Talkin' Buds Leafs Show

The Toronto Maple Leafs picked up an epic come-from-behind win over the Nashville Predators on Tuesday night, in a game that featured Gavin McKenna's first NHL goal, Auston Matthews leading the way with four points, Tavares and Nylander getting on the board, and Jack Roslovic continuing to stake his claim in the Leafs' top six. We give our take on the game and discuss the unhinged media behaviour in the city over the last couple of days about McKenna not taking optional skates.

The Toronto Maple Leafs let one slip away at home on Saturday night, falling to the Ottawa Senators. Despite the loss, we start the episode with the positives, including Auston Matthews and Kirill Marchenko continuing to generate offence, Easton Cowan's great play, and Sergei Bobrovsky once again looking solid. With John Tavares struggling to start the season, is it time to consider switching up the second line, or are they just snake bit? We discuss that and some more news from around the league.

The Toronto Maple Leafs picked up their first win of the season, beating the New York Islanders thanks to stellar performances from both Easton Cowan and Anthony Stolarz. We discuss Cowan's remarkable improvement from last year, Gavin McKenna having a better night, the top line once again looking dangerous 5-on-5, and why PP1 continues to struggle.

The Toronto Maple Leafs opened the season with a 3-2 loss to the Montreal Canadiens, and we're back to break it all down. We discuss the positives from the game, including Kirill Marchenko's debut, along with strong showings from William Nylander and Sergei Bobrovsky. We reiterate that this is going to be a work in progress over the first few weeks after all the offseason change, but the power play needs to start clicking in a hurry, and Darren Raddysh needs to settle into his new role on the Leafs' blueline.

Toronto Maple Leafs GM John Chayka continued his offseason wheeling and dealing right up until the eve of the season, trading Matthew Knies, Steven Lorentz and Emil Andrae to the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for Kirill Marchenko, Miles Wood and Elvis Merzlikins. We give our take on the trade, the end of the Knies era, Marchenko signing a six-year extension, and his fit in the Leafs' top six.
