Leafs DELIVER Dignified Tank Result In Loss To Islanders

About this episode
The Toronto Maple Leafs finally got back to being in a dignified “tank mode,” falling 3-1 to the New York Islanders. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti break down the game, spotlighting Bo Groulx’s promising bottom-six performance and the penalty kill’s costly letdowns. Is it time for the team to be experimenting with the lineup by having William Nylander play at centre?   Off the ice, George Parros faces scrutiny for standing by Radko Gudas’ five-game suspension for his knee-on-knee hit on Auston Matthews—are NHL player safety protocols due for an overhaul? The episode also highlights Toronto’s newest prospect signee, Vincent Borgesi, and confronts the reality of the Maple Leafs prospect pool, which got a poor ranking by The Athletic.
