Today, Rachel & Russ welcome Mike DiStefano from Locked on Leafs to preview tonight's Philadelphia Flyers vs Toronto Maple Leafs matchup. How has Toronto's season been so far? Are the top forwards Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, John Tavares & William Nylander dominating the Leafs scoring (they are)? What does that mean for team depth, defense, and how is goaltender Jack Campbell holding up with Petr Mrazek being injured? Then we answer some mailbag questions including what to do upon Kevin Hayes' return & how we think the Olympic break will affect the team.

On today's show, Russ & Rachel check in on how the NHL is handling Covid-19 protocols this season. Then we do our weekly trip to Lehigh Valley and check in on the Phantoms. They've won 2 games now, but where could they still improve? And how are prospects Morgan Frost, Tyson Foerster, Cam York, Egor Zamula and others doing at this point in the context of some of the team's poor performances?

It just wasn't meant to be last night as the Flyers lost to Pittsburgh 3-2 in overtime. Rachel talks about Carter Hart's performance in net, how Travis Konecny is spot on in his post game analysis, and what the Flyers need to do to bounce back against the Washington Capitals. Their top line of Alex Ovechkin, Evgeny Kuznetsov, and the dreaded Tom Wilson are going to be tough to defend, so the Flyers defense, including Travis Sanheim and Rasmus Ristolainen are going to have to step it up with Ryan Ellis still out. We wrap up with an analysis of the Jack Eichel trade to Vegas & the Gritty Thing of the Week!
