In this episode of the Bleedin Blue & White Podcast, Corey, Nick, Pete react just hours after the NHL trade deadline and try to process what it means for the Toronto Maple Leafs and the rest of the 2025–2026 season.

What starts as a normal episode quickly turns into a mix of frustration, disbelief, and reluctant acceptance as the hosts break down the Leafs’ quiet deadline and the tough reality facing the team down the stretch. With a difficult remaining schedule and the possibility of missing the playoffs for the first time in a decade, Corey and Nick talk through the emotions of being a long-time Leafs fan when expectations don’t meet reality.

Along the way, they debate whether the front office did enough at the deadline, look ahead at the brutal slate of games still to come, and try to decide if there’s any realistic path forward this season—or if fans should begin preparing for a disappointing finish.

Despite the frustration, the episode still brings the usual mix of humor, sarcasm, and fan therapy that defines the show.

The episode closes with a shoutout to Jack and the St. John Fisher Cardinals men's ice hockey as they head to Jacksonville for the national tournament.

Another emotional ride for Leafs fans—and another honest conversation about what it means to bleed blue and white.

This week, Nick & Corey review the Leafs play down the stretch leading up to the Olympic break, discuss what is the best plan on action leading up to the trade deadline, and make their Mens Hockey Olympic Gold picks.

On this week's episode, the boys discuss the Leafs most recent play, going 4-2-2 since the last show. They key in on how the team is trending in the wrong direction and take a look at the remaining schedule before the Olympic break.

They also cover player injuries, the Dougie Hamilton trade rumors, and Mitch Marner's return to Toronto as a Golden Knight.

The Bleedin’ Blue & White crew kicks off 2026 trying to make sense of a Toronto team that somehow looks flawed, confusing, and red-hot at the same time. Corey, Nick, and Jack break down the Leafs’ strong 5-0-2 run, debate whether the wins are masking deeper issues, and dive into the unexpected edge and physicality showing up in the bottom of the lineup. From hustle and body checks to old-school toughness and uncomfortable truths about what “making a difference” really means, this episode asks the big question Leafs fans can’t stop wrestling with: Is this team actually changing… or just winning for now?

They also discuss Auston Matthews breaking records, the Winter Classic, and take a long look at the teams the Leafs face leading up to the Olympic break.

In this Christmas Spectacular edition of Bleedin’ Blue & White, Corey is joined by Nick, Jack, Peter, and Joel to break down the growing frustration surrounding the Toronto Maple Leafs as the season winds toward the holidays.

The crew debates whether the team’s issues stem from effort, execution, or a deeper lack of identity, with pointed discussion around the top six, coaching direction, and a fan base that’s clearly losing patience. Rising ticket prices, empty seats at Scotiabank Arena, and comparisons to the passion surrounding the Blue Jays and Raptors only add fuel to the fire.

Along the way, the conversation veers into Olympic concerns, Canadian hockey identity, and a few classic side tangents—because it wouldn’t be Bleedin’ Blue & White without them. The episode closes with holiday wishes, cautious optimism, and the shared hope that something finally clicks before more damage is done.

Corey and Nick are back with another episode of all things Toronto Maple Leafs! They kick things off joking about their semi-monthly… monthly-ish? schedule as hockey and the holidays collide, but promise more regular episodes ahead.

The conversation gets rolling with the Leafs’ recent surge — 5-1-1 in their last 7 — and how improved goaltending has helped turn the tide. The boys break down upcoming matchups, debate when backup starts should happen, and caution against overworking the starter as the season gets heavier.

They wrap by teasing their annual Christmas Spectacular, hoping to bring back Pete along with their fully-Canadian brother Joel for holiday chaos and tradition.

In this episode of the Bleedin Blue & White Podcast, Corey and Nick hold down the fort while Jack is “on assignment” and Pete extends his nearly year-long streak of technical difficulties. The show opens with some lighthearted banter about baseball withdrawal before turning to the NHL news dominating the week: the Edmonton Oilers’ shocking collapse.

Corey and Nick break down Edmonton’s blowout loss to Buffalo and the ongoing chaos surrounding a team with sky-high expectations. They debate whether Connor McDavid—despite having three years left on his deal—could eventually demand a move if the Oilers continue spiraling, especially if another failed season pushes the franchise to desperation at the trade deadline.

The boys then turn to the Leafs woes. Coaching speculation follows, with Nick floating the idea of Pete DeBoer as a potential turnaround option. This launches the duo into a fun hypothetical: a Toronto–Carolina conference final featuring two teams with historically bizarre playoff luck. Between DeBoer’s rough Game 7 record and Carolina’s streak of conference final sweeps, they joke that maybe two curses could finally cancel each other out.

The episode winds down with more Blue Jays longing, Ernie Clement jersey talk, and reflections on the excitement of the previous baseball season. Corey closes the show with thanks, optimism for future episodes, and the traditional rallying cry.

This week, Nick & Corey return, hat in hand, apologizing for not publishing a show the entire first month of the season. The problem is, you see, that the miracle run of the Toronto Blue Jays has overshadowed the slow start of the Leafs and captured both the country and all of sports.

The boys grade the teams first 11 games, take a look ahead at the next five, and wonder if they will be middle of the pack all season.

GO JAYS GO.
