    Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill caught up with Bo Groulx for an in-depth conversation as the Marlies gear up for the playoffs. Groulx kicks things off with a status check on the team before reflecting on his emotional NHL call-up earlier this season — including who he called first and what the moment meant after nearly 700 days between games.

Groulx also opens up about being sent back down for roster management reasons, sharing how the organization handled the conversation and his mindset moving forward.


    The discussion also touches on Easton Cowan’s expected arrival for the Marlies’ playoff run, as well as the growth of goaltenders Dennis Hildeby and Artur Akhtyamov. Groulx reflects on his relationship with his father, Benoit, and the impact he’s had on his career, plus details from the team’s mentors trip and how things left off with the Leafs.

  • Gord Stellick Interview
    Jan 30 2026

    Former Maple Leafs GM and longtime NHL broadcaster Gord Stellick joined Nick Alberga and Jay Rosehill to break down the current state of the Leafs. Stellick opened with his reaction to the loss in Seattle and his surprise at where this team finds itself right now. From there, the conversation turned to the blame game—and whether everything should be on the table, including the possibility of moving one of the core players like William Nylander or Auston Matthews. The guys also dove into the trade deadline, Brad Treliving’s future, and put Gord back in the GM’s chair, asking what his first move would be if he were running the team again. The episode wraps up with a discussion on the direction of the organization, Stellick’s belief that the Leafs can retool and bounce back next season, and where MLSE President Keith Pelley fits into all of it.

  • Leafs Leave Akhtyamov Out to Dry, Face “Must-Lose” Showdown vs. Florida ft. Doug MacLean
    Apr 10 2026

    Nick Alberga & Jay Rosehill break down another rough night for the Toronto Maple Leafs, who dropped a 5-3 decision on Long Island despite a valiant 39-save effort from rookie netminder Artur Akhtyamov in his first NHL start. The guys discuss how the Leafs once again left their goalie out to dry and what it says about the current state of this team.


    Looking ahead, they tee up a massive (and ironic) showdown against the Florida Panthers on Saturday — with both teams tied in points and sitting sixth-last in the NHL standings, the lottery implications couldn’t be bigger.


    Plus, former NHL head coach and GM Doug MacLean stops by to share his unfiltered thoughts on this struggling Leafs squad and where things go from here.
