Jonas and James welcome The Athletic's newest teammate, NHL insider Chris Johnston. The guys breakdown the Maple Leafs first three games, including a disappointing 4-1 home ice loss to Chicago on Monday night. The trio critique the strong play of Auston Matthews and William Nylander, the progression of rookies Fraser Minton, Matthew Knies and Joseph Woll, the lack of secondary offence, overall team defence struggles and the five game road trip which begins on Thursday in Florida.
