Knee Jerk Reaction: A blown third period lead is becoming the norm for Maple Leafs A third period collapse undid some mid-game signs of life as the Toronto Maple Leafs fall 3-2 to the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday night. There were bright spots. The Maple Leafs pinning the Blackhawks in the own end and Morgan Rielly putting on an offensive zone clinic and ultimately finding the back of the net…

Knee Jerk Reaction: A blown third period lead is becoming the norm for Maple Leafs

Maple Leafs claim Troy Stecher off waivers from Oilers, place Anthony Stolarz on injured reserve The Toronto Maple Leafs announced a pair of roster transactions on Saturday, claiming defenceman Troy Stecher off waivers from the Edmonton Oilers and placing goaltender Anthony Stolarz on injured reserve (IR). Stecher, 31, is a right-handed defenceman who was in his third season with the Oilers after stops with four other NHL teams before the…

Final Thoughts

Toronto comes to Chicago under pressure to halt its slide, while Chicago aims to build momentum at home.
Joseph Woll is starting for his first time this season. Easton Cowan might be inserted into the line up after playing 2 games for the Marlies. He has 1 ast in 2 games played.

Matchup to Watch

Offensive production from leaders: For Toronto, William Nylander is a major contributor (25 points this season) and will be crucial. Chicago’s young star Connor Bedard (10 goals, 16 assists) needs to continue driving their attack.

At home, they’ll have the crowd behind them and the advantage of facing a Leafs team that’s struggling to find consistent form.

Chicago Blackhawks

Record: 8-5-4 this season.

They boast one of the stronger defenses in the league — allowing around 2.6 goals per game.

Offensively moderate: they average about 3.3 goals per game.

They’re entering this game on a four-game losing streak.

Key injuries / lineup concerns: Auston Matthews is out. Stolarz is injured too.

Toronto Maple Leafs

Currently 8-8-2 on the season.

Offensively, they are one of the stronger squads: averaging ~3.6 goals per game.

Defensively, however, they are among the weakest: surrendering around 3.8 goals per game and ranking near the bottom in ‘goals against’.

18 years old and leading all NHL defensemen in goals. Matthew Schaefer is special 👏🔥

This should be fun!

Craig Berube says Maple Leafs ‘sat back too much’ in fourth straight loss The Toronto Maple Leafs are going through it right now, there’s no other way to put it. They’re scoring goals, but they’re coming up short in almost every other area of the game which is making the goal-scoring a moot point. They aren’t getting number one performances from their number one goaltender, and they can’t…

George Springer finished 7th in AL MVP Award voting.

A remarkable season in every way. Few players in baseball exceeded expectation like Springer did and he did it at 36.

The most important player, I’d argue, on the 2025 #BlueJays

Really really hard to watch them. 9 shots softer 45 minutes of play awful!

Pity point

Very messed up situation the Leafs are in.

The David Kampf era in Toronto is coming to an end

How come there is no feature that shows how many people viewed their posts?

How is this not possible?

Anthony Rendon’s contract is the worst contract in baseball history 💯
