Former Toronto Maple Leafs captain John Tavares is watching his team waste away the early portion of the season, and there is no doubt he's not happy about it.
After two losses in a row, some fans are starting to hit the panic button on the Toronto Maple Leafs. The losses to the Boston Bruins and the Carolina Hurricanes were absolutely unacceptable.
They were winnable games, and now, the Leafs find themselves in a deficit that they may not be able to get out of.
Moving forward, there is no telling if the Leafs will get it together. If one thing is for sure, it is that former captain John Tavares is not happy.
John Tavares gets honest about the Toronto Maple Leafs
While speaking to the media after last night's game, Tavares called the Leafs "immature," stating that as the game goes on, they are unable to keep it together.
Our game for whatever reason becomes really immature and you don't manage the game very well.
Tavares' comments showcase a real frustration, and it feels like that frustration will only continue to grow if this team does not start winning.
We gain some traction and then we shoot ourselves in the foot again.
Typically, John Tavares is an awful quote, who doesn't say a whole lot to the media after games. However, that is changing right now.
It just goes to show that the Toronto Maple Leafs are in a bad spot, and that even the quietest guys on the team are getting more passionate.
With the Leafs playing the Bruins again on Tuesday night, this is going to be fascinating to watch going forward.
