Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee recap Monday night’s 2-0 Toronto Maple Leafs win over the Tampa Bay Lightning. The guys discuss Dennis Hildeby’s workload going forward, if Bobby McMann should be suspended after his game misconduct, and Toronto’s power play struggles. Later, former NHL goaltender and CEO of Clear Sight Analytics Steve Valiquette joins the show to share his thoughts on the ‘parity’ around the league, the Leafs’ situation in net, the less than ideal environment Thatcher Demko faces in Vancouver, and more.

Between Steve and Doug, can't get much better than this
Best show on the air
What if he's a 60 game guy? BINGO
San Jose = NOT division or conference.
Edmonton = NOT division or conference..
Neither game matters… Put in Peksa , for all we care… They are NOT 4 point games.
Do not push Woll too fast for a 2 point game.
I have more faith in HellyBeast/Actyomnov tandem , than the healthy but unlimber Stolarz.
I'm about to get into this one at some point tonight. Bunkis and McKee were sooo good last night on Leafs Talk..2 wolves salivating after the 'Beast' holds down camp.
Best since patches
Keep Dennis in bubble wrap if he isn't on the ice playing in an official NHL game for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Pointer finally scores ⚡️
Did you guys blow the Christmas decoration budget , all $12.00 of it on the set lol😂
Fire the power play coach!!! Everything else has improved. Bring in Boudreau
on the whole leafs have a bad ability of judging talent
Let’s see if Hildeby is made out of glass like the other two before we do anything crazy
Are Woll n Stolarz vegans?
Lose the nerd.
What's the jersey behind JB?
Kyper 100 percent right about the McMann thing. Tiny bonk on the shoulder. Not even close to the knee, and the Trouba swing was worse and didn't get suspended.
100 percent there is a Toronto tax. The NHL never wants to give Toronto any favours because they are worried about being accused of such. We are bottom in PPs every year, our guys get suspended more etc.
Let double A get a start. The last thing the Leafs need is to overplay their starting goalie for the third time this season. Akhtyamov on Thursday, Hildeby on Saturday.
Hey Sammy, get George Parros on the show and ask him the tough questions. Like why do they tax the leafs 😂
You keep talkabout money that has nothing to do with productivity
It's crazy too because every time there is an incident involving the Leafs, the result (injury or not) is ALLLLLLLLWAAAYYYYYYS taken into account………and yet……….in this case Mermis WAS injured (leafs) and the Tampa player WASN'T and YET STILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL The Leafs are the ones to get the example.
It's honestly unequivocal proof that Parros just can't help himself.
I do like JB's/Kyper's point about 'not biased' though, and it simply being more about extra pressure on them to get it right because more eyes are watching.
Still absolute garbage that the Leafs have to deal with though. Feels so unfair. Just like how every player seems to play their hardest against us like its game 7. GUESS THEMS THE BRAKES EH
He’s the “HildaBeast”………
Thought you would have spent more time regarding the Leafs finally playing a team gritty game . If Bobby gets a game misconduct it might be the best game off of his career .
Damn I hate youtube, ads ever few mins. Sickening.
