The Toronto Maple Leafs blue-line has never recovered from the loss of Jake Muzzin.
And while John Klingberg's unplayability and injuries to Jake McCabe and Timothy Liljegren have been the talk of the town, the top of the Leafs blue-line depth-chart is what is hurting them the most.
While Auston Matthews and Mitch Marner are still racking up points, their results are slightly worse, and their peripheral stats are much lower than they were at any point since Sheldon Keefe took over for Mike Babcock.
