Are the Leafs Soft? w/ Mike McKenna

Hour 2 of The FAN Morning Show kicks off with Mike McKenna, former NHL goalie and current analyst for DailyFaceoff.com, stopping by to discuss his polarizing article about the Maple Leafs’ lack of toughness, how their style of play will translate to the postseason, Ilya Samsonov rediscovering his swagger with the Leafs, and why a goaltending rotation isn’t sustainable come playoff time. Then, Sportsnet’s Ben Nicholson-Smith checks in to chat about the Blue Jays taking a calculated risk on free agent pitcher Chad Green, his unique contract structure, and what role he could inherit upon his return from Tommy John surgery (28:54). Later, Ailish and Justin react to reports out of New Zealand suggesting John Herdman could be taking over the country’s men’s national team (44:25).
