<p>Deadline week is finally here.</p>
<p>Buckle up.</p>
<p>We kicked off the Monday edition of Leafs Morning Take by dissecting Florida’s <a href="https://theleafsnation.com/news/panthers-trade-seth-jones-accelerates-leafs-trade-deadline-clock">pickup of Seth Jones</a> from over the weekend. It was a huge move for them. Naturally, we discussed if/should need to respond. For what it’s worth, we were split on that debate. Any way you slice it, the Panthers are a better team than they were last week. We’ll see what Brad Treliving has up his sleeve this week.</p>

<p>Thanks to <a href="http://www.timhortons.ca/">Tim Hortons</a>, we recapped Toronto’s rollercoaster weekend, one that featured two more road victories. William Nylander and Matthew Knies led the charge with a combined two goals and an assist. Meantime, Anthony Stolarz was great on Broadway. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for Joseph Woll in Pittsburgh. That said, the Leafs found a way to get the two points, and sometimes, that’s all that matters. Furthermore, Max Domi and Conor Timmins each bumped big-time goal scoring slump. Speaking of which, Auston Matthews finally beat a goalie, a goal that moved him ahead of Darryl Sittler into second all-time in Leafs scoring. He’s 30 away from Mats Sundin. Toronto’s won five in a row and eight of nine. They went a perfect 4-0-0 on their road trip. The team deserves a lot of credit. They’re playing well and deserve a deadline boost from their GM. If you recall last year, the story wasn’t quite the same.</p>
