The Leafs Dog-Day Problem w/ James Mirtle + Craig Berube

James Mirtle, Senior Managing Editor of The Athletic, chats with JD about the Leafs being stuck in the standings (again), potentially changing the NHL playoff format, topics at the NHL GM Meetings, the Leafs' lack of cohesive lines and their defensive core, plus the continued decision-making between Ilya Samsonov and Joseph Woll (8:00). Craig Berube, NHL veteran and Stanley Cup Champion Head Coach, discusses John Tortorella's thought process benching the Flyers' captain, what he's seen from the Leafs, and what he instilled in his Stanley Cup winning teams, before sharing some memories of his former teammate Chris Simon (50:00). Senior Producer at The FAN 590, Daniele Franceschi, joins the show to breakdown some March Madness prospects that Raptors fans should know about (1:20:00).
