"Firing Treliving was the most logical first step, and given Treliving’s lack of activity all season, it actually marks the best move the organization has made all year."

For the Maple Leafs, the response in Anaheim tonight shouldn’t change, whether Radko Gudas plays or not 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/30/for… #LeafsForever

Let there be no doubt: The Maple Leafs need to clean house this offseason, GM included, writes @APetrielli 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/22/the… #LeafsForever

New Leafs Notebook up - Thoughts on the Matthews incident and fallout moving forward, Bo Groulx making his case, Easton Cowan getting ice time, the goalie pipeline, the defense unit, 5 things, and lots more: mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/16/the…

Friedman went in-depth during Saturday Headlines on what he's hearing about the DoPS' Gudas decision, Treliving's push for a bigger suspension, and the ramifications the Matthews incident might have within the Leafs organization 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/15/fri… #LeafsForever

Framing this as "We're just mad because it happened to us and our guy got hurt" is just a brutal response. Round and round we go.

If much of the reason for the Leafs’ league-leading number of suspensions over the years is all the eyeballs on the team, what’s the explanation for this one: dangerous repeat offender destroys the MCL of a superstar with a flagrant knee, gets a phone hearing. Very telling.

With Matthews out for the season and Gudas suspended for just five games, will the Leafs actually stand up for their players? @APetrielli on the DoPS circus and why this is a tipping point moment for the previously mum organization to speak up 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/14/wit…

Even when the Leafs finally win a game, it's shrouded in post-game controversy over the team's character. On the Leafs’ response to Gudas, Cowan’s first fight, Groulx, point nights for Maccelli & Knies, and more after a 6-4 W over ANA 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/13/10-… #LeafsForever

"Tank and pray" mode has been activated in Toronto. There might be a logical path to a quick turnaround if the Leafs can pull off a top-five pick this season, but the alternative outlook is bleak after a disappointing deadline 👇 (via @APetrielli) mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/09/the…

After an underwhelming trade deadline, what’s the Leafs’ direction going forward? Does anyone know? @APetrielli & @NickAshbourne discuss the organization's murky future in the post-deadline podcast 🎧 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/07/mlh… #LeafsForever

Barring any late deals, it looks like the Leafs have wrapped a fairly underwhelming deadline day by fetching a conditional third-rounder in 2026 from the LA Kings for Scott Laughton. Instant analysis via @MapleLeafsHS 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/06/ins… #LeafsForever

The long-rumoured Bobby McMann trade finally happened, and the return is less than was hoped for from the Leafs’ perspective. Instant analysis via @APetrielli 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/06/ins… #LeafsForever

Trade OEL for a 1st+, then add Hamilton for free, would be good retooling work.

The best time for the 2025-26 Maple Leafs to make a coaching change was back in November, followed by every day thereafter. The next best time is now 👇 mapleleafshotstove.com/2026/03/06/gam… #LeafsForever
