When the Toronto Maple Leafs signed Paul MacLean, I immediately thought of Taylor Swift. Why? Do they look alike? Sing at a similar pitch? No, but in my mind, these two are forever linked. Rewind to Dec. 8, 2014, a day Ottawa Senators fans remember well. Maclean was unceremoniously dismissed by the Senators. The Jack […]

As all Toronto Maple Leafs fans know by now, the team is interested in signing St. Louis Blues defenseman Alex Pietrangelo.

After failing to make the round of 16 for the first time since 2016, it’s clear that the Toronto Maple Leafs are determined to shake things up this offseason.
