Berube Out of Answers, Leafs Dismantled in D.C. ft. Joe Bowen



Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill recap the Leafs’ embarrassing 4–0 shutout loss in Washington, a night where Toronto showed no passion, no push, and no response. Flat from puck drop to final horn, the Leafs were dismantled by a Capitals team that wanted it more — and it wasn’t close. Postgame, Craig Berube appeared out of answers and visibly defeated, prompting a serious and uncomfortable discussion: is it already time to consider a coaching change?

Plus, Joe Bowen joins the show fresh off being honoured on Holy Mackinaw Night, sharing stories, reflections, and what it meant to be celebrated by Leafs Nation. The boys also look ahead to a daunting back-to-back in Nashville and Dallas, as Toronto searches — desperately — for signs of life and accountability.

A blunt, emotional episode after one of the Leafs’ lowest points of the season.

  1. The reporters always walk on egg shells and never ask the players the hard question. Why aren’t they asking the players why the fuck there all of a sudden not giving any effort .

  2. Wendel Clark said it best that your playing hockey in the NHL your getting paid awesome money everybody has bad games but common you give us effort and you lose fine but common really

  3. Bowen was talking about bunch of nonsense. Lots of respect for him. However, so because Buffalo is a dumpster fire we should be happy with mediocre play? Because we’ve made the playoffs every year and choked we should be okay with that ? I understand the sentiment but the take he had is a bit out of touch with reality.

  4. Been a leaf fan for over 50 years seen it all but come on because of marner leaves and what the whole team is mad like what the hell you give up on your coach me Andrews your the captain hello

  5. The Leafs, at least their so called stars aren’t built to play Berube hockey. They’re prima Dona’s who stay on the outside instead of crashing the net. The worst part about that is it’s starting to affect Knies play. Like Mathews and William Bystander got their money, it’s like they’re showing Knies hey, just show up and get paid.

  6. You would think after the Jays did what they the ❤️ to be pros are supposed to play like I guess the easiest way to go is fire the coach same on them players

  7. I feel badly for Berube. To have these gutless, entitled clowns as a team is pathetic. No pride no guts shameful floaters

  8. Brad needs to call a meeting with Auston and find out if he really wants to be a leaf. Cause if there’s a chance of him being traded now’s the time. They can probably fetch a really good return.

  9. Matthews is the highest payed player in the NHL he's currently 105th in the league in scoring. It's not all his fault but it's not right.

  10. The pathetic lack of effort from Mathews and Nylander should be a major red flag to any coach thinking about coming to Toronto when inevitably Berube gets fired because he can't pander to these spoilt brats.
