Description
Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne, and Sam McKee recap a west coast road trip for the Leafs, debate whether or not fingers should be hovering over the panic button after a less-than-inspiring start to the year, and discuss the current usage of the bottom six. Sportsnet's Luke Fox helps break down the road trip and compares the Leafs to other talented-but-underachieving teams (21:54). Hall of Famer and three-time Stanley Cup winner Mark Recchi chats about what is needed from the Leafs' leadership core moving forward, and what the team can do to jumpstart the offence (42:55). Former NHL head coach Claude Julien stops by to discuss the pros and cons of coaching in a major media market, and his experiences with players getting heated on the bench during losing streaks (1:04:49).

Time to Reshape the Leafs' Second Line?: Kyper, Bourne and Producer Sam chat about how the Leafs' Next Gen jerseys looked last night in their matchup against the Devils game, the tripping call against Mark Giordano that was reversed, and how the defenceman looked in his blue & white debut (2:18). Next, they touch on Petr Mrazek's outing, Pierre Engvall's short-handed game winner, and the second line's struggles (17:26). Then they discuss the Leafs' dangerous penalty kill, how Colin Blackwell looked on the fourth line, and Jason Spezza being 10 points away from 1000 (30:41). Afterwards, Aaron Ward touches on what Giordano brings to Toronto's locker room, his ability to close space in the defensive zone, whether the Leafs have a depth line that can be successful in the playoffs, the Leafs' defence corps and pairings, whether the Ducks should've kept Hampus Lindholm, and his thoughts on the Western Conference (41:18).
