Steve Dangle Reacts To The Leafs Losing The Series Against Florida

[@myutoob2011]

Steve, as a Panthers fan, thank you for being passionate and fair. This series is the first time I actually watched any of your videos and I'm glad I did. See you next season.

[@RickAP]

Yes, Panthers fan here too, Steve is an interesting guy, and fair. I'll look for him next season as well!

[@GranPapaFrita]

Penguins fan here we didn’t make the playoffs this year but routing for you guys tbh as you have play incredible.

[@bdbdkdfotbrveiw]

Honestly these streams are great, sportsnet let this man keep streaming the games if he wants to!

[@SirManfly]

I couldn’t tell if Steve wanted to start destroying things 💥🤬🤬🤬 or cry! 😭😭😭

[@rickyjrvallee3707]

Good stream but not with the good team unfortunately

[@itstorok]

Used to enjoy him, until he decided to spend the entire stream crying about the officiating instead of commentating on the game properly.

[@adamfirebear]

agreed! fantastic stream! very entertaining way to take in a game

[@bdbdkdfotbrveiw]

@@itstorok so who asked? Is what I wanna know?

[@cclovesdaisy]

Great job Steve! "they're playing like a toddler trying to put on a snowsuit" will forever stay with me lol

[@yamforlife]

Hhhhaaa love that analogy!!! Still laughing!!!

[@danquarterman]

Really? That's dumb.

[@chrispoli1631]

Hang in there Steve. Huge Bruins fan here and I love watching your videos! You’re a class act. Our teams let us down this year BUT we will NEVER leave them. Keep up the great work and I’m looking forward to more videos from you.

[@briangriffinfamilyguyfan81]

Well said.

[@davidkruse4030]

Bla bla bla. Ahahahah. Keep coming back

[@Thermobyte]

Fellow bruins fan, I see. I feel a little less bad losing to Florida now tbh. Not good, but a little less bad.

[@AcousticHunter]

Bob impressed me so much 🤯 he's been soo good in those playoffs

[@88Oleksiy]

Finally 10 million goalie playing for his money first time in 4 seasons

[@bajjanitor]

The sequence in OT where he jumps over the puck is so impressive. Need a real special mind to have that kind of composure in that situation.

[@88Oleksiy]

@@CynicalSpheres lol, I am not criticizing him. What I am saying is that he is just playing up to his expectations. When a person starts a job, there is expectation of we pay you x amount of money and we expect you to deliver y,z. When a person delivers what he/she gets pay for, it's not impressive, it's normal. If some rookie who makes 1m a year would play like Bob that would of been impressive because he exceeds his expectations..

[@EtopiaCA]

@@CynicalSpheres How have you made it through life without a spine?

[@88Oleksiy]

@@CynicalSpheres of course he doesn't..otherwise he would of post here :) it's you who is trying to justify his performance

[@TinyEle]

I really hope they keep bringing you back (if you want to do them, its fun watching a series with steve dangle.)

[@cleementine]

Yes, let's keep watching playoff hockey with Steve!

[@alasdairveitch8578]

Steve - am a 63-yr-old lifelong Habs fan, but I have been watching your Sportsnet streams and LFR for a few years and really enjoy them, and not just for schadenfraude (or however it is spelled). Your passion, delivery and just 'good guyness' are why I watch. I really wanted to see a Leafs -Oilers final this year with you and the LFRs woulda been epic. But, not to be... Thank you Steve for all the hours of entertainment and insight :-)

[@Raidermedic]

Thank you Steve . Not a Leafs fan here but a hockey fan , Havent missed a stream from you or an SDPN all season . Love the passion you bring to every game and every vid you do . Would love to see you continue on through the rest of playoffs .

[@therandomytchannel4318]

Oilers fan here and he's totally right after game 3, he's reaction and explanation is 100 💯 percent, the Leafs take you this high, then slam you right down into the crust of the Earth!!!! 😂

[@MMoses87]

This is an annual tradition of Dangle letting us see him get his heartbroken

[@yamforlife]

I have been dealing with the leafs losing since 1967. I was 7 when they last won the cup. Sometimes I just shut it off. Broken a few remotes over the years. It’s part of being a true fan. Go leafs.

