Not a good week in Toronto with the Blue Jays losing the World Series in a devastating way and now the focus will shift to the Leafs and Raptors. We're saying goodbye and good riddance to October!  It wasn’t a good month at all for the Leafs with a record of 5-5-1, but on a positive the last few seasons their record in October hasn’t been great either.  

Yes, Leafs Nation is already feeling all the feelings right now — and honestly, who can blame us? The season’s off to a rocky, unpredictable start, and the emotions are running high. But are we overreacting, or is there real reason for concern?

In this episode of Ladies Talkin’ Leafs, we sit down with our Insider Mike Augello to break down the Leafs’ early-season storylines — from lineup adjustments and chemistry issues to the growing pains that come with any big change.

We talk about why emotional fan reactions are totally normal, how understanding team dynamics can help manage expectations, and why patience (yes, patience!) might be exactly what this team — and its fans — need right now.

It’s an honest, hopeful chat about leadership, frustration, and what it really means to stick with your team through the tough stretches. Go Leafs Go!
