The Hockey Writers Maple Leafs Lounge crew of Peter Baracchini and Shane Seney get together to discuss Timo Meier as a major trade target, Ilya Samsonov as the clear-cut starter over Matt Murray, Auston Matthews starting to heat up, and the emerging depth with Pontus Holmberg and Bobby McMann.
Then in the quick-fire segment, they talk about the possibility of hiring Bruce Boudreau and whether Matthew Knies will sign his entry-level contract and see meaningful minutes in the top-six or third line toward the end of the season.
