The Maple Leafs roll into Dallas on the second half of a back-to-back after a brutal showing in Nashville, and tonight’s matchup could mark a major turning point — or the end of the Craig Berube era. We break down every storyline from Game 35: lineup decisions, standout performances, special teams swings, goaltending choices between Joseph Woll and Dennis Hildeby, and whether this group showed any pride after last night’s collapse.From Auston Matthews and William Nylander’s response, to Easton Cowan, Matias Maccelli, Nick Robertson, Dakota Joshua, Morgan Rielly’s struggles, and lineup chaos with Philippe Myers, Max Domi and Bobby McMann — we hit all the pressure points. We’ll also react to the betting fallout and what this game means heading into the holidays.Join the chat live — fans drive the show every night.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Powered by @bet365.

Game 35 comes with a dark, gloomy cloud over the Toronto Maple Leafs. After a “piss poor” showing in Nashville, the Leafs roll into Dallas on a back-to-back looking completely lost — and it genuinely feels like this could be Craig Berube’s last game behind the bench. Tonight we break down everything from the lineup chaos, Berube’s postgame comments, and the lack of a morning skate, to which forwards actually deserve to stay in the lineup.We dig into Auston Matthews, Easton Cowan, and why Matias Maccelli must remain in the top six; the state of Matthew Knies as he battles a lower-body injury; why Dakota Joshua, Nicolas Roy, and Nick Robertson should be leaned on; how Bobby McMann and Calle Järnkrok fit; and whether Max Domi has earned his way back in.Plus: a full look at the defensive mess — Morgan Rielly’s brutal night, Philippe Myers’ struggles, Benoit vs. Thrun, and why Jake McCabe and Oliver Ekman-Larsson remain the bright spots. We also break down goaltending (Woll vs. Hildeby), and the Bet365 best bets for Leafs–Stars.Chapters:00:00 – Gloomy tone entering Game 3500:28 – Leafs stumble into Dallas after awful loss00:54 – Why no morning skate complicates everything01:19 – Berube hints at lineup changes02:20 – Reviewing last night’s lines via Daily Faceoff02:40 – Matthews–Knies–Cowan: what works, what doesn’t03:03 – Why Maccelli must stay in the lineup03:42 – Knies’ lower-body injury insight04:37 – Why Cowan belongs back with Tavares & Nylander05:49 – Robertson, Joshua, McMann & identity issues06:56 – Fourth-line confusion: Laughton, Järnkrok, Domi07:35 – Should Max Domi return?08:29 – Who actually deserves to come out09:02 – Defensive pairings breakdown09:20 – Why Philippe Myers shouldn’t play09:40 – McCabe–Stetcher and OEL–Benoit evaluations10:01 – Morgan Rielly’s rough night & defensive trend11:11 – Goaltending: Woll vs. Hildeby11:29 – Best Bet: Stars puck line13:15 – Why Dallas should roll Toronto15:08 – Robertson goal pick logic15:45 – McCabe block-shots bet17:05 – What’s next for the Leafs heading into the holidaysSHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Powered by @bet365.

Toronto Maple Leafs Game 34 preview time. Toronto heads into Nashville to face the Predators in what feels less like a “must-win” and more like a full-on do-or-die moment before Christmas. We break down the playoff math, why Auston Matthews and William Nylander need to drive the bus, why Matthew Knies, Easton Cowan and Nick Robertson are actually setting the standard, and how Dakota Joshua, Nicolas Roy and Bobby McMann can give this team a real identity line. Plus, we dig into the puzzling fourth line with Calle Jarnkrok, Scott Laughton and Matias Maccelli, a blue line featuring Morgan Rielly with Philippe Myers, and what it means to be without Chris Tanev and Brandon Carlo. We also hit the broken power play, Marc Savard’s future, and Joseph Woll going head-to-head with Juuse Saros before wrapping with our bet365 best bet of the night.SHOUTOUT TO OUR SPONSORS!!👍🏼 Powered by @bet365.
