Could the Edmonton Oilers capitalize on a flailing Toronto Maple Leafs team ahead of the trade deadline this season?

The Toronto Maple Leafs concluded what was a rotten five-game homestead with an 0-4-1 record that also saw them slip to second-to-last place in the tightly packed Atlantic Division standings.Their latest setback was a 7-4 frustrating final against the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday evening,

Nylander's press box gesture summarizes the Leafs' season quite well

During a pregame press conference, Sittler shared a special story about his late wife, Wendy, who died in 2001 after a battle with cancer. The Maple Leafs legend said after his wife’s passing he found her ticket stubs from the 10-point game and had them framed. Recently, he took a closer look at the tickets and discovered something special.

The NHL fined Maple Leafs star William Nylander $5,000 for flipping his middle finger to a broadcast camera that was shown on-air during the game broadcast of a Sunday matinee.

The Maple Leafs also sent defensemen Henry Thrun and Dakota Mermis to the minors. This isn't Rifai's first stint with the Maple Leafs this campaign, but he hasn't drawn into an NHL game in 2025-26. The 27-year-old does have four assists and 23 PIM across 12 outings with AHL Toronto this season.

As the players were resting in the second intermission, Maple Leafs publicity director Stan Obodiac busted into the dressing room and told Sittler that he was just one point shy of the then-NHL record of eight, held at the time by Montreal Canadiens great Maurice “Rocket” Richard.

Unlike his predecessor as captain, John Tavares, Matthews isn’t often seated at his dressing room stall when media enter, making more formal or informal conversations difficult. And if he has spoken to the group the day before a game, for instance, Matthews sometimes isn’t made available to speak again the following morning.
