Well we missed a show and it seems we may have hurt the Leafs because since our last episode the Leafs have only 1 shootout win vs Utah and 5 losses, including Saturday night vs the Sens!

The team has certainly struggled since the Trade Deadline, and we take a look at what may be going on in the Good, the Bad and the Ugly. It's actually been an oddly positive year, with not too many ups and downs, but over this latest segment its sure been hard to pin point many note worthy performances. The new guys are getting acclimated, we're getting a couple back from injury, and some guys are just plain tired!

Still there have been a few moments from the past couple weeks that made our Ladies Talkin’ Leafs Highlight Reel, so we shout out, a bruiser, a finisher, and a play maker that is taking his game up a notch at just the right time!

Then for the Third Period, since we haven't had a chance to talk to you about the Trade Deadline, we give our assessment of how we think Brad did, as well as address some of things we’ve noticed that are concerning as we get closer to the playoffs! There are a lot of narratives swirling around the Leafs right now, and we're crossing our fingers that they start to turn the ship around and get some wins. Winning the division has always been the goal, and with 16 games left, we are ready for the ramp up! Go Leafs Go!
