Post Game: Dropping The Ball
The Ball Drop is still almost six hours away, but the Leafs seemed a little too eager today and dropped it early, losing 6-3 to the Vegas Golden Knights whilst being brutally outplayed for the majority of the game. It was wretched turnover after wretched turnover, with a couple of Auston Matthews goals in between…
LGD: New Year’s Eve against a New Year Team
The Leafs will take on the Vegas Golden Knights on New Year’s Eve Day, at 3:30 pm ET. An interesting way to end the year. This game will feature one of the six most historic teams in the NHL, against a team who has only been around since September. Lines The lines for Vegas have…
Canada Postgame: Canada, Eh-ight?
In their final round robin game of the 2018 World Juniors, Team Canada had yet another dominant showing, claiming an 8-0 shutout victory against Denmark. An 8-0 win against the Danes is not surprising, especially considering Denmark’s status as a probable relegation team. Nevertheless, their strong showing in today’s game suggests more positive results moving forward….
WJC Prospect Report Day 5: Liljegren impresses against Switzerland but still remains pointless
The end of the preliminary round of the 2018 WJC looms just around the corner, and with that comes better competition, better performances, and better stories. Jake Oettinger saw the start in goal for the Americans during the Canada vs. USA outdoor game on December 29th amidst the highly-criticized IIHF money grabber. Joseph Woll’s performance…

Morning After Report: Leafs Beaten in Mile High Country
Last night, the Maple Leafs took on the Avalanche in Colorado and suffered an overtime loss. This was the second night of a back-to-back, and a road game. Generally, that’s a recipe for a loss. The Avalanche as a team are lower quality than the Leafs thus far this season, as noted in last night’s post…
Leafs Postgame: You’ve Got To Be Mac-Kidding Me
The Maple Leafs were in Denver tonight facing the Colorado Avalanche. Post-Matt Duchene, the Avs are looking to bring about positive change and growth with a re-tooling and an insurgence of previously-acquired youth, like Compher, Raantanen, Jost, and Zadorov, and newly-acquired youth, like Girard, Yakupov, and Kerfoot. The lines tonight for the Avs and for…
WJHC Postgame: Canada lets victory slip away; Lose in shootout to USA
The round-robin game everyone looks forward to year after year has come. This year, for some added flair, the game will be held outdoors. It’s Canada versus the USA in the World Junior Hockey Championship. The lines for Canada appear to be the same as their most recent game against Slovakia, except with Kale Clague being healthy…

Defence? LOL no.
The TLN Roundtable: Add A Former Fan Favourite Leaf to the Roster
Our fearless leader is trapped in Buffalo with the Wi-Fi and quality of life you’d expect out of Buffalo so he was unable to post today’s roundtable. He did however manage to hand us down an interesting question to wrestle with our minds… if you could bring back one leafs player cult hero/ fan favourite…
LGD: Pick-Up Hockey
It’s Game Day! And a special one at that: Pickard expected to start tonight vs his former team the Avs https://t.co/iA8BhkL1CI — Pierre LeBrun (@PierreVLeBrun) December 29, 2017 A mere couple of hours after I was wondering whether tonight would be a McElvezina or McElheinous showing, I’m now excited to finally see Calvin Pickard make…
