Jake Gardiner may have had a rough game seven, but the Leafs defenceman is coming off a career year and is signed to a very team -friendly deal, so he will likely be here to stay, despite taking a lot of heat from fans for the upsetting game seven loss to the Bruins. Fans have laid the blame on Auston Matthews, Nazem Kadri and Mike Babcock for the loss.
Jake Gardiner has taken the brunt of it.
Gardiner helped lead the team to Game 7 against the Boston Bruins, after a major comeback from a 3-1 deficit in the series for the second time since 2013.
