Maple Leafs: Back With A Bang!

The puck drops at Nationwide Centre in Columbus to officially commence the home and home, a back-to-back matchup between the Maple Leafs and the Blue Jackets.

Leafs POTW (Oct 15th-22nd): Oh, Captain, My Captain!

Utter chaos in large part thanks to the media, the fanbase demanding the team trade everyone essentially, and a head coach walking back his “comments” when he called out his star players for not playing well enough, all while going 3-1-0 since last Saturday. Just another week in Leaf land! Moving forward, I will write […]

The Leafs came into this one after a 3-2 overtime victory against the Dallas Stars on Thursday.
