    Canada Crushes Czechia, Switzerland Next, & Where's Willy? 🤔 ft. Curtis Joseph

    Nick Alberga, Jay Rosehill, and Zack Phillips break down Canada’s emphatic 5-0 beatdown of Czechia in its Milan Games opener. Additionally, they preview the second half of the back-to-back as Canada tangles with Switzerland. They also zero in on the Leafs contingent at the Games — Auston Matthews captaining Team USA and the Swedish duo of William Nylander and Oliver Ekman-Larsson. Speaking of Nylander, he missed another practice on Thursday. While there’s been no official confirmation, it’s clear he’s still managing that lingering groin issue. The guys discuss the level of concern and what it could mean for both Sweden and Toronto down the stretch. Plus, former Canadian Olympic gold medalist and Maple Leafs legend Curtis Joseph stops by to share his thoughts on the tournament and the Maple Leafs as well. #LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️ / @theleafsnation401 SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

    Curtis Joseph Interview

    Former NHL goaltender and Maple Leafs icon Curtis Joseph joined Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill to break down Team Canada’s strong start at the Milan Games and what he’s seeing from Jordan Binnington between the pipes. Joseph called Canada’s opener “flawless,” praising Binnington’s swagger, puck-handling, and ability to rise to the moment when doubted. He explained why confidence is everything for a goaltender, why he’d give Logan Thompson a look in a back-to-back scenario, and why having two goalies ready to go is crucial in a short tournament.

Cujo also reflected on what it means to have NHL players back on the Olympic stage, sharing stories about being around legends like Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux and how those experiences elevate younger stars. The conversation shifted to the Maple Leafs, where Joseph emphasized the importance of consistent, healthy goaltending from Anthony Stolarz and Joseph Woll if Toronto hopes to make noise in tight, playoff-style games. The interview wrapped with Joseph addressing the Leafs’ uphill climb — six points out with 25 games remaining — and delivering a message of belief. He says this team is tougher, built for 2-1 and 3-2 hockey, and if they get in, they can surprise people. #LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️ / @theleafsnation401 SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

    Anthony Stewart Interview

    Former NHLer & TSN Leafs Analyst Anthony Stewart joined Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill to break down Toronto heading into the Olympic break. With the Leafs riding a three-game win streak but still sitting six points back with 25 games to go, Stewart weighed in on whether he’s starting to believe again — and why the goaltending has caught his eye. Stewart also identified the most catchable team in the standings, detailed what he thinks Brad Treliving’s trade deadline approach should look like, and made it clear the Leafs should re-sign Bobby McMann — not trade him. The conversation wrapped with a candid look at what could happen if Toronto misses the playoffs, with Stewart predicting jobs would be lost. After a couple of deep exhales, Stewart closed by planting his flag: he believes the Leafs WILL make the Stanley Cup Playoffs. #LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️ / @theleafsnation401 SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.
