Good morning Maple Leafs fans!

The NHL season begins today, but the Maple Leafs have one more day to wait before tomorrow nights home opener.

Tonight there are three games to get you excited for the return of the game we love and the league that frustrates us:

5:30PM - Nashville Predators at Tampa Bay Lightning

8:00PM - Chicago at Pittsburgh Penguins

10:30PM - Seattle Kraken at Vegas Golden Knights

I really think the NHL should kick off the season with a Stanley Cup Final rematch in the winners rink. Just make the losers watch the banner get raised. Kick off the season with some hate.

The Maple Leafs have made their roster official to start the season and some questions arise, but things may change today or early tomorrow ahead of the opener.

A couple former (and a current) Leafs get off-ice jobs.

The Winnipeg Jets\* have us scratching our heads with these signings.

The NHL continues to NHL

Well. Now that they have a player making eight figures, the Sabres will never win a cup.
