It's safe to say that the Maple Leafs most recent hot streak is a thing of the past.

The guys talk about the Leafs current chances of making the playoffs, injuries to Brandon Carlo and Oliver Ekman-Larsson on the blueline and how former Maple Leaf Mitch Marner will be received when the Vegas Golden Knights play in Toronto, on Friday night.
