I post mostly about the Toronto Maple Leafs … The NHL … hockey … hiking … Celiac Disease … and other things, too, like my book AUSTON MATTHEWS: A LIFE IN HOCKEY. Preorder here: https://www.simonandschuster.ca/books/Auston-Matthews/Kevin-McGran/97816680630

Heading into free agency, here's my best guess at how coach Craig Berube might see the Leafs.

Mitch Marner will wear number 93 with the Vegas Golden Knights… It was the number he wanted in Toronto back in 2015 when he was drafted to honour his favourite player Doug Gilmour … It was only an honoured number then… But Lou wanted his players to wear old-fashioned hockey numbers

l not sure when the Marner sign ‘n trade will be made official… But he’s owed an $11 million signing bonus … presumably the move will be official before that payment is due.

Maple Leafs close the book on Mitch Marner with $96-million Vegas sign-and-trade: ‘He’s the ultimate competitor’ Marner gets $96 million (U.S.) over eight years and joins the Golden Knights for centre Nicolas Roy, marking the end of an era in Toronto.

The Mitch Marner era is over in Toronto

Interesting numbers regarding the Leafs core players in elimination games.
The team is 1-12 since 2018, but individually:

Max Domi scores in overtime and continues a family tradition as Leafs take Game 2 against Senators. ‘We needed that one’ Max Domi’s shot won the game less than four minutes into the extra period to give Leafs a 2-0 series lead over Senators.

Max Domi was the #Leafs overtime hero… he and his dad become the first father-son duo to score for the same team against the same team in the Stanley Cup playoffs … www.thestar.com/sports/leafs...

Maple Leafs vs. Senators: No changes in net for either team in Game 2; tickets still available There were fears that Toronto’s Anthony Stolarz after he didn’t practise while Linus Ullmark had a rough game for Ottawa, giving up six goals on Sunday.

The Leafs have enjoyed playoff success against the Senators. Looking back at the Battle of Ontario Over the course of four head-to-head playoff series in five years, it was a lot of fun for the Maple Leafs, and not so much for the Ottawa Senators.

Why John Tavares earned the Maple Leafs’ Bill Masterton Award nomination Despite several potential distractions, Tavares’ season has been so strong that it’s hard to imagine the Leafs without him.

Until David Kampf and Jake McCabe come back (they're not on this trip), the Leafs can't "rest" anyone. They don't have salary cap space to bring up Marlies. #LeafsForever

Marlies announcer @SportsVoiceGuy Simon Bennett comes in relief of an ailing Mike Ross @RossyOnTheMic here at Scotiabank Arena. Bennett had to wait until the Marlies game was over to get over for the flu-ridden Ross, who started the game.
