Listen now
Description
JD lays out what went wrong, what we learned and what should be next for the Toronto Maple Leafs following another first-round playoff loss (00:00). Mike Futa, former NHL executive and analyst with Sportsnet, discusses Matthew Tkachuk's poke at the Leafs, how a front office goes about trading a player with a no movement clause, what Sheldon Keefe speaking to the media on locker clean-out day could suggest and an observation about the relationship between Brad Treliving and Brendan Shanahan (28:00). Kris Versteeg, two-time Stanley Cup champion and creator of the Klevr app, breaks down what locker-room clean out day is like, how the Leafs were sleeping on the series-winning goal, Sheldon Keefe's shortcomings, if Mitch Marner's criticism has been overblown, how the rest of the NHL views the Leafs and if Morgan Rielly should be on the trading block (50:00). The show ends with Jays thoughts and 'What We Missed!'
