Description
Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee are up early to react to the Leafs' 2-1 overtime win in Game 5 to keep their series against the Bruins alive. They discuss Joseph Woll's standout performance inspiring confidence, the Bruins' tepid effort, strong play from the Matthews-less top line and Knies' heroics. Then, they get into Auston Matthews' unclear status and the Leafs' play without him in the lineup. Finally, they close with a look around the league as the Jets and Islanders get eliminated and the Canucks show cracks in Game 5.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).
