“That’s a really good team (Charlotte). They play with a lot of pace. They have a lot of big, strong guys, and we weren’t able to match their intensity. We weren’t predictable enough early on. They set the tone from the get-go. It’s not good enough. I’m not going to make any excuses. We’ve got […]

The narratives about the 2025-26 Maple Leafs have gotten out of control.
