It’s been just over 2 weeks since the Leafs were eliminated from the playoffs, but it feels like such a long time ago! The Ladies have been busy and the Leafs added to this by taking care of some business in the past couple weeks, giving us even more to discuss--which we love!
In this episode we get you up-to-date with the latest team news and we give the team our grades for the 2021-22 regular season. Find out who made our honour roll, where we saw improvements and where things didn’t go so well. Leafs Nation is very much into the details, so as a bonus, we looked back and compared notes with our gradings from the 2019-20 season. The comparison made for some fun discussion!
Continuing with some fun, the regular season was impressive with a lot of player and franchise records being broken! Many of these record breaking moments made our LTL Highlight Reel and we’ve chosen our top 3 highlight reel moments of the 2021-22 regular season. Tune in to find out who made the best of the LTL Highlight Reel!
No doubt the Leafs regular season was a success, but once again it ended in heartbreak, losing in a Game 7, in the first round of the playoffs! What was the message from Shanahan and company after losing in the first round for the 6th time in the Auston Matthews era? We discuss this, and let’s just say we weren’t that impressed with what management had to say!
Obviously, the Stanley Cup Playoffs aren’t as exciting when our Leafs aren’t in it. We’re not cheering for any particular team, but there are a few ex-Leafs that are still in the dance and we wonder if any of them will drink from Lord Stanley’s mug! We'll undoubtedly have a better idea in a couple of weeks. Until then... Go Leafs Go!
