On this week's episode, the boys discuss the Leafs most recent play, going 4-2-2 since the last show. They key in on how the team is trending in the wrong direction and take a look at the remaining schedule before the Olympic break.

They also cover player injuries, the Dougie Hamilton trade rumors, and Mitch Marner's return to Toronto as a Golden Knight.

The Bleedin’ Blue & White crew kicks off 2026 trying to make sense of a Toronto team that somehow looks flawed, confusing, and red-hot at the same time. Corey, Nick, and Jack break down the Leafs’ strong 5-0-2 run, debate whether the wins are masking deeper issues, and dive into the unexpected edge and physicality showing up in the bottom of the lineup. From hustle and body checks to old-school toughness and uncomfortable truths about what “making a difference” really means, this episode asks the big question Leafs fans can’t stop wrestling with: Is this team actually changing… or just winning for now?

They also discuss Auston Matthews breaking records, the Winter Classic, and take a long look at the teams the Leafs face leading up to the Olympic break.

In this Christmas Spectacular edition of Bleedin’ Blue & White, Corey is joined by Nick, Jack, Peter, and Joel to break down the growing frustration surrounding the Toronto Maple Leafs as the season winds toward the holidays.

The crew debates whether the team’s issues stem from effort, execution, or a deeper lack of identity, with pointed discussion around the top six, coaching direction, and a fan base that’s clearly losing patience. Rising ticket prices, empty seats at Scotiabank Arena, and comparisons to the passion surrounding the Blue Jays and Raptors only add fuel to the fire.

Along the way, the conversation veers into Olympic concerns, Canadian hockey identity, and a few classic side tangents—because it wouldn’t be Bleedin’ Blue & White without them. The episode closes with holiday wishes, cautious optimism, and the shared hope that something finally clicks before more damage is done.
