Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee get set for puck drop as the Toronto Maple Leafs return to action to take on the Tampa Bay Lightning. They share expectations for Auston Matthews following a taxing gold-medal run, discuss the decision to start Anthony Stolarz, and react to Keith Pelley's message to Leafs season ticket holders. They chat about the importance of the next three games and how they will shape the Leafs' direction at the trade deadline. Later, Hockey Night in Canada analyst Craig Simpson joins the show (32:11) to dive deeper into tonight's matchup, whether the Leafs can find a way into playoff position down the stretch, and the keys for the team to hit the ground running out of the break.