[@mikecruze9600]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 ... 😢

[@randytessman6750]

Was born in 68 (am curse of the leafs) where I grew up(London, ON) everyone was a Habs fan or cheered for the Leafs so of course I am a REDWINGS fan :) but 2008 is long way off now too. Suffered thru some bad years to get to those great teams and hoping on a rebuild now. Leafs have some good young players so with a little luck will get another shot next year(REDWINGS shouldnt)

[@Dumpsterfired]

You’re the reason they never have to win. You reward a team that hasn’t and won’t deliver anything but $400 jerseys $20 beers and the most expensive tickets out there. And you’ll do it again. When your fans make you the richest team in the league for having the longest drought in NHL history, you never have to win. And they never will!😂

[@briangriffinfamilyguyfan81]

​@@Dumpsterfired not unless if they stop being greedy.

[@Fenrirmaster30]

​@@Dumpsterfiredthat's just dumb. By your logic Arizona should be unstoppable juggernauts then

[@willyboy6126]

You're a *CLASS* act, Steve....and a *TRUE* Leafs fan! 💙

[@brettrossi034]

Thanks for all of the entertainment and laughs and great moments this season Steve ! I know this loss hurts, so did the Carolina over Devils overtime loss for me too. But its been a wild ride

[@NeoDaOne]

Florida Goal - 4:52 Florida Goal - 10:00 Toronto Goal - 16:28 Toronto Goal - 28:19 Florida OT Goal - 39:22

Panthers are clearly the better team. Leafs got smothered. End of story.

[@mikulitsi1819]

Absolutely

[@frankrizzo4460]

👍🏒🐅🐯

[@mononcleantoine]

I thoroughly enjoyed your broadcasts. I am not a Toronto fan by any means and have been a Habs fan for 65 years ( I am 70 years old) I have met Maurice Richard and Jean Beliveau so I am a Hab fan thru and thru. All this to tell you that you made the Leafs fans "human" or at very least palatable. Watching you made me realize that you guys are just as passionate as we are and you live and die with the team unfortunately you guys have died a slow death for so long it's just sad. Good luck next year and I hope to see your broadcast again even if we cheer for different teams.

[@Rockman_Halo]

next playoffs I need to get a VPN so I can watch these live. you're so entertaining steve

[@willlondon1824]

Thank you Steve for your games and commentary. Look forward to your fun coverage of Leafs in 2023-2024 season.

[@eddiecoke5869]

As a longtime New Jersey Devils 😈 fan, I'm tipping my cap 🧢 of sympathy and respect for you and your Maple Leafs 🍁. It really stinks when your season ends. The Florida Panthers have been playing playoff hockey 🏒 when every NHL analyst and prognosticator said they were multiple games out of 2023 NHL playoff contention. The Florida Panthers team took what the naysayers and so-called analysts said personally and professionally. The veterans alongside the coaching staff truly came together and worked on both their strengths and weaknesses. And above all, the Florida Panthers improved on the following 9 areas: #1. Clutch playmaking which has led to timely goalscoring #2. excellent goaltending #3. timely penalty killing #4. Increasing their defensive intensity in blocking shots #5. Playing together as a TEAM that holds each other with Absolute Accountability. #6. Consistent communication with each other on every offensive and defensive assignment. They're outworking their opponents. #7. Working with their head coach and his coaching staff on the fundamentals with intensity and a sense of urgency #8. And an insatiable IRON WILL in winning at all costs. #9. Executing the coaching staff's orders to perfection and keeping their disciplined focus on every single game: both in the regular season and the playoffs with ZERO room for error. The Florida Panthers played every 2023 NHL game as an NCAA basketball tournament: WIN and ADVANCE. LOSE and GO HOME. The Florida Panthers are in PLAYOFFS mode and are determined to make every single opponent pay dearly for overlooking them. Their insatiable iron will to win at all costs. They didn't care about the injuries. They keep getting better and I have no doubt that they brought up younger players from their own farm system development. And signed key veterans at the trade deadline with massive NHL playoff game experience. I believe the Florida Panthers are truly Stanley Cup championship contenders. And I may be the only NHL fan saying this. But I truly believe that the Florida Panthers just might win the 2023 Stanley Cup.

