leafs can't win a playoff series... Wasn't this knob complaining that the media was too hard on Toronto teams just a few weeks ago?

[@stringer19]

The same duo that went on the "Crosby's era is over - He can't do what he used to anymore etc etc etc.... - Goes out and gets 2 Cups - 2 Con Smythes, World Cup + MVP & A rocket ... Let the leaf fans have their day, they've been waiting forever to have a respectable team that can compete.

[@peterlananna3999]

Toronto signed a huge superstar player and has a good young core. It isn't wrong for fans to be excited to see what could come in the future. And I am not even a Toronto fan. BTW, the Leafs even in the 90's and 2000's were winning playoff series. It's not like they have just been a "joke" for 50 years.

[@Ahmad-if1tt]

can't really roll my eyes any harder

[@averageotaku1993]

Steve Dangle is over-hyped Leafs fan?

[@ramilm9793]

Thank you for this video 😂

[@tommclarty17]

The good thing about working in sports talk radio is that you can deliver scorching hot takes like this and only worry about 5% of your audience remembering.

[@Ryan-gp5hq]

😂 every single comment is a angry leaf fans

[@connorsim9624]

Ry An Actually it’s a bunch of Montreal fans agreeing with him

[@BlueJaysForever-zb3ty]

I’m a die hard leafs fan but I agree with Sid

[@connorsim9624]

Canada 13 obviously not the brightest leafs fan then

[@BlueJaysForever-zb3ty]

I’m a Leafs fan who knows that they won’t win the Cup if Boston is in the playoffs

[@Ryan-gp5hq]

Canada 13 do I have permission to say . And Washington. It’s yes or don’t say anything else

[@FredsDotW]

This is where Steve Dangle has a word with him 😂

[@ethanmurphy3563]

I feel like he’d agree with him honestly

[@omarhashmi2390]

Ain’t this the same guy that said Gadreau would score more than Crosby when he was experiencing a slump during the 2015-16 season?

[@kobyschechter8163]

This video aged so freaking well. They STILL haven’t won a playoff series with FOUR PLAYERS taking up HALF of their payroll!! What a freaking comedy show. (December 2020).
