Toronto Maple Leafs prospect expert Nick Richard from Daily Faceoff Toronto joins us on today’s episode to talk about the future of this team. We dig into why Ben Danford’s ceiling is higher than people give him credit for, Easton Cowan’s massive leap in year two, and what’s next for Artur Akhtyamov, Landon Sim and a sleeper in the system. From there we get into Gavin McKenna’s start, Jim Hiller so far, Kirill Marchenko, William Nylander and the return of Auston Matthews. Watch on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/VnpjSL33fIc
Toronto Maple Leafs make it three straight with a 5-4 win over the New York Rangers, and Troy Stecher scores the game winner. We break down why Troy Stecher has the passion, a fourth line that’s finding its identity and Kirill Marchenko’s 12 points in 12 games, plus a rough night for Sergei Bobrovsky and Gavin McKenna on the third line. We wrap up tonight’s episode with a look ahead to Saturday night against Edmonton. Watch on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/rs4FS-3GXl0
Toronto Maple Leafs make it two in a row for the first time this season, taking care of the Columbus Blue Jackets. We start with why Easton Cowan should be untouchable, then break down Auston Matthews being off to the best start of his career, plus a penalty kill that keeps driving offence and a huge night from Troy Stecher. We wrap up tonight’s episode by giving a few guys their props for standout performances. Watch on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/ifglCigoJM0
The Toronto Maple Leafs snap their three-game losing streak with a must-have regulation win over the San Jose Sharks, and Gavin McKenna buries the power-play winner. We break down McKenna’s big night, Auston Matthews being in on all three goals and Sergei Bobrovsky’s best game of the season, plus why the forwards need to stop blowing the zone and help out the blue line. We also get into a penalty kill that’s first in the NHL and McKenna’s ice time down the stretch. Watch on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/2AGqMMNBfYA
The Toronto Maple Leafs are sitting last in the Atlantic after a three-game losing streak, so we debut our new segment, Buds and Duds, to sort through the good and the bad nine games in. We break down the goaltending, a blue line that needs a scorched-earth rebuild and Jim Hiller landing in the dud category, plus why this team needs to lean into its run-and-gun identity, before wrapping up today’s episode with a look around the league and the week ahead.
