Leafs Hour: Are Changes Needed Already?

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee break down the Maple Leafs' season-opening loss to the Canadiens, why there were still plenty of positives, and the standout debuts from Kirill Marchenko and Gavin McKenna. They discuss whether Marchenko is already Toronto's most impactful player, McKenna's rocky first NHL game, concerns about his size and usage, and if changes are needed on the power play and blue line, including the Morgan Rielly-Darren Raddysh pairing. Later, Cal Clutterbuck joins the show (36:35) to share his thoughts on shortened preseasons, the state of the Islanders, Matthew Barzal's health, and tonight's Leafs-Islanders matchup.
