3 Maple Leafs that won't be on the team by November

With the Toronto Maple Leafs struggling to start the 2025-26 NHL season, they will need to find a way to turn things around soon before it's too late. Whether it be tinkering with the everyday lineup, promoting or demoting players, or even potentially making external moves to make the team better, the Leafs definitely need to try something to get them out of their funk. As a result, which Maple Leafs players could see their hold on a roster spot in jeopardy in the coming weeks? Let's take a look at three candidates that likely won't survive the roster by November.

Blame game, Scott Laughton skating, and Marlie matters: Leaflets

The season is still young but also isn't nothing and whether you feel the Leafs will be fine or not is somewhat irrelevant. What matters is that this doesn't look like a club that is attempting to prove that they can do even better without Mitch Marner. Matias Maccelli, Nicolas Roy, and Dakota Joshua haven't taken steps back from their 2024-25 downturns, and Anthony Stolarz' save percentage points to a club that is witnessing their PDO bubble burst.

Woll was granted the leave of absence on September 23 and has been away from the team since. Maple Leafs general manager Brad Treliving met with reporters at the Ford Performance Centre on September 23 to address Woll's leave, and did not provide a timeline for his return.

Maple Leafs' Morgan Rielly out Friday vs. Sabres, could return Saturday

Rielly was already considered questionable for Friday's game, dealing with an injury he had suffered on Tuesday against the New Jersey Devils. No details have been given on what Rielly is dealing with, nor its severity. That being said, considering he played the full game Tuesday, skated Friday, and is still a possibility for Saturday, there's good reason to believe it's nothing too serious and the Leafs are just being cautious.

Here's how the new Maple Leafs have fared through first 7 games

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.

Is it time to rewrite the Maple Leafs' lineup card?

There needs to be some real accountability regarding the lineup card and some significant changes need to be made where things are clearly not working. I've alluded to some of these issues previously. Max Domi is at best a hot mess and it's a tough sell to say he belongs in an NHL lineup the way he's playing. The same can be said for Nick Robertson, Dakota Joshua, and Brandon Carlo.

Maple Leafs give good news regarding injured forward

Laughton has had rotten luck since being acquired by the Leafs from the Philadelphia Flyers at last season's trade deadline. The 31-year-old forward was not able to adjust to coming back to his hometown and just before training camp a couple months ago, he had to explain why his time in Toronto has gone so poorly so far. With hope that he could turn it around and really be a stabilizing force down in the Leafs' bottom six, there was general optimism heading into the season.

Auston Matthews says Leafs are still chasing consistency after loss to Devils

"I think it's a little bit of everything," Matthews said. "It's attitude and commitment from us to take care of the puck in certain situations, certain parts of the game. The second period's been a bit of a struggle for us lately. I think a lot of it just comes down to execution: being mentally focused and executing out there. We've shown flashes of it, but it has to be throughout the whole 60 minutes."

4 takeaways from Leafs-Devils: Jack Hughes dominates, rush defence collapses, Berube tired of experimenting

Jack Hughes is one of the most dynamic players in the NHL and he submitted a dominant effort, capping off his hat-trick with an empty-net goal, as 30 seconds remained on the clock. Hughes used his tremendous speed to great effect and he crushed the Maple Leafs with the totality of his skill set. Toronto made it easy at times: Hughes walked in without much resistance for his first goal of the contest, wiring a shot cleanly past Anthony Stolarz.

Coming back to Toronto, you know this Leafs team very well. What do you expect out of them? Lambert: They're a dynamic hockey team with tremendous individual skill. They don't need a lot of opportunities to put the puck in the net. They're dangerous. Watching them play the Rangers, they played fast. They're just a good hockey team that is solid top to bottom. They've got a defense core and good goaltending. Good team.

All of these points came in the Leafs ' 7-4 victory over the Nashville Predators on Tuesday, October 14th. This performance earned him the second star. It's the type of performance we were used to seeing from vintage Ekman-Larsson. Going into this season, not much was expected of Ekman-Larsson.

I called a timeout; our intensity level wasn't where it needed to be, but the guys responded, which was good. Overall, it was a pretty good game with a lot of good things. It's a back-to-back game.
