Well, here we go again. A first-round series between the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Boston Bruins will be decided in seven games. With only a few hours left before an epic game-seven, I am going to cut straight to the meat and potatoes. Therefore, in this article, I will be demonstrating how the Bruins…
The Boston Bruins have won game four to tie the series up at two. For the Leafs, these are the types of games that could haunt you if you don’t end up advancing to the next round. They could have taken hold of the series but instead, are entering a best-of-three, where the Bruins have…
For most Toronto fans, there was a mixed feeling coming into game three. On one hand, the Leafs were dominated in an emotional game two and lost one of their key centers for the rest of the series thanks to a suspension. On the other hand, it was now a best-of-five series with three games…
Game Two was one of those games that feels more important than it actually is. It was a textbook Boston Bruins win. The Leafs couldn’t get anything going offensively, the Bruins imposed their will physically, and they were able to bait Kadri into a suspendable act. The Refs didn’t do the Leafs any favours either…
One of the main storylines going into the playoffs this year was whether the Leafs would be able to shut down the best line in the league. After the signing of John Tavares and the trade for Jake Muzzin, the Leafs seemed a lot more equipped for the task and their Game One performance only…
The Leafs were in the city of Brotherly Love tonight to face the Philidelphia Flyers.

Once again, the Leafs were playing with an injury-filled defensive core, as they wait for Jake Gardiner…
There is a new fourth line in town and they are…… surprisingly pretty good. The line of Par Lindholm, Frederik Gauthier and Trevor Moore has exceeded expectations thus far and are doing it in their own way. The Leafs top-nine is full of stars and is able to complete tasks on the ice in a stylish…
The Leafs have a number of tough decisions to make once Auston Matthews and assuming he signs, William Nylander, returns to the lineup. For some players, their return forces them out of the lineup but for Andreas Johnsson, the return of Matthews and Nylander could mean an opportunity he has rarely received in the past:…
Between the incoming Nylander contract deadline, the Matthews injury and potential trades flying all over the internet, there hasn’t been a shortage of Leafs news recently. One story that isn’t getting the attention it deserves is the play of Travis Dermott. When Kyle Dubas was asked about the Leafs defense this past summer, he responded saying…
As the rumours become louder, the dialogue between the Leafs and the Nylander camp continue to be kept secret. The latest speculation regarding Nylander came from the HNIC segment “Headlines”.
