Leafs Losing Streak Grows + Raptors Fail Another Test

Ben Ennis and Brent Gunning open trade deadline Friday by recapping the Maple Leafs’ loss to the New York Rangers. The boys discuss how poor the group's effort looked, whether the team has tuned out the coach, and if Craig Berube’s future behind the bench is in doubt. They also talk about Auston Matthews’ 10-game goal-less drought and the Leafs’ ongoing difficulty fitting Easton Cowan into the lineup. The conversation shifts to Toronto trading Nic Roy to Colorado and the first-round pick sent back in return, before reflecting on his time with the team. The guys also review notable trades from around the league, including the Capitals moving on from John Carlson. After the break, they turn to the Raptors’ loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. They question the direction of the team, the sustainability of their season, and what steps are needed to improve. They close the hour with opening thoughts on the World Baseball Classic.
