Business is picking up at NHL All-Star Weekend in Toronto.
Well, not actually —but there’s already been two HUGE trades.
What are the Leafs up to? All’s quiet on the western front.
With Thursday night’s player draft now firmly in the rear-view mirror, the countdown is on to the on-ice festivities —beginning with the revamped skills competition at Scotiabank Arena on Friday night.
Firstly, how cute: Team Matthews was able to secure both William Nylander and Mitch Marner. Great scouting job by Justin Bieber!
For the second straight day, Leafs Morning Take was broadcasted LIVE from the Seagram’s VO Whisky Studio at SponsorshipX. We kicked off the show by discussing Thursday’s night festivities —both at the player draft and on the bar scene. Everything. Is. Happening. This. Weekend.
After that, presented by Door Dash, we were fortunate enough to have AEW’s Adam Copeland drop by the set. The WWE Hall of Famer is a massive Leafs fan. He’s been on with us a few times before. It was a really fun conversation. We covered a bunch of different things.
Meantime, thanks to the Wendy’s Daily Faceoff Survivor, NHL Insider from Daily Faceoff Frank Seravalli stopped by. We discussed everything from the Sean Monahan trade to the Todd McLellan firing to what Brad Treliving could be up to over the next few weeks. REMINDER: The trade deadline is on March 8th.
Lastly, we wrapped things up from SponsorshipX. It was such a great time. Thanks to all our great sponsors (Seagram’s, Wendy’s, DoorDash, Charm Diamond, Douglas, Batl Axe) for making it all possible.
That’s it for us from All-Star. We’ll be back with you on Monday as the Leafs return from their break to host the New York Islanders.
