You can bet on the talk and rumours of Maple Leafs trades starting up quickly after taking a back seat to the Raptors today.

They can still make deals on the floor, and could both trade up in the process. You never know! Before that, we have the ever exciting NHL Awards on Wednesday! I’m sure all of you will tune in for that. There will in fact be a quiz about the show on Thursday’s FTB. Your PPP membership will be voided if you don’t pass it!
