This week we break the time-space continuum and are joined by Ruby all the way from Australia! Did we record Saturday night or midday Sunday? Who’s to say! We breakdown the first Leaf to Leaf videos of the season, discuss the game of musical chairs that is the Leafs’ roster, plan Taylor Hall’s retirement in the woods, and fix the All Star Weekend — you’re welcome NHL! We end the episode with our new favourite game, Will It Blend? (Thank you Kit for the suggestion!) Will Travis Dermott and Andre ...

Another week, another reason to burn hockey to the ground. This week we’re joined by Keeks to break down the changes Sheldon Keefe has been making, invite Mike Babcock to catch these hands, and break down the Bill Peters fiasco. Inspired by Disney+ and the NHL forcing players to try to name Disney Princesses, we match some hockeys with with Disney villain personas.

Do you feel that change in the air? Those are the winds of change baby, and boy are we ready to celebrate! We cheer the firing of Mike Babcock by recording our first drunk episode, and it sure is a doozy. We reminisce on the Babcock era*, look ahead to Keefe season, and discuss some wins … remember those? We also take a deep dive into the most recent Leafs’ Blueprint (seriously, we go deep), break down spitgate, and decide who’s who in our Leafs AUs. * This episode was recorded prior to the news...

Ding dong the witch is dead! Which old witch? The Don Cherry witch! We can’t help but feel giddy despite the Leafs’ attempts to crush our spirits. We discuss our seemingly endless injuries, big guys in little baths, and the importance of pre-game dog cuddles. We celebrate the firing of Don Cherry and delve into what the varying reactions say about the state of hockey culture.

Deeps breaths y’all, it’s time for a vibe check. This week we take on our greatest challenge: Good Vibes™ only. Were we successful? You be the judge. We discuss the fashion icon William Andrew Michael Junior Nylander Altelius, the ongoing rollercoaster of emotion that is the Nic Petan situation, and apply some critical theory to hockey culture — The Athletic, but make it JSTOR. Finally, we begin our pivot to a Harry Potter podcast by sorting some teams, players, and even coaches. Come for the ho...

Is it possible to have a Halloween content hangover? Because we’re pretty sure we have one. This week we put on our tinfoil hats to theorize the reason Rielly’s been missing practices, dread running into Tyson Barrie on the TTC (yes, even the host in Ottawa), and break down the good, bad, and the furry of Hockey Halloween. Back by popular demand, we choose even MORE costumes for our NHL odd couples. It’s our podcast and we’ll repeat segments if we want to, you’re not our real moms....

Darkness falls on the SBA. A murder of crows rest upon Legends Row. A chill runs through the air. Is it the Halloween season or the curse of Toronto Maple.Leafs? Who’s to say, really. This week we try not to dwell too much on the cursed reality that is Leafs fandom. We talk friendships, puppies, and just how incredibly weird hockey players can be. Is it cool to make your bro a slideshow of fights you lost? Just checking. Finally, as an attempt of inter league unity, we force the NHL to host a Ha...

We love and respect one Maple Leaf and one Maple Leaf only, Frederik Gauthier. This week we’re joined by Laura, host of the Under-Review podcast, to break down this week in Leafs. Tune in as we wax poetically about Frederik Gauthier, contemplate becoming Arizona Coyotes fans, and brainstorm our own lineup solutions (decisions based on energy rather than positions of course).

Happy Leafsgiving! This year we’re thankful for all of our wonderful listeners and the bottom 6 Leafs. Top 6 who? This week we pledge our swords to Jon Lee-Olsen, get in our feelings over Patrick Marleau, and confront the elephant in the room — what’s up with Marner & Tavares? We also trade in our arts degrees for a Bachelor of Science and predict the remainder of the NHL season based on these wacky first few weeks. Results may vary. (Did we forget the Avs are undefeated? Maybe. We’re not re...

Real hockey is BACK baby! This week we break down the week in games, discuss Captain Pyjama Boy, yell about play by play announcers behaving badly, and help the Leafs check off their fall bucket lists.
