Toronto Maple Leafs and Mike Babcock Need To Look At Their Recent Play
The Toronto Maple Leafs are off and pacing in the 2019-20 regular season. Although to say they've started out evenly and set a "good pace" might be a tad misleading. The Leafs are off to a 5-4-2 start through 11 games.

The backup goalie situation is less than ideal with the number two man Michael Hutchinson failing to prove himself reliable to the team. The team starts most of their games...

It’s not quite a mugshot, but it’ll do. | Photo by Mark Blinch/NHLI via A two week recap, since the holiday threw me off schedule. Hello fans of Toronto Maple Leafs prospects! The Thanksgiving holiday threw me off my schedule and backed me up for two weeks on the prospect watching. I missed probably the most surprising thing that could happen with a Maple Leafs prospect on Friday night: Semyon Der-Arguchintsev was suspended for fighting. Really. Watch this: Yes, our seventh grade looking prospect got into it with a member of the Bertuzzi clan; Todd’s son Tag. It’s not much of...

Leafs Cannot Stop The Bergeron Line, Or Hope To Contain It; Lose 4-2
Photo by Maddie Meyer/ Blah. The Leafs journeyed to Boston tonight to play the loathsome, vile Bruins, having lost in overtime to the Columbus Blue Jackets the night before. This meant the game was what basketball people call SEGABABA (SEcond GAme of A BAck to BAck.) I am making a personal effort to spread this phrase into hockey. Tell your friends. There were a few lineup changes that we found out about shortly before puck drop: Based on warm-up, Leafs line-up changes in Boston: * Kevin Gravel in for Marincin ... makes his Leafs debut on third pair with Holl* Nic Petan in for Spezza...
