One of the best leaf pods

Great analysis every time
Mayeday77

Solid pod

Good balance of basic big-picture analysis and analytics. Maybe not as entertaining as the pods with big-name ex-NHLers, but you’re not gonna hear someone on this pod making absurd suggestions like the need for more fights in practice etc.

Exceptional Analysis

Glad to see another very high quality Leafs podcast. Great, thoughtful, informative dialogue throughout. This ranks right up there with Leafs Geeks and The Leaf Report.
