    Devils @ Leafs - Dec. 30th, 7:00pm - SN

    The Devils have a strong PP that will face the Leafs strong PK They have a weak PK that will face the Leafs weak PP (until recently ..) Roughly average defensively but low scoring beyond their PP. I haven't seen them since they played the Leafs in October. I know there have been some injuries...

    Red Wings vs. Leafs - Dec. 28th, 7:00pm - SN

    I'm not as big of a fan of Robertson as you appear to be. But I noticed recently folks getting excited about Stecher - particularly after the game ending arm waving to get the crowd going. It reminded me of Robertson's fire and effort and made me wonder why he doesn't get the same respect. He...

    Red Wings vs. Leafs - Dec. 28th, 7:00pm - SN

    In 3 on 3, size doesn't matter nearly as much. Waterbug hockey. Not nearly as many physical matchups. I don't buy small as a very good excuse.

    Red Wings vs. Leafs - Dec. 28th, 7:00pm - SN

    3 on 3 is a different game. Mobility is more important. Rielly can still skate and has a lot of experience puting up points. I would not blacklist him from 3 on 3. OEL is probably too slow to be great. Tanev, Benoit & Myers don't fit the profile. McCabe & Stecher would be options but better than...

    Red Wings vs. Leafs - Dec. 28th, 7:00pm - SN

    Stecher & OEL were on the ice for four of Ottawa's goals Stecher was doing so well with McCabe (probably any Leafs dman would ..) OEL's play seemed more the culprit than Stechers (just did a quick review - might have missed something) The Wings present more of a test Hopefully, they can keep...

    sens @ Leafs - Dec. 27th, 7:00pm - SN

    Stecher was in on some of the scrap in front of Woll at the end. His heart might be bigger than he is. He's done remarkably well since they picked him up. Glad for the W but they still have a bunch of work to do

    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    Actions speak louder than words. Who else got fired, traded, waived or sent down? One guy took the fall for many ... for now. Of course, the guys who fired him said they were taking full responsibility too ...:)

    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    I'm not sure about that. NHL coaches tend to get axed after ~2 years. That is an eyebrow raising number. Makes me wonder. Until last season, what goaltending did these coaches have to work with? No coach could help Samsonov or Campbell, who are both now out of the league, stop pucks.

    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    Currently, their 83.3% PK (5th best in NHL) for this season is the best PK% and ranking in the Matthews era. 2023-24 (76.9%, 23rd) and 2024-25 (77.9%, 17th) were two of their three worst seasons for PK during that time. In a season of multiple poor results, they have clearly made some progress...

    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    There have been reports in media (how credible I am not sure) that DeBoer is not interested. He is currently being well paid by Dallas. He is currently assisting Team Canada's Olympics effort. The Leafs situation is not very enticing as a rebuild might make more sense - they're not a team...

    I wonder if they'll keep McCabe & Stecher together - they've done well

    2025-26 Toronto Maple Leafs General Discussion

    If nothing is changed in the next couple of weeks or sooner, Berube would be in a lot of danger in terms of keeping his job. If they're heading to miss the playoffs, I would expect Treliving would be in a lot of danger before the trade deadline. The media sharks smell blood in the water.
