The Toronto Maple Leafs head into Edmonton for Game 57 — the final game before the Olympic break — with everything on the table. Can the Leafs actually build a late push, or is the smarter play to sell pieces and stockpile assets heading into the trade deadline stretch? We run through the full projected lineup, debate usage around Auston Matthews and Max Domi, spotlight William Nylander’s impact since returning, and dig into Matthew Knies opening up about a knee injury. Plus, is this a showcase night for Oliver Ekman-Larsson with the power play quarterback role up for grabs?

The Toronto Maple Leafs head to Calgary for Game 56 against the Calgary Flames with a 10:00pm ET puck drop, and all eyes are on how Toronto responds with Morgan Rielly out. We break down what his absence means, why the Leafs have oddly found success without him, and what needs to carry over from the win in Vancouver. Then it’s a full look at tonight’s forward lines, defence pairings, power-play units (including Oliver Ekman-Larsson getting the PP1 look), and the goaltending matchup with Joseph Woll set to face Dustin Wolf at the Saddledome. We wrap with the betting board, a player-prop lean, and a reminder that a win tonight could make things interesting heading into the break.Reminder: This video may reference betting lines due to sponsorship.

The Toronto Maple Leafs head west for Game 54 against the Seattle Kraken, and the frustration around lineup decisions continues to grow. With Toronto Maple Leafs facing a late 10 p.m. ET puck drop in Seattle, this game preview breaks down a lineup that remains largely unchanged — and increasingly difficult to justify. William Nylander skated but remains out, leaving Auston Matthews once again asked to drive a line with Bobby McMann and Max Domi. The discussion dives deep into Matthews’ ability to carry his own line, the defensive issues that persist, and why young players like Easton Cowan continue to lose ice time. There’s also sharp criticism of usage decisions under head coach Craig Berube, questions about development, and growing concerns about letting assets walk for nothing. Goaltending, defensive pairings, power-play struggles, and a featured best bet round out the preview before the Leafs take on the Seattle Kraken.
