LEAF IT TO THE LADIES https://www.speakpipe.com/msg/s/428755/1/70vrrftg0jeql7ag
It’s our Olympic Edition, Leafs Nation
While we didn't get the results we hoped, no one can deny what a treat it was to once again experience hockey at its elite best during the Milan Cortina Olympics ice hockey tournament, where Team Canada battled through tough competition, key injuries, and high-pressure overtime moments, only to come up short. Both the men’s and women’s squads fell in OT — heartbreak, yes — but resilience on full display. We talk about what that says about Hockey Canada, leadership, and the future of the sport.
We also dive into:
- Why Sweden underwhelmed — and whether roster decisions cost them.
- The continued rise and competitiveness of women’s hockey on the world stage.
- How winning (or losing) Olympic gold impacts NHL confidence and momentum.
- The emergence of Macklin Celebrini as a future superstar.
- The smooth dominance of Cale Makar.
- Why Connor McDavid remains must-watch hockey — tournament loss or not.
Then we shift gears back to the NHL as the National Hockey League season resumes and the Toronto Maple Leafs gear up for critical matchups that could shape key decisions over the next week as we approach trade deadline day. Who benefits most from the Olympic spotlight? Who needs a reset? And what should fans expect coming out of the break? We're certainly hoping our Captain's good vibes will have a positive trickle down effect!
