The Four Big Stories From Leafs Camp w/ James Mirtle
About this episode
JD reacts to the results from the first day of postseason baseball, including Tarik Skubal's dominant performance for the Tigers and the comeback by the Red Sox to beat the Yankees, before giving his ranking of the best playoffs in sports (00:00). James Mirtle, senior writer at The Athletic, joins JD to discuss the Maple Leafs' offseason and training camp news with real games just a week away (9:44). They get into the expectations for this group after losing Mitch Marner, Auston Matthews' health and ability to shoot the puck at an elite level, Anthony Stolarz' contract extension with Joseph Woll's continued absence, Easton Cowan likely breaking camp with the Leafs on the fourth line to start the season, and the tough decisions to be made with the bottom six. After the break, JD looks at the latest chapter in the Kawhi Leonard cap circumvention reports after he spoke on the subject at the Clippers' media day (46:33).
