    Chris Pronger Interview

    Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill are joined by HHOFer Chris Pronger for a no-holds-barred conversation on the Maple Leafs. Pronger weighs in on Toronto’s first game against Radko Gudas following the knee-on-knee hit that ended Auston Matthews’ season—and doesn’t hold back on his disappointment in the team’s lack of response. Looking ahead to the rematch, he outlines what he expects from the Leafs (spoiler: not much). He also discusses Matthews’ road to recovery, admitting it’s unfamiliar territory for him given how his own teammates always had his back. Beyond that, Pronger breaks down Toronto’s core issues, what needs to change, and whether Craig Berube and Brad Treliving survive this mess. Plus, thoughts on Bruce Cassidy’s firing in Vegas, John Tortorella’s potential fit there, and whether Cassidy could make sense in Toronto if changes are made behind the bench. To wrap, Pronger answers the big question: if the Leafs come calling this offseason—would he take the meeting? #LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️ / @theleafsnation401 SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

    Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill break down Toronto’s ugly 5-1 loss in St. Louis. Then, the focus shifts to Anaheim, as the Leafs gear up for their first meeting with Radko Gudas since March 12th — the night he took out Auston Matthews. How will the Leafs respond? Additionally, the boys dissect the Bruce Cassidy firing in Vegas, & if he would make sense in Toronto —assuming they move on from Craig Berube. Plus, Hockey Hall of Famer Chris Pronger joins the show to share his thoughts on the Leafs’ season & how he would handle the Gudas situation in this game. 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️  / @theleafsnation401   SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365: http://www.bet365.ca/  Gambling can be addictive, please play responsibly.

    Jordan Schmaltz Interview

    Former NHLer & Home By 3 podcast co-host Jordan Schmaltz joined Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill to dish on all things Leafs. Before diving into Toronto, Schmaltz recapped his experience cranking the siren at a Vegas Golden Knights game on Thursday night. From there, the conversation shifted to Mitch Marner—how he’s looked lately, his first season in Vegas, and the age-old question: who misses who more—Marner or Auston Matthews? Schmaltz also weighed in on Matthews’ future, floating the idea of Utah as a potential dark horse destination if both sides ever decide it’s time for a change. He then touched on the futures of Brad Treliving and Craig Berube, and who could replace them if the Leafs opt to shake things up—mentioning Doug Armstrong, whom he played for in St. Louis. To wrap things up, Schmaltz discussed William Nylander’s up-and-down season and shared his expectations for how the Leafs will respond in their first matchup against Radko Gudas on Monday night in Anaheim following the Matthews knee-on-knee incident. #LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️ / @theleafsnation401 SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

    Anti-Tank Goaltending Strikes Again 😂 ft. Peter Mansbridge

    Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill break down Toronto’s 4-3 win over the New York Rangers, a game they probably had no business winning—if you’re team tank, that is. Enter Joseph Woll, who slammed the door with a ridiculous 40-save performance to once again derail the draft lottery dreams. Plus, Canadian broadcasting icon Peter Mansbridge stops by to talk about his beloved Maple Leafs, what’s gone wrong during this train wreck of a season, and whether there’s any hope left for this group moving forward. 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️  / @theleafsnation401   SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365: http://www.bet365.ca/  Gambling can be addictive, please play responsibly.

    Peter Mansbridge Interview

    Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill welcome legendary Canadian news icon Peter Mansbridge to the show for a wide-ranging conversation on his beloved Maple Leafs. Mansbridge doesn’t mince words when asked to write the “headline” for the 2025–26 season: MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT. From there, the discussion dives into who’s ultimately responsible for the mess, how much weight injuries should actually carry, and what the messaging should be at season’s end—especially after last year’s “DNA change” mantra. They also get into Mansbridge’s unique perspective on Keith Pelley and what drives his leadership style, before shifting to the futures of Craig Berube and Brad Treliving amid mounting pressure. Plus, a deep dive into the core: what comes next for Auston Matthews and William Nylander—with particular focus on Matthews and the expectations that come with being the face of the franchise. #LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️ / @theleafsnation401 SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.

    Dave Feschuk Interview

    Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill are joined by Dave Feschuk of The Toronto Star to break down the Maple Leafs’ surprising 4-2 win in Boston. While the result may not help Toronto’s draft positioning, the guys discuss the team’s strong effort and growing commitment to sticking up for one another—and how that’s resonating. Feschuk weighs in on Easton Cowan’s immediate response to Nikita Zadorov’s questionable hit on John Tavares, plus offers his early assessment of Cowan’s rookie campaign. From there, the conversation shifts to the big picture: a pivotal offseason ahead, uncertainty surrounding who will be calling the shots, Brad Treliving’s future, and the possibility of a blockbuster trade. They also dive into Matthew Knies’ outlook (and why Feschuk believes he’ll be back), whether there’s any scenario where Craig Berube sticks around, and what Feschuk’s top priority would be if he were running the Leafs this summer. #LeafsForever #LeafsMorningTake 🚨 Subscribe to Leafs Nation on Youtube!🚨 ➡️ / @theleafsnation401 SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!! 👍🏼Powered by @bet365.
