Well, that was ugly. Despite that, I don’t think it was anywhere close to Toronto’s worst loss of the season.
Anyone else remember the month of October? Yuck.
We kicked off the Wednesday edition of Leafs Morning Take by recapping last night’s lopsided 7-2 loss on Long Island. Personally, I thought the Leafs were great in the first period, but unfortunately, the rest of the night was a different story. Furthermore, Rosey did not hold back on his opinion when analyzing what Sheldon Keefe has been doing lately with regards to all the line shuffling and D rotation stuff.
After that, powered by our friends over PointsBet Canada, we welcomed in the Host of Hockey Night in Canada, Ron MacLean, to get his thoughts on this Maple Leafs team moving forward. As per usual, Ron brought the heat and the stories.
Join me on Thursday at 11 AM ET for a full preview of Leafs/Cats on Thursday night. Also, Jay Rosehill will be by for another instalment of 3 Hits With Rosey.
