Talkin' Buds Leafs Show

The Toronto Maple Leafs opened the preseason with a 6-5 OT loss to the Ottawa Senators. We discuss our positive and not so positive takeaways from the game. We also give our take on Craig Berube's comments after the game, the competitive tone being set in training camp and whether we think Berube will be able to get more out of the Leafs star players this season. We also talk Max Pacioretty, Easton Cowan, Nikita Grebenkin and touch on the volatile relationship between Mitch Marner and many of the fans within Leafs Nation.
