William Morrow+FollowStolarz Speaks Out on Bennett CollisionLeafs Nation, did you catch Anthony Stolarz’s candid comments about that brutal Game 1 collision with the Panthers’ Sam Bennett? The Big Stolie confirmed he suffered a concussion that ended his playoff run, but he insists there was no bad blood—just a tough break in a fast game. Stolarz was having a career year, leading the league in save percentage, so losing him was a huge blow. Thoughts on how this changed the series? #LeafsNation #Stolarz #NHLPlayoffs #GoLeafsGo #HockeyTalk #Sports10Share
stacy28+FollowIs Magic Mitch Leaving Leafs Nation?Big news out of Leafs Nation: while Captain Johnny and Knies are all-in on staying, Magic Mitch Marner is keeping his cards close to the chest. After a career-best 102-point season, Marner dodged questions about re-signing, saying it’s too soon to think about the future. Could this be the end of an era for our homegrown star? What do you think—will Marner bolt, or is this just post-playoff emotion? #LeafsNation #MitchMarner #NHLFreeAgency #HockeyTalk #Sports00Share
Martha Garza+FollowLeafs Eye Brock Nelson: Big Changes Ahead?Looks like the Buds are gearing up for a serious shakeup after another tough playoff exit. With Captain JT's future in question and Marner possibly on the move, NHL insider Pagnotta says Toronto could target Brock Nelson as a new center option. Nelson’s size and playoff grit might be just what the Leafs need to finally get over the hump. Do you think Nelson’s the missing piece, or is this just the start of a bigger rebuild? #LeafsNation #NHLFreeAgency #BrockNelson #Tavares #HockeyTalk #Sports20Share
Sherri West+FollowShould the Leafs Move On from Rielly?Big shakeup talk in Leafs Nation! After another tough playoff exit, Sportsnet’s JD Bunkis says it’s time for Morgan Rielly—the blue line’s longtime anchor—to be the next big name out the door. Rielly’s numbers dipped this year, and with Toronto’s cap space and hunger for change, could the Rielly era really be ending? He’s got a no-move clause, but pressure’s mounting. What do you think—time for a fresh start or does Rielly deserve another shot in blue and white? #LeafsNation #NHL #MorganRielly #TradeRumors #HockeyTalk #Sports00Share
William Morrow+FollowShould the Leafs Keep Marner & JT Together?After the Leafs’ tough Game 7 loss to the Cats, Coach Berube made it clear—he’s all-in on bringing Magic Mitch and Captain JT back next season. With both hitting free agency, it’s a huge question: can Toronto keep their Core Four intact, or will cap crunch force a breakup? Berube’s confidence is great, but it’s up to management now. What do you think—should the Leafs pay up to keep the band together, or is it time for a shakeup? #LeafsNation #Marner #Tavares #NHLFreeAgency #CoreFour #Sports00Share
Molly Tucker+FollowStolarz Speaks Out: Was Bennett’s Elbow Dirty?Leafs Nation, what do you make of Stolarz finally clearing the air on his concussion? He says it was definitely Sam Bennett’s elbow—not that earlier shot to the mask—that knocked him out of the series. No shade thrown at Bennett, but fans are still split: was it just playoff intensity, or did the Panthers cross a line? Either way, losing our starter in Game 1 stings, especially after another tough Game 7 exit. Let’s hear your takes on the Bennett-Stolarz incident! #LeafsNation #Stolarz #NHLPlayoffs #Panthers #HockeyTalk #Sports01Share
Bryce Clark+FollowLeafs’ Goalie Carousel: First Time Since ’81!Wow, Leafs Nation, did you ever expect to see three different goalies in one playoff series? That’s a first since 1981! After Joseph Woll struggled and got pulled in Game 5’s blowout loss to the Cats, Matt Murray (yes, the ex-Pens Cup winner) stepped in. The Panthers’ Sergei Bobrovsky is outshining all our netminders, and with the series on the line, the goalie debate is hotter than ever. Can the Buds bounce back in Game 6, or is history repeating itself? #LeafsNation #StanleyCupPlayoffs #Bobrovsky #NHL #GoLeafsGo #Sports00Share
Phillip Scott+FollowLeafs Jersey Toss: End of the Core Four Era?Is this the breaking point for Leafs Nation? After the Cats ran wild in Game 5, frustrated fans tossed jerseys—one with Papi’s (Auston Matthews) name—onto the ice. With the Panthers now up 3-2, Toronto’s Core Four era could be on its last legs. If Marner or JT walk this summer, is it time for a full reset? Or do you still believe this group can get it done? #LeafsNation #NHLPlayoffs #CoreFour #Panthers #Sports00Share
Christopher Li+FollowPanthers Lose Key Forward for Game 5Tough break for the Cats as Evan Rodrigues is out for Game 5 after that big hit from OEL. Rodrigues has been clutch in the playoffs, especially last year during the Cup run. Now Boqvist gets another shot in the top six. Can the Panthers rally in Toronto without their gritty winger, or will the Leafs take advantage? This lineup change could swing the series! #FlaPanthers #LeafsNation #StanleyCupPlayoffs #NHL #Sports00Share
stacy28+FollowBarkov Shrugs Off Domi’s HitDid anyone else catch Barkov’s ice-cold response after Domi’s late-game cheap shot? “I didn’t see it,” he said, totally unfazed. With the Panthers and Leafs already trading barbs—Tkachuk even calling out Nylander—Game 5 is shaping up to be a war. Domi only got a fine, no suspension, so expect fireworks. Are the Cats ready to answer back, or will Toronto use this as fuel? #NHLPlayoffs #LeafsNation #TimeToHunt #Barkov #MaxDomi #Sports00Share
