by OddsShark (@OddsShark) – Sponsored Post Some trends suggest that the Toronto Maple Leafs can keep the closer mentality they have taken on while waiting for Frederik Andersen and Auston Matthews to get healthy. The Maple Leafs are slight -115 favourites and the Edmonton Oilers are -105 underdogs with a 6.5-goal total on the NHL…
Read More →The Leafs are riding high after Jack Campbell and Michael Hutchinson helped lead the team to back to back shutouts over Connor McDavid and company in the last couple of games, and they’ve done so without Auston Matthews in the lineup as well. Tuesday’s practice, however, brought with it some optimism that reinforcements for an…
Read More →So, again, the Maple Leafs defeat the Edmonton Oilers. And, again, Toronto shuts them out. Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl both couldn’t solve Michael Hutchinson as he made 31 saves in this one. William Nylander, aka Willy Styles, scored his fourth goal in three games, Zach Hyman and Morgan Rielly also added the other two…
Read More →So here’s the deal for all you cool cats and kitties, the Leafs are pretty tight lipped at the moment, so there isn’t a whole lot in the way of rumours connecting certain players directly to the Leafs. We don’t need any wild accusations of this being a clickbait post, but if we’re being perfectly…
Read More →If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. The Leafs took everything that worked well in Saturday’s shutout over the Oilers and brought it to tonight’s game despite another missed game for Auston Matthews, and Jack Campbell out of the lineup again. The Leafs got goals from Hyman, Nylander, and Rielly in the first period and…
Read More →Coming off an impressive full-team performance Saturday night, led by a newly-returned Jack Campbell who posted a shutout against Connor McDavid and crew, the Leafs are hoping to keep the pressure on and come out with a similar result in Edmonton tonight. However, it seems they’ll be doing so without either Campbell or Frederik Andersen…
Read More →It seems strange to talk about the draft for a few reasons. The first is that this is a Leafs blog, and the Leafs are sitting at the top of the league. They are going to be picking late in the first and the player they draft isn’t going to be a focus for a…

Read More →Despite having one of the best powerplays this season, the Toronto Maple Leafs have really struggled to create chances at times. It can be incredibly frustrating to watch Mitch Marner shoot the puck in the middle of goalies’ chests, but it’s just as frustrating to see Morgan Rielly take one-timers from the right side when…
Read More →by OddsShark (@OddsShark) – Sponsored Post The Toronto Maple Leafs’ habit of being able to refocus on the road predates the away-team advantage that has arisen in the North Division. The Maple Leafs are a -115 away favourite with the host Edmonton Oilers coming back at -105 in a game that has a 6.5-goal total…
Read More →This week was an ugly one for Habs fans. Their team has now lost seven of their last eight, and fired their head coach responsible for the systems that was driving the team to success, even though a huge reason they were losing was because their “elite” goaltender Carey Price has had an .888 save…
Read More →The Toronto Marlies had an interesting road trip to start the season. At some points they looked like the most dominant team on the ice, and at other points they looked like they could use a few practices. It’s obviously not ideal for Toronto because of the amount of games and how much practice time…
