Nick Robertson Should Make the Toronto Maple Leafs
The Toronto Maple Leafs will begin the regular season in just a little over a week. That means that the Toronto Maple Leafs will start cutting down the number of players in camp. One player they won’t be cutting – unless they’ve gone and lost their damn minds – is Nick Robertson. Originally, there were […] Nick Robertson Should Make the Toronto Maple Leafs - Editor In Leaf - Editor In Leaf - A Toronto Maple Leafs Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Sandin’s return, Giordano’s role, injury after injury. The Leafs still have a lot to figure out on defence
With re-signed Rasmus Sandin due in camp Sunday after a spate of injuries on defence, there’s enough depth for opening night. But the mix remains very much a work in progress.

3 Players with the Worst Odds of Making the Toronto Maple Leafs
The salary cap throws many hurdles in the path of a player hoping to become a Toronto Maple Leafs regular. Because the Toronto Maple Leafs are heading into the season already above the cap (though injuries may fix that a little), there’s very little wiggle room. Now add the fact that there’s some players on […] 3 Players with the Worst Odds of Making the Toronto Maple Leafs - Editor In Leaf - Editor In Leaf - A Toronto Maple Leafs Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Toronto Maple Leafs Welcome the Return of Rasmus Sandin
Defenseman Rasmus Sandin is returning to the Toronto Maple Leafs, and he is returning when they need him the most. When the Toronto Maple Leafs re-signed defenseman Timothy Liljegren on June 27th for two years at $1.4 million a season, it was reported that Toronto made the same offer to Sandin, but he declined.

The Toronto Maple Leafs System Both Incredible and Underrated
The Toronto Maple Leafs drafted Auston Matthews 1st overall in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. Since then, the Toronto Maple Leafs have made the playoffs every year, and developed into one of the NHL’s best and most consistent contenders. Sure, playoff success has eluded the team so far, but that only makes it sweeter when […] The Toronto Maple Leafs System Both Incredible and Underrated - Editor In Leaf - Editor In Leaf - A Toronto Maple Leafs Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Weekend FTB: Big brother shows little brother how to play hockey
Dan Hamilton-USA TODAY Sports The Toronto Maple Leafs obliterated the Ottawa Senators in Belleville last night. The Maple Leafs continued their pre-season last night, playing in Belleville and trouncing the Ottawa Senators 6-3. It was quite a fun game, though the Senators certainly did not have their “A” lineup for this one. Victory pic.twitter.com/q8l9BDS77I— Omar (@TicTacTOmar) October 1, 2022 We got a good look at Ilya Samsonov in net this game and I saw a goalie from the Louis Domingue school of adventure. I always get worried when goalies go way out of...

Toronto Maple Leafs Hot Trade Rumour: Jakob Chychrun
The Toronto Maple Leafs need to trade for Jakob Chychrun. As we all know, Toronto Maple Leafs GM Kyle Dubas is on the last season of a five-year contract. It doesn’t necessarily mean he won’t be in the executive in-charge next year, but if things go sideways (again), it’s possible that he’ll be let go. Throughout his […] Toronto Maple Leafs Hot Trade Rumour: Jakob Chychrun - Editor In Leaf - Editor In Leaf - A Toronto Maple Leafs Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Making some sense out of the Maple Leafs salary cap
Photo by Kevin Sousa/NHLI via Eventually, the squeeze is going to come. Maybe. Only a few weeks ago a trade of someone off the Maple Leafs roster who played all of last season on the team seemed inevitable. There wasn’t enough cap space to fit in everyone, and even with some players lost to waivers, as seems inevitable, that wouldn’t make the remainder cost less. That hasn’t really changed, not even with John Tavares injured for a few weeks. To illustrate this, instead of just recreating the CapFriendly page, which shows the Leafs over the cap by a significant...

FTB: Mitch Marner on defense because everyone keeps getting injured
Steve Russell/Toronto Star via If you make over $8 million you should have to play every position. Good morning Toronto Maple Leafs fans and people who found an odd headline and were all "Say Whaaaaaaat?" Yes, I'm not lying. The Maple Leafs are looking at getting Mitch Marner time playing defense. Keefe says they’ve been looking at specific situations where they’d try Marner on defense. Like late game situations where they need another goal, as an example.— David Alter (@dalter) September 29, 2022 Okay I get it. More forwards more goals right? Plus if you...
