LEAFS SHOULD FIRE CARLYLE BEFORE THEY MAKE A TRADE!

-Carlyle would scratch Gardiner, Frattin, MacArthur, and Liles over players like Kostka, Orr, McLaren, and O'Byrne. Before you go saying me need Orr and McLaren because they defend our team, your wrong. When skaters ram into Reimer there is no one to defend him, and when Kadri fought Hedman, Orr was on the ice. Kostka is an AVERAGE AHL defense, nothing more. He should not have been playing, he was a -4 in Game 1.

-Some may say that the leafs made the playoffs so he is amazing. Wrong. If he played the better players over Kostka, Orr, McLaren, and O'Byrne we may have finished higher in the standings and avoided the Bruins.

-He played Bozak 1st Line. Bozak is not a 1st line center, no questions asked. some say he has chemistry with Kessel, that's a lie. Using a game tracker I calculated that when Kessel plays with Grabovski or Kadri his points per game actually increase, as oppose to Bozak, when his points per game actually decline.

-He put Grabovski in a shut-down role. Everyone has been complaining about Grabovski's play this season, look at the line-mates given to him by Carlyle. He played with Orr, McLaren, Komarov, and McClement most nights. (Not saying McClement or Komarov are bad players but not the quality he should be playing with).

-Some say that he made the penalty kill better, that's wrong as well. McClement boosted their penalty kill, but also the assistant coach coaches the penalty kill. Not Carlyle.

I think we need to put Dallas Eakins behind the bench of the Leafs. Carlyle is not the right coach for them.

Oh man, no no no Caryle's not going anywhere and nor should he. Just pipe down, thanks. Besides you go on about how the Leafs didn't play they're best players. or even remotly good player and he still made the playoffs! So by your logic he should get an EXTENSION for getting a bunch of bums to 5th place! Sit down thanks

Carlyle is the reason the leafs did well, he's the best coach the leafs had had in so long, you're an person if you think they should fire him