[@jean-denislemieux8731]

Great work man, you are an important part of hockey and we hope to see you again soon. Florida was in the same boat as Toronto, underperforming in playoffs year after year, one of them was bound for more success and there we saw it.

[@alancanavan2962]

Thank you, Steve. No one could have done it better. Looking forward to your streams next season. Please be here next season it would not be the same without YOU! All my best Alan Canavan

[@nassimghrayeb2005]

Thanks for an amazing season Steve, the ups and downs have been fun if nothing else, and I'm one of those who doesn't think breaking up the core now is a good idea, it's an exciting team to watch. Keep it coming Steve!

[@kja6336]

Gotta find a way to exchange Matthews, everyone else was trying

[@miketapazis1179]

Sorry to break it to you, after 7 seasons of playoff flops, the excuses have ran out for this core.. they will changes this off-season with the core.

[@filipohman7277]

Thanks Buddy for everything!!👍👍😎 Greetings from Helsinki, Finland 🇫🇮🇨🇦🇫🇮🇨🇦🇫🇮🇨🇦

[@sebastiencarrieres8825]

I think the reason there was fewer deflected shot in this series compared to the one versus Tampa, is that it hurts more now! It's nice to have a few lumberjacks on your D corp.

[@bhkell5602]

We love ya, Steve!! See ya next season! GLG!

[@penguinvondark]

Stars fan here and my week isn't complete without Steve Dangle content, win or lose. Despite the frustration, please know your videos make mine and many other people's days. Thank you.

[@RBMGD]

Steve never gives up and always stays with the team. You could see the heartbreak on his face and in his voice. He has always been a passionate fan, and let’s hope this year that the leafs play with passion. Go leafs go!

[@brianjurko9085]

Matthews 0 goals, Marner 1 goal, Tavares 0 goals…5 games, 1 goal, 33 million in salary…BLOW THIS TEAM UP! Oh and Nylander does not deserve the hate he gets

[@EKNYR]

Nylander the only one who is actually worth his contract lol

[@fsginejr]

Good series Steve Dangle. Found your channel right before we started this series and even as a panthers fan I plan to continue watching. Quality content

That was an extremely entertaining game, high paced and had a bit of everything.

It was a good series, but a heartbreaker in the end. Further than the boys went before, but let's hope next year goes even better than this. Sending all the best from michigan.

[@davidanjo9752]

Thanks Steve - it has been a pleasure for me as well. I'm about twice you age so I've seen my fair share of disappointing Leaf finishes. Doesn't mean I am jumping off the bandwagon. This one hurts a little bit, but with pain comes understanding. Take care, see you on the broadcast/stream next season.

[@watchthiscrap]

I think that puck probably got in when Bob's pad went in. But the ref basically called it a no goal. And there was no shot that showed it in. If you're going to overturn a call you have to prove it. So by that definition, it probably would have stayed as a goal if the referee called it a goal because there is also no video proof showing it was not a goal either.

[@CesarMontecristo]

“Why? Porque? Pourquoi?” Absolute comedic gold! 🤣🤣🤣

[@Josh-nj1gw]

Its awesome how humble you are man,bye bye Toronto.. AGAIN

[@independentmind7782]

I have a lot of respect for Steve. He’s a die hard Leafs fan and would have every right to go full on homer and dispute the phantom goal / disallowed goal (call it whatever you want)on Reilly. But no. Steve keeps his head on straight, looks at the replay, analyses it and reaches a conclusion: no goal, good call (which is the correct answer). Well done Steve 👍

Steve we still have the Oilers in playoffs (for now) and even if they get knocked out we have two more rounds of hockey and WE need STEVE !!!

