| 3/27/26 |  Toronto Maple Leafs throwing away chance at top 5 draft pick and prolonging inevitable rebuild | The Toronto Maple Leafs continue to add to their disastrous season by winning their way out of contention for a bottom-5 draft pick and handing the Boston Bruins a top-10 selection this offseason. We break down the now-disastrous decision to not fire Craig Berube, Brad Treliving's uncertain future, and Keith Pelley waiting too long to make critical decisions. We discuss why the organization being a rudderless ship is making it difficult to be a fan right now, and give our take on the Leafs' goaltending depth and whether the organization would consider moving one of them this offseason.

| 3/22/26 | Toronto Maple Leafs: Craig Berube Doing More Harm Than Good | No Organizational Direction | Toronto Maple Leafs head coach Craig Berube continues to look completely lost behind the bench, this time calling out Joe Woll after Friday's loss to Carolina. We break down why the Leafs probably should've moved on from Berube instead of just Marc Savard earlier this season, and why he's had such a short shelf life with this roster. We also discuss the organization's complete lack of direction, especially when compared to teams like the Tampa Bay Lightning, and why it's so hard to feel optimistic about the future until the Leafs provide clarity, stability, and direction to the fanbase.

| 3/19/26 | Toronto Maple Leafs: Embrace the Rebuild and Move to the Next Era | The Toronto Maple Leafs' lack of toughness and compete level continues to dominate conversation among fans and media, and we once again ask the question: why is this so surprising to everyone? We discuss the need for a full rebuild and why the team should strongly consider moving on from Auston Matthews and/or William Nylander to truly turn the page and start fresh. We also break down the personality traits we'd like to see in the next general manager and preview this weekend's back-to-back against Carolina and Ottawa.

| 3/13/26 | Leafs Captain Auston Matthews Injured on Gudas Cheap Shot | Rally to Beat Ducks | The Toronto Maple Leafs finally got back in the win column Thursday night with a 6-4 victory over the Anaheim Ducks, a game that saw Radko Gudas cheap shot Auston Matthews with a dirty knee-on-knee hit. We break down the Leafs' lack of response in the moment, followed by the edge they showed in the 3rd period that we haven't seen all season. We also discuss the culture issues within the team and MLSE as a whole, and predict that was likely the last we'll see of Auston Matthews this season.
