With the season ending injury to Auston Matthews still dominating the news, Jonas and James discuss the job of NHL player safety, and how it needs to be improved. They dissect the lack of response and team toughness from the Maple Leafs, and if Auston Matthews has played his last game for the Leafs? Plus, the boys talk about the team needing a new leader with a definitive plan, the suddenly hot Leafs, possibly playing themselves out of a top 5 pick and who exactly Bo Groulx is?
