Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill tackle the Biggest Leafs Debates Right Now. They discuss which new addition faces the most pressure, who will make the biggest impact, and which newcomer is most likely to become a fan favourite. They also debate which current Maple Leaf has the most to prove heading into the 2026-27 season, which player is poised to surprise everyone, and the one move they believe John Chayka still needs to make before the season begins.

Since you are the only podcast I bother to listen to due to your content as well as being true to yourselves, I am glad you continue on during these summer months. Keep up the good work.
I’m personally not a fan of that sissons signing a really not great price for his role but I hope he proves me wrong
Regarding Morgan; why not play him as a number six D Man or try him on the fourth line as a winger. I realize it’s a lot of money for either one of those scenarios and also, I agree with Jay in that we need to win the trade.
Thanks ladies
Media was big on Roy, Macelli, Laughton but that never really happened. Let’s see how it goes
Rielly and Joshua to Pittsburg for Karlsson and pick(s)
The constant drop PP nonsense is brutal if you don't have puck moving and fast players capable of doing that. Let's see if these new Leafs can create some pressure and get some shots, crowd the net for some good ole fashioned Dave Andreychuk kind of goals!
‘I’m married to Morgan Fairchild, yeah, that’s the ticket’
Can we just protect McKenna, lololol
Rielly is not a top 4 dman and at 7.5 he needs to go. Get a draft pick just get rid of that contract
I do not know if sombody told this guys that Bob does not come with Stanley Cup. Bob was terrible during last season and is not Florida defence – he faced least shots in the leage, but still was terrible. You could depend on him last season to let in goal when games were on the line. Glad you guy got him. No chance to get to playoffs with him
Stolarz going be amazing this year than we going trade him for a top 4 D.
It's nice to see the love flourish between Nick and Dave right in front of our eyes! I'm sure he'll be missing you while he's gone. Xoxo
Moving rielly makes the team better..sure an asset would be nice….but.. to be realistic…a pick would be great.
Insulate Rielly….with whom? Or better yet…the press box
RIELLY.NOT BEING A LEAF IS BETTER, sorry Rosie. Disagree with ya on that one
Average age of Leafs Stanley Cup winning team in 1967, 31. The oldest in the NHL
Nobody wants Rielly at $7.5 sheets
Johnny Bower was great at 38 better nutrition and wellness these days 😂💙🤍🏒🥅
Lnies have a bounce back…did he not have a career year?? Wtf is he bouncing back from
McKenna has alot of marner type plays and then some has a killer shot already, will have to learn basic defense NHL style, kid's alright 😜
Leafs dont have an Alpha. Sorry, but counting on Matthews has been a decade long problem. Especially the beast 2 seasons. 😊
Rielly was wheeling at the offensive blue beginning of last season, had clearly been working on his edgework in the summer and at camp. Now that he just has to create enough space to hit his partner between the skates for free apples I predict 10-15G and 40-50A moving pucks to McKenna, Roslovic, Raddysh plus the regulars, and relying on Paul and a rejuvinated bottom 6 plus Bob, Stolarz, and AA to carry the D zone load. Surely the guy being embedded with every system on PP and PK in Toronto for a decade also makes him an asset to leverage rrying to gel all these new guys in with the regulars, too. Next season maybe he's worth a good pick to someone, but doesn't look like it right now. So then 7.5 cap space buys who exactly right now? Logan Stanley for 5M? His clap bomb snipe was built different last year but I'll take Rielly's offensive reads despite the lackluster coverage in the D zone over league leading PIMs and can't move sideways any day. Grass is always greener and 7.5M is the new 4-5M which he is definitely worth.
A reminder for anyone left who thinks Riley should be moved :
Over the last 20 games of the season when the leafs goal differential was minus30, one of the worst in the league, the team was in disarray and tanking, Riley had the best plus/minus of all the defensemen on the team, an EVEN rating. How are you the worst defender on a minus 30 team and have an EVEN rating?
What about BOB…crank up Bonnie M…Rasputin…Russia’s greatest love machine 🎶🎶🎶😎👍
They're hoping Reily gets a spark, and trade him late in season for higher value
Great show Boys, no bs just a chat. Nice
Leaf fans forget….but Stolarz was basically Leafs MVP heading into 2025 Playoffs. Why did he fall off?
because his team let him get physically beaten by the opposing team multiple times without any protection. He lost his spirit bc he saw infront of him the spirit wasnt there.
Fan favourite Bob
Bob fan favourite
I stuttered haha
