Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start with the Leafs' 7-4 win over the weekend vs. the Wild, Auston Matthews' prolific scoring start, William Nylander looking more motivated and an early evaluation of the team's forward depth. Then, a look at how some of the new fixtures have factored in, Max Domi's fit, Matthew Knies showing hopeful signs and whether Ryan Reaves' extracurriculars make up for his play on the ice. They are joined by TNT analyst Darren Pang (29:57), who tees up tonight's game between Toronto and Chicago, the hype surrounding Connor Bedard, whether it's too much on his plate, how far the team is from being competitive and how the new pieces around Bedard have slotted in.
