Bobby McMann "definitely" wants to stay in Toronto as early contract talks with Maple Leafs begin:

Groin injury for William Nylander, per Craig Berube. “I’m not sure when he’s going to be on the ice.” Maple Leafs have nine games in next 16 games, and Sweden’s Olympic tournament begins in 24 days.

Auston Matthews took the Maple Leafs on his back in Saturday’s win over the Jets. For the Leafs’ playoff hopes to stay alive, he’ll need to keep it up. From Winnipeg:

Does another Luke Schenn reunion make sense for the Maple Leafs? Spoke to the defenceman about his future in Winnipeg before Maple Leafs-Jets tonight:

Maple Leafs lineup news tonight against the Jets: Dennis Hildeby starts. Calle Jarnkrok in the lineup. No Simon Benoit. Craig Berube said William Nylander is not only out of the lineup tonight but also unlikely for Monday’s game against the Wild.

“I mean this: he’s a man of no fear.” Waiver wire claims usually don’t help turn seasons around. But that’s exactly what Troy Stecher has done in Toronto. A long read on the remarkable story of the undrafted defenceman, now a Maple Leafs cult hero:

Scott Laughton, man. His unreal performance last night against his old team was a reminder: Laughton has become the player the Maple Leafs need him to be.

Early word is that Canada centre back Alfie Jones will be out a couple months after surgery. His World Cup is not believed to be in jeopardy. #CANMNT (📸: Jones’ IG)

Maple Leafs injury updates from Craig Berube today: · Jake McCabe out a week with "lower body injury" · Surgery “possible” for Chris Tanev, evaluated this week · William Nylander “day-to-day” · Brandon Carlo could play tomorrow · Dakota Joshua has a lacerated kidney, no timeline

The Maple Leafs have a new all-time goal scoring leader: Auston Matthews has scored 421 goals in just 664 games.

With five goals in his last four games, Auston Matthews has now tied Mats Sundin for most goals in Maple Leafs history. (420)

Former Canada head coach John Herdman has officially been announced as Indonesia's next head coach. Why the move makes sense for Herdman, and what he can bring to Indonesia at @theathleticfc.bsky.social #CANMNT

Nick Robertson had another one of the best games of his Maple Leafs career in last night’s win over the Devils. So when will he start seeing more ice time?

Victor Johansson was not expected to play at the world juniors. But as he's done through his career, the Maple Leafs prospect came out of nowhere to make a Sweden team with gold medal hopes. What the world juniors can do for Johansson's Leafs future:

“It’s nice to bring in a new voice and a different perspective.” The Maple Leafs sagging power play scored two goals last night under new coaches. Could a revamped power play change the course of the season?

Accountability was supposed to be a hallmark of Craig Berube's Maple Leafs. But instead, players have yet to produce or take responsibility in front of the cameras through an ugly season. Now with Marc Savard's firing, will that finally change?

Why the Maple Leafs fired Marc Savard, and what comes next:

The Maple Leafs have fired assistant coach Marc Savard. The Leafs power play went 0-for-10 over their most recent three-game road trip.

“I don’t know if I’ve felt like this before.” The Maple Leafs go 0-3 on their road trip with just four goals scored. Bewildering times for blue and white:

“I don’t know if I’ve felt like this before.” In a season full of bad, the Maple Leafs can now add bad luck to the list. But that won’t save them from the Eastern Conference basement, which is where they still sit.

The vibes around this Maple Leafs team have never felt lower after last night’s loss in Nashville. They’re now stuck in a dangerous spot: malaise over the rest of the season might be kicking in.

Max Domi will not play for the Maple Leafs tonight. That and more on the Leafs lineup changes against the Predators:

"God-awful." "Ask those guys, not me." "It’s one thing to talk about it, it’s another thing to do it." The Maple Leafs appear to have hit the low point of their season, and their awful power play woes are a big reason why. From Washington:

“Ask those guys, not me.” The Maple Leafs dreadful power play — among other things — is sinking their year. Craig Berube sounds off in the middle of a season that’s slipping away:

The Maple Leafs can’t afford to keep playing with fire after a comeback win over the Blackhawks:

What the Maple Leafs are doing to get Auston Matthews’ season on track:

Maple Leafs lines at practice: Knies-Matthews-Nylander McMann-Tavares-Robertson Joshua-Roy-Domi Lorentz-Laughton-Cowan Jarnkrok Maccelli (Out with illness) Ekman-Larsson-Tanev McCabe-Stecher Rielly-Benoit Thrun-Myers Woll Hildeby

Once Oliver Ekman-Larsson went down with a potentially catastrophic injury, the Maple Leafs allowed the Sharks back into the game. On the repercussions of the injury and what went into the Leafs loss:

A massive day for Canada's forwards in the Champions League: Jonathan David scores for Juventus and Tani Oluwaseyi scores his first Champions League goal for Villarreal. The kind of day that should give Jesse Marsch serious confidence about any #CANMNT goal scoring concerns.

Dennis Hildeby's emergence as an NHL-ready goalie leaves the Maple Leafs with questions, and real options for the rest of the season:

When was it clear 18-year-old Tinus Luc Koblar would make a successful jump to professional hockey? “The first game he played.” Inside the Maple Leafs prospect's remarkable start to his SHL season, and when he could move to North America:

A blown third period lead in Washington. Zero regulation wins in their last 10 games. A team that hasn’t improved from last season. The Maple Leafs need to change, and fast:

The Maple Leafs clearly need some kind of change. What can they do? From Washington:

William Nylander won’t play tonight for the Maple Leafs due to illness.

Could today bring more notable changes to the Maple Leafs lineup?

Joseph Woll showed he is one of the few Maple Leafs who can steal games on his own. Now, can he turn their tide of the Leafs season? From Columbus:

The Maple Leafs upcoming road trip could define their season:

“They have to ride the wave.” Wayne Gretzky met with Canada’s national team last night, and sees parallels between them and the 1987 Canada Cup team. I went 1-on-1 with Gretzky on #CANMNT, the World Cup and his budding friendship with Jesse Marsch, at @theathleticfc.bsky.social

Wayne Gretzky is in attendance for Canada's men's national team's friendly against Venezuela in Fort Lauderdale. The NHL legend is expected to speak to #CANMNT and offer support before kickoff. Details at @theathleticfc.bsky.social

Alfie Jones will be eligible to play for Canada tomorrow, per Jesse Marsch. #CANMNT
