Leafs not a depth piece away from contention, need to diversify core
I wouldn’t take calls on: Auston Matthews, John Tavares, Mitch Marner, Rasmus Sandin and Morgan Reilly. Everybody else? Put them in play. Try to collect a higher draft pick. Because the Toronto Maple Leafs aren’t a depth forward or defenceman away. The post NHL appeared first on Sportsnet.ca.

FTB: How can you tell if your hockey team is cursed?
Jean-Yves Ahern-USA TODAY Sports I mean, they’re probably not. But also... maybe. Somewhere around hour two of googling “how to tell if your hockey team is cursed” and “how to break a curse” in a haze yesterday after reading this tweet – #Leafs have recalled Pontus Aberg from the Marlies.John Tavares & Justin Holl (illness), Zach Hyman ("bumps/bruises"), and Kyle Clifford (funeral) will not be at practice. Andersen placed on IR retroactive to last Monday, but that doesn't affect his availability for tomorrow.— Kristen Shilton (@kristen_shilton) February 10, 2020 – I...

FTB: Well that was an annoying loss
Photo by Vincent Ethier/Icon Sportswire via The Leafs lost to the Habs in the most annoying way possible. That game was annoying and terrible. It’s not only because the Maple Leafs lost to the Canadiens on a Saturday night national game, or because they want over 15 minutes without a shot-on-goal in the third period. It’s because the Habs tied things up with only minutes left and then easily and quickly won it all when Ilya Kovalchuk scored only 1:43 into the OT period. Tyson man. Why? pic.twitter.com/RvdJjzONTs— Omar (@TicTacTOmar) February 9, 2020 John Tavares still made a...
