Leafs Hour: Buds Catch the Injury Bug

Real Kyper & Bourne

Nick Kypreos, Justin Bourne and Sam McKee start with a look ahead at the Leafs' first encounter with the Devils this season. They get status updates on Marner, Samsonov, Rielly and Edmundson - the pair quietly dealing with tweaks. How careful should the Leafs be with their injuries down the stretch? Then, what the team needs to focus on ahead of the playoffs - the battle in net, staying motivated, solidifying lineup combinations and Matthews' hunt for 70. Finally, Devils GM Tom Fitzgerald (29:57) sets the stage for their critical game against the Leafs tonight, underlying reasons for New Jersey's disappointing season, long-term plans in goal and Timo Meier finally starting to settle in.
