As we awake this morning the Leafs sit dead last in the Atlantic Division. Unfortunately, that’s a familiar place for them. It would seem that they’re picking up right where they left off last season. What has lead to them being here? One could argue that the coaching hasn’t been up to par. Jim Hiller … Read more
The Leafs simply can’t hold a lead right now. With 5 losses to their name this season, it’s shocking to see this stat… Locking things down in their own end has been a major issue, which should come as no surprise when you consider the fact that two of the three most used defenders on … Read more
We’ll start this off with a major positive. Auston Matthews had a monster week with a pair of 4pt games against Nashville and Colorado, while adding an assist in their game against Vegas. He has looked more dangerous than we’ve seen in years, which has lead many fans to wonder exactly what Craig Berube was … Read more
There’s a lot to talk about right now, so lets get to it… Jack Roslovic has looked faster and more effective than I had expected him to be. I’ve seen many people share that sentiment as well. It took him a long time to find a contract last summer after he produced just 39pts in … Read more

With 5 years left on his $7.75M AAV contract and some young starts starting to push towards the $20M AAV plateau, Knies is certainly entering “steal” territory on this contract. While Knies certainly doesn’t have the skill that a Macklin Celebrini or Kirill Kaprizov has, he’s still a force on the ice and would demand … Read more
There is absolutely nothing happening around the Toronto Maple Leafs right now. Go outside. Enjoy the summer sun. The cold and snow will be here before you know it.
I’ll start with what you likely already know. So very much of what the Leafs do over the next few seasons will depend on their captain, Auston Matthews and what he wants to do moving forward. John Chayka and Mats Sundin hit the ground running this offseason. They added a flurry of depth forwards, one … Read more
