Talkin' The Giordano Effect, Questionable Reffing and Prepping for the Playoffs
We are in the final month of the NHL’s regular season and it’s hard to believe we are closing in on the completion of our first full 82-game season of the podcast and the best is yet to come!
The Leafs are on a bit of a roll coming out of the trade deadline and the additions of Mark Giordano and Colin Blackwell have been positive! In this episode we talk about the Giordano effect on the Leafs blueline. We are also blowing the whistle on the referees, and agree with Darcy Tucker that former Leaf coach Pat Quinn would not be happy at all with the refs! On a positive, the Leafs are leading the league in shorthanded goals and the player who leads the team in scoring shorty’s has made our LTL Highlight Reel! Tune in to find out who that player is!
Over the past few weeks there have also been a lot of impressive stats, including the obvious one of Auston Matthews joining the 50-goal club. Mitch Marner hit a career high in goals and now has 28 goals and counting. The Ladies talk about the Leafs dynamic duo and we also have a few thoughts on their best bud Justin Bieber!
We wrap up the show with some pre-playoff talk. What concerns the Ladies going into the playoffs? What team do we hope the Leafs face in the first round of the playoffs? Listen to the show to get our thoughts on these questions and a lot more!
The Atlantic Division standings are really tight and with just over 10 games remaining we are hoping the Leafs can get home ice in the playoffs. This final month of the regular season is going to be fun and for Leafs Nation the playoffs are what we’ve all been waiting for! The Ladies are excited to get you ready for the stretch drive. Go Leafs Go!
