from Locked On Leafs - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Maple Leafs · host Locked On Podcast Network

The Toronto Maple Leafs’ front office search faces fresh scrutiny as John Chayka emerges as a potential GM candidate—sparking fierce debate among fans. Mike DiStefano and Dave Morassutti question Chayka’s track record and why this is the direction the Leafs are considering. Elsewhere, the Toronto Marlies surge into the next round of the Calder Cup Playoffs, while the NHL postseason heats up with the Montreal Canadiens and Tampa Bay Lightning locked in an intense battle. Insights on Mitch Marner’s playoff production, the Senators’ “leafy” playoff exit, and play-by-play reactions to big hits and goaltending changes set the stage for the week’s most heated hockey debates.   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
