Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee kick it off with the Leafs win over the Chicago Blackhawks last night, touching on the return of Auston Matthews, a lacklustre audition from Patrick Kane and Kyper's newest column about Kyle Dubas' future in Toronto. Maple Leafs radio colour analyst Jim Ralph discusses the Leafs' trend of playing down, his level of trust in the team's netminding corps and what additions are necessary to improve offensive depth (43:22). Then, Luke Fox joins the show to discuss the pressure on Dubas, Morgan Rielly slowly coming around and his give-and-take relationship with Sheldon Keefe (1:09:34). The guys close with a conversation about the best players available at the deadline and what they would cost.The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the position of Rogers Sports & Media or any affiliates.

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).
