Wins, losses, goal scoring records, franchise points records and everything else is falling to the wayside right now. While it’s amazing to see Auston Matthews score at a historical rate, while Mitch Marner tallies point after point like a man on a mission, with just 7 games left to the regular season we’re all just … Read more
The Toronto Maple Leafs are officially off to the playoffs, which means it’s a good time to try to get healthy: While Muzzin and Campbell are expected to be out short term (Campbell will be the backup goalie tonight), the same can’t be said for Ondrej Kase: …. or Rasmus Sandin: Even Auston Matthews took … Read more
I’m going to keep this one short because it’s game #72 and there’s essentially nothing left to say about this team. Erik Kallgren gets the nod tonight, which probably doesn’t matter. Kallgren played two fantastic games to start his year with the Leafs and, in the 5 games since, hasn’t posted better than a 0.885SV%. … Read more
We’re currently on Auston Matthews watch, as he is –><– that close to beating the Toronto Maple Leafs all time record of 54 goals in a season. With a hat-trick in last night’s 6-2 against the Tampa Bay Lightning he tied the record, giving him 12 games to take full ownership of the feat. I … Read more
The Leafs and Bolts are tied, with 93pts a piece, as they head into the 69th game of their season’s. These games matter when you look at the standings, but the waters are far too muddy to say exactly how much they matter. A win by the Leafs and Bruins inches those teams closer to … Read more
Just a couple of things to report, with the biggest being the return of Jack Campbell to the crease: Campbell has been sidelined for nearly a month with a rib injury and the hope is that a few weeks away from the ice and the opportunity to get healthy will give him the chance to … Read more
This tweet seems to have Leafs Nation talking: Which is hilarious to me because nobody seemed to pay attention when I said this exact same thing 5 months ago. They didn’t pay attention when I said it every 2-3 days since then either, but big shot Chris “hey look at me and my hipster beard” … Read more
With identical 41-19-5 records, the Leafs and Bruins do battle tonight in Boston. The winner will, at least for a moment, get a bit of breathing room in the battle for 2nd and 3rd in the Atlantic division, with the winner getting a *checks notes* 1st round matchup against the Tampa Bay Lightning? Well, alright … Read more
It’s hard to like this team. Good for you coach, you will get nothing from this but at least you finally did something*. Nick Abruzzese will join the team on Tuesday in Boston, it’s yet to be seen if he’ll suit up or not, but many are curious to see if he is NHL ready. … Read more
The Boston Bruins and the Tampa Bay Lightning played afternoon games today and both teams won. For the moment that has pushed the Toronto Maple Leafs into the #1 wild card spot. With a game in hand on the Lightning and two in hand on the Bruins, the Leafs hold the keys to their own … Read more
