4 weeks agoWhat can the Maple Leafs offer the Flames for Rasmus Andersson?
If the Toronto Maple Leafs and Calgary Flames pull off a trade this season, it sounds like Flames' defenceman Rasmus Andersson will be involved. TSN's Pierre LeBrun recently reported that Maple Leafs' general manager Brad Treliving has circled back to the Flames regarding their pending unrestricted free-agent blueliner, and that begs the question - what exactly do the Maple Leafs have to offer?

1 month agoCraig Berube on Matias Maccelli sitting out games as a healthy scratch: "We put him in the Washington game, and there wasn't a lot there... I thought he struggled... We won the last couple, so I'm not going to change the lineup"
He brings spirit to your team. Team spirit is really important. I believe - I don't believe; I know it - that he brings that team spirit every game. He is a great teammate and a likeable guy. He is always chatting and talking. He brings a lot to the team outside of the ice. It is important. Locker rooms are very important in this game, and he impacts the ice with his work ethic and second and third efforts out there as a player.

2 months agoCraig Berube on expectations for Matias Maccelli after a healthy scratch: "This guy is capable of doing more than he's doing"
Ekman-Larsson provides a new top power-play look; Maccelli must produce more amid forward depth and focus on consistent 60-minute play.

Perhaps no new Maple Leaf has been as inconsistent as Maccelli through the first seven games. He's gone from first line with Auston Matthews and Matthew Knies, to second line, to being demoted to the bottom six throughout the first few weeks. Maccelli is averaging 13:49 of ice-time per game, he's recorded just two points in seven games, and what's really stood out the most is his inability to manage the puck.

3 months agoProjecting a big part of Maple Leafs' Marner replacement plan
Plenty of Toronto Maple Leafs will be haunted by the name Mitch Marner, but fair or not, Matias Maccelli may inspire the most comparisons of all. Both are smallish wingers. While you should expect a mammoth gap in actual production, each forward boasts sometimes-dazzling passing skills. Critics may at times even complain that passing is too often their first, second, and last options. Heck, they both even have alliterative names starting with an "M."

3 months agoCraig Berube on whether James Reimer's PTO suggests Joseph Woll will be out for a while: "it doesn't suggest anything... It's just depth"
How well do you know James Reimer, if at all? Berube: He's an NHL goalie. He's been an NHL goalie. I have never met the guy. When do you expect Reimer to join the group? Berube: Tomorrow. Does this suggest that Joseph Woll might take a little bit longer than expected to return? Berube: No, it doesn't suggest anything. It is just depth.

4 months agoCraig Berube on evaluating Matias Maccelli's fit on Matthews' line: "Is he getting Matthews the puck enough for opportunities? That line plays against good lines, so he needs to be solid defensively, too"
First practice emphasized intense, competitive work; Maccelli must adapt quickly to Matthews-Knies pairing, make plays, make right decisions, and be defensively reliable.