[@Firearcher4]

In March 2023 Ottawa played Colorado. The Aves fired a puck at the Ottawa goal and it went under the goalie in a play that was exactly the same as the goal Morgan Rielly scored. Ottawa's goalie covered the puck and waited a reasonable amount of time and then a Colorado player poked it into the net. The whistle never blew (just like Rielly's goal) and the puck went across the line (just like Rielly's goal) but in this case the play was deemed live and the goal counted. It was the EXACT SAME THING. By that template the precedent had been set and the goal should have counted. Icing ruled against Toronto when Bob played the puck. Marner elbowed in the face and no call, plus Florida given a power play in OT of a series deciding game. Game #3 Leafs get ZERO power plays and are 0-9 in games officated by Wes MacAuley. In 2022 Leafs were 20 minutes from winning the series when MacAuley put them down 5-3; Tampa scores on the PP and wins the game.

[@tjedds872]

Thanks for another amazing Steve Dangle LFR year! You gave this viewer and I dare say Leaf Nation hope even when You were sad and down.....Thank You Sir! Sadly this is my last year being all in on a team of millionaire twenty-something catastrophic under-achievers. Like most fans I am quite saddened by their 2nd round exit but not shocked. These "modern athletes" really don't care about the impact they have and have not made to the city of Toronto and it's outer reaching communities, the province of Ontario or Canada for that matter (my apologies, insert their personal charities here please) but do care about the level of their bank accounts. The Gary "call me Bruce" Bettman & Ownership Group conspiracy theory has been completely prevalent in that "there's No Profit to be made with Canadian teams in the playoffs or finals" I personally watched them play and win game 5 at Maple Leaf Gardens and being downtown with my Grandpa to see the Cup parade at 7 years old and saw what it did to lift so many spirits across our country. Thank you once again for all your years of coverage, support, motivation and speaking what seemed to be on everyone's mind.(I enjoyed your book as well and hoped to get it signed one day, but alas) All the best Steve & your crew...producer Drew, Adam, Jesse and all that I have miss.

[@MrArcheopteryx]

The leafs has a lot of talents and skills. BUT they lost by lack of AGRESSIVITY. I don't mean violence. Our Italian soccer coach taught us to aggressively go to take the ball back from them. Take shots at the goal like you REALLY mean it. Drive it to score. You don't play to play, you play to win. It worked and we got a medal, versing teams a lot more experienced than we were. You see lack of a hard desire to own that game, shows in "shots on goal" significantly higher with the Panthers and with the Leafs. "Opportunity to shoot" is a fallacy. Opportunities are CREATED. I am still very proud of Toronto. Throughout the season, they game me a lot of joy in watching darn good hockey! Long live the LEAFS!! You have the team. You got this. Go bring the cup to Toronto in 2024!

[@briangriffinfamilyguyfan81]

Thank you for entertaining us all this season Steve! I'm quite optimistic for next season after the Leafs performed a lot better then they did in the last 20 years. I hope they can apply that to next season, and prove that beating Tampa was not a fluke.

[@CreemoreTorch]

It was a fluke. They were lucky to beat a Tampa team that was battered.

[@ImperialSpy1138]

I'm honestly starting to feel bad for Steve😂😂💀💀

[@jimlangdon1947]

Congratulations again for Leafs & fans Round 1 win - after 19 years of playoff losing. Leafs played as an average playoff team this year - which makes it tougher to troll the Leafs. After Leafs lost 3 games straight in the second round - Leafs fans started to troll the Leafs themselves. That is taking the work of us Leafs true trolls away and is not fair. But we are forgiving & look forward to more fun & interesting Leafs play next year. My guess Leafs core, GM and Coach - play on for another 7 years of this continuing fun. To go 19 years without a playoff series win is a major accomplishment in failing. But we might just see it again?

What and break a hockey tradition? People depend on this.
