Brad Marchand loves to play the Toronto Maple Leafs, and apparently, he loves to defend them as well. Ahead of the Maple Leafs and Florida Panthers matchup on Tuesday night, Marchand spoke with the media, and essentially bashed all the 'haters' who feel the Maple Leafs are not a playoff team. Marchand made it very clear, he still feels they are, and everyone shouldn't be writing them off in December. "What are we, 25 games in? If you think that your playoff dreams are done 25 games in, you've ...

This past week was pretty busy when it comes to news and updates for Toronto's prospects, plus some small notes I didn't get from the previous week.
The NHL's trade market has picked up in a major way, and expect to see some action in the very near future. GM's around the league now have a pretty good idea of what their team's makeup is, as the American Thanksgiving milestone weekend has passed, and with the Christmas holiday break coming up, this is usually when we see a few trades trickle in before the calendar flips to the new year. According to hockey insider Chris Johnston, there's three teams to be on the lookout for: Chris Joh...

The Islanders took another regulation loss because this sport is alternately frustrating and fun in the “on any given Sunday afternoon…” kind of way. It was funny to hear the coaches in post-game because Washington’s Spencer Carbery was basically, “Eh, well, we were OK” and “we [were fortunate to get] a 2-0 lead and were […]

The Toronto Maple Leafs are still looking to switch a few things up on their roster and the Nashville Predators are headed into full seller mode with how things have gone over the past two seasons. This sets up a possibility of a trade involving the two teams. According to Elliotte Friedman, "I'm hearing that there is interest from the Leafs in a Michael Bunting reunion. Not sure what gets it done, but I believe Maccelli may be part of the return." Bunting is in the final year of his three-yea...
