The Leafs play twice, once on Saturday and once on Sunday. Information on streaming will be posted when we have it, but the Jets are streaming on their channels as well as the hosts, and the Leafs will try. They always do try. Todd Crocker should be on air once they manage to get on air.

And finally Justin Bourne is back with some real talk on the new Leafs team. 

[Analyzing the Maple Leafs’ off-season: Better team, bigger questionsThe Maple Leafs went through some big changes over the summer, and come back a different team that should be better. Still, big questions hang over how it will come together, which Justin Bourne explores.![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/icon/sn_favicon-feeb8666-760d-4f68-9482-fab69162fb42.ico)Sportsnet.caJustin Bourne![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/34/01/3401a938-f468-4c02-a227-9bc4cc09bad4/content/images/thumbnail/Lefas-be592199-425d-4ae7-870d-80f39c516abb.jpg)](https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/analyzing-the-maple-leafs-off-season-better-team-bigger-questions/?ref=pensionplanpuppets.com)

Have a great Friday. Hockey tomorrow!
