Description
Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee recap the weekend games between the Leafs vs. Ottawa Senators and Washington Capitals, Morgan Rielly scoring his first goal of the season, how T.J. Brodie looked in his return to the lineup, and how Pierre Engvall has raised his game. Then, Maple Leafs captain John Tavares (39:40) joins the guys to talk about reaching his 1000th NHL game and the Leafs' season so far, his gameday routine and off-ice activities, the evolution of his personal goals as a player, plus the difference of being with the New York Islanders versus playing for his hometown team. Former NHL goalie and TNT analyst Darren Pang jumps on to discuss (1:05:10) the state of the St. Louis Blues roster, whether they will be sellers or buyers at the trade deadline, and why he's impressed with the Seattle Kraken.

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).
