Leafs SINK to Fourth Straight Defeat—John Tavares EFFORT Praised, Nylander Criticized
The Toronto Maple Leafs drop a fourth straight game as fans’ frustration hits a boiling point. Mike DiStefano and David Morassutti scrutinize Toronto’s 4-3 overtime loss to the LA Kings, calling out inconsistent defensive efforts from William Nylander and other veterans while praising John Tavares as the lone bright spot. Turnovers and soft play in front of the net continue to haunt the Leafs, leaving coach Craig Berube searching for answers and accountability. The hosts debate the impact of recent injuries, bottom-six struggles, and shake-ups—including David Kämpf’s contract buyout. With the Leafs slipping to 25th in the NHL, key questions emerge: Can roster changes or system tweaks ignite a turnaround before American Thanksgiving? Will the upcoming showdown with Connor Bedard and the Chicago Blackhawks offer a desperately needed reset?
