You know, like once upon a time. The Islanders […]

Will the Maple Leafs let pending RFA walk in July?
The Toronto Maple Leafs are a storied franchise that is in the throes of chaos at the moment. Without Captain Auston Matthews and the burden of general manager Brad Treliving's failures coming to light, fans in Toronto aren't happy. The team has begun to sell, as the inclination of the team is to remake itself, but what will they look like after Treliving is done tearing down the Kyle Dubas and Brendan Shanahan consensus? Mitch Marner was the first casualty, being traded to the Ve...

“I thought the execution was great. The first 10 [minutes] were as good as we’ve played for a long time. [Rochester] didn’t touch the puck much, and we were doing a good job of spending time in their end, wearing out the back of the net, and making them defend.
