TheLeafsNation After Dark

The Toronto Maple Leafs take on the Winnipeg Jets in Game 40, and Zack Phillips has your full game preview as the Leafs look to climb back into the playoff race while Winnipeg sits at the bottom of the NHL standings. With Auston Matthews returning to the lineup, Zack breaks down how his presence reshapes the forward units, including the return of the Matthews–Domi–Knies trio and whether the Leafs should’ve kept Bobby McMann–Domi–Matthews together after strong showings. We also look at the evolving roles of Matias Maccelli, Nic Robertson, Easton Cowan, and how Craig Berube is balancing development versus winning now. Plus: blue line expectations with Rielly–Myers, the Leafs’ surging power play, Joseph Woll getting the start, and why Bobby McMann’s shot volume makes him tonight’s featured best bet. A full, detailed breakdown of every line, matchup, storyline, and betting angle you need before puck drop. Presented by Bet365.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Powered by @bet365.

The Toronto Maple Leafs limp into Game 39 against the New Jersey Devils with one of their most chaotic injury reports of the season. In today’s pregame show, we break down what Craig Berube revealed about William Nylander (day-to-day), Auston Matthews (game-time decision), Chris Tanev’s concerning lower-body issue, and the scary situation surrounding Dakota Joshua. We walk through the new-look forward lines, a heavily patched-together blue line featuring Morgan Rielly, Jake McCabe and Filip Král–Myers rotation, plus what Joseph Woll needs to do against Jacob Markstrom. We also look at the updated playoff math and why every point inside the conference matters. We close the show with our Best Bet segment (no spoilers here) and what to watch for as Toronto tries to survive another undermanned night.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Powered by @bet365.
