Locked On Leafs - Daily Podcast On The Toronto Maple Leafs Locked On Podcast Network

Silly season has begun in the NHL, with some big deals coming down, even with the Stanley Cup Final still not being decided. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti discuss the Jacob Markstrom trade between the Calgary Flames and New Jersey Devils and the price paid to get the deal done. They move on to the Winnipeg Jets and Washington Capitals coming together on a perplexing trade with Pierre-Luc Dubois and Darcy Kuemper getting exchanged. To end the show, Mike and Dave decide to look at the best remaining goalies on the trade market and whether the free agent market is the better option when looking at how their cap situation currently sits.

It appears the Stanley Cup Final is far from over, while the Toronto Maple Leafs could be keeping tabs on a top free-agent forward. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti give their thoughts on the Edmonton Oilers picking up another win to force a Game 6 in the Stanley Cup Final as Connor McDavid continues to carry his team on his back which makes the guys wonder if McDavid is awarded the Conn Smythe trophy win or lose. They move on to the report by Frank Seravalli saying that the team could be looking at getting in on the Jake Guentzel sweepstakes if they decide to trade Mitch Marner, more conversations with Tyler Bertuzzi and wonder if Barclay Goodrow could be a potential fit after he was placed on waivers. Mike and Dave then shift gears to a Mailbag question about Cade Webber and whether the Filip Hronek deal impacts the free agent market for defencemen.

Is there a possibility the Toronto Maple Leafs will prioritize bringing back Mitch Marner if the right trade isn't out there? Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti start the show by giving their thoughts on the NBA FInals and why it reminds us of why the NHL does the best trophy ceremony. They also discuss if they think the Florida Panthers will end the series or if the Edmonton Oilers were able to find some momentum. They give their thoughts on Darren Dreger saying he thinks Leafs GM Brad Treliving would prefer to Marner rather than trade him and if it's the right path. To end the show, Mike and Dave grab a new Mailbag question which prompted an interesting discussion.

The Toronto Maple Leafs will likely look to go big-game hunting in free agency with two of the top defencemen on the top of their wishlist. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti give their thoughts on Guy Boucher not returning to the coaching staff. They shift their focus to the report that Brandon Montour and Chris Tanev are on the top of the Leafs' wishlist and what that could potentially cost. They return to the Mailbag questions, looking at what the future could look like for Easton Cowan and Timothy Liljegren. The questions on the Mitch Marner situation continue to roll in, plus a question on what Jake McCabe's comparable could be on his next deal, and the guys offer their ranking of the top 5 NHL players of all time.

You have questions about the Toronto Maple Leafs, and we have some answers. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti start the show with a look at the Florida Panthers taking a commanding 3-0 lead in the Stanley Cup Final. They spend the rest of the show by opening their first Mailbag off the off-season, where they discuss what they would offer for Jacob Chychrun, who they would want to bring back from a different Leafs era, what would be the deadset number for Mitch Marner on a contract, a trade they would like to see the Leafs make and more!

The Toronto Maple Leafs remain focused on making big changes to their blue line, but could Mitch Marner be used in a blockbuster with the Vegas Golden Knights? Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti discuss some nuggets from Elliotte Friedman's appearance on the Leafs Morning Take, including the team's desire to add at least two top defencemen in free agency. Mike then brings up a player that he thinks would be worth considering, even if it means adding a left-shot defenceman, and it appears the Leafs haven't been in conversation on a new deal for Timothy Liljegren. To end the show, Mike and Dave discuss what Friedman had to say about the Vegas Golden Knights as a team that would be interested in a Marner trade, what that could entail and if there should be a defined timeline to get a trade done.
