Former NHL President and GM Doug MacLean (2:25) joins Nick Kypreos and Justin Bourne to weigh in on how the Toronto Maple Leafs aren't playing as a team through their tough stretch, if it's possible to change the 'culture' mid-way through the season without firing the head coach, the similarities how the year has unfolded for the Leafs and Edmonton Oilers, and why Jim Rutherford is avoiding the word 'rebuild'. Then, Nick, Justin and Sam McKee look at the status of the 2026 Winter Olympics' rink and the concerns from the NHL before heading to the text line for some Q&A!
